Company: RUSHMORE LOAN MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
I have owned my home for several years and fell behind on my mortgage due to a reduction in my monthly income. My home is underwater as many people 's homes are in this market, the only option I have to save my home is through the making home affordable program. I have applied for several modifications with my mortgage servicer and have received several denials. The denials are based off a negative NPV, which is a very vague decision. I make monthly income and could very much afford a payment for my home. The investor on my loan seems to fluctuate my value based off of the internet, they have never seen the inside of my home but value it at the top of the market, like a remodeled home instead of the true value. This fluctuation in my homes ' value is the major reason why the decision on my modification is always no. My loan was also recently acquired by an investor and was service released to Rushmore to foreclose. My only option left today to avoid foreclosure is to short sale. I was told by my servicer that if I would find them a good offer that they would work with me and not foreclose. I listed my home with a realtor and have received several offers for my home, an as-is offer at fair market value was accepted by me to submit for short sale approval. This offer was denied by my investor and the buyers increase was also later denied- we are within XXXX of the investors net today and they refuse to do an interior appraisal which would help close this gap in value. The buyers have decided to conduct an inspection of my home with their contractor and termite company, these reports will be submitted to Rushmore for consideration of a value dispute- the only problem is this investor does not entertain value disputes per my servicer. My home needs repair and this is why the offer is at this amount. This is not a low ball offer as it is within XXXX of the remodeled home that sold directly across the street. How can they not entertain pertinent information like this?! Given the situation that I find myself in I would be in a better place if I can have Rushmore work with me on a short sale, they promised they would and I have spent the last month preparing and helping with selling my home when Rushmore would rather foreclose. I fear that I will be kicked out on the street by my servicer, all of my attempts to work with them are futile and to make matters worse I often feel antagonized by the person assigned to my file. I am going through a rough patch in my life, I would appreciate being treated like a human being, I have held my end of the agreement to short sale, part of working with someone is to have the information I send in considered not hastily disregarded as insufficient-within 5 minutes of sending it. Sincerely

State: CO
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Payday loan
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I contacted the company on my due date and made arangements to pay the payment in 5 days when I had a paycheck come in. They said that was fine and told me to come in and pay on my payday. I then contacted them on my payday to see how much the payment was and they said I had to pay the total amount of the loan. I did n't have that much money to pay in full. I told them of my situation and they said I had to pay the whole amount. On my next payday I attemed to pay the full amount and they sent me an email saying that I had to pay the full amount plus {$500.00} to pay off the debt. They then proceeded to call roughly 20 times a day harassing me leaving me countless messages on my voice mail. They called so many times that I was reprimanded at work for my cell phone ringing twice an hour. I just want to settle the correct amount that is owed so the harassment will stop. The company is ace cash express.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
Experian periodically ( on average, every two months ) lowers my credit score without providing any qualitative details as to why it was lowered and no means of disputing the change of score. This credit reporting business lowers my score, provides no actionable reasons why it was lowered, and then offers general information how to raise one 's credit score and also provides " products '' that can purportedly help an individual raise the score. This company needs to provide qualitative evidence why the company found the need to lower an individual 's score and then provide channels for that individual to reinstate a previous score when no irresponsible action to lower a score was committed. I have not altered my financial behaviors one iota since Experian last sent me a credit score change notice. The company seems to be arbitrarily lowering my score when they see fit. It is exasperating to be punished for no apparent reason. This company owns the score, makes the rules for maintaining a score, and hides behind call center representatives whose job it is to sell product so the executives and management don't have to answer to their harmful policies and practices.

This did not happen and I was unable to find employment as a XXXX period. In XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, I attended XXXX career institute for a XXXX. Midway through the program, students learned that the school was being investigated for fraud in reference to student loans and was ultimately shut down by the dept of education after a lawsuit was brought against the school and its founder. Due to this, I was unable to obtain any documentation of completion or transcripts from the school or Dept of education due to my academic records being seized as evidence. Until this day, those records are unable to be located. I was unable to attend an XXXX to XXXX program due to not having access to these records. I was also unable to transfer my XXXX to any state but the state I was originally licensed in due to not being able to provide any transcripts ofrom this program as required for license by endorsement.

