Consumer complaint received 04/26/2017 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with Provadus LLC (FL).
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint: On Friday XX/XX/XXXX I contacted loan XXXX XXXX XXXX with Profund Mortgage LLC in XXXX at XXXX to refinance my mortgage.He gave me a verbal quote and said to make loan application on line which I did.His quote was as follows : loan balance of {$190000.00} with 2.75 % for XXXX year term with no lender fees. 
XXXX told me he had over 10 years of experience in the mortgage industry. 
On Monday XX/XX/XXXX I follow up with XXXX but he was sick. On XX/XX/XXXX I provided him with all information he requested including tax returns for 2 years, insurance, bank statements for 2 years etc. He send me the loan estimate with the above terms as promised. 
On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX sent me the the loan estimate and other documents to sign electronically.To my surprise the loan estimate to sign were different than the original one. 
The new terms were as follows : loan amount had been changed to {$190000.00} and lender origination fee was now {$3300.00} instead of zero. 
Once I contacted XXXX he immediately changed it to the original terms and said it was a " computer glitch ''. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I provided XXXX XXXX with my credit card information to charge the appraisal fee. 
On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX called to notify me that he could no longer do the loan with the terms already signed and rate locked on the loan estimate. He then referred me to his XXXX XXXX XXXX who basically said the same thing. 
They could now offer me a new loan with a higher interest rate with no lender fees. 
What is a written loan estimate worth if no one is holding the lenders firm to their commitment? 
My personal situation did not change in those few days. My XXXX XXXX is XXXX, loan to value in the property is 50 %, great income with no debt. The ideal borrower. 
How can a lender do business like that? I call it bait and switch and this should be taken seriously. I would stay away from this unscrupulous lender.

Consumer complaint received 10/25/2016 about Credit card () with BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (IL).
Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint: I applied for Bank of America XXXX XXXX Visa Signature card, which was prominently advertised as having a XXXX mile sign-up bonus and {$100.00} statement credit as incentives after {$1000.00} in spend on the card. I was informed that I was approved for the card, and at no point did they mention that I had actually been approved for a different product. Fast forward to me having met the spending requirements, and I find out I had actually been approved for the XXXX XXXX Visa Platinum card, which only offers a XXXX miles bonus and no statement credit. 

The physical appearance of the XXXX cards are nearly identical ( the only difference being a small word " signature '' or " platinum '' in the bottom-right corner ). The only mention that you might be considered for alternative products is buried deep in the fine print of the application ( I had to go find it after the fact ), and there is no way to opt out of consideration for the alternative product. I have never seen any similar process with any other major card issuer ( and I have had cards from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX ). This feels like a deliberate bait-and-switch, and many other feel similarly, from reading online.

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about my loan

Complaint: Hi - I got a student loan from Nelnet to attend XXXX. As I was an XXXX XXXX, XXXX set up a XXXX in order to secure the loan.

Recently XXXX took over my XXXX, and without really informing me of anything, are now saying that since they do n't have my original SSN on record, they will not give me my XXXX XXXX form ( even with the XXXX SSN ). I immediately sent them a scanned copy of my SSN, but they now say it 's too late. Since I was never informed of this change, and only now am told it 's too late, I am filing a complaint as I stand to lose XXXX hundred dollars in this arbitrary process change.

Sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

Consumer complaint received 09/30/2016 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY).
Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Information is not mine

Complaint: TRANSUNION is reporting inaccurate information on my credit report which is causing me great emotional & financial distress. I 've been disputing an account which reflects on their reports as XXXX XXXX XXXX / {$210.00}. I have no idea who this company it is & feel the reporting of the account in general is a severe violation of the FCRA. ALl information is supposed to reflect 100 % accuracy. I do n't know about you but this is very confusing. I 've asked them to remove it twice & they continue to claim its been verified. I 've done some of my own due diligence & think I know who the company is so I sent them a letter requesting further information as to how this information was verified & has received nothing back from them as well. Since no one is able to verify the accuracy of the information & the data furnisher has failed to respond to my request for verification as well I would like it removed immediately. Both XXXX & XXXX have both removed the alleged account ...

