Company: Exeter Finance, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
After a lot of calls from this company I did not know, ( because I thought it was a scam because I never saw this name during the purchasing process ). I spoke with a few people at the number and subsequently asked for a supervisor. I was told by this person that I had to pay over {$1300.00} and that there would be no negotiation. Previously, I spoke with my banking institution prior to purchase, who were willing to assist with lower interest rates on payments ( Exeter was charging 21.78 % ). After the institution looked at my credit rating they informed me that I had dropped from a XXXX with all three bureaus to 600+ score. I was denied. Being on a fixed income that is lower than the amount being demanded, I asked about arbitration or just lower the amount. I never got to say that I wanted to retain the vehicle. I was under the belief that the payments would be {$200.00} lower. I was also told that the warranty did not contain some of the information necessary for car maintenance, I was stranded for two days and had to personally pay. I am still waiting for reimbursement I was told I would receive. And the dealership and finance company never reviewed my credit score as far as I know.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
My payment to XXXX of {$20.00} on XX/XX/2024 was canceled. I've called my bank and they said that they have not received any return payments from cashapp because cash app has stopped the return payment. I've tried to find out where and why my money is stopped and have been repeatedly lied to and laughed at and hung up on by cash app customer service representatives. Specifically XXXX and XXXX. I would like to submit complaints on both of them : XXXX and XXXX. 

I also would like to have my {$20.00} returned to my account. I also feel that because of the difficulties presented by all cash app customer service involved, that I should be compensated further for my troubles. This service is unacceptable and the fact that cash apps own agents have canceled my refund payment is a distinct violation of the cash app terms of service. And the fact that no one can tell me what I did to have my payment canceled is another violation of the cashapp terms of service. The fact that I've been lied to for 3 days is another violation of cashapps policies. Why has my {$20.00} settled in cashapps accounts but not my own? I want my {$20.00} credited to my account today please. I've attached screenshots of supporting information on this transaction from my debit card statements and cashapps application stating that the money has settled but not in either of my accounts.

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX, and I first want to thank you for taking the time to read this complaint. Ive had a great experience with XXXX XXXX and my goal is to maintain the relationship weve built over the past month of XXXX and XXXX year of XXXX. I recently pulled my XXXX, XXXX, XXXX credit report and discovered I have a late payment that was reported in XX/XX/XXXX for my XXXX XXXX  Credit Card XXXX During that time period, I had a medical emergency due to XXXX. I mailed XXXX XXXX several letters informing them of my financial hardship at the start of the Coronavirus pandemic. Unfortunately, the XXXX pandemic has brought unforeseen circumstances into my life. As a direct consequence of the pandemic, I lost my job, resulting in a sudden loss of income. The financial strain caused by this unexpected situation has made it increasingly difficult for me to meet my financial obligations, including making timely payments on my XXXX XXXX account. 

I would like to express my deepest sympathies for the lives lost and the hardships endured by individuals and communities worldwide due to this unprecedented health crisis. The XXXX pandemic has had a profound impact on all aspects of life, including the global economy and the livelihoods of countless individuals. I want to acknowledge the impact of the XXXX pandemic on individuals and families worldwide, including myself. Unfortunately, I lost my job due to the economic downturn caused by the pandemic. As a result, I faced significant financial challenges and was unable to meet my financial obligations, including my credit card payments. 

Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ( CARES Act ) to minimize the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic and to provide relief to individuals affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. Under this legislation, there are provisions that protect consumers ' credit reporting during this challenging time. The CARES Act requires creditors to report accounts as current if the account was current before the consumer requested an accommodation, such as a forbearance or modified payment arrangement, due to Coronavirus hardships. This protection is crucial for individuals like me who have experienced financial difficulties beyond our control. 

I am currently in the process of securing a mortgage, and my mortgage loan officer has advised me that removing these late payments from my credit profile would significantly enhance my creditworthiness and increase my chances of approval. For that reason, Im requesting an Accommodation under the Cares Act. 

I desperately need this mortgage and I would be extremely appreciative if you would please complete a UDF - Universal Data Form and fax it to the credit reporting agencies to update these late payments.
