This is a new day and from now on everything will be in writing and I will furnish complete records on spreadsheets of the true and full accounting of what happened to your money ''.

Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: I have XXXX small loans that have been transferred to Navient in XX/XX/XXXX. The cumulative value of my monthly payments was the cumulative value of all loans due monthly.

Consumer complaint received 03-09-2017 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE (AZ).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: My house is set to be auctioned off through foreclosure on XXXX XXXX. I am only a few payments behind, but my mortgage company Nationstar has played hardball with me and not allowed any options to fix this problem. I am only {$5000.00} behind on this loan ( about 4 payments ) and am back working again so I do n't see why they have to take this extreme measure and not even give me a chance to fix the problem. I bought this house in 2010 because I had a good job with steady income. I was a XXXX and had been gainfully employed for 23 years. I never dreamed I would find myself in this situation. My company shut down last summer and suddenly I was out of work. Unfortunately I was living paycheck to paycheck and did not have much saved up. I applied for unemployment and benefits, but received less than {$1000.00} and just could not get caught up on the mortgage. The good news is I am back working and can afford a fair and reasonable payment again. The problem is that Nationstar will accept nothing less than the full past due amount. I have been called by their agents who have threatened foreclosure, and I have told them that I want to be considered for assistance through the available programs. They tell me that they will send out paperwork to complete, but it is never sent. I have tried to get Nationstar to open a review but ca n't make ANY progress. This is beyond frustrating. I am less than {$5000.00} behind on this loan and I make enough money to figure out a fair solution. But the problem is that Nationstar has no interest in a fair solution, they just care about foreclosing on my house. I thought I deserved a review of my current finances and expenses in order to determine what options may be available. NONE OF THIS HAS HAPPENED and my house is supposed to be sold this week. I need help!!!

Consumer complaint received 06/27/2016 about Consumer Loan (Installment loan) with HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK, THE (MI).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX my wife and I went to Huntington Bank and asked for a mortgage loan, and we were granted what we thought was a mortgage, because they took the deed as collateral, and in XX/XX/XXXX we went back to Huntington Bank to try to refinance, found out we did not have a mortgage but rather an installment, and could not refinance to a lower rate. The rate on the loan is 9.49 % Also we did borrow more money from Huntington Bank as a line of credit in XX/XX/XXXX, for a rate of 4 % abd when the line of credit was due, we did not have to money to pay it off, so they gave us a modification at a rate of 5.5 %. When we took the line of credit, we were told when it was due we could put the installment loan and the line of credit together and refinance the both of them together. When we tried to do that, the bank said we could not do that. feel we were mislead on this whole process, and we should have been able to refinance at a lower rate. Just the installment loan alone will hace cost me {$180000.00} for a {$95000.00} loan

Consumer complaint received 08/15/2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (General-purpose credit card or charge card) with CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (MN).
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Charged too much interest

Complaint: I can not believe how inadequate the research into my problem has been. After numerous requests via credit reporting agencies and cfpb I finally got an accounting of my charges by Capital One, and as I already reported, they very clearly charged me over {$80.00} interest in the first year of my card which had a {$300.00} limit. That 's nearly 28 % interest in the first year, almost 4 % over the 24 % legal limit. {$12.00} from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX, and {$72.00} from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I 've made numerous attempts to hold them to the law to no avail. I want this debt dissolved and removed from my credit reports. Indeed, if I could sue foe damages, I would.

Consumer complaint received 12-09-2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (General-purpose credit card or charge card) with JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (CA).
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to a retail store to do some XXXX shopping. I had a series of fraud alerts triggered by trying to make purchases with my Chase credit card. I called chase to verify the attempted charges I was told the fraud alert had been removed and that I was free to attempt the charge again. This happened 3 separate times in the same night ... the fraud alert was removed and each time I would go back in the store to make my purchase yet the charge was declined again, I 'd call Chase again, jump through a bunch of hoops answering a bunch of questions correctly, and then reassured everything was fine and to go try the purchase again. Finally after the third time going back in the store for a decline, I called and was told that the latest fraud alert could not be removed and that my accounts were under review by Chase. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received notification that all 5 of my Chase credit cards had been cancelled. Some of these cards I have had for over 15 years. I 've never missed a payment and have paid my balances in full every month on each and every card I 've ever had with Chase. 

I do not believe Chase is operating within the spirit of the credit card agreement by issuing overly sensitive fraud alerts, and then even after the purchaser 's identity is satisfactorily established by Chase, and with reassurance given to that card holder that he is free to make the transaction, to continue declining purchases over and over again to the embarrassment of the card holder. Then to add insult to injury punishing the consumer by closing 5 credit card accounts which have never had a problem is very dishonest.

Consumer complaint received 09/28/2016 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (CO).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: This is an ongoing issue with my mortgage servicer. Even after a previous complaint to the CFPB regarding improper handling ( Case number : XXXX ) of my account I can still get ZERO information on this loan. Ocwen made a motion to the bankruptcy trustee to receive a XXXX payout after my case was dismissed. The judge awarded them the money over a month ago, but i have been unable to track down where missing funds currently are. The balance on my loan changed by a small amount yesterday, so i called both yesterday and today looking for information and no one will tell me anything other than my account is being handled with " legal '' - and treated me like I had somehow defaulted or caused this problem with the loan. 

My mortgage is not being properly serviced and I am being denied basic information on my account. I made payments in good faith to the bankruptcy trustee on this account and because of Ocwens poor practices the money was never applied. Now - I ca n't even get any information on the account and am being treated like I am the one who did something wrong. This morgage was current for YEARS before being transferred to Ocwen.

Consumer complaint received 08-11-2015 about Debt collection (Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.)) with The Affiliated Group, Inc (NY).
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint: I used to have voice over internet with the carrier called XXXX now known as XXXX XXXX and about a year and a half ago I discontinued telephone service with them. However there was an incident in which I moved and in that move I lost a little box that was necessary to voice over telephone calling. The box was about the same size as a deck of cards. I contacted XXXX and explained that the little box had somehow gotten lost in the moves.They said that I owed them {$100.00} dollars for the box. I explained to XXXX that it was an honest mistake and due to me having to move twice in two months, that it was an mistake in which I had ultimately no control over the situation being that the movers were moving me and I explained that I could not afford to pay for the box and that since I was a loyal customer for four years I felt that they should have honored my reasons. I was never again contacted by XXXX. About a year later I began receiving harassing telephone calls from a collection agency stating that they represented XXXX and that they were trying to collect {$120.00}. I asked them what for and they said I owed them money for the lost box. I explained to the collection agency what the situation was and why I did not feel that I should be held responsible for a little lost box and that mistakes happen. I told them that I was filing a complaint. I recently reviewed my credit report and found that I have a collection item reported by the collection agency who supposedly was representing XXXX. I feel that this wrong being that XXXX never contacted me again nor tried to call and discuss the situation and for them to do this is really bad business after I had a legitimate and very logical reason for the issue. I would never deliberately NOT send a little box back to a company for no good reason. I think what XXXX did was wrong and I do not feel that I owe them anything. This is how XXXX treats it former loyal customer 's? I want the derogatory information that XXXX supplied to be removed from my credit report and I want the harassing phone calls to stop. I am requesting your help with this matter and please advise. Thank You. XXXX XXXX
