Company: MOHELA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have been working in the non profit art and education industry for the past 14 years. When I first graduated from college, I was told that I could not sign up for PSLF because I did not work full time at ONE non profit. I continuously worked " part time '' for multiple non profits being much more than 30 hours a week between the two employers. Whenever I would check with FedLoan, I would be told that I did not qualify for PSLF because I did not work full-time at ONE non profit. For that reason, I was not allowed to sign up for PSLF and there did not stick to IBR. In XXXX I finally started a full-time job at a non profit. I was excited to finally be able to work towards PSLF. Unfortunately when i called FedLoan, I was told that I couldn't enroll because I hadn't been enrolled in IBR plans previously. I was again told that part-time jobs ( that combined equalled 30+ hours a week ) did not count towards qualifying employment. At this point, I was told that while I did qualify to start making qualifying payments at the time, I shouldn't. The reason I was given was that I owed {$20000.00} and the service representative told me that I would pay off my debt before 120 qualifying payments were made. I was told that if I started doing IBR and PSLF I would be adding time on to my loan. Now, I learned that this person was incorrect and I could have made 120 qualifying payments by now had I started in the plan when I initially called. I have been frustrated about this for years but felt too defeated to bother trying to do anything about. With some student loan providers being held accountable lately, I was encouraged to just get my PSLF enrollment started now and file my complaint about previous misinformation. It is so frustrating that when I look at my PSLF document, it shows that I have made ONE qualifying payment ; when in reality I have been following the requirements since XXXX. ( When I refer to 'non-profit " I am referring to a qualifying 501c3 ).

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: Comerica
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I've been transferring over from an old Comerica checking account, to another Comerica checking account. I've been suspicious of OD fee practices on the old account. and now i have proof that they are abusing the account Overdraft fees. 

Relating Facts : 1- I have overdraft protection turned OFF on my account. 

2- Supporting the transition to the new account, I leave very few dollars in the old account. So, when a payment appeared, I used Comerica 's transfer own online app to transfer the outstanding amount to my other account. I transferred {$300.00}. Then decided that I wanted the available balance closer to XXXX, so transferred another {$20.00} ; leaving just a few dollars in the account. 
It is worth noting, that it is my experience that this application will NOT allow you to make transfers to into a negative balance. This should support my statement of there still being a positive balance. And, indeed, there would be no reason for me to do another transfer to put myself into a negative amount - especially not when I would get a {$34.00} charge to transfer {$20.00}. 


3- Then, checking my account the next day, I saw that there was a {$34.00} account was charged. The last transaction listed was from XXXX for XXXX. 

4- They have confirmed that 'pending " transactions are updated in my balance total. 

5- Other companies authorized for charging my account with my debit, have reported to me that they can't realize the payment if sufficient funds are unavailable. ( For this, I've paid them from my new account ). 

6 - In discussing this with the bank, they tried to lie and state that I was NOT out of overdraft, until I pressed them on this and had them review notes and talk to the agent from my previous call. - As I've called and confirmed previously that I was opted out. -- -Now they admit that I was indeed opted out, but that the XXXX charge was pending and not yet posted. However, ( according to them ) my account balance would reflect this transaction even in its pending ( not fully posted ) stated. 

Summary - They allowed a charge that OD my account ( even though I was opted out of this service ) and then charged me further for the privilege. And they did this costing me fee totals greater than the amount of either transaction ( I would not and could not have put my account into a negative amount from my actions ). Either my total is not truly updated to reflect the pending transactions ( despite this being displayed as the rule on their own page ). Or, they are allowing OD charges when I was opted out, and then adding fees.
