Consumer complaint received 07/22/2015 about Credit card () with TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (CA).
Issue: Closing/Cancelling account

Complaint: I have deliberately overpaid my Target Red credit card, which resulted in positive credit balance, in order to increase the purchasing limit on my Target credit card. But when I tried to use my card, Target suspended it and did not allow me to use their card to make purchases, nor did they accepted to close the account and refund the credit balance. 

I contacted Target to resolve the matter, but Target kept stalling and delaying for unreasonably long period of time. First they requested that I fax them XXXX documents to " verify my identity '', which I complied with by sending them the documents more than once as Target claimed they " did not receive '' my fax. Finally, Target admitted that they did receive the documents to verify my identity. 

But even after verifying my identity, Target refused to release the funds to me ( by letting me use the card, or by refunding me the balance on my credit card ). This time, Target demanded to verify the source of funds that I used to overpay my credit card, so I explained to them that the source was prepaid XXXX debit cards, which I used in their own store to pay my target credit card, and therefore they have the detailed record of the source using their own system, but Target still refused to release the credit balance with the pretext that they " need to investigate the source of the funds '', and they refused to give me a date for when their investigation will be competed. 

Already one whole month has gone by for this investigation and the investigation does not seem to be going anywhere, and to me it seems Target wants to keep this investigation going indefinitely for the sole purpose of stealing my credit balance rather than to actually do any investigation.

Consumer complaint received 08/25/2015 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle lease) with NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION (CT).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: This is a complaint about a lease with Nissan for a XXXX Nissan Rogue, lease started around XXXX 2010. At the end of the lease, we received a bill in the mail for approximately {$4000.00}! for the following : ( 1 ) It was a 39 month lease. After 36 months, we began looking into another option for a Nissan car to lease, mistakenly thinking it was a 36 month lease. When we chose a Nissan Altima and called up the dealer to put it into action, nobody said to us, " Hey, are you aware that you would be terminating your lease for the Rogue 3 months early if you go ahead with this Altima lease? '' Instead, they went ahead and leased us the Altima and just gave us a large penalty for that. Plus, it 's not as if we switched over to XXXX or something- we stayed with a Nissan . 
( 2 ) In addition, they billed us excessively for damage to the car. The car was not damaged at all, barely a scratch on it. There was only minor wear and tear that our damage waiver should have covered. When we asked for a breakdown of the damage, the only thing true on there was that a hubcap was missing ( stolen ). We were supposed to have a damage waiver in return for staying with Nissan, but that was a farce. We were helpless in fighting that because it was their word against ours. 
( 3 ) Our final complaint was a property tax of close to {$2000.00}. They never informed us there would be a property tax on a car we do n't own, and even so, that money should be billed to us each year, not all in one large ( unaffordable ) lump sum for 3 yrs total. Why did n't Nissan ever send us a bill over 3 years? 
We have always maintained a good credit, and this bill ruined our credit, as that sum was too large and unexpected. Please help us!

Consumer complaint received 08/22/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA).
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint: Ever since I was forced to file Bankruptcy in XXXX 2008 I  have made all payments on time as agreed and paid off all Credit Card Debt Monthly Balances in Full. All other installment loans such as Mortgage, Auto and other installment loans have all been paid on time as agreed or paid off sooner. I have only applied for and obtained credit as needed. After following all of the purposed recommendations my credit score still remains well below XXXX. My score seems to bounce back and forth in the low to hi XXXX 's. I would not have had to Bankrupt in the first place had our Government been in control of our Mortgage & Banking Lending Practices. The Housing Market would not have come to a complete CRASH had our Government put into place Strict Regulations to prevent Appraisers from preparing false Housing values, Our Government continues to fail to Regulate the Banking Industries Lending Practices and it appears that we are heading right back into another Recession. As for my own personal Credit score. It  appears that all three of the Credit Reporting Agencies are creating a false and very Low Unrealistic Credit Score. This has become very obvious based on my credit history since Bankruptcy. I believe they are doing this so that Lenders will not offer me the best credit available and instead these Bureaus are creating the scenario that forces me to pay higher interest rates and fees. Most importantly Experian Credit Report is what Credit Check Score is basing my Credit Score from. So I ask you again how can I improve my credit score to over XXXX? It is obvious that I pay all of my payments on time, keep all credit cards balance paid off every month and have done everything suggested by Credit Score as well as Experian. I am frustrated by the constant interference by the Credit Reporting Agencies and their low intentional Credit Scoring that is designed to force me the Consumer from obtaining the best credit available. A copy of this email has also been sent to the US Treasury and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for their review as well. Very Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Consumer complaint received 07/17/2015 about Debt collection (I do not know) with Suttell, Hammer & White, P.S (WA).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Impersonated an attorney or official

