Product: Consumer Loan — Installment loan
Issue: Problems when you are unable to pay — 
Company: Duvera Billing Services, LLC (VA)

I took out a loan through Duvera Financial to finance a gas scooter so that I could get back and forth from work. After having to contact the CFPB over Duvera changing my interest rate and payment amounts agreed on, their were no issues. 

Then this past week, on XXXX/XXXX/15, I logged into the payment portal, and made my monthly payment, as I have every month, XXXX single payment a month. However, on XXXX/XXXX/15 at approx. XXXX, I noticed that the payment I submitted had processed through, but an additional payment was taken out of my bank account for the same amount, on XXXX/XXXX/15. I immediately called Duvera Financial, and was placed on hold for XXXX minutes before being told by a " XXXX '', that I made XXXX payments. 

When I stated that I only made the XXXX payment on XXXX/XXXX/15, she instantly started saying that I did no such thing and placed a XXXX payment. After pointing out that I only make XXXX payment a month several times, she proceeded to state that I had set up an Auto-pay on the account ( which I did no such thing, as every payment made has required me logging in and scheduling the payment up until this point ). She then said that she would put in a request to cancel the payment, and that I should see the payment reversed in 3-4 business days. 

I just contacted my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) to be told that they do not see any pending transfers on the account in question, and that they do not see anything from Duvera. So I contacted Duvera yet again at XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15. After another XXXX minutes of being on hold, I finally got someone who would not give her name when asked. When asked about the status of the refund for the pending amount, she told me that " You called us on XXXX/XXXX/15, it 's only been XXXX days. It takes time to reverse the payment. We do n't know when it 's going to be credited back ''. I asked for a supervisor, was placed on hold, then a guy answered the phone and said that it will be another XXXX business days for the refund on the payment. 

As of now, I 'm accruing NSF fees through my bank becuase of the XXXX payment that they took out, because my bank processed the payments that were due to be taken out at the same time as the XXXX payment was processed. Now as it sits today, I 'm owing my bank {$140.00} from bills that were processed out and NSF fees that have been accrued by Duvera taking a XXXX payment without my authorization.

Issue: Shopping for a loan or lease — 
Company: VW Credit, Inc (CA)

I was nearing the end of my first vehicle lease and went to XXXX XXXX XXXX to discuss my lease end options. The car had some obvious cosmetic damages that I pointed out to the sales representative. After speaking with the sales representative, he assured me that leasing another vehicle was my best option in order to avoid having to pay for excess wear and tear on the previous vehicle, so that 's what I did. 4 months into my new lease I got a bill from VW credit for all of the damages on the old car, over $ XXXX. I was sure that there as some mistake and went to the dealership. While there we reviewed my contract together and the lease termination was processed as a turn in, instead of a trade in, thus leaving me financially responsible for both cars. They denied ever telling me that I would n't have to pay for the damage on the car and since leaving there I have been unable to get a hold of the XXXX, they have been incredible non-responsive. I have filed a complaint through VW, the debt is now with collections and I do n't have the money to pay it. For someone without money for a down payment, or to buy the old car, it would make XXXX fiscal sense for me to lease a new car. The option that I thought that I was taking was the only way for me to pay nothing out of pocket. VW offered to make my final payments on my old car, and my first payment on my new car, and nothing down. It was the only way for me to not spend any money in the transition. At the least, I would have had the car inspected and opted to fix it myself through a certified mechanic friend before returning it to VW because it is common knowledge that the most expensive repairs are through the dealership. All of this was in XXXX of 2014.

Im waiting on approval for the sale of my current home while, I 'm packed up, have utilities already transferred, already spent {$3500.00} in repairs to this home, the buyer had been approved twice and it 's stuck in underwriting. I 'm without cable, been eating out since everything is boxed and my life is upside down. I 've even changed my address. The owners of the home I 'm purchasing are also waiting for this to be resolved. They keep asking for documentation from 2006, now it 's being held up for an addmendment on a child support agreement. His lawyer confirmed its legal. His ex-wife even Confirmed the agreement. Everytime they ask for a piece of documentation they get 48-72 hours to review to give a final decision. Our closing should have happened on XXXX XXXX, movers had to be rescheduled over and over, re-scheduled vacation, dog boarding and other plans had the be halted. There 's no protection for home buyers or sellers. An approval letter should mean approved but that letter, nor the XXXX approval means anything. Underwriters are putting families at risk, holding up our lives, affecting are health by stress that is not nessesary. Why should n't they have to do this work up front? There 's got to be some type of law that protects families from Going through this chaos, of waiting and waiting. I feel its neglect, and home buyers and sellers suffer because of the process that underwriters are given to undertake. They are neglecting time frames, questioning documentation that they are not trained to question. I can tell you if you dig deep enough you will find bad in everyone. No one is perfect and the digging and investigation has to stop somewhere. It 's as if the Mortgage Industry, IRS, and the FBI have merged together to create a process that does n't work.
