Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA (FL)

Under the Federal Save Plan my monthly payment due is XXXX. The payment is applied between a consolidated subsidized and unsubsidized loans XXXX and XXXX. The amount applied to XXXX is XXXX each month. The amount applied to XXXX is XXXX each month. 

On XX/XX/2024, I made a bulk payment of XXXX. The XXXX had XXXX applied as interest only. The XXXX had XXXX applied as interest only. 

I had wanted the other XXXX that made up the full XXXX to be applied to my loans as principal. 

I was told by multiple individuals at Mohela, that they applied part of my over payment which was XXXX to the consolidated XXXX ( unsubsidized loan segment ) on top of the XXXX that was due for XX/XX/2024. Mohela stated that they applied the XXXX amount because that was the accrued interest as of the date I made my payment. 

I don't disagree that I am accruing interest daily but it wasn't interest that was in arrears, thus as I understand simple interest loans, my overpayment of XXXX should be applied in its entirety to the principal. My statement would then cut for the XX/XX/XXXX payment due on or around XX/XX/XXXX. 

With transparency being a necessity, If I haven't been issued a statement showing I am due for the interest accrued, then how can Mohela apply that to XXXX to interest as they did. 

In summary if Mohela is able to arbitrarily apply an overpayment against accrued interest before the next bill cycle closes, even after I asked to have it applied to principal only, then this is a problem. I have reviewed as much as I could about payment application under the SAVE plan and I did not find any language that clearly explains over payment application.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA)

Approximately {$1500.00} in fraudulent unauthorized charges using stolen debit card number over the course of about 2 years. Wells Fargo allowed these obviously fraudulent charges ( all out of state, most out of the country to what appear to be private XXXX accounts ). 
Reported to Wells Fargo upon discovery in XX/XX/2018. 
Wells Fargo refunded a tiny portion ( about {$70.00} ) to cover the first 60 days of the fraud as they are legally obligated to do ) but refused any recompense on the remainder. They also mishandled the investigation, leaving approximately {$300.00} or so out of the claim due to some sort of mathematical or transcription error that I was unable to get to the bottom of. 
Was told today ( XX/XX/18 ) that I had escalated as high as I could go and that they would not re-open my case.

Since the debt is now with a third-party collection agency, it has already been charged off. As outlined in Tax Topic 431, this represents a certificate of indebtedness, which is categorized as income. It's important to note that income is not reportable on my credit report.

" If your debt is forgiven or discharged for less than the full amount owed, the debt is considered canceled for the forgiven or discharged amount that you no longer need to pay. Cancellation of a debt may occur if the creditor can't collect, or gives up on collecting, the amount you're obligated to pay. If you own property securing a debt, cancellation of the debt may occur due to foreclosure, repossession, voluntary transfer of the property to the lender, abandonment of the property, or a mortgage modification.

I left {$400.00} in my account. I had about {$48.00} saved up in Credit Karma Save and {$400.00} in my Spend accounts. Last week, I got a call from some random number, with an automated voice claiming to be Credit Karma and saying there's fraud activity going on with my account and they wanted me to verify a sequence of numbers in a text they sent me over the phone.
