Consumer complaint received 2017-11-09 00:00:00
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I went to a USAA ATM to withdraw money from my USAA checking account. My USAA ATM card and my USAA credit card look almost identical. I accidentally put my credit card in the ATM instead of my ATM card. I proceeded with the withdrawal and at no time did the ATM indicate that I was using a credit card or that I was taking a cash advance. The screen asked how much I wanted to withdraw and my receipt says withdrawal. I did not know that I had made a cash advance until later that night when I was reviewing transactions. I called USAA the next day, but there was nothing that they could do because the transaction had not posted yet. The following day, I paid the money back that I had withdrawn and I called USAA. The 2 people that I talked to said that they would not refund the fee and interest and that it was my fault that I put my credit card in the ATM. I believe that there are several instances of deceptive business practices in this case. 1. The cards look almost identical. 2. The ATM did not tell me which account I was using. 3. The ATM told me that I was making a withdrawal not a cash advance. 4. The ATM did not tell me that I was going to incur any fees. 5. The receipt told me that I had made a withdrawal not a cash advance. 6. There were no fees listed on the receipt. 7. USAA did not allow me to reverse the transaction even though I notified them right away when I realized the mistake. I believe that this could have been prevented if USAA had been more open about the transaction while it was happening. It also could have been resolved easily by the company, but unfortunately their representatives just did n't care. This is actually the first time that I have had a less than awesome experience with USAA customer service.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Since XX/XX/XXXX. I 've been trying to get a problem with a credit that was n't posted to my account correctly for a promotional offer, to get posted correctly so it would n't show on my statement that I owe money on a deadline that I do n't actually owe. I had it corrected before because XXXX did n't post it correctly. XXXX did and it was a cinch. This time XXXX made exactly the same error but XXXX did n't get it fixed. Instead they sent form letters with generic info in it and that was the end of it. They kept telling me with each call that it would be fixed, apologized too many times, told me they take these matters seriously but still have n't fixed the problem! The amount is above {$500.00} and neither XXXX nor XXXX can get something so simple taken care of. Please see all attached. I 'm tired of calling them spending hours of my Saturday 's on the phone with them to hear the same old same old only to receive a form letter telling me they do n't know what I 'm talking about. It 's become ridiculous and expresses horrific customer service on their part.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I signed and agreed to be on a repayment plan with Navient. We went over all the amounts and what the payment amounts were going to be. I was paying for several months and then I got an alert about negative reporting on my credit bureau. 
Furthermore, I was making the payments every month for the amount we agreed upon which was XXXX per month. I continued to pay this and they were reporting all of my student loan accounts as 90+ days delinquent. This caused my credit score to drop to XXXX. I had credit cards closed and credit limits lowered because of this. My wife and I were in the process of trying to purchase our first house but this has put a hault on our plans. The payment plan started on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted Navient about this situation on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and had to speak with the collection department. They informed me that it was my responsability to make sure everything was up to date. I advised her that I was under the impression that I was on a payment plan and Navient was automatically taking the money out of my account each month. Not once did they contact me and say that the payment terms that I agreed to were not correct and that my accounts were past due. Navient continued to take my payments each month and still report my accounts past due to the credit bureau. I do not feel this is right because I agreed to a payment amount and set up automatic payments and I was still being reported as past due and I would not have known unless I got an alert about my credit. 
Navient called me on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and left a voicemail on my phone which I have saved. The Navient representatives 's name was XXXX and he was from the office of credit collections department. He admitted that Navient made a Mistake and that they were working on fixing the promlem. The problem has not been fixed since then and I have not recieved another phone call from them to update me about this situation. This situation put me in a bad position and was one of the determining factors that made me decide to file bankruptcy because Navient had such a negative impact on my credit that I would not have been able to get everything back on track. I hate that this happened and just want to see what my options are because the majority of my student loans are with Navient and they ruined my credit after I worked so hard to get it to an acceptable level. I have also been being charged for late fees from over a year ago and I always set up payments with Navient. So this is starting to get ridiculous.

The settlement was being paid on timely manner and Collections agent, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, did not honor and worse kept additional funds not properly adjusted form balances and agreement. 

According to settlement agreement payments where to be received in a timely manner which they were sent and post marked correctly. Nowhere in the settlement letter it states that funds had to clear by the date provided but sent in timely manner which they did revive as such and deposited. 