Complaint: Someone came to my home and served me with a " summons '' about a debt. When served a summons, the documents are supposed to be handed to the right party from my understanding, but these documents were handed to my roommate ( 3rd party ). Also, according to the FDCPA, sending documents that imitate actual court documents is in direct violation of debt collecting tactics. I 've checked my local courts for this case and nothing has shown up with my name and this may cause me to take legal action if necessary. 

I 'm not sure where this debt has come from, I thought it may have been something from college, but for the next year, my payments have been deferred.

Consumer complaint received 05-10-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with CITIBANK, N.A. (NY).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: In XXXX 2015 I visited my local Citibank branch and was told about their great bank account the citi gold account. While I had no need for this bank account since I already had XXXX, I was told about all the benefits of the account and a XXXX point sign up bonus as well which I was to receive 3 months later. This sounded great and I signed up for the account. Now 5 months later when I requested my points they said there was no such offer for me which is directly contradicting what I was told at the branch. I am outraged how a big bank like this can make such empty promises and expect to get away with it. I hope they give me the promised points.

Consumer complaint received 07-08-2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (General-purpose credit card or charge card) with CITIBANK, N.A. (CA).
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint: I have recently acquired a Best Buy - Citi Visa card. Before i ever used the card I called the phone number that was provided on the back of the credit card. I called to ascertain what payment amounts would be required and asked how to figure out, on my own how to figure how much money I would be required to pay. The person I contacted told me that I would never be required to pay more then {$27.00} a month. I wanted to be sure so I asked how much the minimum monthly payment expected for the card would be if my balance was {$700.00}? The person told me that the payment would be {$27.00}. I asked how much I would be required to pay if my balance was {$1500.00}? The person told me that my payment would be {$27.00}. I then asked how much my minimum monthly payment would be if I maxed the card out to {$2000.00}. The person once again told me it was {$27.00}. Last month my minimum payment was {$35.00}, and this month it was {$42.00} in a balance of a little more then {$1300.00}. I would not have used the card if I had known that I would be charged this amount of money. The amount is well over {$27.00} and the payment only payed {$13.00} to the principal. I was lied to and feel taken advantage of. I was not prepared for the credit card people to outright lie to me when I called them for information on how to figure out the payment expectations for using the card. When I called and asked the credit card people from the number that was provided to me on the back of the card, where I could get help from a governing body for credit cards he evaded my questions over and over. Finally I asked what country he was in and he said he was in the XXXX. The time was XXXXPST on the date XX/XX/17. He said his name was XXXX but he failed to give me any information that I could identify him with. Very sleazy situation. I asked to talk to his superior and he told me that this was not possible. He then said he could connect me with an American office. I was pretty sure he was about to hang up on me ... and he did. After " XXXX '' hung up on me I googled for help and found this web site. I hope you can help me figure out how to best deal with this very sleazy situation. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint: When checking my credit score it shows my amount increased by {$1300.00}. I contacted Navient to explain to what this increase is for. It seems everytime I am close to paying off my loan they add more to my loan. They can not explain to me what this amount is. Should I not have the right to know what the complete total is. That said is is money I owe to the school but that school is closed, so how do I still owe them money. Sounds very questionable and no one can give me a answer.
