Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: AZ
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Don't agree with fees charged

Complaint:
Hello. I just read that Naviet has been hit with a law suit filed by you, the Consumer Protection Bureau for many, many objectionable practices. I currently have a loan with Naviet, which originated with XXXX. The loan was originated in XX/XX/XXXX and it was a consolidation of my student loans and my then husband 's student loans. 2 years later we divorced. XXXX/Navient have refused to release us from the consolidated loan and to create individual loans based on what the courts approved in our decree. I have made this request repeatedly to XXXX and Navient to no avail. I have worked for the XXXX for almost 29 years. I applied for the service worker loan forgiveness program but was told that our particular loan " does not qualify ''. No reason was given. I have taken my ex-husband to court to enforce the decree because he continually refuses to make payments. This has not helped either. The original loan amount was {$48000.00} and we currently owe {$30000.00}!!! How can that be after 21 years of payments?! During the course of my education I was issued other student loans and all of those loans have been paid in full -- YEARS ago! I am seeking help in getting released from the portion of the loan that I am not responsible for -- 65 % plus late fees and additional incurred interest from the lack of payment from my ex-husband. I believe that Navient/XXXX have refused to reissue the loan to us independently because they are making so much money off of the loan as is because of my ex-husband 's lack of ability and/or willingness to pay. If the loans were separated I would pay my portion off completely which would reduce their income because they would be unable to continue to charge me interest and related fees. I 'm willing to pay what I owe but I would like what is stated in my divorce decree to be what is reflected in a new loan agreement. I have been asking for this since my divorce was final in XX/XX/XXXX. Is there anything you can do to help as I try to navigate and correct this issue? Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide!

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: AZ
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Non-federal student loan
Issue: Can't repay my loan
Sub-issue: Can't decrease my monthly payments

Complaint:
I graduated from XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I did not find meaningful employment right away for not passing the XXXX. I became unemployed in XX/XX/XXXX due to the financial crisis but found employment again in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, because of excessive debt, I filed for Bankruptcy protection ( Ch. XXXX ) and one of my student loans was discharged ( because it did not have a separate guarantor ). In XX/XX/XXXX, I took and passed a XXXX though my income is not what most graduates 13 years removed from XXXX make. I have been attempting to pay my private student loans ( Discover Financial ) monthly and since graduating XXXX, have had my federal student loans on deferment ( continuing to accrue interest ). My XXXX accounts with them ( now totaling {$25000.00} down from {$40000.00} ) where I have paid substantially more interest than principal since graduating more than a decade ago, are now hovering between 120 and 150 days past due. I have repeatedly asked Discover to help me modify the notes and restructure payments so that I can begin paying my federal loans too where the balance is almost {$89000.00}. 
Discover Financial continues to deny that request when I call every two weeks and seem more interested in letting my loans go into full default so that they can make a claim on the insurance policies they have for these XXXX loans. Such a default will make Discover ( or XXXX the original lender ) whole though it will undeniably subject me to harassing collection calls ( anticipated to be XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and litigation, with a judgment inevitably entered against me or my elderly parents ( guarantors ) who have no steady income or ability to repay as they ride our retirement. 
I am begging for assistance from the insurance company XXXX XXXX ( operating as XXXX XXXX XXXX ) though I am not getting any cooperation from them either. Any assistance you may bring against these companies would be appreciated. 

Related, I would like to point out that Discover deceptively omits a borrower 's ability to pay less than the total amount due and outstanding in their mailed statements ( which I never receive anymore ) and through their online portal and website. Each time a borrower logs in, every screen including the PDF versions of their statements indicates that the entire past due balance must be paid. That would be true to bring it current though it would not be true to keep it from charging off. In my case, a payment of about {$230.00} per loan every 30 days will prevent charge off and a subsequent claim upon the insurer. However, each time I call, and each time I log in, I 'm told I have to pay about {$2300.00}. This sounds like a UDAAP violation to me worth of redress.

Complaint:
Quickclick loans in XXXX, Ga is reporting a negative account on my XXXX credit report that I have no knowledge of. I have sent in a notarized affidavit and a detailed police report stating that I have no knowledge of this account. I spoke with XXXX and XXXX in the fraud department and they informed me that they will not remove this negative item off the credit report unless a conviction was made of the person I believe who was using my identity. XXXX informed me if I followed through with trying to get the item removed they would investigate me and I would be charged with a felony. XXXX informed me that her and XXXX looked things over and they will not have the item removed. I have been trying to get this resolved for over 6 months now. They both were extremly rude to me.

Company: NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE COMPANY LLC
State: NC
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle lease
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I leased a car through Nissan. XX/XX/XXXX my car was stolen and involved in accident. When I called my insurance I was informed that I only had liability and the car was n't fully covered. When getting the car the salesman told me that he called my insurance company to verify my insurance and told me I was good to go. I have a paper where he said he called, but my insurance has no record of him calling. The finance manager then went on to fill out the lease agreement as if I was fully covered and signed the contract. I feel I was mislead and lied to. By North Carolina state requirements the dealership is required to call to verify the purchasers insurance. If in fact he did call then this would n't be an issue. The General Manager told me that they do not have to check customers insurance and that if you show them an insurance card that they assume you are fully covered ( I find that hard to believe ).

