Issue: Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account

Complaint:
Hi, I write to you, because I have ran out of options. I have tried contacting Coinbase over 9 times via email and over there XXXX customer support. They have a telephone number but its completely useless. There customer service is the worst Ive ever seen. They are a cryptocurrency exchange company, one of the biggest in the world, but in my opinion they are committing fraud on hundreds of people. And they get away with it because of there terrible customer service. I started investing with them in XX/XX/XXXX, I invested in XXXX and XXXX currency. I have invested over {$1000.00} with them, but on XX/XX/XXXX, I traveled to XXXX for vacation, and all I did was open there app to check the value of my coins, and pfff just like that, as soon as I arrive to the states which was on XX/XX/XXXX, they had blocked my account because of my travel to XXXX. Account has been blocked for 2 months, and there is no help in sight. They always come back with the same response, we are working on it with a specialist. Really?? For 2 months?? This a multi million dollar company, and what they are doing is fraud. I have over {$1000.00} invested and in XXXX day they stoled it from me. its not right. It does not take 2 months to unlock some ones account, for something so stupid like traveling to XXXX. and like me, there are hundreds of people, and the only people getting there account open are people filing a lawsuit. I ask for you help, because I guess im a small fish in a large pond, and I do n't know what else to do, besides filing a lawsuit or traveling to XXXX XXXX and knocking on there door. The current value of my currency are close to the {$1500.00} mark. It fluctuates on a daily bases. All I want is my account to reopen and I have access to it. I understand you guys are extremely busy, but I beg of you for your help. 
Thank you

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Confusing or misleading advertising or marketing

Complaint:
On Saturday XX/XX/2022 I was looking to purchase a watch online for my anniversary. I noticed the vendor accepted PayPal credit and I chose to explore that avenue for payment. I went through the application process and signed up for PayPal service where I was approved for a {$2000.00} line of credit with PayPal credit and proceeded to try to use the credit for the purchase. Here is the deceptive part. I was immediately declined and in fact my PayPal account was temporarily suspended for suspicious activity, and all I did was try to make a transaction. After getting a confirmation call from PayPal credit confirming I was making the transaction the account was still locked out. Monday XX/XX/2022 I was able to speak to a PayPal representative and restore the account but I was never able to make a purchase since the option to use my PayPal credit was not available. I spoke to several people online and on the phone trying to resolve the issue but PayPal just blamed PayPal XXXX XXXX XXXX bank ) and PayPal credit blamed PayPal. I finally got a representative with PayPal to tell me the PayPal security algorithm is what is blocking me from using the credit option but no one can tell me why. Finally using PayPal 's own community feature I found out that in most cases a new PayPal account will never be able to use PayPal credit option because the account is too new, and the system which can not be overridden must see transaction traffic on the account other than the PayPal credit up-to a certain amount before the option to use the PayPal credit is released. I have since requested a closure of my account since this was not disclosed in their fine print and that whole reason for this complain is PayPal credit has run my credit like this was a real credit card when in fact it is not, and that was not disclosed to me.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint:
I have been working in   XXXX   jobs for close to 4 years now. I have also been working to pay off my federal loan through th e Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. I first  submitted 6 months cert ification ( out of 1 year employment )  to request credit for 6 months of payments and enrollment in the PSLF program. I initially was sent a letter saying the certification was valid and I would receive 6 months of credit for the one year I worked in my first   XXXX   job. I then transferred to another  XXXX  agency where I have been for almost 3 years. In those nearly 3 years, I have submitted yearly certification to show I am in the PSLF program, making on time Income Based payments and working toward the 10 years of service and payments before loan forgiveness. The Fed Loan company ( My Fed Loan ) routinely does not recognize these certifications, or says I have not submitted them, and does not accurately reflect the over three and a half years of payments that I have made in the PSLF program. I am concerned that they are not honoring the work I am doing or the payments I am making. I again submitted another certification this month, to which they responded that they had not received anything and to please re-certify every year. It is a pattern that they continue to exhibit which shows to me that the PSLF program is not being run properly. I also do n't make very much money and the payments they are taking are nearly 1/4 of my total income. I am struggling to adjust to their most recent increase from {$490.00} to {$700.00}. I am a single parent putting a child through college and working in a relatively low paying public service job. Any assistance the CFPB can provide to remedy these issues would be appreciated.

Complaint:
I have repeatedly called and applied for a plan to get my payment amount reduced. Once the FedLoan Servicing took an auto payment of over {$2000.00} out of my account without warning. Now, I have applied for an IDR several times and they keep not communicating with me and setting my payments above {$2000.00} per month despite my sending them a documented decrease in my income and increase in family size. After I submitted tax information, they sent a payment of over {$2000.00} per month and when I called, they said they needed recent pay stubs which I submitted. I called and got a forebearance with a payment of {$360.00} due inXX/XX/XXXX. Today, I get a letter requesting payment over {$2000.00} due XX/XX/XXXX without having answered by application for an IDR plan. I called and spoke with XXXX and he informs me that I need to write and fax names and dates of birth of all my family members! 
I feel like I have repeatedly gotten the run around with FedLoan and they are denying my ability to get an IDR plan

XXXX XXXX, you are in many violations and I am demanding you XXXX XXXX to correct all of your errors on my consumer reports right now. CFPB, FTC investigate this matter.

As of dated XX/XX/2022 at the time of XXXX XXXX, is reporting a Charge Off to ALL credit reporting agencies on my behalf with a balance of {$1200.00}.

The executive from XXXX, XXXX, told me I can NOT reopen my account, when I asked to reopen my account, hes very rude, and XXXX XXXX  is doing unfair business. I just CLEARY explained everything in a very basic and understandable term.
