Company: Kohn Law Firm S.C.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Hi my name is XXXX XXXX, I am seeking advice in regards to a judgement that has been placed against me by XXXX XXXX XXXX. The case has been turned over to Kohns law firm. I was not aware of this judgement until recently when I checked my credit and reached out to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX to inquire about the collection and was told it was on a legal hold. I was never sent a letter or any other notice or phone call stating this was going on or given opportunity to take care of the problem before it got to this point of a lawsuit. I have reached out to the law firm and was told they had a court date coming up in XXXX but they will not give me the date or any other information.I have not been served anything in regards to the matter. When I call I feel they are only trying to collect information against me and not allowing me to rectify the situation. At this point I am unsure of what measures I can take and can not afford anyone to garnish my wages.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
In the past and before I become a permanent resident in US, I was told by PayPal to create a specific account dedicated to the US transactions, payments and credit cards. I therefore created this separated account as directed by the PayPal Support and while I was updating my mobile phone data, address, banking details etc. I received yesterday a messages saying " After a review, we decided to permanently limit your account as we found potential risk associated with it. '' There is neither an offered way to dispute the decision nor there is any transparent explanation justifying such decision. My account is new, there is no transaction and as such the criteria for such decision are only based on personal information and/or other data collected through credit card emitters and their XXXX. This very adverse decision represent an real unfair eviction, and privation of access to a mainstream payment facility as PayPal is widely used at many online vendors but also more and more physical point of sales. In addition, not disclosing the reason of such decision forbid resolving errors or data misinterpretations in systems leading to unfair treatment.
