Issue: Other

Complaint: I have a chase XXXX Mileage plus club card that has a hefty {$400.00} annual fee. The credit card agreement promises various benefits including purchase/return protection. I had purchased an item on XXXX and unfortunately could not return it since it was pssed 30 days and my credit card return protection allows this benefit & lt ; 90 days from purchase. I called chase to make a claim according to the promised benefit l, however after nearly 2 hours and 8 transfers I am being told by chase that I did not have this benefit. Which is clearly not the case. They still advertise this still on their website and in the credit card agreement that hey had sent. The customer service and the responses that i got from the benefits adminstrators was absolutely horrendous.

Consumer complaint received 08/18/2016 about Money transfers (International money transfer) with WESTERN UNION COMPANY, THE ().
Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint: My wife, XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX 2016 at XXXX XXXX sent a Western Union transfer XXXX XXXX from your Western Union agent near us at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

I have the customer receipt and the Western Union USA response by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 2016 where you state that this money was paid to the named recipient XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX 2016 in XXXX. The only problem is that our friend did not receive this money but was told that the money had already been received in XXXX and then she went to WU in XXXX. She was again told that this money was distributed and that she needed to contact WU USA which we have done via XXXX XXXX XXXX agency taking 3 weeks for a response. 

We asked WU the following, " Please advise what WU - USA / WU-XXXX are going to do about this? You have lots of small details on this document about our responsibility and a lot of information on protecting yourself from fraud on your westernunion.com website but this money transfer was given to someone else and not our friend and recipient XXXX - We asked them the following questions : 1. Where was the money given? What WU branch/bank etc? 
2. What ID was used to show that this person was indeed XXXX XXXX? ( Even if the person who picked up this bank transfer had all of the info, they would have needed to have an appropriate ID identifying as the above person. 
3. What is WU going to do? ( There is a young man who is unable to pay school fees and thus not able to go to high school until this is sorted out. He has XXXX terms left to graduate. 
4. Are there security cameras in your WU agencies in XXXX like the XXXX in XXXX. It seems like it would be very easy to track down date and time to see who was the fraudulent recipient of these funds? " We were told by WU that the case was close because the money had been received. If we wanted to reopen the case, this could only be done by the Police XXXX or the Police XXXX. We have visited the police in XXXX 3 times and our friend has visited 3 times to the police to XXXX. We have been asked numerous times by WU to do their job for them and we have gotten very little assistance from them like we would quit asking where is our money that was supposed to go to our friend 's son education?

Consumer complaint received 02/14/2018 about Debt collection (Other debt) with Debt Recovery Solutions, LLC (CA).
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint: I asked the collection agency to validate the XXXX debt they have been trying to collect on. I received no response. Instead, I experienced more aggressive collection activity. I explained to them that this has been paid long ago and that they were reporting this same account several times. Since they refused to validate the bill I then disputed this account information as inaccurate with the bureaus. 

When I asked for validation of the debt I asked for very basic items. Absolutely no response. FCRA requires a debt be verified 30 days during which time the disputed debt is not supposed to be reported. 

The collection agency is ignoring my requests for validation, reported a disputed debt, and is re-aging and duplicating the same exact debt that was paid long ago.

Consumer complaint received 06-01-2016 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC. (NY).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: XXXX XXXX reside at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ny XXXX with my husband XXXX and Daughter XXXX XXXX Hsbc Beneficial are nothing but scammers. They have ruined my life along with my family. The refuse to work with modification, lower interest rate. we are paying XXXX which is extremely high. They are taking full advantage of us because of low credit scores, and lack of knowledge. 
How is it that those that were originally clients of Beneficial Finance, which is a predatory lender are now being taken advantage of a worse lender HSBC. We were n't ask if that 's what we wanted. Our accounts are sold out before the ink dries to the biggest crooks that seem to be monopolizing this business. Since there are so many complaints against Beneficial Finance/HSBC why has n't Consumer Affairs done a thorough investigation which would include an audit on the accounts of the consumers that have complained. I do n't think that is too much to ask for. Listing our complaints on a website might stop those that are thinking about getting a loan through either of these companies, however the consumer whose mortgages have been transferred to HSBC because of a merge etc should not be made to be robbed continually, for something they had no control over. 

Once you get involved with these companies it 's like being in quicksand, you never seem to get out. They have also called me all hours of the day including my place of employment and contacting my supervisor gave her personal information, which is a violation of my privacy under the HIPPA laws. I request their phone records should be requested to be reviewed for exceeding calls and threats. I also disagree with their response from the first complaint filed. All the info the responded with was all a bunch of untrue documents. I feel they should be held accountable for all the stress with them forcing us into foreclosure status They have ruined my life. We had a loan approved through the VA mortgage. When we ready to close to the mortgage agreement. Hsbc stated we owed them additional XXXX XXXX of interest. 


