Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email saying, Thank You for your payment of {$1400.00} for acct # XXXX. ( this is not my acct # ) I immediately logged into my acct # XXXX, and changed my password and deleted the pending payment from my bank acct. I kept an eye on both accts to make sure it did not go thru. then I get an email saying my new card has shipped, and I was charged {$16.00} for it. then I noticed my account has been " restricted ''. I then called Capital One Customer Service she was of no help, she just kept telling me I need to call their fraud dept. and she gave me another number to call for their fraud department. They too, were of no help. he refused to tell me anything except that there is some fraud activity and they are sending me a new card. I said I have the right to know what is going on and I should not be charged for a new card. and he just kept saying there is fraudulent activity on my acct. to this day, XX/XX/XXXX, I still do not have any new card and I am still making online payments but it is to acct # XXXX, not the card I have in my wallet # XXXX. I am asking for help in this matter. I am making my payments to an account that I do not have a card for. they changed my account # without my permission. I don't know how to fix this. I also need a credit of {$16.00} to my acct and remove the restriction from it with an explanation of what kind of fraud activity they found.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My complaint is with PayPal Credit, which opened an account in my name, some time in the mid to late part of XX/XX/XXXX, although I had never requested an account.

I pay for purchases on XXXX  by using my plain Paypal account ( which is identified by my email address ), and that Paypal account is linked directly to my XXXX credit card. I never asked for a PayPal Credit account, since my payments are made directly through my XXXX card. 
When I began getting emails and statements in the mail and continuous phone calls, I spoke to a representative there ( around XX/XX/XXXX ) told him that I never opened an account at PayPal Credit - that he should send me proof that I had requested an account ; he said he would mail me this 'proof ' but it was never sent ( because such proof does not exist ). I do not have his name. I did receive an email confirmation of my request for proof, that stated " We've received the document copy request regarding your PayPal Credit account. Once our research is complete, you'll receive an email notification. '' Now I continue to get phone calls, emails, and statements in the mail, in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX showing that I owe hundreds of dollars in late fees/interest. I want these to cease. If they could show me any legitimate proof that I opened an account, I would pay. 
According to the report in XXXX XXXX ( at XXXX XXXX   XXXX XXXX ), with a consent decree ( see XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) PayPal Credit is under orders from the U S District Court for the District of Maryland ( In re XXXX XXXX XXXX. , No. XXXX, civil action XXXX Settlement agreement ), to halt such actions ( opening false accounts ). I have heard that until the end of XX/XX/XXXX, when a customer was checking out from an XXXX  purchase to make a choice of payment method, that clicking on just PayPal got CHANGED to PayPal Credit by them, which was definitely in violation of the US District Court Settlement agreement. 
I have attached the " statements '' from PayPal Credit, which, to make matters worse, are in the name of my wife, XXXX XXXX ( who has not had an XXXX account for ten years! ). Nevertheless, the phone calls come to my cell phone, and emails come to my email address.

Company: FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
After not getting anywhere and becoming very stressed out with my business dealings through a company by the name of XXXX XXXX because the venture I had invested in was not going the way they promised. 

So, after many persistent calls I decided to listen to XXXX XXXX at XXXX, she demonstrated to me what their website creation could do for my business, What they showed me was not only more sophisticated and user friendly but nicer looking than mine. They said all the right things to get me to pay them to build me a better website and promised they were on the up and up and I would make money in 2-4 weeks and help put me in the right track to recover what I had lost with the other companies. 

Now 3 months later, I still have no working website and of course no money. I have seriously been taken advantage of and lied to by yet again by another internet online fraud. 

I would like your assistance in getting my money refunded. 

Thank you.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Starting XX/XX/XXXX, Navient raised my monthly payment from {$120.00} to {$520.00}, and they will not give me any reason why this happened. 

I requested to receive monthly statements mailed to my address each month, starting XX/XX/XXXX. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to receive anything in the mail. When I called customer service to inquire why I have not received anything, I was told that I was sent a coupon book in XX/XX/XXXX. First, I've never heard of a coupon book before. I never signed up for that, never received it, nor did I want that. Customer service said they sent it, but they did not. Then on the same call they said that they sent a monthly statement on XX/XX/XXXX, for a bill that is due on XX/XX/XXXX. How can they send a bill 2 business days before it is due? It seems that they want me to be late on this bill since I won't get the statement until after the due date. 

They keep giving me the run-around. One person tells me one thing, then the next contradicts that statement. They raised my monthly payment amount without telling me, and will not tell me why. They also changed my monthly due date without telling me. I did not ask for a new due date! For the last 10 years it has been on the same date, and then for XX/XX/XXXX they changed it without telling me ; so then my payment was late since I paid it on the day that has been in place for 10 years. 

I feel hopeless and that I will never be able to actually pay these loans off.

Company: Monterey Financial Services LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In 2015 I attempted to purchase a Time Share from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX. My husband and I traded in our time share to XXXX XXXX for a XXXX trade in price. I started to get bills from our ( thought traded time share XXXX XXXX ) we found the time share had not been in fact purchased By XXXX XXXX and that we still owned the one we thought we traded. We were told the developer at XXXX XXXX was not able to purchase our time share because of inventory issues. Shortly after we stopped paying maintenance fees on the new time share because we don't own it. I received a call from from Monterey Financial a collection company in California ( who has assumed our debt ) telling us that we did not have an agreement for a trade and that we owe for both time shares. Monterey is in California and XXXX XXXX is in XXXX. Out attorney sent Monterey and XXXX XXXX a cease and desist letter. We then had our attorney file on our behalf a letter asking XXXX XXXX to remove it from my credit report since we were in litigation. I submitted three disputes and they came back with a response that the collection " had been verified '' I attempted to submit a letter to the credit bureau and it will not allow me to dispute the issue as it states I have submitted a dispute in 120 time frame. I explained to XXXX XXXX it is severely damaging my credit. They refuse to remove it. Monterey Financial only called me once and immediately put me in collections. Their practices are unlawful and I reserve the right a consumer to have fair reporting. They are not reporting it honestly, it affected my car rate and it is affecting my credit reporting score.
