Consumer complaint received 03/25/2017 about Mortgage (Other mortgage) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (NC).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I am in the process of doing a deed in lieu and I am having a issue with the second mortgage Wells Fargo. I submitted paperwork to them that I had received from my first mortgage on XX/XX/2017 via fax. Instead of them reading the paperwork and acknowledging that it was a settlement offer from my first mortgage they removed me from their hardship program. I had to call them several times and have requested that they respond to the correspondence that was sent to them and advised myself and my first mortgage if they are going to accept the settlement offer. Since I sent the correspondence I have been assigned several representatives. The last one assigned to me XXXX, I sent her an email on XX/XX/XXXX to find out the status of the settlement offerr. She called me on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX and stated that she did not know the status but she would reach out to the processor and would call me back in 24 to 48 hours. It has been 8 business days since I spoke with her and have received no response. I also sent her an email for status on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and no response as of this date. Why is it taking so long for them to agree to the settlement offer. This is the only thing that is needed for my first mortgage to conclude my deed in lieu.

Consumer complaint received 02/27/2018 about Debt collection (Payday loan debt) with Critical Resolution Mediation LLC (IN).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Impersonated attorney, law enforcement, or government official

Complaint: Company illegally accessed the records of XXXX XXXX and subsequently illegally pursued collection activities against him. Company charged an additional {$24.00} in fees and then debited the bank account of XXXX XXXX for a total of {$300.00}. XXXX XXXX became aware of this fraudulent action on XX/XX/2017 and contacted company. Company insisted they had the right to collection on the account, having never provided the FDCPA requirement of a letter within 5 days of calling the debtor ( nor at any time thereafter ), that XXXX XXXX had agreed to payment in writing and they would debit the account based on that. XXXX XXXX was unaware of his rights or options until the TRUE legal owner of the debt, XXXX   XXXX XXXX reviewed the matter and educated him. DEMAND was made to Critical Resolution Mediation to refund XXXX XXXX in the full amount of {$300.00} so that he could pay the legal owner of the account the lesser amount of {$130.00}. Company failed to respond to all demand letters, therefore this is step one in a series to start the process of GOVERNMENTAL ACTION AGAINST THE COMPANY. 

There are NUMEROUS complaints against this company on file through the XXXX  and other websites. CRITICAL RESOLUTION MEDIATION MUST BE STOPPED!

Consumer complaint received 07-01-2016 about Credit card () with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (PR).
Issue: Customer service / Customer relations

Complaint: I was sent a refund of overpayment on my Walmart card that was mailed on XX/XX/XXXX. I lost that mail in my car and I found it on XX/XX/XXXX. I tried to cash it at Walmart, and was told it was not honored because it was over six months old. I have been trying to get a replacement check since XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Synchrony Bank has strung me along every month since then, telling me to wait for one reason or another. I called today and spoke to XXXX, who said they called me on XXXX XXXX, XXXX telling me that they would not honor the check because it was over two years old. That was not true. I have never received a call from them. She then stated that I could call back, thirty days from the call I never got on XXXX XXXX. Today I 'm asking for your help to resolve this matter. I called Walmart costumer service, and followed the prompts which leads you directly to a Synchrony bank rep. 

Thank you,.

Consumer complaint received 07/18/2015 about Debt collection (Mortgage) with NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE (MN).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: Nationstar keeps calling the business that I work at, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, multiple times a day trying to collect a debt for someone that no longer works here. It is an automated dialer with no option to talk to a person. There is an option to say that is is the incorrect number, but they keep calling. 
I called the number they provide for you to call back for more information, and by pushing a lot of wrong buttons, I was eventually transferred to a human. When I told the gentleman that I wanted them to stop calling, he said there was nothing he could to remove our number until the intended recipient gave them permission to change his account.

Consumer complaint received 06-01-2015 about Credit card () with CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (VA).
Issue: Billing disputes

Complaint: Using my Capital One credit card, I ordered flowers from XXXX to be delivered to my mom on XXXX 's Day. The charge was {$52.00}. My mom said the flowers were not delivered to her. I tried to dispute the charge with Capital One. At first they refunded the charge but later they added the charge to my account without my permission. They used some flimsy excuse that the merchant ( XXXX ) submitted the charge again. Capital One sent me some meaningless papers that does not prove the flowers were delivered to my mom or anything else. I do n't know how to prove that something was not delivered. When I complained to Capital One, they closed my account ( they do n't like customers who complain ), but the charge of {$52.00} remained.

