Product: Student loan — Non-federal student loan
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer — Having problems with customer service
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have XXXX private loans totaling about $ XXXX with Navient. They used to be with XXXX XXXX, but are now serviced by a company that I believe is fraudulent and inappropriate. Having had loans with XXXX XXXX for nearly 20 years, I have NEVER had any problems and am up-to-date on my payments. This month, I just want to speak with someone to request an adjustment for two months ( I am a XXXX and cash flow is slow right now, so I would like to pay interest only for 2 months ). However, I call their customer service number and am put through to a person trying to sell me coupons. Once I was done with the telling the person I did n't want his deal, he hung up - I was never put through to discuss my loan. I called again and had to go through XXXX different recorded advertisements for " deals '' only to get through listening to everything and it said, " Please hang up now. '' I tried again and received a new phone number to call - XXXX - that was another road to nowhere. Basically, there is no customer service. This company is servicing $ 11K of my private loans with interest, they have access to all of my personal data including my bank accounts, and they appear to be running a scam. I had NO say in who took over my loans from XXXX XXXX - but while XXXX XXXX was n't fabulous, they appeared to be a business with an actually staff and customer service that did there job. Now, I have with absolutely no control over the circumstances been put at the mercy of Navient and have my private information with a company that I do n't feel has the integrity or infrastructure or knowledge to be managing ANYTHING related to my student loans or finances. This is completely and totally ridiculous. If you do not actually have service members to service your customers and you are essentially running " deals '' over the phones to channel your customers to dead ends when they need questions answered, you are likely running some fraudulent enterprise. I do not know what to do, as I do NOT want this company to have any involvement in my personal world and want a company/bank with integrity to service my loans instead. What are my options? 

Thank you, XXXX

Complaint narrative:
After my bankruptcy was discharged, I received written communication from Navient that I had to start my repayment plan would start on XXXX/XXXX/2017. Several days later, I received another letter stating my request for forbearance was approved. I did not request a forbearance and have not been in contact with Navient. I am planning on paying my loan back because I do n't want to accrue any more interest on my loan.

Complaint narrative:
Good afternoon, I would like to let you know about my experiences with Navient. They have coerced me into using forbearance instead of paying the {$5.00} per month as I had attempted to do for the last few years. It was never offered as an option to me. Please contact me if I can help you in the lawsuit you filed. I also am considering a lawyer of my own. If you can kindly recommend one for the city of XXXX, please contact me immediately. 

Best, XXXX

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Bank of America told me they would n't resubmit a check that bounced because I accidentally double paid but then they did resubmit the check and it, of course, bounced again. Their customer service guy, XXXX, said the check would n't be resubmitted but then the next day it was. 

The problem started when I overdrew my account in the first place. That was my fault. When I saw that the payment did n't go through, I submitted it again once I determined our account could cover it. I did n't know, however, that BoA policy is to re-run bounced payments. Thus, they ran the original payment through, which was covered, but my second payment now bounced. Knowing now that the bounced check was going to be run through again, I called BoA to stop that. I talked to XXXX who assured me the check would not be run through again. He practically glossed over my problem and started to ask me if I wanted to refinance my mortgage. I told him I wanted more assurance that my check would not be run again before he sold me anything. He assured me in a very unassuring way, so I asked for a case reference number. He said BoA. did n't have reference numbers but that my account would be noted that I had this conversation. I come to find out today that the check said would not be run again has, in fact, been run again, so now my account is overdrawn. BoA mortgage customer service is closed on weekends, so I ca n't to anybody until Monday. It 's Saturday morning now. I take responsibility for the original {$30.00} bounced check but this second one is BoA 's fault because XXXX was wrong about the payment not running through again. I might be on the hook for more fees because I have pending debit that might be overdrawn depending on how quickly BoA credits back my account on the second mortgage payment that XXXX said would be stopped. It was aggravating how he seemed to be more focused on selling me a product instead of providing customer service.

