Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2017 I submitted an online dispute with TransUnion and XXXX concerning Personal Identifying Information missing on my Credit Report / Public Records/ Tax lien ( 2 separate state tax liens ). The only option that fit my situation to file this complaint was listed under 'not mine '. Regardless, the information on my credit report /public records does not include the following : Legal name, DOB, Social Security number or address. They 're-verified ' that the information is correct without conducting a reasonable investigation ( FCRA ),  instead chose to utilize the XXXX system again ( this is not the first time I have contacted them to update or delete these liens ). The personal information they are providing does not meet the requirements per FACTA.They do not have or can not produce the original records showing these liens in fact belong to me. My county courthouse does not provide this information and neither does the NC Department of Revenue, but Transunion and XXXX employees are telling me that they contacted the courthouse and the clerk of court provided the information. That is not true, and if need be I can get the clerk of court to provide a written statement to the contrary. They do openly admit willful non-compliance by not following the law, but they do n't call it that. Also, they will not tell me what 'Method of Verification ' is being used per FCRA sec. 611, only that a vendor has 'verified ' the information. I am having the same issue with both TRANSUNION AND XXXX. I have contacted each agency listed above at least 5-6 times by certified letters, email disputes and phone calls, yet nothing changes. The lack of personal identification is continually being 'verified ' as accurate buy unknown, secret sources through the internet without any proof. I am providing proof of dispute and the 'Official public records ' in question. This document clearly does not contain the required information, only the name of a person is provided. I am not the only person with this name. So, how can the remaining information be verified if the official document does n't contain : address, social security number, or date of birth? It can not ... and they have continuously lied about it!

Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On or about XXXX XXXX, 2017, my account to both BUY and SELL cryptocurrency was blocked ( restricted ) on Coinbase. I have no ability to sell any of my virtual currency - of which I own over {$120000.00}. I can not buy more. They are holding my money XXXX, not allowing me to access the cryptocurrency  and sell when the market drops. I have sent emails every day, sometimes twice a day. At first they ignored me. Then I started sending XXXX messages to their support team and executives. They sent me a note from a customer support rep scolding me for being impatient and saying they were working on it. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a message saying my account had been unblocked. TOTAL LIE - I am still completely blocked. This is obviously illegal and a scam. I have over {$120000.00} sitting with this company that I can not access. They ignore all requests for help, have no phone support and when I did finally reach down their corporate office phone, all you get is a voicemail or an automatic hang-up. A company that goes to great lengths to make sure no one can contact them is a scam. These people hold millions of dollars in consumer funds and have thousands and thousands of angry customer complaints all over the internet. They need to be CLOSED DOWN.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My payment for my Amazon Store Card is due today, X/XX/2017. I previously had scheduled a payment to come out today, but logged into my Account this morning to update the payment amount. For some reason, Synchrony Bank has locked me out of this payment and I can not edit it. If the system says I have until XXXX to schedule a payment and for it to count for the same time, why did they process my payment before that time and not allowing me to edit it? This is against my cardholder agreement as I should be able to edit payments up until that time. Customer Service Reps are of no help and I was left on hold for over 20 minutes waiting for a Supervisor. Poor Customer Service all around!

Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Greetings, I was trying to get money from my account. My stylist was trying to cash a check I gave him and he was not able to do so. Sun Trust Bank called me. I did not get the call, my ringer was off. I called my stylist and he informed me that the bank would not cash my check. I have had several problems with Sun Trust as I am used to banking at a credit union and the bank has fees and poor communication about the rules. I have had financial problems. However, in this case my balance was more than 50k on XXXX XXXX, 2017. I go into the XXXX Sun Trust and give the teller my federal id and an expired NC license with a current bank card. The teller does not accept my ids so I go to a desk and empty my purse to locate my license and the bank manager gets upset and tells me to leave. I remain calm and try to locate my license, I do. The bank manager tells me to get out of his bank. I call the police. The police mediates. I explain to the bank manager that I am checking everything he is doing against another bank and he stops the transaction. I want him at the least written up and at the most fired!

