Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-issue: Transaction was not authorized

Complaint: Dear XXXX, I am filing a complaint against Chase Bank 's decision of the refusal to our chargeback against XXXX XXXX who lured us to make a deposit to their oversea bank in the amount of {$15000.00} on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Half year later, XXXX XXXX closed our trading account and refused us to make a withdrawal. By the XXXX XXXX, we still had over {$70000.00} in that account but can not access to it. 

I told Chase Bank XXXX XXXX employee XXXX that XXXX was doing illegal financial activities in XXXX and they failed to deliver their promised service to their customer. Chase just ignored the fact and even did n't take a investigation. They just simply told me that the time frame to file a chargeback was 120 days and I have passed the valid time frame. I told them I was filing my claim for a refund under the XXXX XXXX XXXX which allow us have 540 days from the date we sent the money when was XXXX XXXX. But XXXX just ignored this Scheme and repeatedly told me I passed 120 days time frame. They even did n't know what XXXX XXXX XXXX is. I suggest them study the XXXX XXXX XXXX and take a close investigation at my case. Otherwise, it 's unfair to me due to Chase Bank 's ignorance.

Consumer complaint received 10/22/2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (Store credit card) with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (NC).
Issue: Struggling to pay your bill
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't work with you while you're going through financial hardship

Complaint: Hello there! 

On Monday, XXXX XXXX, 2017, I contacted the bank who handles the XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, to ask for an account closure and to work a payment plan of a fixed amount until the charge card is paid in full. I was instructed to call the customer service phone number to explain the situation and look for options. 

The representative who answered my phone call, whose name I can not remember, at all times, refused to work out a payment plan based on my hardship situation. Instead, she was insisting more than once, on collecting the debt when I told her that I was about to take care of that before the due date. 

This is not the first time I have problems with XXXX XXXX and they are difficult to work with. All I am asking is for a fixed payment plan between minimum {$25.00} or maximum {$50.00} per month until paid off. The rep at all time did n't consider my offer and instead said to wait until I make the {$40.00} payment due this month to see if the next payment will go for less than usual. 

As soon as I pay off this charge card I will never ever deal with this bank.

Consumer complaint received 11/13/2017 about Vehicle loan or lease (Loan) with NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (CO).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint: I have a car loan with Navy Federal and honestly forgot to reach out to the bank after my loan was approved. Navy Federal advised me that I stated that I would go to the branch to pick up the loan after listening to the calls. 
Navy Federal let the loan sit at the bank for over 3 weeks and did not contact me about the loan. They stated that it is not their policy to reach out to consumers on their loans. It seems a very bad business practice to just not contact a consumer about a loan. Life happens and sometimes a consumer can forget. 
I am very upset that the blame is all on me and that Navy Federal considers this a normal business practice.

Consumer complaint received 05-03-2016 about Credit card () with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (CA).
Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint: I signed up for CareCredit card to pay for dental expenses with no interest if paid on time. I was on auto pay so as not to be late or miss a payment. I was charged more then {$74.00} in interest. Care Credit said the 6 month period was just a promotion. Why would I sign up for a credit card that charges 26.99 % interest, I already have a regular credit card with 14 % I would have used that? Dental offices, etc. promote this card as a way to pay for medical expenses not covered by insurance, easing the financial burden by having free interest for 6 months. It was presented to me as a way to pay for my dental expenses interest free always as long as I paid each bill on time and within 6 months.

Consumer complaint received 10-05-2017 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)) with U.S. BANCORP (WI).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: My husband & I took a Home Equity Line of Credit with US Bank in XX/XX/XXXX. We also took joint life insurance and disability on my husband, XXXX, with the initial loan. My husband had used the insurance for a XXXX XXXX about 10 years ago & I believe the insurance paid slightly over one monthly payment & then luckily XXXX went back to work. In XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX was hospitalized in XXXX for 45 days, placed in a XXXX on a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
In XX/XX/XXXX I called US Bank to file a claim for XXXX  payment on our Home Equity Line of Credit. The USB representative told me that credit insurance did not include XXXX payments. I asked him to check the original note as we had used it once before. The monthly payments started after much documentation from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to US Bank. We file a doctor form almost every month and the Insurance company sends an ACH credit directly to US Bank.
The problem I am having is not understanding the Payment credit once US Bank posts the payment. There is always a lapse in time from the date XXXX XXXX sends the credit to the date applied at US Bank. Sometimes US Bank back dates the payment & sometimes it does not. Without dates it becomes almost impossible to assess what payment date the insurance payment is crediting to which US Bank monthly due date. I have contacted the Branch Manager, XXXX XXXX and the Personal Banker, XXXX XXXX at my local US Bank in XXXX, WI. Both have tried to help make sense of the payment applications. They have both worked together to get an answer from a division of US Bank titled CLLO, Consumer Loan & Lease Operations Department. The local staff concurs that the information online and on our home equity line of credit statements do not make sense. At times I have a payment due & other times I do not. I have paid them & then had the payment reversed, I have had 2 late charges, one refunded, one in process of refunding for over a month, still showing on my online bank site. I had had automatic payment until XXXX XXXX started to make payments and then US Bank removes the Auto Pay option. I have no complaint what-so-ever with the local bank staff ; however, if the numbers, dates & dollar amounts paid by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX do not make sense to me, the bank employees who have tried to help and there is still no help from the specialized division of US Bank, I am left with questions. Is the credit being applied accurately? Is this happening to other US Bank clients? Numbers should make sense and eventually provide a full, clear & concise picture of all transactions. I have been asking for help for 1 year & 8 months.