Consumer complaint received 09-02-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (FL).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint: The complaint I would like to file would be against XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX. Recently I called XXXX XXXX office to get an updated log of my account for my records, as well as the original copy of the contracts and documents that I signed for the account. I called to speak with a representative from XXXX XXXX to get an original copy of my account and summary. The associates name was XXXX he did, confirm that my account was at a XXXX balance. 
After our conversation I asked XXXX If XXXXXXXX would be able to send me a letter summarizing what we had discussed concluding that the account was at a XXXX balance. He said he would have to talk to his supervisor to get an approval for a letter to be sent out. He came back and told me that they could in fact give me a letter and it would take about 48 hrs. To be sent out for me to receive it. After 2 weeks of not receiving it, I called back to XXXX, and they informed me I would have to call XXXX XXXX to get any further testament of my account. 
Once I was able to contact XXXX XXXX they informed me that my account was at a XXXX balance and they no longer had my account. I requested from XXXX a letter stating these facts about my account, but was denied this as they said they do not issue letters about account balances or status, I would have to get back in contact with XXXX for those records basically having me run in circles. I then had to call back to XXXX and I was able to speak with another supervisor there. She informed me the reason I had n't gotten a letter was because they do not send out and will not send out a letter concerning any details about my account. Because of this I disputed the negative showing on my XXXX on XXXX.17 as well the XXXX showing on the same day. I then proceeded to dispute the XXXX showing on XXXX17. All 3 credit Unions reporting agencies did not respond to my request within 30 days allowed. They did not provide me with any proof of the validation of the account that XXXX provided them. 
At this point I do n't know what was provided by XXXX to the credit reporting agencies. I spoke with a XXXX  representatives XXXX, XXXX and a supervisor by the name of XXXX on XXXX.17. I was told that a dispute came back from XXXX at a higher balance of {$1600.00} but previously it was {$570.00}. 

XXXX XXXX holds the account for XXXX and XXXX, as I have a XXXX credit card. Because of the dispute with XXXX,  XXXX XXXX informed me that they decreased my credit limit from {$700.00} to {$100.00}. I have never missed a payment and never am late on a payment. One of my big questions, is are they allowed to do that. I believe its unfair when I have always kept my account in good standings.

Consumer complaint received 01/19/2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (MD).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about my loan

Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX I had decided to consolidate my school loans before entering repayment. Multiple Navient employees informed me that consolidating my loans from XXXX ( years XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX ) with my XXXX school loans ( years XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX ) would not impact which income-based repayment plan I qualified for. I expressed my concern that my old loans would disqualify me for some plans, but was reassured that because they were being consolidated, the entire consolidated loan would qualify for all repayment plans. After consolidating and switching lenders ( to XXXX ), I was informed that I could not qualify for the PAYE repayment plan because my XXXX loans were consolidated with my loans. It was very frustrating to be misinformed by several different employees, especially after directly expressing my concerns regarding how my older loans would impact repayment of a consolidated loan.

Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint: My bank has been letting XXXX companies take money from my account since about 2011. I have been telling them both via their website and over the phone that they need to stop the transactions from happening that those were n't from me. They have n't done anything till as of late they credited my final deduction on XXXX XXXX. They are now passing me around the bank and doing nothing for me as far as the past due amounts. They pass me around and I have to explain the entire story again to a new person every few days. I can only see 90 days into my bank history so I ca n't get exact dates. The XXXX companies charged me every few months. My bank has yet to do anything really other then pass me around in hopes I 'll get tired like they have done in the past. But enough is enough.

Consumer complaint received 01/24/2018 about Debt collection (I do not know) with URS Holding, LLC (CA).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: I started receiving these calls from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, and the messages always say " Hi this message if from XXXX XXXX XXXX, this is a call from a debt collector, please call XXXX '' but the extension provided is always different. The message is typically very rushed and barely audible. 

To my knowledge, I do not have any overdue payments. Today XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, I finally gave in and called them back at the phone number they called from ( XXXX ), and the woman who answered the phone would not give me any information, and simple put me on hold after asking me for my name. I was on hold for quite a while so I hung up and called back. I spoke with the same woman and asked her what this was about and again she would not offer any information and told me she needed to place me on a brief hold to get me to the person handling my case. I was on hold for a while and got spooked, so I hung up. 

Please help me figure out if this is a legitimate call worth following up on. Thank you.
