Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, 2016 at XXXX XXXX, I received a call from ( XXXX ) XXXX. The caller was female and stated she was with Transworld Systems and asked me to verify my identity ( last XXXX of my social and/or birth date ) before she could disclose why she was calling. I told her that seemed fishy and I would not give any identifying information without knowing why they were calling. She refused to give more information and said they would contact me by mail. I conducted a reverse lookup on the phone number and it returned to an individual located in XXXX, TX, not any company. 

Today, XXXX XXXX, 2016 I got a call from ( XXXX ) XXXX. I have had repeated calls from this number and no one ever answers on the other end. I had a call from this number on XXXX XXXX at XXXX, on XXXX XXXX at XXXX, and today at XXXX. I chose to call the number back to ask to be removed from their call list. The person answered as " Transworld Systems '' and asked who I was. I gave only my first name and told them I wanted my number removed from their list. She asked if I was ( my first and last name ) and I said yes, then she said they had been trying to reach me. I told her that I had already spoken to someone and they refused to tell me why they were calling. I also told her that I have no outstanding debts and that there was no other reason for them to be contacting me. I asked to speak with a supervisor to be removed from their call list. She never offered to transfer me to a supervisor, but confirmed my telephone number and said I had been removed from their call list. When I looked up this phone number, it did not come back to a company, but showed up on a list of possible scams.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
Used XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  online bill payment service to issue payments to my credit card company. Unfortunately, I selected an old payee from the dropdown list and made two payments to the former card issuing bank, XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Payment Date : XX/XX/19 Payment Amount : {$220.00} Payment Date : XX/XX/19 Payment Amount : {$94.00} The XXXX card portfolio was subsequently sold to Barclays and is where I intended the payment to go. 

I've been in contact with XXXX XXXX XXXX ( multiple times before XX/XX/19, XXXX XXXX ' online banking provider - XXXX ( XX/XX/19 XXXX XXXX ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/19 @ XXXX Hawaii Time, XXXX XXXX ), and Barclays ( XX/XX/19 XXXX Case # XXXX ; XX/XX/19 XXXX XXXX and his manager, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/19 CSR? And her manager XXXX ; XX/XX/19 CSR XXXX ). 

XXXX XXXX XXXX sent payment tracer information to Barclays on XX/XX/19 and XX/XX/19. 

Barclays sent a letter dated XX/XX/19 to say that on XX/XX/19 they issued provisional credit in the amount of {$220.00}. That is incorrect. The credit was posted on XX/XX/19, as shown on my XX/XX/19 statement. I have not received word about the status of that case. 

I received a credit balance refund check on XX/XX/19, that included the provisional credit. 

I received a vague letter from Barclays dated XX/XX/19 saying they received my recent paymnent inquiry and are unable to complete my request at this time. I assumed it was regarding the {$94.00} payment, so I called. The CSR told me they can't find that payment so they can't help me. She said they found the {$220.00} payment and that's why they issued me a check. After I used the term " provisional credit '' and questioned whether they were in violation of Reg E, she recanted and also committed to escalating my compalint to a manager who would call me back within 24 to 48 hours.

I am unable to attach documents at this time but can do so in the future if you provide an email address or a portal where I can upload them.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 I filed a complaint to Cash App regarding fraudulent Transactions. I tried disputing 4 transactions, but it only allowed me to do 2. 
The 2 transactions that I disputed were one in the amount of {$110.00} and the other in the amount of {$170.00}. These disputes were denied by Cash-App. I tried requesting a refund from the person the money was sent to and she denied them. 

I called Cash-App costumer service line on XX/XX/2022 to get more assistance. The agent I spoke to informed me that there was nothing that could be done by them and that the only way for me to get my money back was if I filed a dispute with my financial institution. I did exactly that. I filed a dispute on XX/XX/2022 with my bank and they were able research and get my money back. They also closed my old card. 

On XX/XX/2022 I had a balance of {$140.00} in my cash balance account and I noticed that cash app recharged me the {$110.00} and the {$170.00} that I previously disputed which now puts me at a balance of - {$140.00}. When I asked about why I am being charged I was told that it was because I disputed them. 

I am not understanding why I am being recharged for a dispute Cash App was not able to assist with in the first place? 
I really need help getting this resolved.

Company: Lending Club Corp
State: CA
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Problems when you are unable to pay

Complaint:
I had a loan from Lending Club in the amount of {$35000.00}. It has recently been charged off and now I owe around {$37000.00} to them. 

My financial situation became dire last year due to some increased financial obligations to family members and house that we recently took over. Prior to these sudden changes, I had made XXXX successful payments on time with this current loan, as well as several on time payments with another Lending Club loan before I had it paid off. 

Due to falling delinquent around XXXX of last year, I attempted to make several arrangements to catch up but fell short. As a result of that, around XXXX of last year the loan was referred to a collection agency called XXXX XXXX. I began working with them to establish a payment plan. I was able to commit to {$110.00} dollars or so over a 20 month period just to get Lending Club some sort of payment. I made XXXX payment in XXXX. When XXXX 's payment came around, I was advised by XXXX XXXX that Lending Club already charged off my loan. When I was told that, I was extremely upset and placed a stop payment on the XXXX payment as I got tired of getting the running around from them. 

Every time I called Lending Club they they said I could n't speak to them and I needed to speak to XXXX. When I called XXXX, they could not give me any more details other than the delinquent balance. 

Today is XXXX and I have sent XXXX emails and made several calls to Lending Club ( to which I finally got a call back ). I wanted to discuss settlement options with them to alleviate the balance owed as my credit score dropped to the XXXX range from around XXXX. The settlement option they gave me was over a 12 month period for a balance of about {$24000.00}. I told the representative on the phone that I fell behind on my monthly payment of {$1000.00} and for them to expect me to pay double that per month over 12 months was assanign. I had to ask the representative the following question twice, " how can a person who ca n't pay X, now be expected to pay double the balance at Y? '' I need assistance here for this matter as I 've never had a delinquency before. I am a single income supporting my wife and XXXX children and I want to make this right. To add insult to injury, I just got into a car accident last week and I feel my car might be deemed salvaged by the insurance company given how old it is. So my only form of transportation to work might be taken away, and now that I have a horrible credit score, I would n't be able to get a car lease or a loan to purchase a new car if I wanted to.
