Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
I have two student loans with fedloan servicing. 

One loan is a direct unsubsidized of XXXX, XXXX  and the other loan is a direct subsidized of XXXX, XXXX On Monday XX/XX/2019 I called to pay off my direct subsidized loan of XXXX, XXXX. I spoke to XXXX ID # XXXX. My confirmation number for my payment is XXXX. I made it clear to XXXX I wanted to pay off my direct subsidized loan of XXXX, XXXX. He said he understood. He told me it would take 2-3 business days to process. 

On Wednesday XX/XX/2019 I checked my online fedloan servicing account and the account said I owed XXXX, XXXX on my unsubsidized loan and XXXX, XXXX on my subsidized loan. This is not what I wanted. I wanted to pay off my subsidized loan of XXXX, XXXX  and just have one student loan ; my unsubsidized loan of XXXX, XXXX I called fedloan servicing one again On On Wednesday XX/XX/2019 I spoke with XXXX ID # XXXX. I informed her of my payment on Monday and informed her I wanted to pay off my subsidized loan. She said she would reapply the payment. She informed me this would take 2-3 business days to process. 

On Friday XX/XX/2019 I checked my fedloan servicing online account and it said I owed XXXX, XXXX on my unsubsidized loan and XXXX, XXXX  on my subsidized loan. I call fedloan servicing on Friday XX/XX/2019 I spoke with XXXX ID # XXXX. I informed her this was my third time calling. She said she would take care of the issue. I specifically informed her I wanted to pay off my loan of XXXX, XXXX which was my subsidized loan. I informed her I only wanted one loan of XXXX, XXXX which is my unsubsidized loan. She said she would take care of the issue. She informed me if would take 2-3 business days to process. 

On Tuesday XX/XX/2019 I checked my fedloan severing online account and it said I owed XXXX, XXXX on my unsubsidized loan and XXXX, XXXX on my subsidized loan. I call fedloan servicing on Tuesday XX/XX/2019 I spoke with XXXX ID # XXXX. This is the 4th time I call and waste my time. I informed XXXX the issue. He now informed me it would take 15 days to resolve the issue. 

I am not sure what fedloan servicing is trying to do with my loans. I have called 4 times and the problem is not yet resolved. 

It is easy On XX/XX/2019 I wanted to pay off my direct subsidized loan of XXXX, XXXX  This did not happen. 

I will never ever go back to college and get a student loan again. 

BEWARE OF FEDLOAN SERVICING

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
This company continues to violate the XXXX Finance Code by not  providing a surety bond for XXXX or themselves. As such, I am seeking legal advise from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to legally pursue this matter further. The finance code is very specific and both companies continue to violate it. 

This company has repeatedly failed to provided their right to lawfully collect in the state of XXXX. They are required to get a surety bond. No one had provided this which is required under the XXXX Finance code. I will continue to file a complaint until this is removed from my credit or this company proves they are legally authorized to collect in this state. XXXX Finance Code 392.202 and 392.101 This company is headquartered in the state of XXXX. I am a XXXX resident. This company is fraudulent and illegally collecting in the state of XXXX. I also do not show this credit bureau has a valid surety bond to collect in the state of XXXX. XXXX hasn't produced info. 

I want this removed from my report immediately. I want the {$10000.00} fee paid for each day this continues to remain on my report per the code. 

I have failed a complaint with the XXXX Attorney General 's office. Attached is the complaint for both companies.

Complaint:
I am writing to you regarding Bank Of America Credit Card Account ending in XXXX. 
This account was delinquent, and I hired a debt settlement company that worked to settle multiple accounts on my behalf, including XXXX credit cards from Bank of America. The debt settlement company, XXXX XXXX XXXX, reached a settlement for this account for {$660.00} to satisfy the original account balance of {$1100.00} Payments of {$220.00} were made on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX totaling the {$660.00} to settle the account. Attached are letters I received from B of A regarding the agreement to settle, as well as proof payments that were successfully made to B of A from the bank account of XXXX XXXX XXXX ( account ending XXXX ). These payments cleared successfully per the settlement agreement, but the payments were never marked as paid by B of A because this account is still listed on my credit report as past due as recently as XXXX XXXX  XXXX. I called B of A customer service myself on XX/XX/XXXX, and they stated that the agreement was considered broken as of XX/XX/XXXX due to nonpayment, which is incorrect as the entire {$660.00} was paid as agreed on the dates above. I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX  who handled my settlement and made payments on my behalf, and their case manager XXXX XXXX contacted BofA on my behalf ; B of A admitted by phone to misapplying the payments for this settlement to a different credit card account, but still refuse to mark this account as paid and settled, and so it still on my credit report to this day even though it was paid off in XXXX. This is still causing me financial hardship to this day, as it is negatively affecting my credit and causing undue problems when I have settled and paid all my debts according to agreement. I am asking B of A to honor the payments that were made per this agreement, and mark this account as settled as of XXXX when payments were made to them, so it can be removed from my credit report as delinquent.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: DC
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
I applied for a new XXXX XXXX card from Citibank which I should have been well qualified for ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), but was apparently denied without explanation, despite following instructions from their customer service. I applied aroundXX/XX/XXXX. After several weeks without a response I called Citibank 's customer service around XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that I needed to verify my identiy either by providing a reference a letter, or by answering a verification call. I had not received a letter, and apparently the phone number they had called was a landline number that I discontinued a few years ago. The customer service rep offered to re-send the letter.
So far this was fine -- I ca n't fault Citi for wanting to do two-factor authentication. The troubles began when I received the repeat letter. I called Citi again and provided the code in the letter, but instead of taking this as verification, they instead denied the application. The only reason I could get out of the customer service rep I spoke to was that they " could not verify the information on [ my ] credit report. '' I went around with him repeatedly trying to figure out what that meant, or how I could fix it, but only got the same response. I asked to speak to a supervisor, but while I was being transferred I accidentally pushed the wrong button on my phone and hung up.
At this point things went from bad to worse. I tried calling back, but Citibank 's application line has an automated voice response system that requires an SSN before you can proceed. When I enter my SSN, I get an automated response that my application has been denied, and can proceed no further. I ca n't get anyone from Citibank on the phone, and ca n't get any further information. Citi eventually sent a letter confirming the denial, but with no additional information, just " We could n't verify the accuracy of some of the information you provided. '' I 've attached the final uninformative letter, such as it is.
Now I have no card, and a hit on my credit score from a hard inquiry that went nowhere.
