Consumer complaint received 08/24/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NJ).
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint: Please refer to complaint # XXXX. Since there is no way to reopen a complaint I am forced to open a new one. In the complaint previously filed, XXXX indicates that they NEVER received a XXXX XXXX, 2016 letter from me regarding the issues I was having with their credit reporting. It took me a bit longer than I would have liked, but I knew I had a copy of my letter along with the signed Returned Receipt and my receipt from the Post office. As I have indicated in the prior complaint, XXXX has been the most disorganized company to work with and even when I was paying ahead of schedule they were showing Late payments and reporting it to the Credit bureau. In their response to me which they attached a copy to the above complaint they indicate their first notice of this complaint was in XXXX sometime. It was in XXXX and I am attaching the proof. This is not fare to comsumers and should not be allowed. Once again you can see that they ca n't keep their own records straight, yet they are allowed to ruin their customers credit. Please address this. They have once again lied.

Consumer complaint received 04/28/2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (AL).
Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint: As a working mother, my family has banked with regions for several years now. I do n't recall them asking, but I know they switched our statements to online only, and we no longer receive paper statements. My husband nor I have had much experience managing finances and live paycheck to paycheck to make ends meets. Recently when I needed information, I found our online statements online ( not easy to find since I use mobile banking per the bank 's request ), and realized my family had paid the bank thousands and thousands of dollars in overdraft fees and fines each month. We barely get by as it is, and I was sickened to see that my trusted financial institution had not only been charging me multiple fees for single transactions, but allowed this outrageous amount of fees to be charged month after month. Never once did we receive any letters indicating we were incurring so many charges, never once did we receive a phone call and I honestly do n't remember even signing up for overdraft protection. I see now its a button you can click, but its not very clear and would be easy to click and forget about. The only time I recall intentionally signing up for any overdraft protection was when we had a savings account linked, which was closed years ago. I am now learning to budget and take control over my finances, but feel taken advantage of by Regions and feel it should have put a limit on the maximum number of fees, or turned off the overdraft service ( which I am not 100 percent certain I ever signed up for. ) In XXXX my family paid {$6400.00} in overdraft fees to Regions, in XXXX my family paid almost {$11000.00} in fees to Regions and in XXXX these past few months alone, we 've already paid {$4000.00} in fees. I will be moving banks in the near future to an institution that I feel is a trusted partner, and an institution that will counsel and advise families like mine, scraping by on how to better budget and manage finances. Instead I feel Regions robbed me blind and unfortunately I was not wise enough to realize it before now. Regions has not helped my family achieve our financial goals, instead they have stolen them from me and my children. There are weeks we scrape by to make ends meet, but that I now know is in large part to Regions deceitful and manipulative policies.

Consumer complaint received 03-10-2017 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC. (NY).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: I opened a bank account with HSBC in XX/XX/XXXX and was told that I would get a promotion bonus as long as I did 2 bill pay over each billing period for the next three cycles. My month statements ends on the XXXX of each month. 

I did 2 bill pay on XX/XX/XXXX, 2 on XX/XX/XXXX and 2 on XX/XX/XXXX. When i messaged to ask about the bonus not posting, i was lied that the bonus was for bill pay over three different months, not three billing statements, which is clearly a lie, as I was told in person by the banker it would have been over the billing statements. I met the requirements as the bill pay i did fell in three different billing cycles, but HSBC refuses to pay the bonus. 

They should be ashamed by lying to people for fake bonuses, and then changing the requirements.

Consumer complaint received 12/13/2016 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (CO).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: This is more of dispute than a complaint, but still is a matter pertaining to the amount paid and the current outstanding balance noted for my student loans. Navient, my current student loan servicer, does not have a dispute submission channel available and I believe this matter is beyond the scope of a normal escalation. I graduated with my XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX and have made all of my payments since graduation prior to the Due Date noted on each statement beginning with my first student loan payment on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. My student loans have not always been held by the same servicing company. My first payments were made directly to the Department of Education, then the loans were serviced by XXXX XXXX, and most recently the loans have transferred to a different company called Navient. Navient 's customer portal is the first loan servicing company that has allowed me to see the entire transaction history for my account. Prior to this full history display I was only given statements itemizing what was due for the next immediate Due Date and was not provided with any information as to how payments were applied to principal and interest throughout the repayment process. The first payments I made were as follows : XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$500.00}, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$800.00}, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$800.00}, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$350.00}, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$1000.00}, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$200.00}, and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for {$1000.00}. These initial payments all total {$4600.00}. None of these payments are reflected in the entire history of my account despite all of these payments were made to the Department of Education directly. The lack of inclusion of these payments would then impact subsequent interest accrual as well as the remaining balance still due and loan maturity date/payoff date. I can provide bank statements as well as email confirmations from the respective loan servicing companies to account for the missing payments. I would like my account to be reviewed and corrected to show the proper balance as well as reflect ALL payments made to date. Through today ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) I have paid {$10000.00} and the balance on my current outstanding balance is incorrectly noted on the Navient portal as {$10000.00}. 

In addition to this large payment discrepancy there are XXXX ( XXXX ) transactions that were all noted in the account history between XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX as " adjustments/fees. '' I was not notified of these fees and as my loan repayment history and credit report would indicate, I have never missed a payment to-date and would also like these fee assessments reviewed. If they were applied in error, I 'd like them removed as well.
