Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MD)

Complaint:
I bank with Bank of America and I have been noticing lately that they have been charging me overdraft fees for things they never use to charge before and this is REALLY causing a financial burden on me. On  XXXX  I had  XXXX  dollars in my account I needed gas. For as long as I can remember and everyone in the world I know takes advantage of the fact that you can fill your car up with  XXXX  dollar in your account. I 've done this for years and never once been charged a fee. On  XXXX  I transferred  XXXX  dollars to my savings and I had  XXXX  dollars left in my checking and I filled my car with my debit card that 's linked to my checking. I filled up for  XXXX  dollars. When my  XXXX    XXXX    XXXX  card transation posted Bank of America gave me a OD FEE of  XXXX  dollars because they said I transferred the  XXXX  that had I never transerferried the  XXXX  and left the  XXXX  in the account and then got the  XXXX  in gas it would 've never triggered an overdraft fee. WHAT SENSE DOES THAT MAKE ITS STILL A DEBIT PURCHASE AND IM STILL OVERDRWING THE ACCOUNT EITHER WAY. They refuse to refund it and it 's not right why ca n't I trensfer my own money when I want to. This was not a reoccurring debit charge and it was n't ACH charge. Also on  XXXX  I had and ACH trigger for  XXXX  BOA returned as they should because there were no funds in the account, but the merchant  XXXX   XXXX  charged my account in error. They even sent me an email stating their systems are down and my payment was n't supped to be til  XXXX   XXXX  not  XXXX   XXXX . I called boa and asked them to please refund the fee due to merchant error and they refused they said I ca n't file a claim and present documentation on the charge because it was n't paid. That 's ridiculous. So charge your customer  XXXX  dollars add more financial strain to them when they have documentation that the charge was to come out  XXXX   XXXX .

Looking into our accounts, our bank paid the full amount above, we received a notification of the withdrawal and the credit card account shows it being paid, however, the payment on their end is " on hold ''. So we have no access to our credit card, the money came out of our bank account 5 days ago and has been credited to our account on the credit card website. It is barlaycard. I have been trying to call them- yesterday was on hold for over an hour, and now as I write this am still on hold for over two hours. We paid our bill on time in full 5 days ago, why is our payment " on hold '' why is the money out of our bank, why wont they answer the phone? God forbid this was some poor soul in a real crisis that needed their credit card asap!

Product: Student loan — Non-federal student loan
Issue: Can't repay my loan — Can't decrease my monthly payments
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (NY)

Complaint:
I contacted Navinet to gain advisement for the repayment options of the current standing of my loan. I have made my payments faithfully since the original date of XXXX XXXX. Please note my intention is only to resolve my debts. 

My last payment of XXXX was made on XXXX XXXX XXXX. Shortly before that payment was automatically withdrawn I was contacted stating that my loan amount would be increased to 2 % which is beyond what I can afford at this time. 

I was told it was the only option I had and therefore no payment has been set up for XX/XX/XXXX or XXXX XXXX. 

During my call to try to resolve this matter, a supervisior proceed to question " what am I doing to change my situation '' asking have I considered getting another job or a Roommate which left me feeling very challenged as a responsible individual only wishing to gain a resolution to my dilemma. I currently work for the XXXX XXXX XXXX as a XXXX beyond my contracted hours daily at a minimum of 10 hours per day to receive overtime to make a living and to satisfy my living expenses. One would presume that years of service would entitle them to financial increase year to year, however in my case that has not happened yet. I felt that the supervisors questions were very inappropriate given the information I had just given him regarding my current situation. 

Ultimately was simply reaching out to gain some support to address this matter. I asvised them I am able to continue on the 1 % repayment program totaling into {$210.00} per month, however to no avail.

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

Complaint:
For almost 2 months now I have had issues with MyFedLoans incorrectly charging my account. I am in " paid ahead status '' on all of my loans, but despite this, they've told me their computer system does an equation ( which they don't know ), that calculated my loans would not be paid off in time so my monthly amount went up almost {$200.00}. Despite countless phone calls and conversations with managers that said they saw the problem, would work on it personally, and call me back directly, they issue was never fixed. I took it upon myself to refinance with a different company who paid off all but XXXX of my loans serviced through my fed loans ( I did not switch XXXX loans because they had a lower interest rate with Myfedloans ). I saw my full direct payment was going to come out of my account from Myfedloans despite having most of my loans newly paid off. They told me they couldn't stop the payment, but if I called back after the fact they could place it all on the loan of my choosing. I called back and they said that they couldn't change anything. After my loans were paid off my monthly amount due initially went from {$1600.00}, to {$110.00}. Now after a few days the computer has reset it back to {$1600.00}. Also, despite being paid off the system has not yet marked my loans " paid in full '' ( 15 days later ). I have discussed this staff at MyFedLoans who told me it would take a full 20-30 days to mark as paid in full, and that I " over paid '' on some of the loans and the computer would reflect that by placing that over payment on my remaining loans.

I have absolutely ZERO confidence that this company is going to be able to correctly fix any of the issues that I am having. Their customer service representatives have consistently tried to explain at length issues with my account they clearly do not understand and make absolutely no sense. Calling and speaking with their " supervisors '', does absolutely nothing to resolve any issues. I've now over paid on loans that should reflect being paid off and they are STILL trying to charge me large sums of money every month even when I have such a small loan remaining. I desperately need help. I need a definitive solution for these on-going issues.

I have maintain careful records and for your benefit, and as a gesture of goodwill final attempt to have you clear up this matter. You have 15 days to cure. How are you guys reporting or verifying these accounts to the CRAs when it lacked underlying documentation.

In 2000, the FTC held that the FCRA barred a debt buyer from " verifying a tradeline disputed by a consumer when it didn't posses the original documents. FTC allegations was that upon receiving a CDV form from a CRA that the debt buyer ( s ) and furnisher ( s ) they can not use the PCM for verification does not constitute an " investigation '' for purpose of section 1681s-2 ( b13 ), when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information reported by debt buyer ( s ) or furnisher ( s ), they should either verify the information with the original documents bearing a signature within the time period set forth in the FCRA or take all necessary steps to deleted the information from the files of all consumer reporting agencies to which the information was reported within 5 business days after receiving the consumer dispute, notify all consumer reporting agencies to which the information has been provided that the information is to be deleted from the file of the consumer who has disputed the account. 
Consent Decree Order, Section II. 
As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a print out of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification.

I am again formally requesting a copy of VERIFIABLE PROOF ( of original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file ( Section 609 ( a ) of the accounts listed on my original letter. If not you must remove the accounts listed above. These accounts have hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MA)

Complaint:
Hi HAPPY SATURDAY! - and how are you doing? Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but Ive disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and a thorough and in-dept investigation. Ive disputed and I havent received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. 
Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. Im extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable Info. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher. 

What I am disputing : The account you have reported to the three credit bureaus. My basis for this dispute is that I have no knowledge of this account.
