Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC. (MS)

I was selling an item on XXXX. I received a check in the mail for the item and when I deposited the next day the funds were returned, onXX/XX/XXXXindicating a bad check. That was fine and I understand totally. But my bank Suntrust put a hold on the check amount essentially withdrawing that money again. When I went to a branch to address the issue it was sent to their fraud department. Then they put a no debit status on my account, locking it and holding all my funds hostage while they " investigate. '' Suntrust has illegally locked up my funds and ruining me financially. It has been almost 30 days and they said it would be resolved in 10-15 days. The representative I spoke with from Suntrust said the no debit status would only last five days! I have rights as a consumer and Suntrust is blatantly abusing them.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Billing problem
Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. (FL)

Retail installment credit agreement entered into on XX/XX/2015 for XXXX to purchase a used vehicle with Santander. When the vehicle was delivered it would not even start, and had several mechanical issues that were not disclosed from the seller. 

When the dealer was contacted, there was no response, and eventually we discovered from the police, that the dealer had been shut down for fraud issues. 

Contacted Santander to request that the check being issued to the dealer was stopped. 

The check was sent anyway - after the request to stop the process. The title was send directly to me. 

I contacted Santander to discuss the issue and determine what can be done to rectify this situation. Working with XXXX XXXX we discussed the a potential modification to the original agreement taking into consideration the numerous repairs required. 

During these negotiations i was informed that XXXX XXXX was not longer with the company, and was sent a modification agreement that did not reflect the terms discussed. I " redlined '' the agreement, and returned to Santander, who rejected the agreement due to " changes to the document. '' Since that time, I have had numerous calls with customer service and collections to discuss the issue - which always result in the same conclusion. " We will notate and someone will get back to you. '' Last week, the vehicle was repossessed - and just to add to the issue, my yard was torn up and damaged in the process. 

I have contacted Santander to discuss this issue several times since the repossession, with no resolution. In fact, customer service/collections agents keep telling me that the car loan is past due and ask me to explain the issue AGAIN ... even though it is in the notes of their servicing system. 

I requested a copy of the pay history, all correspondence and the notations - the CFPB servicing file - from Santander, and only received a pay history. 

I received a notice today, that they intend to sell the vehicle in a private auction on XXXX - this disclosure did not include any details of the auction, or even provide the total amount due. 

I called again today to discuss, and after 2 hours on the phone explaining the situation AGAIN, I was transferred to the Office of the President, where I was played a recorded message without ability to leave a message. 

In summary - this complaint is for Confusing, time-consuming, and unhelpful customer service. 
Repossession of the vehicle without completion of the mod Delivered a vehicle that is not worth the original value considering the condition Invested over $ 24K in repairs that is not being accounted for Improper demand notice - for sale of the asset

Equifax reported in a response to the regulatory agency, CFPB, that they had investigated and found reporting to be correct, they lied. The lie is revealed with the truth, first of all, they did n't contact or investigate anything, instead they are playing the same game they always played prior to the CFPB, fight regulation, and oversight. The records provided within will clearly identify they lied in their response, and I want action, not just documenting but action against Equifax.

This said, XXXX XXXX was on retainer last year for around 9mos until I discovered they were scamming me. debt collections should have ceased, irregardless if anything was filed w the courthouse. If I must, I will hire another attorney to do it again and I will pay cash. The problem is the bureaus repeated refusal and noncompliance.

I have been fighting the accuracy of my 12 student loans that have been out of default sine last year of XX/XX/XXXX where i did a rehabilitation program with XXXX and all of my loans have been out of default and paid as agreed with a zero balance as i have also consolidated all of the 12 loans into 1 loan! I sent a email to the CEO of XXXX and got a email back from one of his workers! XXXX XXXX! she informed me that i did in fact have them as my servicer as the original bank XXXX sold it to them back in XX/XX/XXXX! Now in XX/XX/XXXXi had lost my job and apartment so I never received the mail and or the welcome letter that XXXX stated that they infect sent out! Well today she emailed me a letter saying they could not removed the payment status of XXXX past due as that event happened before i rehabbed my loans although XXXX the ORIGINAL bank has done so once i completed my program, but yet XXXX XXXX is saying they can NOT! In the welcome letter that XXXX XXXX sent me it Clearly states that XXXX sold them only 3 of the 12 loans! Which i still never received that letter, she emailed it to me today to show they had a letter but there was no proof to show it was actually mailed out but i would not have gotten it as I was not living at that address. It shows that these loans are supposed to fall of my report next year XX/XX/XXXX! but these 12 accounts that are not even theirs are showing 120 days past due is making it hard for me to get a home. I sent a goodwill letter and have had no luck! But with the information I have they only brought 3 of the 12 loans.
