These fraudulent charges were made to my account and I opened a dispute with Barclays. I called almost every week looking for an update as they never provided provisional credit and caused my credit score to fall XXXX points. 

They took almost 2 months to investigate and claimed these balance transfers are valid because " I have an account on my credit report where the balance transfer was sent ''. This is outright not true. Such an account does not exist.

I opened a new Truist Simple Business Checking account using promo code XXXX at the branch on XX/XX/2023. The code was successfully applied and can be found at offers.truist.com. The promotion terms say : " XXXX. Make {$1500.00} or more in qualifying deposits into the new business checking account within 30 days of account opening. XXXX. Enroll and Sign In to Truist Online Banking for Business within 30 days of account opening. " I have completed both requirements ( please see attached screenshots for proof ). However, it still shows " Enrollment Pending '' offers.truist.com rather than " Reward Pending ''. I called Truist XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023 on a recorded line. Even though the agents I talked to confirmed that I have enrolled in this offer and I have completed the XXXX requirements ( please check the recordings on the recorded line ), they can not help me get the {$300.00} bonus. They just transferred me to another agent again and again, which put me in a loop. Would you please investigate and resolve this issue? Thanks.

Issue: Threatened to contact someone or share information improperly — Talked to a third-party about your debt
Company: PMT Solutions, LLC. (WA)

On XXXX a caller at XXXX XXXX XXXX gave a third party personal info about my debt and was negotiating my debt with the third party without my knowledge or permission. He also did not disclose he was on a recorded line or attempt to verify my name, SSN, DOB, or Property Address before giving my personal info. Anyone person can call this company and get any debtor info without hesitation. I brought up that it was illegal and attempted to settle the debt he continued yelling at me. I asked to speak to his supervisor and I was hung up on. I researched the company and called back I spoke to the office manager and the office manager did nothing. The office manager would also not give me the attorneys name and said they dont have an attorney which I believe is also illegal. Additionally my contract did not state that I would pay collection fees and the debt collector admitted that there were collection fees added to the acct. I believe this is a sham to try and get me to pay more money so they can make more money rather then splitting the account with their client as their client agreement states.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA (NY)

I paid one of my loans ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, 7.08 % interest rate ) in full on XX/XX/XXXX and received confirmation from MOHELA that the payment was accepted. I continued to make payments on XXXX of my other loans ( XXXX XXXX XXXX with a 6.6 % interest rate that was reduced to 6.35 % due to XXXX XXXX of which I have been enrolled in since XXXX ). Following the resumption of student loan interest, my remaining loans ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX & XXXX ) were properly reflected in my account through XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX times to advise that my XXXX XXXX was scheduled by MOHELA to come out on XXXX different dates ( XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ), asked for it to come out on XXXX date to prevent issues, and was assured that it would come out in XXXX lump sum payment on XXXX date ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Despite this, a payment for XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX & XXXX came out on XX/XX/XXXX and a payment for XXXX XXXX XXXX came out on XX/XX/XXXX. I called on XX/XX/XXXX and was told by the rep this would be remedied and would start coming out on the XXXX of each month. 

My account information was then erroneously changed by MOHELA so that XXXX XXXX XXXX ( paid in full ) was reapplied to my account and is currently accruing interest, while XXXX XXXX XXXX was put into a purported " credit '' status so that I couldn't pay it in full. Moreover, I received a delinquency notice ( and purported delinquency forbearance ) despite the XXXX XXXX taking out the full amount of the payment for all active loans. I called MOHELA repeatedly about this issue and was told on XX/XX/XXXX by a supervisor that it would be rectified within XXXX to XXXX business days ; however it has not been corrected. I then called about the interest accruing on my account based on erroneous principal balances and was told that my account would be put into a forbearance wherein the interest would not accrue. To date, interest continues to accrue on my account and the interest rate on XXXX XXXX XXXX was suddenly changed from the reduced 6.35 % to 6.6 %. Additionally, the representative that I spoke to this evening ( after trying to speak to a supervisor for over XXXX hours to no avail ) told me further incorrect information related to my account : that my interest rate was only to accrue at 6.6 % although my auto debit has been approved and in place since XX/XX/XXXX with multiple correspondences with MOHELA affirming same. 

MOHELA appears to be playing with the numbers because while the overall total balance appears correct, the individual principal balances on the loans remains incorrect and erroneous interest continues to accumulate on my account.

The ONLY negative on my credit report is a late payment to Kohls Department Store. It happened recently and they showed one late payment 3 years ago as well. It is obvious by my credit history that I pay all my credit cards balances off as soon as I receive the bills. I do not and have never agreed to e-mail billing with Kohls. Every time I have called Kohls Credit Card Services, I explained to the Customer Service Representative I wanted paper billing, and they agreed to that. Each time I was aware of a balance due, I paid it off in full. The only time I missed a payment is when I did not receive bills from Kohls. Please refer to my credit history. I should not have late payments documented on my credit report when it was Kohls fault that I did not receive a bill in the mail where I would expect to find it. Please remove the late payment from my credit report.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Rocket Mortgage, LLC (TN)

On XX/XX/XXXX I inquired thru XXXX XXXX for a HELOC ; I was contacted on XX/XX/18 by Quicken loans, I explicitly said I was ONLY interested in a HELOC. He proceeded to tell me we would review my credit, I assumed he had a report thru XXXX XXXX, and after 20 mins on the phone, told me they don't offer HELOCS. 

Then I found out he PULLED my credit without permission ; he put his manager on the phone who told me that he told me we would " review my credit '' was proper for getting consent. 

I am an XXXX, I ONLY wanted a HELOC and had I been told by XXXX XXXX NLMS # XXXX that they don't offer the product, I would have ended the conversation as I can provide an application thru my company for much less in costs and rate than his proposed first mortgage which is not what I asked for. 

Then his Director XXXX XXXX NLMS # XXXX told me they do have HELOC 's but only for XXXX clients, and that he was within his right to pull my credit by saying " now we will review your credit '' even if he had NOT asked my up front if I was a XXXX client, because they do offer it to them, I just did not qualify. 

Had I been asked of my assets and if I had a XXXX account and been told those are the only clients they offer HELOCS too, we would have ended the conversation there, again I would not and did not authorize a credit pull on my report ; and wouldn't if the specific program I was after was not available to me or offered to people only with the XXXX account as I do not have one and would have said so had I been informed or asked. 

I asked them to remove the inquiry, they denied me request, I explained that had they done the due diligence and told me the requirements for a HELOC and that they didn't do them, we would not even had, had a conversation that would have required any further investigation. 

I was told by XXXX that as of the last day or so Quicken stopped doing HELOCS and by XXXX that, that was not true, but only for select clients with those accounts. 

This is ridiculous, I was mis-led, my credit was pulled without explicit permission or consent and then they passed it off on me as though it were my fault. I have a background in lending and can not imagine how they treat people who don't, and I made that very clear to XXXX in the beginning of the conversation, that I am a licensed XXXX  and only in need of a HELOC. 

XXXX told me they are the country 's largest company and with over 150 programs, this is " Just how they do things '' .... UNREAL!