This collector is in violation of FDCPA by collecting and already provided and being paid for agreement and also not accounting for all funds. 

I have provided settlement documentation and payments effected which clearly reflect that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to complete settlement and the collector simply voided settlement without regards for my compliance and payments effected in timely manner

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: AK

Complaint narrative:
Bank Of America increased my interest rate on my credit card from 10.24 % to 11.24 % during my last billing cycle with no notification to me as the consumer of a rate increase. This account has been open and in good standing for over 7 years with no change in interest rate or credit limits until this last billing cycle. During attempts to resolve with Bank of America they confirmed that no correspondence was sent to me as required by federal law to notify the consumer within 45 days of any rate changes. Despite Bank of America 's admittance that no notification was given prior to increasing the interest rate, they continued to refuse any resolution.

Company: National Check Resolution Inc.

Complaint narrative:
National Check Resolution Inc . 
XXXX XXXX XXXX had represented in XXXX XXXX that they were a sovereign entity ( XXXX lender ) wholly owned and operated by the XXXX XXXX XXXX of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The impression is that the company is licensed to do business in states where they have no license, as they are not subject to the state laws. This was sent to Washington XXXX which returned a decision that only the original {$1000.00} needed to be repaid, no fees or interest. Contact from National Check Resolution started XXXX XXXX, XXXX. With 2 calls : home ; XXXX am and Cell ; XXXX am. XXXX XXXX, XXXX 2 more calls : Home ; XXXX am and Cell ; XXXX am. XXXX XXXX, XXXX another call home ; XXXX XXXX. That is 5 calls in 3 days. They are claiming that the loan is valid, and have stated that, " the client has stated that you still do not respond to several notices that were sent to your residence. The file has been forwarded to our office for final recommendation prior to being processed on ( First was XXXX, Second was XXXX ). You do have a legal right to resolve your case. If you choose, yourself or your attorney can contact our claimants office at XXXX. '' On this I am not sure as to what the processing would be, and the second is that the records, if indeed a case might be, are not kept properly. This to me appears a scam as to the two different days as well as the threat of processing. Also to note, the last notice regarding anything on this was from Washington State XXXX as to XXXX XXXX not having a valid license in Washington State, and the amount to be repaid could not exceed the {$1000.00}. So as no notices, and the fact of the different dates, I do believe this may be a Phantom Collection. 
I have verbally told them not to call again until I get the Validation letter in the US Mail. They in return told me they would call back XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ).

Complaint narrative:
This is my final chance giving you the opportunity to remove this debt off my credit. There is not debt that I owe. You are the company that is reporting this debt on my credit not the original creditor, so therefore it is your responsibility to remove the debt if you can not validate the debt. You have not provided the contract showing that you are representing the company to have jurisdiction to put anything on my credit. I have NOT signed a contract with you what so ever! The company that you are stating that i owe has not reported anything on my credit, and unless you have jurisdiction to do so and can prove that I owe this debt, you cant either. Again, your final warning or you will be sued!

I have some savings left and made Ditech a settlement offer for approximately {$10000.00} less than what i owed. They treated it like a Short Sale and buried me in paper work, kept telling me I did n't send them my signed XX/XX/XXXX tax return. I sent it 3 times. They told me they never received it. After months of going back and forth, they denied to have the underwriter look at it. I dealt with numerous employees at Ditech none were cooperative or helpful. XXXX XXXX their Manager told me he had sent the papers in at one point. Lies, Delays and denial. I told them all this was not a Short Sale it was a settlement offer. I 've been in this home 22 years. I never missed a payment. I just wanted the debt off my back while I 'm healing. Recently I cancelled my escow, They sent me a letter telling me I needed to pay my taxes so I did. They sent the taxes as well. Now I have {$3100.00} tied up in their escrow trap and they are delaying sending the check. They said they wired it to The XXXX XXXX XXXX. The treasurer told me they never got it and that they would not get involved. I am so sick of this company and their customer service. I do n't need the extra stress in my life after my accident. Can you please help? I have since paid off my mortgage, but I ca n't get anyone to help me get my escrow money back. Thanks XXXX XXXX XXXX Ditech customer # XXXX
