Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit
Issue: Credit decision / Underwriting

Complaint:
I am in desperate need of assistance I have being working with Wells Fargo. However they are refusing to settle with me, I was advised by Agent XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX from the recovery department if I find any mistake from Well Fargo they will settle with me. Therefore I submitted a letter requesting a settlement because in the Transaction statement history I was not given to proper credit towards my principle. To make matters worse in XX/XX/XXXX I made a payment to Wells Fargo for the amount of {$370.00} I was not given any credit to my principle this is clearly showing Wells Fargo was taking a bigger amount towards the interest only. I have a fix interest rate of 8.175 % and the monthly payments were for the amount of {$370.00}. The breakdown of the payments should of been how it shows in my mortgage statement which is Principal {$65.00} and Interest {$300.00}. brings a total of {$370.00}. However Wells Fargo did not give me credit for that payment and all the other payments were never broken down properly, Like I have mention I was advice trough a recorded call when I spoke with Agent XXXX if I find any mistakes they will settle with me. I do not have any additional funds to offer Wells Fargo. I was paying Wells Fargo for almost 6 years and with in those years after adding all for my history. Wells Fargo credit me {$2800.00} towards my principle and {$24000.00} towards interest. I am more than sure that Wells Fargo is practicing fraudulent and deceptive practices in order to prolong my loan. Please request a explanation from Wells Fargo. Thank you.

Company: Mobiloans, LLC
State: TN
Product: Payday loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest I didn't expect

Complaint:
I opened an account with Mobiloans on XXXX/XXXX/15. Since then I borrowed almost {$900.00}. By XX/XX/XXXX I had paid back over {$600.00} of the loan thru payments made to this account thru my bank account. At present after making these payments I still owe over {$900.00}. I had to go to my bank and put a stop payment, since the withdrawals were becoming not only more frequent, but also bigger each time. 

I had read something about this company before, but they seemed to be legitimate, but later found out what the complaint were about. 

I had made the loan because I was in between jobs to help me get thru to the next month, but the cost of pay8ing back the loan has made it almost impossible to do with the amount of money I make in my new job.

All that has been sent is a XXXX address and a statement saying " the account is verified.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA
Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint:
I have a checking account with Bank of America since XXXX and Credit card since XXXX. And I have an excellent credit history. My checking account has a overdraft protection enabled via the credit card account. This month I wrote a check to pay property tax and it so happened that my checking account did not have enough funds. And my credit card was overdue and hence the overdraft did not kick in. I agree I forgot to make the minimum payment for once. But I was never notified via their website on my accounts page that my overdraft protection will not kick in since my payment is overdue. It still shows it is linked but just that it is not of any use. They carelessly rejected my check, without notifying me in anyway about the overdraft status, in spite of all the history of transactions I had with them for over a decade and offered no help to correct the situation. Had they indicated the fact that overdraft protection is not going to help me, I could have acted differently.

Company: SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC.
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
An erroneous amount was drafted from my bank account which amounted to an excessive overpayment XX/XX/XXXX. The loan servicing company refused to 1 ) refund me the difference, 2 ) apply the overage to the appropriate account in a timely fashion ( waited three to four months to finally do this all the while reporting negative information to credit bureaus ), 3 ) remove the late fees applied to my mortgage account, 4 ) reimburse me the subsequent NSF fees I incurred, and 5 ) correct the negative reporting to credit bureaus ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ). Even though I contacted them timely and continued to follow-up up with the loan servicing company multiple times every month regarding this matter, I always received a different story or a request to resubmit the documentation I already submitted. It was not until I filed a complaint with CFPB XXXX that all but # 5 from the list above was corrected to which I continued my dispute of their response. My credit rating should not be damaged due to SPS ' error and refusal to address the matter in a timely and equitable fashion. The loan servicing company made a mistake and now they just need to be accountable for their error in its entirety. Reporting negative information implies that I was not handling my financial responsibilities and I definitely was at that time and continue to.

Complaint:
An item on my credit report says I owe a debt that I did not know about. As I have not had any loans or credit cards since around 2004, If this is my debt, it is over the 7 year reporting limit, and it is also a time barred debt ( Cal. Civ. Proc. Code 312 et seq. ), so it should not still be reporting on my credit report. I have disputed this item on my credit report and been told it will not be removed, but requests for proof that is my debt and when this debt was last paid, have gone unanswered.
