Consumer complaint received 12/16/2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (Store credit card) with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (MN).
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint: I opened a XXXX XXXX credit card ( serviced by XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I never had a late payment since I had the card. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I attempted to use my card to make a purchase at a XXXX XXXX store. At the time, I was told my account had been closed. 

This was a surprise to me, as I had checked my account online before going to make the purchase. I have included screenshots of my online account from XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( you can see the dates in the lower right hand corner ). It clearly shows a zero balance and a {$4500.00} credit limit ( see screenshot # XXXX on the attachment ). It also shows that I have a next statement date of XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

I called their service number and spoke with a customer service representative. They told me that my account was closed in early XXXX, XXXX. I asked why this was done without notification or warning. The representative checked and confirmed that no letter or email was sent to me to notify me of the closure. They could not explain the account showing as open on the website. They told me I would need to apply for a new account. I told them I did not want to open a new account because that would require a new credit pull, which would be unfair to me. 

I asked to be escalated to a XXXX who told me the account was closed and confirmed there was no adverse action behind closing my account. They refused to open or allow me use of my account. 

I am confused that my account was closed without warning or notification. I am also confused that I was sent marketing material information in late-XX/XX/XXXX when my account had been closed XXXX see screenshot # XXXX, email dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX ).

Consumer complaint received 11-12-2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with Residential Credit Solutions, Inc. (IL).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: After many months, we were finally able to reach an affordable loan modification with XXXX. But soon after that, XXXX grossly miscalculated our escrow - they charged us {$1200.00} per month for insurance instead of the correct amount of {$1200.00} per year. Despite repeated efforts on our part, they would not fix the problem, they stopped crediting our payments correctly, and they put us into default. Instead of fixing the problem, they sold our account to RCS, which is now foreclosing on us because of XXXX malfeasance.

Consumer complaint received 10/14/2016 about Payday loan () with GVA Holdings, LLC (FL).
Issue: Charged fees or interest I didn't expect

Complaint: I borrowed {$700.00} on XXXX from a company called North Cash and I knew that it would be an expensive loan if I did n't pay it off early. The representative even stated that if I were to pay the loan off early I would save significantly on finance charges. The finance charges that I am being charged are {$190.00} every two weeks. I called in early XXXX to get my pay off balance and was told at that point that the payoff amount would be over {$800.00} ( ca n't remember the exact amount ). I was confused because at this point I had already paid over {$900.00} towards the loan and I could n't understand why the balance was more that the amount I borrowed.I had a family emergency that came up around that time so I was n't in a head space to follow up on that conversation. I have paid {$190.00} every two weeks since XXXX and when I called to get the pay off balance on XXXX I was told that I would have to pay over {$900.00} to pay the loan off. When I asked how that was possible the representative told me that I still would be responsible the remaining interest on the loan and I just do n't understand! When I crunch the numbers what she told me is incorrect about owing the remaining interest because the amount would be much more, but I also do n't understand how she came up with the amount that she gave to me. I 've worked very hard to get my credit back up to the mid XXXX 's so I do n't want to do anything that will cause a blemish, but it just seems like this is n't legal what North Cash is doing.

Consumer complaint received 08/29/2017 about Debt collection (Other debt) with Debt Recovery Solutions, LLC (FL).
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX, I opened an account with XXXX XXXX. A month after opening the account I received my first bill. The amount billed was almost double to the agreed price when service was established. I called XXXX to dispute and we agreed to close the account. I paid the remaining balance and sent the equipment in. In XX/XX/XXXX I learned of an account in collections that I was unaware of. The account holder is Debt Recovery Solutions with a collection amount of {$2400.00}. I contacted them at the time to verify the debt which is when I learned it was a XXXX account. I then reviewed my credit report and found that XXXX is also reporting an open collection for the same amount. I have over the last several months contacted XXXX to not find any resolution. XXXX is telling me that they have no record of the account and all liabilities and accounts were sold to XXXX XXXX. I was directed to them, XXXX has provided me in writing that they have no record of the debt. 

