Issue: Money was not available when promised — 
Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Hello, This is in regards to XXXX. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I received an incoming bitcoin transfer in the amount of XXXX in bitcoins. 

Within an hour the money should have become available to me because there were over XXXX confirmations. The transaction was still " pending '' in my account which means I have no access to it. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I opened a case and asked them what 's going on. I did n't hear anything. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I asked again what 's going on. Within 3 minutes I get a response back about network congestion and transaction fees which is not related to my issue. It seems like just a cut and paste reply. 

I reply a few hours later explaining this is not what is wrong in my case and provided them with details of my transaction and why I am sure it is something on their end. 

I hear nothing. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I write to them again asking for an update and explaining that this is something on their end. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I ask them again to please correct this error. I also try calling their customer support number but it tells me they are too busy and it hangs up on me. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I call the customer service number again and this time XXXX press 1XXXX which is an option to press if you think your account is hacked. This gets me through to someone after some time on hold. 

Customer service looks into my issue and agrees there is something wrong and they said they made a new case for me to the payments department and put the priority to 10. They said my old case was a priority 1 since it was in the general pool of cases. 

I see the new case has been opened in my account. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I reply to my old case telling them I 'm still waiting. I get another cut and paste reply about high traffic and website outages which again, is not related to my case. This reply was also dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for some reason but is listed after my XXXX/XXXX/XXXX message to them. 

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - I reply to my new case asking if there are any updates.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX,2017 CFPB had sent me a response from XXXX XXXX AKA XXXX XXXX about the discrepencies in the application of payments on this loan, have paid 27 payments on a loan at 13.9 percent interest, totaling XXXX monthly payments XXXX I got behind and then made a lump sum payment to company. The representative sent a ledger of in consistent applying of payments to my loan. They can never give a clear answer or audit the loan by reapplying each payment to clearly adjust the balance, In good faith after I filed my last complain a person from the company responded to you, they stated in this document they would adjust good faith XXXX off the loan balance which they did not do, they further were to do a deferrment and bring the account current so I could resume the loan, after you posted the response I waited to here from the company. I never received any communication directly and when I tried to call the person who replied to the complaint I was transferred to collections demanding lump sums of money or they were charging off the loan and repossessing the vehicle, as of date I have tried to get this loan resolved and no one is working with me. I feel I am going to be forced into legal action to protect my rights, and have this company forced into a repayment plan with me.

Dear company on XXXX XXXX, 2017 I noticed that a recent inquiry from your company was placed on my credit file. I received several alerts in my email showing me the inquiries and what companies.

Company: FRANKLIN AMERICAN MORTGAGE CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX XXXX a vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed lost control and crashed into my families primary residence causing catastrophic damaged. We have been going back and forth with out insurance company on the actual scope of repairs which is a complain of its own but not the one I 'm trying to currently address, my issue lies with my Mortgage company, Franklin American Mortgage XXXX XXXX. Upon receiving a partial payment from the insurance company, I sent in the check in total ( {$78000.00} ) to my mortage company to be put into escrow as was requested by both my insurance and mortgage company which was deposited by them into escrow on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Here is where my problem arose, the initial payment made by the insurance company was only a fraction of what I was quoted by 10 different independent contractors which were anywhere between XXXX at the lowest to XXXX at the highest to repair my home. Looking at all my options and getting rejected by every single contractor to take this job on for the amount provided by my insurance company to repair my home I realized I had no other option but to repair my home as a owner builder as permitted by both my county, city and California " business and professions code 7044 ''. Having years of building, plumbing and electrical experience behind my belt made this the only logical decision for my family and I, it is not something I wanted to do but unfortunately its only option and my only way to insure that my family gets back home. 

-On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I submitted my XXXX followed by a Letter of request on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX as was requested by XXXX a subsidiary of Franklin American Mortgage to disperse the insurance funds for the repairs to me to start the repairs -I never received any phone calls back but when I called back again 2 weeks later they told me my request has been denied and for my to hire a contractor to start receiving the funds, I explained my situation and again was shut down XXXX I submitted a insurance adjusters worksheet again this was n't enough and they declined to release any partial payments to start the repairs XXXX I submitted a new letter of request siting the California " owner builder law and section code '', my engineers floor plans/blue prints, as well as my already approved City permits from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX repair my house as a Owner/Builder again i was strung on for weeks just to be denied without any just cause or them being to provide me with any legal documents entitling them to deny my requests. 

As of today it has been over 3 months of me loosing precious time to be able to get my family back home and I am truly believe that both Franklin American Mortgage XXXX and insuranceclaimcheck are both acting and Bad faith of the LAW and unlawfully withholding money needed to begin the repairs.

Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My Mortgage servicer is LoanCare , LLC which is part of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The Mortgage Payment is due every XX/XX/XXXX of the month and late after the XX/XX/XXXX of that same month. I have not been late since LoanCare was assigned to me by XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. But since then I have notice some anomalies in the activity of my escrow account that lean toward making it difficult to pay on time and bring up my credit score because of on-time payments. In XX/XX/XXXX there were funds moved in and out of the account for nothing on the surface. But when you look at it closer, the movement exhaust the escrow causing an advancement from the mortgage company, therefore increasing the balance of the account to drive down the credit score. This allows all attempts to get a better loan to fail because your score is just below the approval line. 

In XX/XX/XXXX the Escrow Account was drafted in XX/XX/XXXX when it did not need to be drafted till XX/XX/XXXX for Tax bill due. But LoanCare chose to do it early because they could cause a temporary advancement to drive down the credit score. Payments in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX would of been sufficient to pay ALL of the taxes outstanding before the XX/XX/XXXX Due date. 

Also I pay all my Mortgage payment online through my own checking account XXXX XXXX XXXX. This way I can keep a meticulous record when the bill is paid. Also the payment is drafted electronically in 24 hours. But I have noticed that though the account is funded, LoanCare does not credit the account for 3 to 4 days. LoanCare does not have a local branch in the XXXX area and all Online payments through their site cost a fee. 

This account is intentionally made difficult and expensive to cause defaults and foreclosures to struggling homeowners. I have attached copies of proof of the above statements. If you have any questions I can be reached at XXXXXXXXXXXX. Though I have filed a complaint with my Mortgage Servicer I do not expect them to change their behavior. I will be passing on to the press this information too.