Issue: Getting a loan — Can't qualify for a loan
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Navient has places XXXX individual items on my credit report and will not provide the information that is being requested of them in order to validate the loans and confirm the information within. In addition to not providing the appropriate documentation and also reporting to XXXX and XXXX that I have had late payments within the last 12 months. My credit reports also states that navient has managed my account since the inception of the alleged loans which is also inaccurate. Navient has been unwilling to work with me in relation to the matter but has stated that my requests are frivolous in nature. Navient has violated the XXXXFDCPA and FCRA. I have asked on numerous occasions for a validation of debt and somehow they are able to validate the debt with XXXX and XXXX but not me. All communications have been sent via registered mail and I have pointed out each violation, but yet while under investigation, they still report which is another violation. Navient is not compliant to do business within the state of TEXAS and at this point lawfully has no right to report anything on consumer credit reports. Navient is indeed a 3rd party debt collector and has not filed with the state of TEXAS nor do they have a BOND issued by a accredited bonding company. In addition to the items provided above, they have also not been able to provide the wet ink signature for the contract that I have within the company which is an additional violation. Due to the negative derogatory item on my credit report I have been turned down for loans and business opportunities due to the derogatory items that they have placed on my credit report. I request to see the verifiable, valid proof ( an original contract with wet-ink signature on it, copies are not validations ad by law are not considered proof ) I would like for navient to remove each XXXX items from my report based on the information provided above. I also seek damages for the issues and hardships they have caused me for suppressing my credit scores in an effort to get payments from consumers.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint narrative:
On or about XXXX XXXX, 2015, I received a call from someone identifying himself as being from the Bank of America fraud investigation department, inquiring about some " suspicious '' charges to my account. He asked if I had used my debit card in California or knew anyone there, or if anyone else had access to my banking credentials. I told him that I did n't know anyone in California and did n't believe anyone had access to my account, but that it was possible my father did XXXX I later confirmed that he did not ). I then clarified to say my father had my account and routing number to facilitate transfers into my account. He said there were some suspicious charges on my account and that he " did n't like my answers '' and because of that, he was immediately closing my account. When I asked why, he replied " I do n't have to give you a reason ''. That was it. 
On XXXX XXXX, I went to the local BoA branch to try to find out what happened. They printed out a list of all of my activity from the previous three months. I noted that there were XXXX transactions in the amount of either {$1.00} or {$1.00}, all occurring on XXXX XXXX. They were all clearly marked as " XXXX '' and showed a billing address in California. I did in fact make those donations to a XXXX broadcaster that I follow during one of their live feeds. Obviously, those were the transactions that their investigator was calling about, but he never mentioned XXXX or the amounts and since I did not know that XXXX was located in California, I did not make the connection. 
I also learned during my visit to the branch on the XXXX that my account was flagged in such a way that I was not allowed to open another account at Bank of America and I have since learned that his report could prevent me from opening accounts at ANY bank. 
I did nothing wrong or even suspicious. I was called out of the blue, awoken by one of BoA 's inadequately trained investigators asking vague questions, who made a snap and incorrect judgment. I was then told that he did not have to give his reasons or any justification at all for his decision.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am the borrower. I sent forms to Navient to update the bank account for monthly automatic draft payment from my bank, for XXXX different loan payments. I received a generic confirmation by mail that did n't show the date the payment would be drafted or much other information. Navient set up XXXX of the XXXX payments so that it would be drafted after the due date and they could charge me a late fee. The first month after the account was updated, I noticed the payment was n't drafted from my bank account so I logged into the Navient website to check on it. The Navient site confirms that the loan payment is set up for automatic payment which they call " Auto Pay. '' The payment was marked " Pending '' on the website. I have printouts of this from the website. There was no indication what day the automatic payment would be drafted from my bank. I immediately paid again by using Navient 's website to pull another draft from my bank, but Navient charged me a " late '' fee for that month and then drafted BOTH payments from my bank account. Navient has n't given me the option on how to apply the extra payment. Navient intentionally set up the automatic draft so that it would draft after the due date and they could scam a late fee from me. The payment that Navient decided to draft on time was the Federal consolidation loans. The payment that Navient decided to draft late was the private business education loan. Navient set up the call-in help line so that it is almost impossible to reach a person. Navient 's number disconnects callers after they have been going through the menus for minutes. If the caller ca n't find an option that describes their situation the call disconnects. If the caller takes too long ( per Navient ) the call disconnects. If the caller calls after work the call disconnects, because Navient closes the line outside daytime weekdays. Navient has done everything they can, short of disconnecting their phone altogether, to add on illegal fees and avoid talking to borrowers and avoid making corrections.