My complaint is how can two companies report the same debt? Furthermore why are they reporting it given that they can not provide any information about the validity of the debt? Debt Recovery Solutions has claimed they have proof, which I would still dispute, and which they have not provided me. XXXX, XXXX XXXX and Debt Recovery Solutions have failed to prove a valid debt and has violated the law with the dual reporting. The only thing I have received from my inquires was increased calls and letters from Debt Recovery Solutions.

Consumer complaint received 02-07-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (PA).
Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint: TD Bank has charged an overdraft fee for a situation in which we make a check deposit minus " cash ''. If there is not a balance in your existing checking account ( pre-deposit ) to cover the " cash '' portion that you are taking from your deposit, they charge an overdraft fee. 
I understand that technically you are taking money off of a check that has not yet cleared so essentially you are taking withdrawal from you checking account but that is NOT explained to you at the time you are standing with the teller making the transaction. You do n't find out until you see the overdraft fee and call the bank to understand where its coming from. 
The complaint is regarding a deceptive practice. Its fine if the policy is as it is but it should be the teller 's responsibility to tell the customer that they do n't have the money in their checking account to cover the withdrawal so they can either choose to take it against an alternative account that has the funds or they can take a lesser amount so they do not incur the fee, otherwise they will incur the fee. 
TD Bank does not do that at the point of the transaction which is just a way for them to collect a fee.

Consumer complaint received 11-06-2015 about Student loan (Non-federal student loan) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (FL).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: In XXXX of this year I asked Navient, my student loan company, to change the due date from the beginning of the month to the XXXX of each month because it would make it easier for me to make the payments. As a result of this simple request, to which they had agreed on, I have had nothing but problems with my monthly payments. First, instead of changing the dates they put my loans into forbearance without my authorization. I found out about this the next month when i saw my statement showing the total loan amount increased instead of going down despite the extra payments they had ask me to make. They kept billing me different amount for the next XXXX month telling me I have a past due amount. After having talked a dozen times to different representatives and several supervise who kept telling me the problem was resolved, I was told that I had overpaid XXXX loan ( i have XXXX loans with them ) and that they had applied all the finds to XXXX single loan instead of dispersing it evenly among all the XXXX loans. Once again they told me it is resolved and I should wait two days and the record in the computer would update and it never did and they keep billing me different amounts, they are constantly calling me that i owe money and my payments are past due and this is been going on since XXXX of this year. At this point i do n't know what to do or who to call to get this situation fixed so that I can make my monthly payments the way that I have for the past several years, but unfortunately no one knows what they are doing and every time they tell me the exact same thing that it is taken care of and that I should wait two days for the computer to update and two days later I get calls again and the same things repeats. Please, this is a desperate call for help. Thank you.

Consumer complaint received 06/20/2017 about Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan (Installment loan) with Conn's, Inc. (NC).
Issue: Getting the loan

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, my husband and I went to Conn 's Home Furnishings on XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NC to look at furniture. We decided to purchase a bed set while we were there. We were told the price and told we could finance it for 0 % interest. I agreed to the purchase and gave my personal information to complete the purchase. After the company ran my credit, I was told that I had been misinformed about the 0 % interest offer. The cost of the bed was not above their threshold to offer 0 % interest. We were heavily pressured to spend more to get above that threshold. After we informed the salesman that we have no intent of spending more, he announced that they would not sell us that particular bed because it was a last model and they needed to check with the manufacturer to make sure they could sell it. That Monday, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I received a call saying that they could sell it but would need to get a price. I was told that the salesman, XXXX, would call me back on Wednesday, XXXX XXXX, XXXX with the price. My husband and I have tried calling several times and have received several messages ranging from messages saying there were extra models of that bed in a warehouse to calls saying we would be called back in a few minutes with the price. We have been repeatedly asking for the price and at no point have we been told what we will have to pay for this bed. Conn 's ran my credit under false pretenses. They had no intent to sell us the bed they agreed to sell us. They are refusing to let us know what they are going to charge us for this bed, but they have every intent to report a debt to " all XXXX credit bureaus '' according to the salesman. No information has been provided to me concerning the credit that was extended and the terms. What we have been left with is a credit report pulled for a transaction that Conn 's had no intention of upholding in an effort to sell us something else at a higher price. I want the pull removed from my credit reports and for these bait and switch practices to stop immediately.
