Company: EdFinancial Services
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On Monday, XX/XX/XXXX EdFinancial services received two cashier 's checks from me. Check No. XXXX for {$3800.00} and Check XXXX for {$8600.00}. These checks were cashed on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted them on XX/XX/XXXX to verify they received the payment as it had not been applied to my account yet. The person I spoke with ( XXXX ) told me to upload the copies of the checks at my account on their website and he stated he opened an incident ticket. He told me it should be resoled within 3 business days. I called back on XXXX to follow up and was told ( missed the name ) that it would take 60 days for them to post the payment to my account. I was also told that XXXX misinformed me when he told me 3 days. The COVID emergency forbearance expires on XX/XX/XXXX. It is my belief that they are delaying posting the payment because they intend to post it after XX/XX/XXXX and proceed to apply excessive charges, fees, etc.. to the my account and force me to pay more. My account # is XXXX.
