Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (OK)

My daughter and me went to XXXX to go to the XXXX. I have a credit card with Chase bank with a credit limit of {$20000.00}. Plenty of available credit for the task. When we got there we tried to buy tickets at auction online. We had several good opportunities to buy tickets at a good price but my credit card kept declining. After a number of attempts I finally called Chase and they said they declined the purchases because of " fraud ''. There was no fraud. I have always paid my bills on time. As a result of this egregious violation of the implied customer contract we lost several purchase opportunities and ended up paying over {$1000.00} more for tickets than we would have if Chase honored their promise to me their customer. God help me if I were to refuse to pay them for no reason. They should be fined for this blatant dishonoring of the promised service they sell to customers. Given the usurious interest rates they charge one would think fraud prevention would be their problem to solve and not burdened on the backs of unsuspecting customers. Their behavior is criminally abusive

Company: LENDER LIVE (NY)

Lender Live was my mortgage servicer up until they transferred my loan. Lender Live sent my escrow payments to the wrong municipality, creating a large deficiency in my escrow and then notifying they were more than doubling my payments. When I notified them they had made a mistake, they never explained what happened, only that they needed to request refunds from the municipalities they sent my money to so they would be able to pay the correct taxes ( due to their error my property and school taxes were paid late ). They have yet to correct the issue, and provided the wrong escrow information to my new loan servicer so I am yet again trying to rectify the issue that Lender Live created.

Company: Movement Mortgage LLC (NC)

I has been working with a loan officer named XXXX who at the time was working for XXXX. I had met her through a first time home buyer class, I started the process in XX/XX/2016. I literally talked to XXXX at least 2x a week! I was pre approved and then approved for the loan. I found a house that I had built from the ground up, I had moved my whole family which includes my XXXX son and my husband from living in a nice apartment uptown. She told me I did n't have to put any money down, so she then moved to movement mortgage which she never let me know I had to reach out to her again! Which she finally responded about a week later! She then ran everything again and told me I was approved for the same loan amount. This was around XX/XX/XXXX, now in XX/XX/XXXX there was a change in the way lenders processed student loans which I was aware of and she told me that I had nothing to worry about, I said okay and continued to do what she asked me to do. About 2 weeks before closing she tells me that I wo n't be able to close on the loan unless i get rid of my car or find a new job paying me more! 2 weeks!!!!! I moved my family! At this point I was livid, stressed and depressed! One of my friends who had tried to work with her left and found another loan officer who wa able to approve her at a much higher rate thing XXXX initially had! My friend told me to ask her about the an Fha case number so that the 1 % of my student loans would or be counted, so I asked XXXX and come to find out she never even put the case number on my file! So I lost my house and I was homeless for about a month because she never entered in a case number to keep me grandfathered in to avoid the 1 % being counted against me! All she could say was " I 'm sorry I thought I did ''. I contacted her manager he said that she has had several complaints prior to me ( manager from XXXX ). She also did the same thing to a co-worker! I called XXXX about a month later and her manger said that i was never even approved they have no paperwork on me! I literally signed over 100 documents and arill have them showing what I was approved for. This was by far the worst experience ever! I would never wish this on anyone! XXXX was not truthful at all and she seemed to be a scam artist! XXXX and movement mortgage did nothing to ensure the protection of their customer ( me ) or coach her on anything! Because as stated both parties said she has had several complaints and did nothing. I hope this gets to the right place to avoid anyone else need scammed by her. Oh i also worked with a woman at XXXX for the credit portion of the loan and she told me that XXXX had moved over 5x in a year to different lenders! The consultant was so upset because she knows that XXXX is good for this.

I got a mortgage from PNC Mortgage for my home. When applying for the mortgage I was told by my loan officer, XXXX XXXX, that I would be able to make bi-weekly payments that would be applied to the loan immediately and not sit in a holding account until the second payment arrived. I am now finding out that PNC 's bi-weekly payment plan holds the first payment in an account until the second payment is made, forming one monthly payment. Being able to make bi-weekly payments that are applied immediately to the loan was the main reason I chose PNC, but now I have learned that I was lied to. The conversation I had with XXXX was on a recorded line and I asked him this on XXXX separate occasions. This is the second issue that I 've had with PNC making false advertisements/claims to me on a recorded line XXXX XXXX call would have been around XXXX XXXX give or take a week ).

