Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Nelnet, Inc. (CO)

In XX/XX/2023 I called Nelnet, my student loan servicer, to switch my payment plan from the graduated repayment plan ( plan that starts with a low payment and incrementally increases over the years ) to a standard repayment plan ( set payment amount for the duration of the loan lifecycle ). The individual I spoke to said she would be able to switch my plan without issue, and also remove my deferment because I was automatically placed on it without wanting it. I wait for over a month and find that my plan has not been switched over. 

I call back again, this time on hold for over an hour. I was told that the prior customer service representative did not execute the plan switch correctly. She promised she would have it corrected. Then put me on hold for more time to speak with her supervisor and then told me it was corrected. I asked for a confirmation and this individual told me it would be coming. I keep checking back to confirm whether my account has been corrected, and of course, it had not. 

So I called back again, for a third time, now on hold for over an HOUR AND A HALF, this time practically begging for help. This representative told me yet another error had occurred, and they switched me to the same plan that I was already on? How does that make sense? I stated multiple times and very slowly which plan I needed to be on. She said it was corrected, that a confirmation would be coming, and to wait a few days for the change to reflect in my account. 

I waited. And waited, until about two weeks pass by and I log into my account to find that it is completely messed up. My account says my next payment due is around {$190.00}, much lower than what I should be paying, and that three of my loans have been placed back into deferment without my knowledge or consent. I was so furious it almost brought me to tears. I decided to call back then was told by the IVR that the wait time was over an hour long. 

At this point I need help because I can not get this resolved on my own. I am not a borrower who is looking to defer my loans or find my way out of an obligation. I want to pay these loans down and not get buried in interest, and I am doing my best to get on a plan that will allow me to stay ahead of interest and pay these down in a manner I can afford. 

Nelnet 's incompetence creates serious risk for borrowers. I am at risk for getting buried in interest by setting payments so low, combined with a lack of transparency on how to make a principal payment to offset this nightmare, I don't know how to protect myself from a financial harm I am trying to avoid and Nelnet has represented as being available to me without additional approval processes. I need my account corrected immediately because the outcome of this could result in months and even years of hardship. 

Please help.

Company: PNC Bank N.A. (IN)

I was about to make a purchase via XXXX for {$4.00} each for XXXX face cream products. After I read that I would be automatically billed monthly for {$79.00} I IMMEDIATELY closed the window, closed XXXX, and did NOT complete the transaction. Later I see XXXX charges from this company for {$120.00} and {$120.00}. I called PNC and they canceled my debit card, filed a fraud claim, and refunded my money. Then they reversed their decision and paid the criminals, taking the money out of my account again. I called again XX/XX/2022 and spoke with a supervisor who said not to worry, that I did not authorize the purchase, I never received any product, I filed fraud immediately when it happened, and notified my bank. My money was once again returned to my account from PNC, and I thought it was all taken care of. Come XX/XX/2022 PNC once again reversed their decision and took MY MONEY out of my checking and paid the criminals for stealing my money. I noticed the reversal and called thr bank on XXXX XXXX weekend and told I could leave a msg with the fraud dept. A supervisor did call me back, told me she would look into this nonsense and told me that she had seen a lot of fraud like this claiming people had actually made a purchase when they in fact never hit the final purchase button. This PNC fraud supervisor told me its a click bait, that they record my keys so even when i backed out and never made the final purchase button that they STOLE my financial info and illegally made a purchase stealing my money! She went on to say that in my case they could not reach the company by phone as it was fake, they had a bogus website, and did not reply to their inquiries. When I called approximately XXXX XXXX I was told that the time to file a claim had passed. Ah no it hasn't, this is the SAME FRAUD CLAIM, not a new claim! I want these crooks punished and stopped from robbing poor people like me!

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (IL)

This mortgage was moved from XXXX XXXX  ( old account at XXXX  XXXX ) to Chase ( letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating new account number is XXXX ) effective XX/XX/XXXX. I have tried to log in online on XXXX, but was unable to as it was stating the account was not yet active. I called yesterday ( XXXX ) and was told that my mortgage was not active yet and would not be until around XX/XX/XXXX. 
With XXXX, I historically paid at the beginning of each month and paid more than the balance due - Chase can not take a payment from me until the mortgage is moved, however, I am being charged interest. I believe this is unfair to be charged interest on a mortgage that I am trying to make a payment on for the additional 7 days between XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.
