Issue: Electronic communications — Frequent or repeated messages
Company: Lendmark Financial Services
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a complaint a couple of days ago due to the number of calls that were being made to me during the week ... after this complaint I set up a payment arrangement and have it scheduled to be directly withdrawn on XX/XX/ in which my account will be due for 34 days. The very next day I received I phone call from the company from the company line, and 3 hours later I got another call from a cell phone number that is registered to an employee with their company. I have a payment set up and there is no reason for them to harass me to this point.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
Received an email today from someone/company XXXX XXXX saying a credit card application with them had been received. 
I did NOT apply for any credit. 

I called their tel number, XXXX and their voice prompts kept asking for the last 4 digits of my Social Security number! I think this was a scam to get me to divulge! 

I can forward the original email from them to you right away. 

There have been other recent attempts to open other credit accounts, so I think I am a victim of ID Fraud. 

Please help if you can.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I applied for the SAVE plan at the end of XXXX. Nelnet has been processing the application since then. They have taken so long that I am now forced to make payments I wouldn't have to make under the SAVE plan, and I am being charged interest that I would not be charged under the SAVE plan. 

Nelnet failed to notify me via email or letter that they require a {$5.00} mandatory payment to switch my student loans from IDR to the SAVE plan. Nelnet has not communicated anything to me regarding the status of my application the entire time it has been processing.

I waited three hours on hold to talk to an agent today who just told me that they forgot to send the email and that he would request they send it to me. I need a special link in the email in order to pay the {$5.00} so I can be put on the SAVE plan. Nelnet will not accept this payment over the phone and there is no way to do it over their website. Consumers need the special link, which is in the email that they don't send out. So my bank account continues to be held hostage while they take weeks upon weeks to process my application, and then fail to notify me when they need something despite my online account telling me to " refer to the letter or email we sent you ''. There is no letter, there is no email. It was never sent. How am I supposed to respond to something that they never sent? 

The only way to contact Nelnet is via phone, because they do not respond to emails. If you want to talk to an agent, you have to wait three to four hours. People have to literally take time off of work and lose money just to talk to an agent about the accounts that Nelnet messed up in the first place.

Portfolio recovery sold this account number on XX/XX/2018 even though they sold this account number they are currently after 5 years reporting to my credit report as if they are still in ownership of this account number. Ive reached out to them multiple times to delete this inaccurate and unfair reporting from my credit report and they have failed to do so. Ive contacted them through Cfpb already and nothing has been done. They are admitting to selling the debt but its still reflects on my report inaccurately. I ask that this account be deleted immediately due to unfair inaccurate and misuse of credit reporting. Which is a violation of my rights as a consumer.

This is negatively affecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately.