I 'm hoping XXXX can help assist me get this company to clear up my account. Because I am being made to pay my mortgage to include an escrow account which would have made my mortgage higher, however I am being made to pay a higher mortgage payment, and pay taxes and insurance outside of the mortgage. And now they want to add on more money to include another escrow, why when they have n't use the amount that was supposed to include a escrow account in the first place. I 'm not the only one with horror stories towards these companies. I feel these claimed are founded to be valid then an audit over the whole account should be done. I need your help, we need your help if you ca n't help us please direct us to who can. I live in New York State. When the lender modifies your mortgage it has to be in escrow.

Consumer complaint received 10/16/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (VA).
Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint: I originally submitted a complaint based on denial of the short sale because of affordability, they agreed they were wrong because I am in the military XXXX VA. Now mt problem is with the counter offer price they asked for on XXXX XXXX. The comps for the fair market value are around XXXX. They originally countered at XXXX back in XXXX 2015. This time they countered with the same buyer for XXXX. I am attaching the comps that were requested when we first disputed the counter offer. Nobody has returned my calls from Wells Fargo, and I have called several times as well as left messages. I would like to know what basis they are coming up with this sale price, especially when the buyer 's bank goes for an appraisal it will not be anywhere near XXXX. They have come down XXXX from XXXX, but are still extremely high on their asking price. Why would anyone purchase a home for more than it is worth, and what bank would loan them money for a home that was n't worth the asking price? I truly do n't understand and feel XXXX XXXX is taking advantage of the situation. I have a buyer, ready to purchase the condo for fair market value, why would they intentionally sabotage the deal with such an absurd counter offer? Would they rather I let it foreclose? I would like an answer to the ultimate question and what their appraisal found the fair price should be, based on the comps I am including.

Consumer complaint received 10/19/2017 about Debt collection (Credit card debt) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA).
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint: XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX XXXX ( Research Remediation Analyst from the Executive Office ) in his letter said as I quote : On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, a charge of {$8800.00} was made with special financing terms of 18 months, No Interest if Paid in Full, regular Monthly Payment required during the special term period. YOUR MINIMUN PAYMENT AMOUNT WAS SET UP BASE OFF THE AMOUNT OF THE TOTAL PURCHASE AND LENGTH OF YOU PROMOTION. Letter attached ( Attachment 1 ) I did the payment exactly according with this indication I pay {$300.00} for 29 months because Wells Fargo Financial XXXX XXXX made a mistake on the length of the promotion, the other way the minimal payment will be {$490.00} and in that case I will not accept This Especial Home Project offer because I was not able to pay {$490.00} per month. 

XXXX, XXXX. XXXX XXXX ( Research Remediation Analyst from the Executive Office ) in her letter said as I quote : your purchase was made with Regular Montly Payments term rather than equal Montly Payments. Regular payment terms typically provide the customer great flexibility by requiring a lower minimum payment each month. However, you can make larger payment to pay off the balance by the special terms expiration date. ( attachment 2 ) Two letters from Wells Fargo Financial XXXXXXXX XXXX from the same office ( Research & Remediation Analyst Executive Office ) with different version. 
XXXX, XXXX. XXXX XXXX in her letter said as I quote : on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, the account balance of {$6000.00} was charge off. What is to charge off? In my original complain indicate that in XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I was willing to pay all my balance and Wells Fargo Financial XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX a Research & Remediation Analyst from the Executive Office DID NOT ACEPT MY OFFER ( Attachment 3 ). 
This case makes no sense if one officer said one thing and the other something totally different. XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I made the last payment. XXXX X 29 months= {$8900.00} and I pay in full. 

I am XXXX years old lady and this company is taking advantage of that. 

I trust 100 % every thing that they told me. My monthly payment never increase, the financial was 0 % until I finished. From XXXX to XXXX XXXX never increase, I pay online and I do not need to print the statement every month, to pay on line is to save paper.

Consumer complaint received 03-05-2016 about Credit card () with TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (PA).
Issue: Credit card protection / Debt protection

Complaint: My boyfriend and I purchased a sofa from XXXX and we have a year to pay it off interest free. Before we made the purchase I asked if I would be able to set up automatic monthly payments and was told I could. I just got the bill ( which is through TD Bank ) and got online to set up the monthly payments and their system is designed to only allow me to make monthly payments in the amount of the minimum payment due - which will not have us pay off the sofa in time and would then have us pay interest in an amount almost equal to the cost of the sofa itself. In addition, the loan is set up as a credit card so there are late fees if you do n't pay monthly. I called customer service, assuming there was a technical glitch that would n't allow me to enter a larger amount, and was told by the associate that this is how the system is designed. She said I can set up recurring payments for the minimum amount and then call each month if I want to pay more than that. They promise an interest free loan and then are putting significant barriers in place to cost the consumer extra money. These policies are predatory and need to be changed.
