Consumer complaint received 06/21/2017 about Debt collection (Payday loan debt) with ONEMAIN FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, LLC. (CA).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: One Main Financial contacted my husband 's cell phone advising that they were trying to reach me for an important business matter. My husband, who when I signed my loan documents was only my boyfriend, is not associated with the loan or account at all. When I provided his phone number, it was under the pretense that he was a reference to validate the information I provided in order to obtain the loan. One Main Financial has called my cellphone 3 times a day, every day, leaving 1-2 voicemails a day to collect on a debt which is in direct violation of TCPA. They do not have permission to call my cell phone, or any known contact 's cell phone, to collect on a debt. They are falsely stating that they are calling my references in order to obtain a valid mailing address for me. I currently have my mail forwarded to my new house, so it is false that they do not have a valid address. They are in violation of FDCPA by calling me numerous times a day and leaving a voicemail each time. I have blocked their phone numbers ( four different ones ) and they now call blocking their number so that they can still get through to leave a voicemail. I would like to report them for their abusive tacticts, calling unauthorized parties about me, and for calling cell phone numbers without written consent. I verbally advised One Main Financial on XXXX XXXX, XXXX at XXXX that they do not have authorization to call mine or my husband 's cell phone and advised them of their regulatory violations. The woman raised her voice, spoke over me, and advised they will continue to call any number I provided including my references, regardless of the number being a cell phone.

Consumer complaint received 07-11-2015 about Credit reporting () with EQUIFAX, INC. (FL).
Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting my free annual report

Complaint: I have tried to get my free annual report or to buy one from Equifax numerous times. Their identifying information questions contain information that does not apply to me ( what mortgage do I have, what is the monthly payment, do I have any of several credit cards that I do not have, etc ). When I answer these accurately " Not applicable '' it says I have entered incorrect information. When I try calling them they do the same thing - the information they are looking for is incorrect so it is impossible for me to access my report. I have never had a mortgage, car financing, department store credit or any of the other things they insist I have and want me to identify.

Complaint: Chase is current reporting an account on my credit report as a charged-off account.

Consumer complaint received 09/19/2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with CITIBANK, N.A. (OH).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: This complaint is against CitiBank. 
Per my friend 's recommendation, I applied for a Citigold checking account owned by CitiBank following the link on the internet in XXXX. The promotion advertisement listed the following conditions : 1 ) Open an account with CitiBank. Deposit money. 
2 ) Make payment for ( 2 ) consecutive months 3 ) Make a purchase worth {$1000.00} As a result, we will be offered XXXX miles. Meanwhile, Citi will charge my account {$30.00} per month for three months if the deposit is less than certain amount ( Maybe {$50000.00} ). 
The application was accomplished in no time with a promo code. Money was deposited. Payments and purchase were made. At the beginning of XXXX, I called Citi to inquire about the status of XXXX points and was informed that I had met all the requirements and the claim had been setup while the process would take up to three months to complete. XXXX XXXX is the date I should call back for the final result. 
On XXXX XXXX, I called to follow up. After spending long time waiting and explaining, I was told that she needed to confirm some information and let me know later. However, I never received a call from anybody from Citibank for this. The only thing I know is, Citibank charged me {$30.00} per month so I was charged total {$90.00} in these 3 months. I sent a few bank security messages for this matter. I finally received an answer, which I believed it is an excuse. The promo was offered to targeted customers while I was n't. This is not acceptable. If this offer was for targeted customers, why did CitiBank put it on their website. Why did my application pass through their review following the link? This was an unpleasant experience. I asked them to close my account instantly, meanwhile, warned to file a complaint to CFPB. My request to solve the issue is either citi should award me {$50000.00} XXXX points or refund me {$90.00} and apologize for wasting my time.

Consumer complaint received 04/18/2015 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I filed a complete loan modification packet with Wells Fargo Bank, afterwhich Wells Fargo Bank denied my loan modification request. 
Wells Fargo Bank 's denial letter had factually based errors contained within it. 
So I filed a timely appeal and included additional exhibits A through F ( approx. XXXX pages ). 
Wells Fargo Bank thereafter sent out a notice of receipt of my appeal and that letter also contained factually based errors by stating that my appeal was submitted without additional documentation and that I had a present bankruptcy case. ( none of which was true, see attached appeal and Wells Fargo 's incorrect letters ) Wells Fargo than tool less than three days to deny my appeal and did so without XXXX providing me with the additional documentation that my appeal had requested from Wells Fargo, instead I was told that my loan modification was denied. 
Wells Fargo Bank commits these errors either through gross negligence or intentionally created and Wells Fargo Bank has no intention of conducting a good faith loan modification review. 
Wells Fargo Bank should not be allowed to just deny loan modification applications based on factual errors, and than Wells Fargo Bank should not be the only entity to review their own errors in the borrowers loan modification appeal. 
Wells Fargo Bank literally just goes through the motions in order to appear in compliance with the law, but than does not even bother to read the borrowers documents that they have submitted in support of the loan modification process. 
Than when Wells Fargo Bank denies the loan modification application, they refuse to send you the denial letter by fax, and instead they choose to use the XXXX Mail which always takes approximately XXXX additional days to receive. 
This act alone also cuts into the borrowers time to prepare documents and submit a timely request for review. 
Wells Fargo Bank 's entire loan modification process is a farce and set up to blatantly ignore the borrowers information in order to expedite Wells Fargo Bank 's predetermined denial. 
Wells Fargo Bank continues to violate the CFPB 's rules and regulations.

Consumer complaint received 02/26/2018 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MO).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: I purchased a new home XXXX, XXXX and my mortgage loan was sold to WellsFargo. I contacted WellsFargo in early XXXX, XXXX as it showed that my property taxes paid were {$2.00}. During the phone call I let the company know that my property taxes should be significantly higher. I received a letter on XX/XX/XXXX that my property taxes were past due in the amount of {$6400.00}, which was paid in addition to a " misc fee '' of {$620.00}. I have contacted WellsFargo numerous times for resolution however after 3 months I still do not know anything. I need my XXXX tax statement revised to reflect the property tax I paid in the amount of {$6400.00} not {$2.00}! With the new tax bill I can not have that amount go towards my XXXX taxes. I elected to have my mortgage company pay my taxes so they have a responsibility to pay them timely and not charge me late fees of {$620.00}. This has delayed getting my XXXX taxes completed.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint: I 'm having lots of problems with discovercard. I file complaints with the cfpb.gov, they respond saying it 's all been found in my favor and I should receive my money back for those unauthorized transactions but in fact my balance and the dispute outcomes remain unchanged.

Consumer complaint received 08/31/2015 about Consumer Loan (Installment loan) with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (CA).
Issue: Taking out the loan or lease

Complaint: My complaint is about a dental practice that pushed particular credit source funding for services with inflated service and credit costs and several improprieties that occurred in that process, and it is about the credit companies themselves and their predatory nature in offering credit to someone with a terrible credit rating. As a consumer, I was lied to, pressured, and inadvertently trapped into a horrible debt situation that I had stated repeatedly that I could not take on and did not want to take on. I gave in to pressure that should never have been applied and made bad decisions based on dishonest information given to me.
