Company: Nelnet, Inc.

Complaint:
Company withheld my insurance license ( my license is required to work ) and would not allow to renew unless they were able to add thousands to balance. I was held XXXX by being denied my insurance license renewal until they could add fees and increase my balance substantially. I was not able to find other employment due to market conditions. I should owe around {$10000.00}, however my balance due to these fees and predator tactics I now owe close to {$30000.00}. 

I need help addressing this predatory behavior! 
Thank you

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2019 two ( 2 ) payments were made and posted to my Citi credit card. One in the amount of {$2500.00}, and the other payment in the amount of {$200.00}. The {$2700.00} paid my credit card off. Once the card was paid off an offer came up to take a citi flex loan of {$9500.00}. The flex loan would be offered at a rate of 7.99 % and be paid in 34 payments. It clearly showed this on my XXXX statement. This then changed the following month. {$2500.00} was being charged 21.99 % and the remaining {$7000.00} was being charged at a rate of 7.99 %. The payment stated in the Citi Flex Loan was {$230.00} each month. Now I am paying approximately {$360.00} a month versus the {$230.00}. 

This account needs to be put on the Citi Flex loan that I signed and agreed to at 7.99 % and {$230.00} a month. 
Ive contacted Citi 3 times without resolve.

Complaint:
Around XXXX to XXXX, I have been seeing a lot of advertising on Credit Karma. They are sending all sorts of pre approval 's telling me that I'm pre approved for personal loans, credit cards and that I can refinance my car. All this to my email. I see these same offers every time I log in to check my credit scores. After some months have past and receiving so many offers that I was pre approved, I applied, through Credit Karma. I shared this Information with friends and family to sign up for Credit Karma to get same pre approved offers, if not better. I applied in or around XXXX and got denied for 2 credit cards and a personal loan. I was very upset and devastated. I was lied to and marketed for several months. Credit Karma told me that I was pre approved and they told me a lie! I was severely stressed and sick for weeks. Anytime I see something about pre approvals I get scared away. I no longer check my credit because of this.

Complaint:
I entered into a modification of my mortgage in XX/XX/2022 and sent in the first payment of the loan to Carrington Mortgage Services. The next month after it was recorded and second payment received they reported to the credit bureaus that I was in foreclosure and delinquent. The damage to my credit report was irreparable. They continued reporting this way for 2 more months. They are sending collection notices and trying to get me to agree to a short sale by email to avoid foreclosure when they receive and process my monthly payments. They are also submitting work orders to subcontractors to change my locks and trespass on my property.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY

Complaint:
To whom it may concern, You already have copies of my statements from a prior report, copies from the past year that I just recently demanded and received from American Express Blue. Let it be known that I was communicating with a XXXX, recorded on their end, who submitted a stack of statements from the past year because I wasn't receiving them. These statements were requested several times to no avail. Upon our discussion, I asked what my interest rate was and he said it was XXXX percent. I asked why when I was at XXXX percent nor did I receive any notification of such interest increase because I did not have my past statements. He said, the promotional rate has expired and based on the economy, they are required to raise the interest. I understood to a certain extent based on the economy. However, I filed a complaint thereafter based on this and now in my XXXX, XXXX ( finally received ), my interest rate jumped from XXXX to XXXX percent, On the XXXX, XXXX statement the interest jumped again from XXXX to XXXX percent. If this isn't retaliation than I don't know what is. This does not happen! A full investigation is necessary and I would appreciate it if you would ask them for the telephone recording as well as the XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, XXXX statements. Those letters received from my past complaint were never sent to me! Ironically, you were sent copies of letters and statements that I have been requesting and only to be told, the post office may have lost it. Surely, the postman isn't perfect, but to tell me that in entire year the postman lost an entire year 's worth of statements is unconscionable!

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX i mailed my 1st dispute via certified mail XXXX to XXXX, PA XXXX marked delivered on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX. They responded in a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX saying they were unable to process my request. I resubmitted dispute which tracking XXXX shows delivered on XX/XX/XXXX. The completely ignored my request until my 3rd letter they received on XX/XX/XXXX via XXXX. They responded in letter dated XX/XX/XXXX which surprisingly stated our records show that we have previously completed an investigation as verified by data furnisher. When in fact they stated on XX/XX/XXXX letter saying unable to process my request and my 2nd letter was ignored? I am confused. Now in this last letter they mentioned the rule " As outlined in the FCRA, unless you have additional relevant information that supports the change you are requesting ( i.e., a letter from creditor or courthouse .... ) we are not required to reinvestigate the same item again at this time. '' My 4th and final letter which I will attach contained a letter from US Bankruptcy Court Office of the Clerk XXXX District of Florida dated XX/XX/XXXX. My letter was once more ignored. Recently, I applied for credit and was denied due to this information. Upon receiving my report as requested from them dated XX/XX/XXXX, this public record is still not removed USBK Court Southern Florida. I have been more than understanding with the changes with COVID-19 might delay processes but the rules are the rules and now I believe that I have been taken advance of. They have failed to maintain the regulations and I need this public record deleted. Thank you!

Company: DISCOVER BANK

Complaint:
Online Discover account shows transaction activity as either pending transactions or posted transactions. When Discover moved one transaction from pending to posted they also left it in pending list so a single charge ( {$1000.00} ) shows both as pending and posted. I have spent over an hour on line chatting with customer service over 2 days but they won't fix this - clearly a system error. CS confirmed that there is only 1 charge not duplicate, but say they can not remove the pending and that I can't dispute it until it becomes posted. But it will never become posted because it already has been posted but not removed from pending list in error. Discover provides no way for me to address this beyond simple chat service who won't help solve the problem.

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint:
I made a purchase in XXXX via XXXX using my Chime XXXX XXXXr card. Unfortunately I never received the product ( it was sent back to the merchant ), but I was still being charged. XXXX couldn't do anything & the vendor was refusing to refund my money, so I did a dispute with Chime. Even after providing proof that the item was sent back to the merchant, they closed the dispute in the merchant 's favor. Due to this, I closed the card. A few days later, the merchant FINALLY credited the money back, but since the account was closed, it was sitting in " limbo ''. I was told by multiple representatives and even a supervisor that once all final charges hit ( which made no sense because I couldn't spend what wasn't available on the card ), the funds will be sent to me. First, they said it would be transferred to the checking account that I have open, but then I was told it couldn't be. I was later told a refund check would be sent.. and I'm still WAITING. I filed a complaint with the XXXX and Chime went in circles & the XXXX dispute specialist suggested I make a complaint with the CFPB as well.

Complaint:
Just a few weeks ago, Discover reviewed my Account, and my excellent credit and payment history, and increased my credit limit by {$300.00} to a total of {$2800.00}. I have a XXXX balance. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was told they had done another review, just a few weeks later, and found I had started a new unsecured loan, which was not true, and I had a new negative item, a medical bill. The medical bill was paid but the credit bureaus are slow to remove it. They ignored my excellent credit score and payment history, and the fact that they had given me an increase on my credit limit just a few weeks ago. This is the first time in 35 years of having credit cards that I have seen a company mis-treat their customers this way. They should be investigated.

I read that any inquiries from purchasing an auto loan would be counted as one, instead, my reports are now showing 11 inquiries, one from each bank, if they were pulled within 14 days. 
This is the second time a dealership has shopped for approvals and rates for me that this has happened. 
There should be one report that can be shared with different bank/finance companies that the dealership shares the one report with that shows all three bureaus.