Complaint:
I went into sears and purchased a refrigerator and financed it through their credit card, and never got a statement, and also now was reported past due with the credit bureau. I am a XXXX and was treated with distain and like a criminal. I was interrupted many times as I was trying to talk and one person I talked to, XXXX at either sears or Citi bank said that if I make the XXXX dollars that would be fine, she would correct my credit bureau and also make sure all charges were taken off the account,, Then on Saturday I was called by Citi bank and said I was past due. I got a chance to call them today thinking it would take time to correct all the above to find out that nothing is corrected and that I still am past due. I paid the amount ( XXXX ) immediately and now am contacting you. I assume that nothing will be done and I will hear nothing from Citi Bank or sears, but I know my collection department does what we say will do.. and they should too.

Sub-issue: Threatened to take legal action

Complaint:
A man, XXXX XXXX, left a message on my voicemail claiming he was trying to locate me with a legal summons for a lawsuit. He left me the number of this company to contact in regards to this case. I called the number he provided where I was told I was being accused of defrauding XXXX XXXX for a credit card I had issued back in 2000. They were suing me for over $ XXXX.They claim Citibank bought the debt and they were now demanding their money. I am not sure that this is a valid debt. I have not received any collection notice from this company as of yet, just this phone call. I contacted my attorney and she researched our local county court calendar. She can not find a court date for this hearing. At this point she feels as though this is a scam of some sort and recommended I report it to the authorities. I am also concerned because these people do have at least the last XXXX numbers of my social security number.

Complaint:
Experian has not provided me, to date, their reinvestigation procedures, & additional documentation provided to them, in the matter of my dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. This is clearly a violation of the FCRA, which enforces fair credit reporting by the credit bureaus. To date, Experian continues to falsely report XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX Account # XXXX as a contractual debt under my name, without conducting a proper reinvestigation of my dispute. They have not provided me any further information which supports their verification of the item, and have not weighed impartially the documentation that I provided to them. 
In support of my complaint against Experian, I am attaching the results of XXXX 's investigation of my complaint with XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. XXXX conducted a proper, impartial investigation of my dispute, and deleted the false information from my credit file. XXXX has failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation of my dispute, or provide to me their verification procedures and additional documentation provided to them, in making their decision. Based upon their actions, XXXX has violated the FCRA regulations, and should be penalized accordingly.

Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint:
In late XX/XX/2016 I received a mailed invitation to apply for a Citi/AAdvantage Platinum Select Card. The offer in the invitation stated that if I charged {$3000.00} in the first 3 months of having the card, I would receive XXXX ( XXXX ) American Airline frequent flier miles. I applied for the card and charged in excess of {$3000.00} in the first three months. I have paid all of these amounts promptly. Two weeks ago, I called the Citi number on the statement ( XXXX ) XXXX to insure that the XXXX miles had been added to my AAdvantage account. I was told that because I had a similar card in the last two years I was ineligible for the XXXX miles previously promised. I spoke with two levels of supervisors and each confirmed the same, one stating that the was a large number of people in similar situations. While Citi can make whatever rules it wants, if I was ineligible for the XXXX miles : ( 1 ) why did they send an offer to the contrary and ( 2 ) why did they issue the card knowing that it was requested in response to their offer? 
It 's requested that your agency intervene in the matter and compel Citi to honor its promise, just as I have in paying all of their statements promptly. Also, I ask that ( if possible under your rules ) this complaint be made not only in my own behalf but also that of every other person in a similar situation. It is unfair to offer something as an incentive and, only after cardholders have performed their obligations to earn it, pulling it away. For purposes of the box below that requests money loss information, I 'm valuing the miles at one cent per mile, which to my understanding is customary. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

I opened a Target REDcard managed by TD Bank in XX/XX/XXXX. This week ( the week of XX/XX/XXXX ) they closed my account due to 18 months of inactivity.

Experian is reporting an account ( the only bureau of the XXXX major ) for XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX XXXX as delinquent in 2015. The store is not even in existence. It closed years ago.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
On Friday XX/XX/2017 we received a check from Bank of America for the sum of {$640.00} for overpayment on a home equity line of credit which was paid off when the sale of our property completed on XX/XX/2017. This account was on autopay from our checking account so the bank took the extra money rather than us sending it. Although the check we received was dated XX/XX/2017 the envelope we received it in was post marked XX/XX/2017. This means that not only did the bank overcharge us {$640.00} they also held our money for no good reason for at least two weeks without payment of any interest. This is an unacceptable abuse of a customer.

Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint:
Hello I had private student loans through XXXX/navient back in XX/XX/XXXX which were all paid off. In XX/XX/XXXX I was contacted saying that my four year private loan payment came due and I would have to pay over XXXX dollars when i am still in school for my XXXX. First I explained these were paid for and if they were only for four years why was I notified 8-9 years later. They did n't have an answer and refused to get to the bottom of this issue saying regardless I had to pay my loan that now had 9 years of interest. Navient never notified me I still had a loan with them from XXXX and wanted me to repay money I did not have. When i confronted them about this they said there was nothing they could do and oh well sorry about your luck. First off I already have one set of documentation saying one of the alleged loans were paid so basically they are trying to make me pay the same loan twice and then gave no sympathy I was still in school and could not afford the payment only stating oh well i guess your credit will suffer. In addition as stated even if some of these loans are possibly open they waited 8 years on a four year loan allowing years of interest to compile until they informed me
