Consumer complaint received 09/14/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (OK).
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, 2017, Equifax went public with news that they failed to prevent a breach of their security and millions of American 's sensitive identifying data was taken by cyber-criminals. Unfortunately, despite having never personally done business with Equifax, their website says that I was affected. Equifax has profited for years on the buying and selling of my personal identifying information. Because of their inability to keep my personal information safe, I will forever have to deal with the consequences of their actions, not my own, and their actions may make it harder for me to buy a home, a car or for my future kids to afford college. This is devastating and none of it was my fault.

Issue: Other fee

Complaint: I was unknowingly enrolled in discover cards payment protection service since XX/XX/2009.

Consumer complaint received 12/21/2017 about Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service (Virtual currency) with Coinbase, Inc. (NY).
Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint: Deposited a non insignificant amount of digital currency into the site, Coinbase.com. The transfer was from a trading account on a separate and unrelated site, XXXX. Coinbase received the transfer of bitcoins. I decided a few days later I no longer wanted to liquidate my position on coinbase so I attempted to transfer the coins back into a wallet I control ( as in owning the private keys and not on an exchange ). However, coinbase would not let me withdraw my coins and demanded further identification. Identification that I had on file should have been good enough since I had bought coins on coinbase before even back in XXXX. I attempted to submit identification anyway though coinbase and even though I followed the instructions carefully, it would reject my ID without given a reason code. After calling a customer support to help me withdraw my coins, he told me that I would have to submit even more documentation and that it would take 3-5 days. I asked him how could this happen and he abrubptly hung up the phone. His name was XXXX, and had me on hold for over 90 minutes at one point as well. Very unprofessional and at this current time, the situation is tantamount to theft. I leave my position open on bitcoins and I am supposed to wait 3 - 5 days AFTER submitting MORE documentation without even having purchased those coins on coinbase in the first place. It 's ridiculously negligent.

Consumer complaint received 02-11-2017 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX).
Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Information is not mine

Complaint: My personal information was leaked or stolen XX/XX/2008 and has been used to obtain medical accounts, loans, and education in my name. I was barely legal I 've been aware of this but had no resource or way to fix it. Tried disputing accounts, tried locking my credit, tried calling the places, and even changing my social. Was n't until last year I did more research on how to take control of this. My wife and I both have been affected and have managed to buy stuff given this, and when we spoke to the police department they did n't have many answers just to either go to the credit bureaus or change my name because they said it was common? I 've been compiling evidence or proof against the creditors and credit bureaus because they do n't seem to care or they think I 'm lying. Figured this was my last stop or just wait seven years I guess for this to fall off my credit.

Consumer complaint received 04-04-2015 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (NY).
Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint: I have been unemployed for the past XXXX months. I just started work this week, and got funds going back into my account. I had {$30.00} set aside ( the only funds that I had ) for my bus ticket from XXXX to XXXX to visit my elderly parents for XXXX. Chase bank gave me without warning a {$12.00} fee because I have not been making the direct deposit amount. Which I understand, I did not ask to waive it just to postpone it, they refused because they have waived it in the past. {$12.00} to Customer Care Specialists XXXX XXXX of XXXX Ohio is nothing, but to me it is me not able to go home now for XXXX. She told me not to take it personally but to make other travel arrangements. I just have myself, and my edler parents can not put money in a chase account in XXXX because there is no Chase branches in XXXX or Maryland. She kept telling me over and over to make other XXXX Travel arrangements. I can not bike to XXXX from XXXX, I can not walk. So maybe she is suggesting that a Chase Client hitch hikes to XXXX? I asked very nicely if I could speak to someone higher on the food chain then her, she refused and to " comfort '' me it is nothing personal. Yes it is, for XXXX 2015 I am not spending it alone because Chase bank has trained their employees to not even show some compassion to any degree on a holiday. 

She was clearly low or middle management, I was polite the entire time on the phone she refused to let me even try speak to her supervisor. I did not raise my voice, said please/thank you. Again, I understand it is a fee that needs to be paid since I am not making the direct. But All I needed was XXXX more week to pay this {$12.00}. Again this was my bus money to see my family in XXXX for XXXX XXXX, an overnight actually because I am WORKING again late on Fridays. 

It is XXXX XXXX and I received no warning at all from Chase that I would be receive this {$12.00} fee. NO WARNING. If I knew this, I would have bought my bus ticket yesterday and would be able to go home for XXXX XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX, https : XXXX, located in the XXXX Ohio HQ . If are you get her on the phone. It is best to politly decline any help from her and call back to get another CSR on the phone. She is not willing to help. 
I now have alot of time this XXXX XXXX to research policy and let fellow consumers know that it is more important to Chase Bank that they have {$12.00} from you because you have been poor the last month then a customer going to their only family on XXXX or to hitch hike down XXXX for XXXX to XXXX hours because that is the " other arrangement ''. 

I am closing with that I did not want it refunded. Just waived for one week so that I could go home. XXXX XXXX of XXXX Ohio ( https : XXXX ) Happy XXXX XXXX!!!!!!!

Consumer complaint received 01/30/2017 about Debt collection (Non-federal student loan) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (IL).

Consumer complaint received 09/26/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with AMERICAN INTERNET MORTGAGE (CO).
Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint: When processing our new mortgage AimLoan.com, used an automated estimate from the county assessor 's website with erroneous data that produced a tax estimate more than three times the correct amount. This was not disclosed until they provided a loan commitment letter on XXXX/XXXX/2015, and we immediately brought the error to their attention. Since we were already well past the originally scheduled closing date, they advised we could close with the erroneous tax estimate, and it could be corrected immediately after closing. Based on the bad estimate, at closing, AimLoan collected a large escrow deposit that more than covered a whole year 's worth of taxes and insurance. After closing, we notified the servicing company of the problem verbally over the phone, and they instructed us to e-mail the correct estimate from the assessor ( which we had to obtain ourselves ), and they would fix the problem. After not hearing from them for a week, we received a statement listing a $ XXXX monthly escrow charge, so we sent them a RESPA notice about the error dated XXXX/XXXX/2015 ( now up to more than 4 separate contacts about the problem ). The only response we received was an acknowledgement dated XXXX/XXXX/2015 that they had received the RESPA notice. Then, on XXXX/XXXX/2015, we received another mortgage statement with the {$480.00} charge still listed. The lack of responsiveness and inability to correct an obvious mistake has prompted this complaint.

Consumer complaint received 06-05-2015 about Debt collection (Credit card) with ZWICKER & ASSOCIATES (FL).
Issue: Taking/threatening an illegal action
Sub-issue: Sued w/o proper notification of suit

Complaint: I have had payment arrangements with this debt collector for several years now. Thay have been taking the arranged payment from my bank account on a monthly basis. The terms of my arrangement have expired and they claim that because I have n't contacted to make new arrangements, they have opted to sue me. XXXX days prior to being served, this company did take a payment from my account. I have never received any kind on notice outlining new payment arrangements.. I have never been sued and I find this to be just an excuse to get additional money from me. I am emotionally distraught over this. They have served me and I want to know if I shoulld retain a lawyer to protect me from any further action. I do n't want to tarnish a very good credit rating.
