Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
I used the officially authorized website by the federal government for receiving credit reports : XXXX. Every credit reporting agency said that they were unable to give credit reports online at this time ( XX/XX/2018 ). However, I currently live in XXXX and so it is not very feasible to request a mail in for credit reports, so I have no way of officially getting a credit report through government-official ways.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Savings account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
phone number is XXXX XXXX XXXX This is began back in XXXX with a text message asking me if I approved a {$3500.00} XXXX  transaction. I immediately replied " NO '' and immediately called my bank ( bank of America ). 

While contacting the bank, I received a phone call from at the time was assured it was from Bank of America because it showed up on my caller ID with the correct number of the bank and showed bank name. 

That's where it all went downhill. I was instructed to XXXX my own name to get the money back, then instructed to do it again using the case number.. 

When this transaction was completed,, I was instructed not to go back to my account for 24 hours. At that moment I once again called Bank of America and explained what just transpired. 

I spoke to XXXX in Texas in the fraud department, I was immediately informed the account was frozen, when the investigation was complete ( 45 days ) my money would be sent back to me in increments. 

I contacted bank of America numerous times during the 45 day investigation. 



On XX/XX/XXXX, I was told my claim was denied and Bank of America will NOT be refunding any of my money! 

I requested to speak to a supervisor, XXXX ( senior claim person ), Who gave me the same XXXX 

I then requested to speak to her manager ( XXXX XXXX ) to this date NO ONE HAS CALLED ME BACK! 



I have filed a claim with IC3.GOV XX/XX/XXXX as well and have not heard back from them as of yet. 



Please understand the only reason I even had this much money, is because it was left to me when my mother passed away. 

I am living on a fixed income and desperate to get this money back i BELIEVE BANK OF AMERICA IS RESPONSIBLE BECAUSE The initial phone call came up on my caller ID as bank of America so how in goodness was I to know it was a scam! Their customer service representative told me the account was frozen and my money would come back to me in increments. 

Thank you for all your help

Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I went to log into my citibank account and could not. It said I needed to get my new card first and asked me to input some information I found this strange because I had just gotten a new card a few months ago so i called the bank to find out after 20 years they are closing my account. I have spent hours on the phone trying to get a reason why and can not. They also will not let me withdraw my money and have left my XXXX year old daughter and XXXX year old granddaughter without access to her money because her account was linked to mine. I am out of the country on my honeymoon which ironically started on XX/XX/XXXX. Some mysterious investigation was done by this unreachable division of the bank as I called my branch and they claim they can only email these people and still do n't have a response. In this day and age this is outrageous. The account has well over 80k in it.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I lost my job at the onset of Covid 19 pandemic back in XX/XX/2020, I was unable to afford to pay mortgage. I had called XXXX several times to try to get on a forbearance plan from about XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX when I was finally able to get through to a live person in XX/XX/2020. Id call several times a day at different times but was not successful for a few weeks. I was finally able to get FHA loan on forbearance plan but had become 30 days late on payment during this time. XXXX continues to report 30 days late and it is making my credit score tank horrendously. I have asked several times if they could work with me as it was out of my hands but without resolve. 

There have been many representatives since then that have said it should be removed but when I try to dispute it comes back as correct. 

I called CFPB and rep said I should file a complaint

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: PA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Can't temporarily delay making payments

Complaint:
I have 4 private student loans with Navient. They are so extremely difficult to deal with. I have lost income with the economy being so bad. I am trying to save every penny to pay my mortgage, and I don't have enough money to pay my private student loans also. I called them, they do not have an forbearance options for me. Since rates have increased the last time I spoke with a different woman and they said that they could sign me up for the interest rate reduction program HOWEVER, since rates have increased it would have only increased my payment from the Interest rate reduction program payment that I was already on of $ XXXX.a month. Now the program expired and I am not on a program at all and my payment is over {$800.00} a month. They just took the {$800.00} out of my account when I NEVER authorized them to do that and my bank bounced the check because there was no money in the account. I had only ever authorized the {$320.00} payments until the end of the program and it ended last month. 

I got one of these loans almost 20 years ago. The interest rate is over 13 %!! I DID NOT even take this loan out. The school I was attending XXXX XXXX University ( XXXX XXXX ) had me sign a paper they said that they were going to get me grants. They NEVER said anything about this student loan. I would have NEVER obtained a 13 % interest rate! it was not until I quit that school and then I found out I owed money. I have been paying this student loan since XXXX. I still owe more now than the loan was ever originally taken out for. 

If you look at my loan paperwork my rates are at 13.875 %, 11.25 %, 11.25 %, and 9.25 %. AND it shows that my rates are VARIABLE. If this is not an example of predentary lending I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS. I owe them {$92000.00} And I have already been paying them since XXXX!!!! I attached the complete loan history of just 1 of my loans with Navient.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I spoke with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to make three accounts current ( and out of forbearance ) and confirm that this would be updated with the credit bureaus prior to a XXXX closing date. 

I called XXXX to confirm at the end of the month and then almost every single business day since XX/XX/XXXX to ensure this was updated appropriately with the bureaus. 

However, as of XX/XX/XXXX all three accounts have not been appropriately updated with all bureaus as out of forbearance, and this is holding up my closing per XXXX guidelines. I have now been charged the EMD ( earnest money deposit ) of {$3000.00} for defaulting on the contract and despite more than 20 calls over the past several weeks, they have failed to correct a single account, although they have updated the bureaus with the loan balances.
