Consumer complaint received 2022-06-23
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: AR
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
My complaint is with American Education Services ( AES ) I have had multiple issues with this company for many years including when going through hardship. With the exception of 3 months during Covid, they did not offer assistance in getting making payment assistance and harassed myself and XXXX XXXX XXXX grandmother with multiple calls a day. My most recent complaint involves a payment. I called AES at around XXXX XXXX  XXXX on XX/XX/2022 at the number : XXXX to make a debit card payment in the amount of {$190.00}. The payment was accepted, but I did not receive a confirmation number. On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed that my payment had not posted to my online account. However, my bank statement showed the payment processed and debited from my bank account on XX/XX/2022. I sent an email through online portal and called to find out why. From that point I made phone calls to AES on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX to resolve the matter. I was told that my payment was pending, that my payment was sent to FED Loans ( without my consent ) by accident but they were working on applying it to my AES, that they could not apply it to my AES and it would be refunded. On XX/XX/XXXX, the representative told me it should be refunded to me within 2-3 weeks. My last call on XX/XX/XXXX, I was told that they ( AES ) couldn't do anything further and that I need to call FED LOANS to have a refund processed. I called FED LOANS who attempted a refund two times and was told within 2 weeks to my payment source ( debit card ). I noticed that on XX/XX/XXXX, the loan was credited to FED LOANS on my credit report. I do not believe any attempt has been made to resolve my problem nearly 2 months later. I'm nervous about continuing payments out of fear that my funds will continue to be mishandled. However, I know that not making an attempt will hurt credit rating and put me at risk for default. I feel like this is a means to keep capitalizing on the interest on my payments. I'm attaching a screen shot of the payment debited from my checking account and call log. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
I was charged a late fee because the credit card company stated I was an hour late paying my bill. They said I needed to pay by XXXX XXXX- I live on the XXXX XXXX XXXX I have never had to pay a bill by a certain time of day. Payments are required by a certain date- in my experience, ending at XXXX  ( local time ) based on my location.

They also said they already waived a fee for me in XXXX but I have not had the card that long. I believe this is an attempt to fraudulently collect fees and take advantage of senior citizens ; I am over XXXX XXXX XXXX.

State: IL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
On my credit report with XXXX it shows I have 14 accounts/ loans. 
My loans have been in forbearance and/ or a {$0.00} payment re-payment plan. 
My account shows that the loans were late but I never had a payment due because I didnt have a payment. 
I have spoken to XXXX many times and they said that they can not undue the mistakes that someone else made on my account because they can not verify what that person said. But the fact of the matter is I never had a payment to make. 
I have requested that the three credit bureaus investigate the accounts many times but the accounts are never corrected and the late/ missed payment reporting still shows. 
Now that the account is closed I can not do anything. 
This information is hindering me from be able to securing funding and operate my business. 
In accordance to 15 U.S.C. 1681a 602a the information furnished and being reported is inaccurate and causing tremendous burden.

Instead, they have taken it upon themselves to place my personal telephone number on my consumer report totally disregarding my right to privacy. Not only is this unacceptable it is a violation of my consumer rights as well. Please see the attached exhibit.
