Consumer complaint received 08/24/2016 about Debt collection (Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.)) with National Credit Systems,Inc. (AZ).
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint: This debt was incurred by my ex-husband by living in an apartment where we both lived when we were together. The debt is only in my name shared with a previous roommate 's. I have supporting evidence that my ex and I were legally separated when this debt was incurred. 

When going to visit the property management company, I was told to leave the office because they could n't help me. I was embarrassed and treated very poorly. This debt does not belong to me and they did not give me a chance to resolve this with them. Instead, it was sent to collections under my name instead of my ex-husband 's. 

I lived in this apartment with another roommate before my then-husband moved in with me. My roommate moved out at the same time. Now her ( ex-roommate ) and I are being charged each for the FULL amount instead of half each. We also each received an offer for resolution claiming we only have to pay 50 % of the debt. But if we were to accept it, we 'd still be paying the full amount together. The property management company is completely unprofessional and dishonest.

Company public response: Company disputes the facts presented in the complaint

Consumer complaint received 08-02-2016 about Prepaid card (General purpose card) with U.S. BANCORP (OH).
Issue: Managing, opening, or closing account

Complaint: US Bank National Association dba XXXX XXXX XXXX has failed on several instanced to adhere to the terms of THEIR card holder agreement. After enticing that my tax refund be direct deposited to my card through a {$10.00} credit advertisement the company refused to post the funds to my card. I was THEN informed that they only take deposits up to {$5000.00}, which varies greatly from the terms of their agreement. In XXXX XXXX, prior to filing my taxes, I contacted customer service for my XXXX XXXX thru XXXX XXXX bank statements to help me with filing my taxes and was told that they no longer had access to my records. I advised them that Federal law mandated that the keep these records for a number of years, the rep had no knowledge of the laws and advised that she would escalate the matter and have their superiors contact me. I am still waiting for that call back. In XXXX I used the card for incidentals at XXXX hotel. XXXX XXXX charged my account in excess of the amount the vendor attempted to hold and refused to credit it back after the vendor released the hold. I spent over 8 hrs on the phone with various reps who pretended that they could not release the hold, when paragraph XXXX of their agreement provides a means to do so with written authorization from the vendor. I advised XXXX XXXX that they were in violation of THEIR agreement and the rep, XXXX stated she could not further assist. On XXXX XXXX I requested an arbitration hearing and to date I have not received a hearing date or any information regarding the status, resulting in 3 additional calls. It is my opinion that XXXX XXXX preys upon individuals with financial troubles and lack of financial laws. Even though they have refused to adhere to their agreement, they continue to charge a {$3.00} service charge. The prepaid card is SUPPOSED to provide me with {$5.00} per {$1000.00} in free groceries, however the clerks at the XXXX family of stores have NO KNOWLEDGE of the program and regularly fail to provide this " benefit ''. Each month I have to call in and I am told the phone reps can only see that I earned the benefit, but have no way of tracking if the benefit was used by an unauthorized party. When I requested an inquiry on the matter I was advised that someone would call me back within 48 hours to let me know. To date, I have NEVER received a return call from my numerous inquiries. Please review the attached information and feel free to contact me for more details regarding the atrocious disregard for the financial laws of the State of Ohio and the United States.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint: I have contacted XXXX trying to remove this account from My Credit report for years they refuse. I have advised them I am a victim of identity theft and requested proof this account indeed without a doubt belongs to me and they fail to do that. The only thing they have sent me is proof of the payments made to the car which does n't prove this debt or account indeed belongs to me.i demand proof such as copy of my drivers license, passport, state issued id, social security card etc documents providing I opened this account personally. I even tried to settle this account even though I do n't owe anything to them and they refuse to remove the account even after payment. This is t correct and someone needs to put into place my rights as a consumer.

Consumer complaint received 02/15/2017 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle loan) with ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (FL).
Issue: Taking out the loan or lease

Complaint: My car dealership, XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX, FL, overcharged me for a service on the vehicle by {$640.00}. They rectified the situation by sending me a check for the error instead of sending it to the finance company, which is Ally Bank. I sent the payment to the finance company, and it is my understanding that my interest rate is based on the amount of the loan as well as my monthly payment amount, but after notifying my finance company of this error, no change was made to the contract, and I believe that for over a year, I 've been over charged in interest, which has caused me to be severely upside down in the vehicle equity and unable to refinance with a more reputable institution without an impossible to come up with down-payment.

Consumer complaint received 03-09-2018 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: My mortgage # XXXX held by XXXX XXXX was sold to Wells Fargo on or around XX/XX/XXXX. Wells Fargo has assigned # XXXX to this loan. 

I made my XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment to XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Wells Fargo is demanding that my XX/XX/XXXX payment be sent to them. For some reason, XXXX XXXX and Wells Fargo can not communicate between themselves to straighten this out and I do not feel responsible for this problem. 

I had nothing to do with the sale of my mortgage to Wells Fargo. In fact I am not happy to be doing business in any form with Wells Fargo due to there record of unethical dealings. I do realize that I have no control over the transfer of this loan. 

My XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payments have been accepted by Wells Fargo. The outstanding issue is the proper crediting of my XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment.

Please help. I am an old angry widow and have no patience with this nonsense.

Consumer complaint received 01/27/2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with AES/PHEAA (CA).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: I have been trying to get on a program for nearly a year now that I can afford. I first started with my original service who denied the applications after many months of multiple attempts and then told me to consolidate and my loan via fedloan servicing and get on XXXX. 
My loan was consolidated on XX/XX/XXXX and I was told that my XXXX would be done around XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX and that it looked good. I kept calling and getting the status with them saying it looked good and once asked for me to send them my paystub, which I did. 
My loan just came up for repayment which says it is XXXX per month! It is on a XXXX year loan. My loan was half of this but with the compounding interest the loan is now nearly double what it used to be. 
I called today to tell them I really need them to finalize the XXXX as the loan is just compounding interest and the standard loan is just getting higher and higher and now it is nearly a third of my take home. 

They told me I need to submit another application!!!!!! Once again for the XXXX time. I have no idea why this is. They have been telling me it was ok the whole time and that everything looked good. It is becoming impossible to get on this loan program. 
This is criminal and predatory practice to keep me in application status for nearly a year between XXXX and now Fedloan Servicing.
