Company: Machol & Johannes, LLC (WA)

They have been sending men out to our house at night to serve us papers. They act like a server and the ppwk is drawn up like federal superior court summons with my name verses the county and this company. When I call the courts there is no such thing in the system. They repeatedly come and knock on our door night after night. We have told them to not come back. We have told them we will call the police. They are using scare tactic and I consider it harassment not to mention its probably illegal. This has happened 5 times over the past 6-8 months.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: AMERICAN ADVISORS GROUP (CA)

I purchased a home inXX/XX/2017 using a reverse mortgage. I took $ XXXX of my own cash money to put aside for the taxes and insurance to ensure that these items would be paid in my older years. I since had to sell that property because I need my children to help me and they live in and close to XXXX XXXX. This money came from the sale of the house my husband and I shared for 45 years. I called AAG regarding the refund of this money that I set aside to pay taxes and was told since I sold the house, the money disappears. 

I tried explaining that this is not a typical set aside. This money was not a part of any loan proceeds. This is my money that they were holding for taxes and insurance. Once the house is sold, I am supposed to be entitled to that money back. The manager refuses to return my calls, and the representatives keep telling me that the money I put in disappears. 

They are scamming old people to steal their money.

I was approved for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from Chase 6 months ago and received a promotion to be automatically eligible for credit limit increase after using the card for {$500.00} USD or more and paying on time within 6 months. I diligently followed their advice by using the card for more than {$500.00} USD ( approximately $ XXXX to XXXX ) and made payments on time. However, still they never increased my credit limit. No consideration given at all. This is XXXX of my first credit cards in the United States and still in the credit building stage. They said the system does the approval and can not manually override. In my opinion, a human being can override a system if they want to but I guess they don't want to. At least they should consider my situation since I am doing my best to maintain a positive credit profile. I have spoken to many of their representatives and XXXX of them is from the lending department but still to no avail did bother to help me. I just wish no discrimination was involved here. I have been using this card heavily in the past few days and months. The problem is I have to transfer money from checking account to credit card every time I make a large purchase since my limit is only {$500.00} USD.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with balance transfer
Company: U.S. BANCORP (CA)

On XX/XX/2018, I qualified and completed 3 Balance Transfers with US Bank MasterCard. However, the bank sent 2 of my balance transfers to the Fraud Department without notifying me as a customer. I received no email stating to contact the company, no written notification, nor did I receive a voicemail stating to contact the company due to possible fraud. When completing the 3 transactions, I fulfilled the vetting process verifying my identity as the cardholder. I was also a customer in good standing with US Bank in which I retained a credit balance on my credit card account. However, I only received written correspondence confirming 1 of my  credit card transfers was processed. I was dismayed to learn on XX/XX/18 that 2 balance transfers were never processed which caused me undue hardship. The company could not explain why the 2 balance transfers were denied and stated my only recourse was to start the process over. US Bank business practices are a disservice to consumers because the company is prequalifying, marketing and notifying cardholders of a credit line, but when the customer uses the credit line, the transactions are being denied without any form of notification. Two of my transfers were for the same credit card. However, one was processed and one was denied. Therefore, US Bank Policies are hurting consumers. If I was properly notified, I could have handled this matter accordingly. However, the company has placed the onus on the consumers which is a violation of consumer rights. The company business practices need to be investigated because they are performing false advertisements of products, qualifying consumers for the false advertised products, and then denying consumers the use of the products without proper notification. The company actions are causing consumers unnecessary fees and lowering consumers credit scores.
