Consumer complaint received 02-12-2016 about Bank account or service (Other bank product/service) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (NC).
Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint: I 've been with Wells Fargo for 22 years since they were Wachovia and before that XXXX XXXX. 
I have several credit cards, accounts and a line of credit with them and this past Sunday I had a payment due on my Personal Line of Credit for {$300.00}. I have it setup to automatically pay from my checking account, but I was in my account so I went ahead and paid it thinking it would stop the automatic withdrawal. It did n't and both payments posted causing my checking account to be at XXXX. Then Monday two payments hit my checking account triggering XXXX over draft charges. I immediately called Sunday trying to stop XXXX of the payments when I realized my error and they were n't able to stop the payments in time, but they did refund XXXX of them to my checking account and I was told to call back and request a refund of the over draft charges after everything settled. 
I have XXXX problems one I do n't feel I should have to pay these over draft charges because if I had n't made the mistake the {$300.00} was more than enough to cover the charges I had coming through my account so I did n't need to use over draft services. 
Second I want to complain about how I was treated on the call this afternoon by one of the Supervisors - XXXX, when I asked for my money back. XXXX could have easily been a robot talking to me. She stated the company policy and from the time she opened her mouth I could tell I meant nothing to her and neither did my 22 years as a loyal customer with them. In the end I think I 'm more offended by that lack of regard than by the loss of {$40.00}. She was such a smart aleck that she even stated I could cancel the over draft services if the fee was too high. Total disregard for me as a loyal customer and when I mentioned that I had been with this bank for 22 years and asked her how long she had ( because I wanted to know if she was from Wachovia ) she cut me off and said how long she has been there has nothing to do with the banking policy. 
The sad thing is I train customer service reps and there were many different ways to handle this situation, Wachovia/XXXX XXXX would have either explained the policy and offered a courtesy refund or I have even had them split the difference with me, but to be out right cold and brutal, they would have never done this. 
I stayed with this bank so long because I expected loyalty back as well.

Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint: I have an abusive, alcoholic husband. I met a man named XXXX XXXX on XXXX who began talking to me and promising to get me out of the situation. He requested money from me on numerous occasions to help with his project in XXXX, being an XXXX, and once requesting money to help with one of his sons that was in the hospital. I got away from my abusive husband with a promise from " XXXX '' that he would meet me at the XXXX, XXXX airport on Tuesday, XXXX XXXX around XXXX ; however, he then started messaging me to let me know he was told that he had exceeded his maximum withdrawals on his account and could not get money to purchase plane tickets for him and his XXXX sons. He said he was supposed to meet a man on XXXX that would loan him {$3700.00} to be able to purchase the tickets ; however, then he has begun asking me to send more money to him. He knows I will be getting a 401K withdrawal of {$4000.00} on XXXX and has requested I send him the {$3700.00} and when he arrives in the US he will give me that money back, plus the money I already sent him.

He promised to get me away from my abusive situation, take me on a shopping spree, has purchased a car for me, and will take me to live with him in his mansion in XXXX. Having lived an abused life, all of this sounded amazing to me. I suggested to him that I would send him prepaid plane tickets because a friend said she would loan me the money, but he said he did n't want my friend 's money. He wanted mine. He claims he is anxious to get back to the US and be with me, but he did not take the offer of prepaid plane tickets. He wants the cash.

He is continuing to message me and became upset with me when I told him my friend found out I had wired money to him. He said he thought the money was our secret.

Consumer complaint received 06/29/2017 about Student loan (Private student loan) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (TX).
Issue: Getting a loan
Sub-issue: Fraudulent loan

Complaint: In XXXX 2003 XXXX XXXX called me to advertise a program. At that time I was going to college and it was a bit difficult for me to get the time that I needed to attend the classes. So, when they called me I thought it would have been a great opportunity for me to have a steady job as they promised ; in order to finish my college education. So, I accept to sign in. At that time they told me that the tuition will be for about {$26000.00} and I will only pay about {$12000.00} because the government will be responsible for the remainder. However, that was a lie. Around 2003 while in class they called into the financial aid office just to sign on forms that they have already filled out. I thought it was for my best interest because I was in class, so, I do n't miss the teacher 's instructions. But, later on I have realized it was because they wanted to be successful into their scam activities. So, they made me sign on loan for {$12000.00} with XXXX XXXX. I could have said well, XXXX XXXX does not have anything to do with the school being a lawbreaker. But on the other hand I am thinking they must have known something. Because they can not allow anyone calling them and asking them to support a student without knowing who the student is and who the business is. For example if I were to call XXXX XXXX and ask them for {$5000.00} loan or for {$50000.00} they will ask me what type of business that I am conducting, they will also ask me for a proof of license. If they do n't do that that means they are in fault. They will however, get rip-off all the times ; and that is not business. Which means they have to do a thorough search before accepting a request. They either knew who XXXX XXXX was or was an accomplice with them. Therefore, I should n't be the one victimize for this scam game. And like I mentioned if they did not do their research before accepting the school request, this experience ought to be a good lesson for them. Therefore, I am asking for this loan to be erased from my account and also to be reimbursed for the total amount that I have paid to them for eight years which totaling {$20000.00}.

Consumer complaint received 01-04-2017 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with BB&T CORPORATION (DC).
Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint: BB & T failed to alert me that my account was accumulating fees from authorized transactions for more than XXXX week resulting in {$900.00} in overdrafts and other fees. Each dispute I made for these fees was ultimately denied by BB & T and I was left to pay these fees on my own. After a month of being in the negative status, BB & T made an unauthorized transfer of {$900.00} from my savings to my checking account to cover these fees. I set up arrangements to pay off the fees before the stated deadline, however, the bank transferred the money from my savings account without my permission a full XXXX weeks prior. I called in to speak with several representatives and a XXXX, who advised that they were in their right to make this transfer without my permission. This seems very illegal.

Consumer complaint received 01/26/2017 about Mortgage (VA mortgage) with LoanCare, LLC (PA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: I was contacted by Loan Care and informed that they would be collecting property taxes from my escrow totaling over XXXX dollars. 
I called Loan Care and informed them that my property taxes are exempt because I am a XXXX veteran. I also explained to Loan Care that the Title Company submitted the property tax information in closing of the mortgage loan and the exemption is recorded in XXXX County Deed of Records. Loan Care informed me that I am not allowed to speak with the tax department and to send them a tax bill. 
I explained that I do not receive a tax bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX because the taxes are exempt and I had already sent Loan Care the property tax information. Loan Care disconnected the call. I called back to Loan Care and they told me that they were not going to ask the title company for any information and they did not receive my tax information. 
I am asking for Loan Care to accept my Property Tax information from XXXX County and the Department of Veterans Affairs and then update my records. I am also asking that Loan Care stop having people answer calls that do not have authority or competence to handle customers needs. 
Finally, I am asking Loan Care not to collect money from my escrow account for property taxes and to address the issue of the Loan Closing being improperly handled.
