I am a victim of a predatory loan for which I have paid over 10 years and as early as XXXX XXXX, my XXXX loan has turn into a XXXX with Ocwen as the worse of them all.

Consumer complaint received 04/23/2015 about Student loan (Non-federal student loan) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (NJ).
Issue: Getting a loan
Sub-issue: Qualify for a better loan than offered

Complaint: To Whom It May Concern : PROBLEM : XXXX XXXX HAS REFUSED TO ANSWER MY EMAILS WITH CLEAR ANSWERS AS TO WHY THEY DO NOT LOWER MY INTEREST RATES WHICH ARE AT HISTORIC LOW LEVELS. EVERYONE CAN REFINANCE HOMES, AUTOS, ETC. BUT I CAN NOT REFINANCE MY STUDENT LOANS! 
I am XXXX years old, married and with a child on the way. We are tirelessly saving to buy a home in XXXX, but we 've been crippled by over {$120000.00} of student loans when I obtained a XXXX degree from XXXX in XXXX. 

It 's been six years since I XXXX in XX/XX/2009 and I 've paid over {$90000.00} in interest alone and the principal is lowering at a snail 's pace. We have not been able to take even a small vacation since we married XXXX years ago and there 's no light at the end of the tunnel to live a normal, quality life. It 's strained our marriage early on and we 're so nervous about having children. 

We need help please. Real help. I did n't know what I was doing at the time and my parents were first generation folks who could n't guide me at the time. Help us somehow. Please do n't pass us along to some ( XXXX ) number. What program is there to help me? I will do whatever it takes to climb out of this. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 10/19/2015 about Prepaid card (Government benefit payment card) with Empowerment Ventures, LLC (NM).
Issue: Managing, opening, or closing account

Complaint: Rush Card ( XXXX ) has had " computer issues '' and I have not had access to my money since XXXX XXXX, 2015. Previous to XXXX XXXX, there were XXXX pending charges on my account that were incorrect and making my available balance less than it should be. Since XXXX XXXX, because my Rush Card and XXXX accounts are linked, I have also had chargebacks debited through my XXXX account that are also held against my Rush Card account. In addition, I have also had a credit issued to my Rush Card account that I ca n't access. I have been unable to buy groceries and have had to cancel an appointment with my doctor because I have no access to my funds. As of today, XXXX XXXX, Rush Card 's system is still " down '', with no relief in sight. Customer service reps at the company can only say that when the service is restored, they will " call '' me. I have received no offers of recompense, or any assurances that I will ever be able to access my rightful monies again. They have, however, sent a text message graciously offering to " waive '' my account processing fee of $ XXXX/mo. for 4 months beginning in XXXX, 2015. As if, I would entrust them with my money again! Which brings up the problem of direct deposit : I had to contact XXXX to change the way to disburse my XXXX XXXX payment. Social Security now requires that one know the current account and routing numbers to change the disbursement arrangement. Since even the Rush Card customer service reps can not access such basic customer account records, I had to present myself and my ID at a local Social Security office. Since I am XXXX and can not drive, this was a major, and costly, endeavor. I shall receive my only source of income on XXXX XXXX, but until then, I have no access to any money due to Rush Card 's incompetence and negligence.

Consumer complaint received 08/29/2017 about Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service (Virtual currency) with Coinbase, Inc. (CA).
Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint: I am filing this complaint to address Coinbase, digital currency exchange, to have my funds/accounts released immediately. Over the weekend, my account was hacked meaning someone, an unauthrizd user, has logged in with my information somehow to transfer {$5000.00} worth of BTC to an address. At the time of the transaction, I 've received text messages that give me the codes to enter if I am logging in from somewhere I have not logged in in previous locations/devices which the led to the suspicion. I logged in to my account immediately with my phone ( primary device for login ) to see what was going on. Only to find out that a transaction has been made an was " pending ''. Unfortunately, Coinbase do not have a human support. I emailed customer service about the account being hacked and replied by saying they 've closed my account due to security reasons. 
Two days have passed and a representative emailed me stating the transaction was done through a device that I consistently use to make transaction and a consistent location. 
This does n't make sense at all. If someone tried to log in with my information, by entering numerous amount of wrong codes, I believe that Coinbase should have locked my account and advised me right away. I 've received 6 text messages with different codes meaning he or she had entered them wrong every 6 time. Ultimately, I have no idea how they had access to the phone I was physically carrying to complete the transaction. Furthermore, the representative just gave me a simple process to change my password and strengthen my authentication process. I needed to have access to my remaining balance and to find out which device at which IP has logged in for the hack ( trying to somehow resolve on my own ). This capability is only available when I am able to sign in. So at the moment, I am trying to have access to funds over {$20000.00} which is a big amount. Furthermore, they refused to help the customers ' losses. Not only they are willing to even negotiate/speak about responsibilities, they are not enabling my account without answer. So, I hereby file this complaint to Coinbase to take immediate action.
Thank You

Consumer complaint received 02/14/2018 about Checking or savings account (Other banking product or service) with ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (TX).
Issue: Opening an account
Sub-issue: Confusing or missing disclosures

Complaint: Bank : Ally Issue : False advertisement for {$100.00} bonus for new account I opened an account with Ally because of the promotion in XX/XX/2017. The promotion page listed 5 conditions. However, after I have met the 5 conditions, Ally refused to honor the bonus and cited that according to their current promotion ( {$200.00} bonus ), 3 trades are required. The current offer page also clearly listed the 3 trades qualification condition.

I have the previous screenshot that shows at the time of my promotion, there was no such requirement. Or I could assume that it was deliberately made unknown the  customers. Ally can not show any concert proof that it was in the fine print either.
