Consumer complaint received 12/21/2016 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle loan) with ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (CA).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: I recently submitted a complaint against Ally Bank and this complaint has a lot to do with the first XXXX. 

In my previous complaint, I mentioned a conversation with a customer service representative named XXXX. Before that conversation with XXXX ended, I asked her if she could tell me the principle amount that was left on my auto loan. She could not find that information and transferred me to a customer service agent that could. Her name was XXXX and she refused to tell me what that principle amount that was left was! I explained to XXXX that it 's a simple interest loan which means that there is a finance charge that is tacked onto the principle amount. She said that the principle amount was {$14000.00}. I said that was the total amount left on the loan and again asked her what the principle amount was. She said that the {$14000.00} was the outstanding balance on the account as well. She would not answer my question and that was also very concerning for me. Ally wo n't tell me what the principle amount is, because if I pay that amount off first, they will lose out on the interest amount! XXXX said she would mail a letter explaining the loan ... it should be available on my online account but currently is not! 
I called Ally back, XXXX XXXX, 2016, at XXXX XXXX time XXXX I spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX. I asked him the same question regarding the principle amount remaining on my loan. He did n't have the answer and put me on hold and said that he would transfer me to someone who could answer that question. I was on hold for about 10 minutes before Ally disconnected the phone call. It appears that they do n't want me to know the principle amount owed because it is less than the {$14000.00} outstanding balance. And with a simple interest loan, if I pay the principle off first, Ally loses out on the interest. I know that there is a 6.74 % interest rate included in that outstanding balance. 
At that point, I was frustrated with Ally because here I am trying to work with them and it appears that they are trying to pull a fast XXXX on me. 
I need your help in resolving this issue. Ally was already found guilty of charging higher interest rates on minorities- which I happen to be- who applied for an auto loan and this is headed directly down that path. A simple breakdown on my loan is all that I 'm asking for. How much of the {$14000.00} is the principle amount? It can not be the principle and outstanding balance. The finance company for the last vehicle I bought, broke the loan down completely. The amount of the car, the interest rate, and the total dollar amount of the interest over the XXXX period. Surely Ally Bank can do this! Would you please assist me in finding out why Ally CAN NOT or WILL NOT provide me this information?

Consumer complaint received 09/14/2015 about Credit card () with BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (TX).
Issue: APR or interest rate

Complaint: On XXXX/XXXX/15 I signed-up for a Wyndham Rewards Barclay Card as part of a Wyndham time-share program I purchased. The Barclay VISA credit card was used for the down payment. The terms of the Barclay agreement I received that day said 0 % APR for balance xfers for 45 days after opening account. When I received the credit card about two weeks later in the mail, the balance xfer terms were 0 % APR for 0 days after opening account. The online account also says 0 % APR for 0 days after opening the account. This is an error I would like to get fixed.

Consumer complaint received 10/24/2015 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle loan) with BANK OF THE WEST (AZ).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: In XXXX, my husband and I purchased a motor home financed by Bank of the West in California. For six years we diligently made the {$610.00} a month payment, totaling about {$46000.00} on the {$70000.00} loan. The interest rate was very high at the time. As we increasingly felt the effect of the XX/XX/2008 crisis and we lost a lot of income, we could no longer afford those payments. We prevailed on Bank of the West to refinance our loan. They told us they would not even consider it because we were current in our payments -- we needed to be at least 90 days in arrears. So we let our payments lapse and used the money to make other financial obligations. Then they said they would not refinance the loan : bottom line they repossessed our motor home. They sold it at auction for {$20000.00} despite the fact that we had found a buyer for {$30000.00} who they refused to consider. Then they told us we owed them {$50000.00}. They would n't even take into consideration the money already paid over a six year period. They set us up on a payment plan of {$150.00} a month. Fast forward three years : we have been making payments religiously, and have paid down {$5000.00}, but they report us to the credit bureaus ( I have written XXXX, XXXX and XXXX but I have not heard anything ) as though we are always 30 days late when we are not. 
As time has gone on, our fixed income Social Security has not gone up, but everything else has. Our payments on our medical supplements have increased substantially, along with taxes, insurance and life insurance premiums. Utility bills are continuing to rise, and we can no longer afford the mortgage payments on our house. We can not refinance our house because of the bad credit report from Bank of the West, and now two other things are happening as a result of Bank of the West : 1 ) Our homeowners insurance is going to double XX/XX/XXXX {$1300.00} because we no longer have an XXXX credit rating, and 2 ) XXXX XXXX is going to close our credit cards despite the fact that we have never abused them, which will hurt our credit even further. We are in our XXXX, and within a few months will be in danger of losing our house. I called Bank of the West and asked if they would consider a lower than {$150.00} a month asset recovery payment -- they said they would not. I asked them if they would please report our credit in a better way to let creditors know that we are paying on time and they said they " have the right to report our credit any way they want to. '' This repossession is the only " bad '' mark we have ever had on our credit in all our adult life. We are at wits end as to what to do. Bank of the West says they will take everything we have. Bankruptcy is n't an option to us. Please help.

Consumer complaint received 03-02-2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with AES/PHEAA (FL).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: I took out a Plus loan for my son and have been making payments regularly. The loan servicer is Fed Loan Servicing with the US Department of Education. The loan is a fixed rate loan with a 25 year payment. I believe that we are in year five of the repayment. My issue is that the amount that is applied to interest and the amount applied to principal is not consistent. There are fluctuations that to me seem that the amounts to each are applied arbitrarily. Here is the payment history for the past six months. I have repeatedly asked the servicer for an explanation but to date have not received a satisfactory explanation : Payment Date Principal Interest XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Perhaps your assistance in this matter could help shed some light on this. I would appreciate any help you can provide and await your response.

Consumer complaint received 07/29/2016 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (IL).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: I have had a mortgage with Ocwen Mortgage, Loan # XXXX since XXXX ( been a homeowner since XXXX - NEVER made a late mortgage payment EVER ). In XXXX I applied for and received a HAMP loan through them. For the past year I have made multiple calls attempting to get the {$5000.00} I am owed for paying my mortgage on time which I should have gotten after the XXXX ( XXXX ) or XXXX ( XXXX ) year, which was part of the deal. I have my mortgage deducted automatically every month on the XXXX for the current month ( so XXXX XXXX was deducted/paid on XXXX XXXX for instance. ) I have gotten a constant run around from Ocwen. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I was handed over to escalation manager XXXX, XXXX, who assured me I would receive the {$5000.00} against my principal by XXXX. When I called back on XXXX to see how everything was going, XXXX had left the company and I had to start over. I spoke with XXXX, XXXX, who escalated my case to the Concern Department. On XXXX XXXX and I spoke and he guaranteed I will get my money - he just needed a few more days to research. I had to call back over and over - sometimes he returned my call and sometimes not. Today - XXXX, at XXXX CT - he told me that I paid my mortgage late between XXXX and XXXX so I would not be getting the {$5000.00}. I asked how that can be when I have it automatically deducted each month. He would n't listen and said I would get a letter in the mail. If you look at the documentation I will attach you will see my mortgage payment is taken out every month on the XXXX ( statements show a day or two later for it to clear ). However, if you look at the transactions they have on line ( also attached ) it will make your head spin. They clearly applied and then deducted/suspended many many times over the payments I made. And now they have sold the mortgage to XXXX XXXX XXXX so I am stuck between the two. I 'm hoping you can help!