Consumer complaint received 08/18/2016 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle loan) with ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (OK).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: I am behind a payment. I contacted Ally to make arrangements, they told me that they could defer XX/XX/XXXX and move XX/XX/XXXX to the end of the note and that my next payment would be XX/XX/XXXX, provided that I make the XX/XX/XXXX payment. This payment was made and all was well. In the first week or so in XX/XX/XXXX I received a call and was told that the agreement was not for XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX but for XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX and that I was late. I told them that I took the opportunity to pay off other commitments in order to avoid this in the future and that payment would have to wait until XX/XX/XXXX. ( both XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX would be paid then ) since then I have received daily phone calls. They state that they need information but I have given them the same information every time. It is clear that this is no longer about communicating but about harassing me. Arrangements have been made in good faith, even after they change the original agreement without my knowledge.

Consumer complaint received 02-03-2018 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (IL).
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan

Complaint: I have made an agreement to pay my loans after a 45 minute phone on XX/XX/2018 ( my birthday no less ) via automatic debit. The first of these debits was to have taken place per the authorization I agreed over the phone and per the document dated XX/XX/2018 mailed to my residence. It is now XX/XX/2018 and not automatic debit has not been taken and I am receiving emails the payment plan I did not qualify for. The company can not be reached by phone and by logging on to the website nothing is reflecting the agreed to payment plan. By all indications this reprehensible company is backing out of agreement that had to go to a manager whom gave no indication could not go through. This company needs a serious review of whether they should be operating.

Consumer complaint received 01/25/2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with BMO HARRIS BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX).
Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Complaint: We had a XXXX XXXX walk away from us in the middle of a project. He asked for XXXX checks from us. XXXX in which I called XXXX XXXX to have cancelled - however they never cancelled the check and the fraudulant XXXX walked away with twice the amount of money he should have taken us for. I provided a customer service rep with the check number and the amount which needed to be cancelled. To my surprise a check for {$45.00} was cancelled instead of the check for {$7500.00} ( check number XXXX ). Since the following check to the fraudualnt XXXX was also cashed, I am at a loss of {$15000.00} instead of {$7500.00} due to harris bank not properly canceling the first check. When I spoke with Multiple layers of management, they told me there was nothing they could do because they claim I gave them the wrong check number. 
They should have never allowed the {$7500.00} to leave my bank account and should be liable for such a loss.

Consumer complaint received 04/25/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI).
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint: I attempted to make a Payment to  XXXX   XXXX , an old collection on my credit report. I informed the Credit bureau that the debt was in error and further that they had no recent history or activity of my account. I only found out about this company by looking at my credit report in the first place, NOT directly from the company. Further there is limited information on my credit report about this company. SO First last month I disputed that line item found on my credit report, However I was told it was valid, based only the word of the credit bureau ONLY and not on them presenting external verification that the tradeline was valid or active or legit fro m 3rd  party.     I resolved to test the validity of the tradeline based ONLY on the information found in my credit report by THIS credit Reporting company. I sent them a test payment to see if it would post to the account in question with this company using only the tradeline information in my report.     The result?   The Payment was returned . ( See letter  from company and attached returned check. ) They (  XXXX   XXXX   ) Informed me th ey no longer service my account. Therefore they are no longer actively or validly accessing my credit report to update it.     This means, They do n't have me a  s a credit collections client and therefore it should be removed as any attempt previously made to Validate was null and void, as it would of returned the same results : according to FCRA law [ 623 ( a ) ( b ) ].
Also..     That it seems the credit reporting agency didnt fully engage the furnisher of the tradeline at the time of the my first complaint, which seems not only erroneous but misleading, possibly an aggravated violation of the FCRA law.

Consumer complaint received 01-09-2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL).
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint: Following the receipt of my credit report late last year from the XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion consumer reporting agencies, I learned of an two separate adverse accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX  and the U.S. Department of Education. Said accounts reported to all three credit reporting agencies under account numbers XXXX and XXXX - exact same account, reporting as two separate creditors. 


I never had two separate student loans. Disputes with the credit reporting agencies were for naught as both XXXX XXXX XXXX and the U.S. Department of Education merely confirmed the accounts. I complained to the creditors about the duplicate reporting - in writing - and even completed disputes with the credit reporting agencies. They were also ignored with no explanation whatsoever. 


Once again - I never maintained two separate student loan accounts. This companies ignored my concerns despite evidence to the contrary and complaints to the XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion consumer credit reporting agencies. My FICO credit scores have been severely impacted as these separate accounts report as collection entries. 

I now file my complaint to the CFPB seeking relief.