Company: LoanCare, LLC (WI)

Hello, Recently my FHA loan was transferred to LoanCare, XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. It appears that they are trying to illegally obtain additional escrow " padding '' payments. It is my understanding that only XXXX of the total anticipated annual disbursements are able to be required by the lender as a cushion at the beginning of the year before escrow payments are made throughout the year. Which in my case would be an {$800.00} cushion as I have {$4800.00} in total yearly disbursements. 

On XXXX XXXX XXXX I received an annual escrow account statement telling me that I have an escrow shortage and telling me that I need to add an additional {$390.00} to my monthly escrow payment to make up the shortage even though I have {$860.00} currently in my account. This would bring my total monthly escrow payment to about $ XXXX/mo. Which would result in over {$8800.00} at the end of XXXX when you add in my current balance. It appears that they are requiring me to keep a full 12 month cushion in the account instead of the maximum federal law requirement of XXXX of my total yearly disbursements as previously stated above. 

Under XXXX XXXX XXXX my monthly payment was XXXX and nothing has changed in terms of my yearly escrow disbursements. Under LoanCare they are increasing my monthly payment to XXXX to make up for what they are calling an escrow shortage which is clearly unlawful since it is requiring far more than a 2 month padding for the year. 

I have contacted LoanCare multiple times and they are unwilling to resolve the issue and keep saying I have an escrow shortage. Please advise on how to resolve this problem Thank you XXXX

My credit score is being lowered simply because I have an inquiry. I 'm a full time student in a XXXX program and have applied to private and subsidized lenders for student loan funds. As a result, my credit score is effected because they automatically check my credit when applying. In addition, I 've applied to a couple of credit cards which appear to have better interest and/or point program, but not necessarily going to take the line of credit. THIS DOES NOT MAKE ME A RISK!!!!! If I 'm not paying my bills or paying late I can understand that having a impact on my credit score, but IF I AM PAYING MY BILLS AND PAYING ON TIME, WHY SHOULD MY CREDIT SCORE GO DOWN!!!!!!!!!!

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (GA)

I have had a car loan through Ally Financial Inc. for three years. I have had many issue 's with this company starting soon after. There have been a total of at least XXXX checks that have been " lost '' by this company. Forcing me to reissue the check. The call center for this company is located off-shore. The individuals working in the call center do not speak clear, concise English. They are unable or unwilling to help. Though they have no trouble in using many different bully tactics to intimidate and threaten. I have received up to 10 calls in a day. These calls are robo-dialed, when I answer the phone, I have had to hold on for up to 3-5 minutes to waiting on XXXX of these individuals to come onto the phone. The calls can come every 15 minutes, or every two hours. This company states they may record calls for quality assurance and/or training purposes. However, if told that they are being recorded, they state that they can NOT be recorded. I attempted to be nice in the beginning. I have now become just as rude and mean to these individuals in the same manner as they are to me over the phone. Ally encourages and condones the questionable business tactics used by these call centers. The one time that I did speak to an individual who was located in Texas. I was called " racist '' for having the utter audacity to complain about the inability of the off-shore call center to speak clearly and their inability to answer the most simple of questions. Now, for the first time, my loan has went past the 30 days, due to the fact, yet another payment has been lost, not received or not posted in a timely manner. Which adds another late fee, in addition to being reported to the credit bureau ( s ). I have resorted to sending payment with a delivery confirmation, which is an additional expense of XXXX-XXXX dollars, when I am able to. It is my firm believe that this company is conveniently loosing my payment in retaliation for my not quietly accepting the treatment by the associates, agents, employee and/or representatives of this company. The bully tactics, harassment, intimidation and threats, which are both express and implied, are going to have to stop. If this company expects respect then they need to show a little respect. The added stress that is directly related to Ally and their less than professional business tactics have started to affect my health. I would like for an investigation to be conducted concerning this business. This business needs to supply the requested documentation. I do not believe that a company can loose XXXX or more payments in three years. The bullying and revenge/retaliation tactics need to stop. I am considering bringing a legal suit against this company and will include the mental and emotional distress caused by this company.
