Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
The entire series of events is completely bizarre. First I was informed by my parents that a representative from Wells Fargo called their home requesting personal information about my account including my email. I immediately called Wells Fargo to confirm if they had in fact made this call because it was suspicious, as only my personal cell phone is on my account. Once they confirmed that it was a phishing scam, and no such call was made by their reps I was told my account was fine. About 1 hour later I received an email on X/X/2017 stating my account was being closed and that I would not receive the funds in the account until XXXX. The entire series of events was absurd and confusing because I had used the card earlier that day, and spoken with Wells Fargo in regards to the phishing scam. I now have no access to my funds and I currently have no other bank accounts. All of my money is in Wells Fargo and they are holding my money hostage. No reason was given for closing the account, it was stated that they were ending the business relationship. I would like access to my funds immediately and Wells Fargo to be held accountable.

Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was in the process of getting a VA refinance on X/X/2017 to pay off bills that my wife and I have accumulated and I attempted to find out the true amount and negotiate to pay off in cash a lower amount than stated. Either the collection company Transworld Systems Inc. or the XXXX XXXX, has already garnished two IRS checks and has not given us credit for this amount it has garnished after repeated attempts to get a bill or statement stating what the true amount that is rightfully owed after the garnishments. Even though I tried to negotiate a payment for the true full amount because of this fact, they would not. The amounts supposedly owed to them have gone up by thousands of dollars each month. These are loan sharking tactics. When I called the company that I owed money to, they gave me a lower amount owed but when I contacted the collection company they are asking for XXXX or more dollars over what I actually owe. Trying just to talk to the collections company was an ordeal in itself. They referred me to different departments and in the end after trying to negotiate with a person named XXXX XXXX, he gave a number to call which was the same number that I first called, and wanted me to contact someone else using the same telephone number.

I am trying to pay off my debts as much as I can. During the recession I have lost my job did not have any funds to pay off the credit card. Now that I work, I support XXXX small children and my wife, who attends college. She does not work. I want to repay the debt, but the debt collection agency added more amount on top of what I owed. They demand more than 13 thousand dollars when the original debt was less than 9 thousand. I contacted the agency to try to settle with them because I can not repay them the whole  amount. They refused and demanded the whole amount. All this years they have not send me any letters or anything indicating that they want to settle and place this matter behind us. I want to make a complaint against this company that they do not want to work with me to settle and that they demand more than what I originally owed.

Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I took out a loan with santander consumer USA a on XX/XX/XXXX. I made the 1st payment when due in XX/XX/XXXX and then I made the next payment that was actually credited on XX/XX/XXXX for the XX/XX/XXXX payment. I made another payment on XX/XX/XXXX which came out of my bank on the XX/XX/XXXX and one of these is the payments in question not credited properly. I then made a payment on XX/XX/XXXX that I thought was the XX/XX/XXXX payment not knowing that santander had lost the XX/XX/XXXX payment. So my XX/XX/XXXX payment went backwards to the XX/XX/XXXX payment. I then started to make a payment for XX/XX/XXXX and it took 2 weeks to get paid but it was paid and yet santander lost this payment also. They reported me to the credit bureaus 30 days late and then 60 days late. I have been fighting with them sending bank statements and santander always had a complaint about the statement sent whether it was elegible Or not sufficient. I have dealt with several managers and even the office of the president in their lack of communication with me is appalling because it 's my credit that 's hurt over XXXX points and they still have not properly credited me. I then spoke with their fraud area and investigations and they said things that were not true and so I invoked my attorney to send them a letter demanding that they credit my account properly and fix the credit-reporting. I submitted them to sworn bank statements from the 2 different banks from which those payments came from in XX/XX/XXXX and in XX/XX/XXXX. They have not responded to me in over a week. At this point I do n't want my credit hurt any longer and I do n't wan na pay monies backwards 2 and a 1/2 months especially when 2 payments are out there that I did pay. They do not correspond timely and yet they continually report me wrongly. Ask them why they are not correcting my account when they had sworn bank statements proving that they are wrong and yet they 're still trying to blame me.