Consumer complaint received 12-06-2017 about Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service (Virtual currency) with Coinbase, Inc. ().
Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint: I purchased some XXXX through Coinbase using my debit card. I then sold the coins and have the funds sitting in an online wallet, the funds are in XXXX and I have been unable to get any advice out of the company as how to actually get the funds back into my bank account. They advised me to send a payment to them to verify my bank account but they still have not done this meaning i can not get access to my funds. All of the advice on the Coinbase.com website is very confusing regarding the withdrawal of funds especially if they are in XXXX. 

Coins bought on the XX/XX/XXXX and more on XX/XX/XXXX. This was very easy and i used my debit card. I then sold the coins on the XX/XX/XXXX. I completed the payment to them as requested on the XX/XX/XXXX which debited my bank account on the XX/XX/XXXX. Coinbase say they will then verify the account 1/2 days later. This has not been done yet and as all of the reviews online are so negative about this company I am starting this procedure now in order to get my funds out asap. I feel very misled by the company and let down by the online and telephone service.

Consumer complaint received 02/28/2017 about Debt collection (Non-federal student loan) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (TN).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: I got called from the same number 14 times in a 30 minutes period on XX/XX/2017. I got called 14 times total on XX/XX/2017 and 6 times on and 7 times on XX/XX/2017. This shows that the calls have gotten progressively aggressive over the last 4 days. I informed the lady on the phone that I was filing a complaint with the cfpb and she threatened to note my file that I am unwilling to pay my debt. I informed her I have no money to pay my debt and as soon as I get my income tax return I will pay my debt back up like I do every year. She asked if I had any money to pay and I told her I have zero money for this debt. Then I told her I needed information from her so I can file my complaint and she said your file has been noted have a good day and hung up. Talked to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the supervisor I informed her my fist contact did not give me her name and employee number ( XXXX ). XXXX provided the employee 's id number. When Informed XXXX of my intentions to file a complaint she informed me the call center is automated. I told XXXX I have received 14 calls in 30 minutes and XXXX told me they are allowed to call up to 8 times a day. That 14 calls must be an issue with the automatic calling system. I asked why the calls have gotten progressively aggressive and she said she did n't know. She asked me when I was supposed to get my income tax so I could catch it up like a douche every year and I told her it was suppose to be deposited in my account yesterday XX/XX/2017. I informed her I will pay it up in full when I get my return back like I always do. After finding out that this is the last day of the month XXXX offered suggestions of why I got called so many times in a short period of time. XXXX suggestion was they only work until XXXX on the last day of the month and the other was that my account will be transfered to a new department and will have a personal account manager starting tomorrow. I thanked XXXX for the information. I was not aware they could call up to 8 times a day and if I was receiving more than 8 calls then many more XXXX probably receiving more than 8 also.

Consumer complaint received 03-01-2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with NELNET, INC. (TX).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Having problems with customer service

Complaint: XXXX groups of loans were reported, accurately at the time of their reporting, as delinquent for 180+ days to credit reporting bureaus. A deferral was granted subsequent to the reporting which was retroactive and for a date range which included the original delinquencies. The loan servicer ( Nelnet ) refuses to update the past postings to reflect the retroactive deferral. Around XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated disputes with the XXXX major credit bureaus citing the dates of the deferment. Nelnet determined their reporting to be accurate and made no changes. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a dispute to Nelnet, in writing, which specifically referenced an interpretation letter by the FTC in which loans what were reported accurately, and then subsequently deferred, were to be updated ( even in cases where the reporting was accurate at the time ) to reflect accurate information ( such as dates for deferrals ). Nelnet informed me on XX/XX/XXXX that they were still unwilling to update their past reporting to the credit agencies regarding the status of my loans. I feel that their unwillingness to update the reporting is in direct conflict with the FTC 's interpretation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which charges furnishers of information with providing " updated and accurate information ''.

Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: I been receiving numerous calls from kohls to collect on past due amount owed, they call at different times with local numbers but leave a voicemail with their direct number. I been paying monthly payments of {$25.00} but i could n't catch up due to monthly late fee of {$35.00} due added every month on top of the {$25.00} not being the past due amount. They been emailing me as well collection emails which i did not consent too. I finally responded to one of the emails in regards to offering a low apr/no late fee/low montly payment which i received a couple of these telling me my options, I called on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX i received the email on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX i specificcally called on these options offered via email, the representative advised me he could n't offer me the options only a settlement i advised him i cant do the amount of the setllement i wont be getting paid till XX/XX/XXXX i will call you back if i can come with the amount. he said ok.

I felt misled and false misleading information on their behalf as well with the calling with local numbers more than once a day is ridiculous when im making as best to pay them.
