Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Revolving Citibank credit account in good standing was terminated by XXXX in error in XX/XX/2020. At that time I filed a dispute against the existing balance, as I had paid it off completely and it had not been reported. Instead XXXX deleted it and I discovered the error about 2 weeks later when my credit dropped 24 points and pointed out the  mistake. However, XXXX refuses to correct the error or contact Citi. Citi says they are reporting the account as active but refuses to contact XXXX to clear it up.

My intrest rate is now 66 %! I would have never signed up or a loan at that APR. The terms are changing on my loan without notification. Harassing phone calls. I have paid over {$1000.00} on this loan and only about {$200.00} going towards pay off. Deceptive marketing. Predatory lending.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2019 I cancelled a transaction on Paypal and authorized a refund. On the same day, Paypal received {$580.00} from me. All of this is confirmed in Paypal 's own records. Paypal never sent the refund, and kept the money instead. I have spent more than a year trying to get Paypal to deal with this. I have spent over a year with Paypal stalling, ignoring, insulting and lying to me. They always claim ignorance and claim they can't find anything in the records about it, until I show them Paypal 's own records which confirm everything I have said. Then the wild lies start. They claim a wide variety of conflicting things, including a claim that Paypal actually has " secret '' records which are the true records, and the records provided to the customers are all false. My personal favorite lie was when the Paypal representative said they hadn't sent the refund because the person to receive the refund has " insufficient funds '' in his account ... huh? How much does he have to have in his account to receive money from me?? And the representative still didn't seem to think Paypal would need to return the money to me in that case. The point is : Paypal will take your money, and keep it. And then refuse to return it ... no matter how much proof there is.

Consumer complaint received 2020-07-10 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: TCF NATIONAL BANK
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I have/had a Home Equity line from Chemical Bank loan number XXXX. I received my Statement from Chemical Bank for XXXX and it showed the total balance due. The loan is current. I called the number on the Statement on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that a letter was sent to me in XXXX informing me that they were closing the loan in XXXX and I should seek alternate financing. I called a mortgage broker I know and he ran a credit report. I had some late payments on my primary mortgage and he told me that until I make 12 consecutive on-time payments no other bank would consider refinancing. 

So I called Chemical Bank back and they referred me to the loan department. I was informed that had I called earlier they could have done something but the loan is closed. I explained that had I gotten their letter I would have contacted them immediately. Furthermore, there was nothing indicating timeout on my monthly statements, no one called me and I did not receive a registered or certified notice. They told me there was nothing they could do and referred me to collections. I called collections and spoke to XXXX XXXX Option 1. XXXX checked to see if there were any options. She called the next day and told me there were none. I could refinance or sell my house. I explained why I couldn't refinance. I told her I am perfectly capable of paying principal and interest for a year until I was eligible to refinance. She told me I couldn't do that and I should sell my house. I said I am a senior citizen recovering from XXXX, on XXXX, and you want me to sell my house because you sent a letter and I didn't get it? She said how could you not have gotten the letter? 

I said I have spoken to three departments, none of which can help me, and I obviously need to speak to someone higher up in the bank. She tried to get her supervisor on the phone but he was not available. She asked if I wanted to file a complaint and I said yes. She told me someone would call me back. It is XX/XX/XXXX and no one has. 

I called collections back the following day, spoke to XXXX and asked for a copy of the letter they claim they sent back in XXXX. I still have not received it. 

I am concerned that they will put my loan in default, ruin my credit, and ensure that I can't refinance, which is what I need to do to solve the problem. I could understand if I wasn't current on my payments, or couldn't pay principal and interest but I am current and offered to pay principal and interest. I can't believe all this grief because I didn't receive a snail mail letter. And finally I am concerned they could foreclose on my house.

Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
USAA offered a balance transfer of 1.9 APR on all transfers. I obliged and requested a XXXX transfer to be paid to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which is serviced by a company called XXXX XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX, upon receiving the check, incorrectly routed the check to XXXX ( I am not a customer of theirs ), who services XXXX XXXX lines of credit. 

This check was issued on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX ( who I am not a customer of but obviously has some affiliation with USAA ) on my behalf for the XXXX amount ( I have proof of the check and that it was cashed by XXXX ) I then spend the next 3 months arguing with all parties above on how to get the balance transfer back from XXXX to XXXX while all of them claim to have no wrongdoings or mistakes in the process. After 3 months of arguing with customer service reps I wrote an email to the CEO of XXXX. 

That led to a phone call by their executive response team who has been able to apparently track the money down and they are now reissuing the funds back to XXXX XXXX. 

But now I have no affiliation with XXXX XXXX and no way of getting that money back from them. 

USAA claims to have no affiliation with XXXX XXXX DESPITE using a check from XXXX XXXX as proof they carried out the balance transfer. 

They are not helping me to reclaim the money from XXXX XXXX now. 

If that isnt a textbook definition of fraud I dont know what is.