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem lowering your monthly payments
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Even with the income-based repayment option, the payments are through the roof. They only take your pre-deduction income amount. I live in Illinois where the taxes are sky high and Insurance costs are the same. I lose about half of my check to deductions. I wish they would care enough to take this into consideration. Why base a payment repayment plan on a dollar amount that is n't the actual dollar amount you have as income. This company does not care about the individuals who are struggling to make ends meet. They only care about getting as much out of you monthly as they can until you pay off the loan or die. Knowing what I know now, I would have never even went to college.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
this is to piggy back on my claim XXXX They never got back to me. So why is this case closed? They gave me false information which I contested and after contesting it the claim closed without a response. And recently my loan interest went up again 3 % without my knowledge. I still have not been getting responses in the mail as I requested. When I asked if I can refinance they told me that I can, which is false ... they dont do refinancing, their " refinancing '' is interest only payments. At no time do they lower the interest rate. And they are not forthcoming that this is " interest only ''. I found out it was " interest only '' after asking a series of questions and asking what my new interest rate will be. They said it doesnt change and I would be paying interest only. Well, that is not refinancing. So I told them no, dont do that, I would never get the loans paid off all they would continue to make money off of me ... So they lied to me about lowering my interest. So recently I have been paying more on my student loans, as I would like to pay down the principle. And so their way of making more money off of me ( since I have been paying down the principle they are charging less interest ) is to increase my interest by 3 % on some of the loans ... So my increased payments mean nothing as now I am being charged more for interest. This is beyond bad business practice and does not have the lenders best interest in mind.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I made a complaint against Ocwen Loan Servicing regarding they 're servicing of my loan. There was no resolution to the problem. I hired a lawyer ( {$6000.00} ) in XXXX that said I had a strong case against Ocwen and agreed to sue Ocwen on my behalf. In the end for {$6000.00} the only thing he 'd done was to stop the sale of the house temporarily and get another loan modification. Which after the modification trial period wanted me to agree to a {$30000.00} FHA loan and agree not to sue Ocwen. I did not agree. Ocwen kept me in a state of foreclosure since XXXX. Every month in XXXX I kept recieving delinquency notices. I called Ocwen to make sure the money was being received and was told yes it was being recieved. Then in XX/XX/XXXX, I was told I was so for delinquent they would n't take payments any longer. That 's when I contacted CFPB. There was no resolve to the problem at that time and that 's when I hired XXXX XXXX. In XXXX after I 'd not accepted the offer for the modification my home went back on the court docket for sale. I then hired another lawyer, XXXX XXXX, bankrupcy lawyer, to avoid the sale of my house. I am currently under a chapter XXXX bankrupcy in order to save my house. After years of trying to get information regarding what I actually owe on my home I still do n't have any clear document stating what is owed or what all the fees and fines are for and monthly late fees. Nothing! I have entered into this bankrupcy just to save my home. I have spent {$10000.00} to save my home and Ocwen has not been held accountable for any of what they 're responsible for.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This is a separate complaint from XXXX. I was rebilled for a separate transaction dispute that had already been resolved. The complaint made on X/X/17 resulted in a refund ( {$280.00} ), however a different charge ( {$230.00} ) was re-billed to my account without reasoning. On X/XX/17, I filed a complaint with your department ( Complaint ID XXXX ) regarding a charge I was disputing with Capital One. On X/XX/17, Capital One credited my account for the {$280.00} from my complaint, but re-billed me {$230.00}, a charge for a separate unrelated dispute I previously had with them. I contacted them several times regarding this matter. They refused to speak to me regarding either of my disputes and insisted I contact the " executive resolution department, '' however provide no phone number or contact information for me to reach out. The last notice I received regarding this charge was on X/XX/17 requesting additional documentation to continue my dispute. They asked for a sales invoice and a second opinion on company letterhead from another merchant regarding the same matter. Both of which I submitted. Credit was issued and no further information was required of me. Please review documents attached. Thank you.