Issue: Money was not available when promised

Complaint:
I created a account on coinbase to purchase bitcoin on XX/XX/XXXX and was unaware that there was a designated time period to withdrawal funds. I contacted coinbase support explaining the misunderstanding and ask if I could have a refund of my money, they replied that I had to wait to the specific date set by their security feature. 

I have contact them again today my funds are suppose to be available according to there system. I was not giving any reason to why my funds are not available when the withdrawal date is XX/XX/XXXX which is today. 

I am highly frustrated that they are holding my money without my permission. I have asked several times to have my funds made available. 

They don't have customer service available to call and speak to them only if your account has been compromised. This is very unprofessional and unethical, when you are responsible for people 's money you should have a live representative to speak too.

Complaint:
I was checking out what was involved in starting a website when a person solicited me over the telephone. I was told if I had certain qualities I would be able to enter a special program to help me start an online business. It turns out that the special quality was if I had the money. On XXXX XXXX, 2014 I was contacted by a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I was told I could earn a significant amount of money by working from home. I was sold supposed " Educational Products and Services '' on XXXX XXXX for {>= $1,000,000}. This alleged service was intended to guide me on building an XXXX business online and sell products on XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX verbally promised over the telephone that I would be learning this " XXXX '' business because of there assistance. I was told I would receive weeks of coaching but the company failed to provide anything in writing that explained the coaching process. After numerous phone calls I finally received a phone call from a gentleman named " XXXX ''. This individual informed me that he would assist me during the coaching process. The coaching process only lasted a short period of time before it became impossible to reach anyone on the phone. After a few phone calls from my alleged coach I immediately became suspicious that I was involved in a scam. Everything that I was originally told from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX was a complete lie. 
It was now evident to me that I was involved in an online business opportunity scam. I tried everything in my power to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. All phone calls went to voice-mail and were never returned back to me. I even realized that this company was operating from a XXXX XXXX not an actual business location. As of today no contact has been made with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. They never provided any " Educational Products '' or " Services '' to date. I urge you to please try and contact them to help me resolves this issue. 
I consider a full refund to be a fair resolution with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I did not receive the products and services that were described to me at the time of purchase. I have attempted to resolve this issue with the company directly, but they continue to ignore all request. The invoice that I have has no terms of agreement or show what services were to be provided. During this period of time I was on medical XXXX and was looking for an opportunity to work from home. From initial point of contact I was verbally guaranteed to make sales/profits. Before I loss all communication I attempted to go and meet them personally and learn the business hands on. They repeatedly refused and would not provide me with a physical address. I paid this company and they completely disappeared. I have received absolutely nothing and my bank will not assist me.

Company: SLM CORPORATION
State: VA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Can't repay my loan
Sub-issue: Can't decrease my monthly payments

Complaint:
I have several student loans through Sallie Mae called the " smart option '' student loan. We have tried multiple times to consolidate these loans or get the payments lowered. As of right now they want us to pay almost {$600.00} per month which is not even feasible at the moment. We were at one point put into a program which lowered the interest rates from almost 11 % down to 4 % for 1 year and then down to 2 % for 1 year but we were only allowed into that program because the loan had defaulted. The loans have been paid for 3-4 years without missing a payment and they wo n't let us consolidate or lower the interest payment. The last person I spoke to told me that the only way they could help us with anything would be to let the loan go to collections/default. Of course then it would hit our credit and hurt other things leaving only one choice, to pay. For student loans only totaling {$36000.00} a {$700.00} a month payment is just a bit much. All we want is a fair rate and a fair monthly payment. Do n't get any student loan through Sallie Mae unless it is a government subsidized or unsubsidized student loan.
