Product: Debt collection — Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.)
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: RICHLAND HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
There are XXXX debts originally owed to XXXX ; the first with a last known balance of approximately {$5000.00} and the other with a last known balance of approximately {$2800.00}. Over the course of 16 months we 've seen the balances of these debts increase by over 150 % each. As of this writing, XXXX hired collections servicer, ACCTCORP OF SOUTHERN NEVADA, has filed a suit against us alleging that the balance of the aforementioned debts are now {$14000.00} and {$7500.00}, respectively. This is an absolute outrage! Especially since these new amounts which equate to over 160 % appreciation are well in excess of the 24 % penalty rate that XXXX has in their own documentation. Furthermore, in doing the math in the summons that we received, we found that ACCTCORP, again, miscalculated the total amounts i.e. the itemized amounts in the summons do NOT add up to the total amount for which they are suing both my husband and I. We strongly feel that ACCTCORP numbers are highly dubious and that the final amount being sought is comprised of exorbitant interest fees! 

REFERENCE INFORMATION : ACCTCORP OF SOUTHERN NEVADA Account No. XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I was trying to pay my mortgage over the phone and the automated system kept telling me that it did n't recognize my account number, when I finally got through and entered my bank account information the payment seemed to go through and I was given a confirmation number. I called and checked on it several days later and it confirmed that my payment was received. When I received my next statement it showed a " payment reversal '' and a late fee charge. When I called to ask why my payment was reversed I was told that I entered my account number wrong. I was charged a {$100.00} late fee. I believe that it was the system 's error that caused this problem.

Complaint narrative:
My Personal Checking Accounts & Savings from Wells Fargo Bank were closed without notice XXXX XXXX. While attempting to use sufficient funds from the accounts, the cards were declined twice. Wells Fargo customer service department was contacted which then directed the case to the Loss Prevention Department. At that time, for the first time I was notified that the Wells Fargo Personal Checking Accounts and savings had been closed. It was also brought to my attention that the establishment no longer wished to do business with me as a customer. There was no written notification, verbal contact, email etc. to inform me as a client that the accounts were being closed. I proceeded to inquire about the funds that were in the accounts that had been closed without notification. Wells Fargo Bank informed me that a check would be cut XXXX XXXX and mailed. As a customer I am being inconvenienced without just cause. Is this something that can legally be done without notification? What can be done to expedite this process so that the funds are returned. Thank you for your time

Complaint narrative:
Dillard 's I had a {$0.00} balance in XXXX, bought XXXX presents in XXXX which totaled {$120.00}. Payment is due XXXX/XXXX/16. Logged into my account to pay the bill on XXXX/XXXX/16 and it showed " No Recent Transactions '' but a balance of {$150.00}. I called to ask why the {$25.00} difference and was told " The system automatically puts a late fee on your account, if your payment is n't made by the due date. '' I said, " But today is the due date, it 's not late until after XXXX ( It was XXXX ). " If I was n't paying attention, I would have paid you an additional {$25.00} that I do not owe you. '' Then she told me " that 's how the system works '' and got very short with me, so I hung up. Bottom line, Dillard 's is charging a late payment on an account that 's just due today. It does n't seem legal to assess a late fee to an account that is still within the payment due date window. I always pay directly to the Dillard 's site, by my due date. It makes me question how many other times I 've been charged a " late fee '' when I was well within my payment window. Their " system '' should not be tacking on a late fee until after XXXX on the date due. 
**Also, there was nothing on the statement that shows the addition of a {$25.00} charge or what it 's for, it just got added to the balance.

Ocwen Loan # XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX After giving us an approval letter with an approved net, Ocwen is now claiming they want a higher net. They will not tell us what that net is. Instead of giving us an answer, they are further delaying this short sale by claiming that the US Treasury is the one that determines their Net Present Value ( the definition of which make no sense in and of itself and Ocwen is refusing to explain to us. ) They are refusing to give any kind of timeframe that the underwriting team will be finished with its review, and that they refuse to respond to our phone calls and voicemails. We have to contact the Ombudsman 's office to get ANY response whatsoever from Ocwen. 

The US Treasury has NOTHING to do with this file. It is not government backed.

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are handled
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Back in XXXX I consolidated my student loans with XXXX. Come XXXX 2015 all the papers were in order and seemed to have been done, but then everything went wrong. The other loan services Fedloan rejected payment to XXXX. How can they reject Payment??? Now it 's all in limbo and Fedloan will not help me resolves this situation. I have come to realize that Fedloan is like loan sharks. I talked to some one with department of education and contacted XXXX. XXXX told me that Fedloan informed them that they no longer services the loan it was with department of education collections. Keep in mind it would n't have been with collections when I consolidated the loans. But is now the lady from the department of education that I spoke with told me that Fedloan did n't have a choice but to consolidate the loans because the consolidation was complete. But yet this still has n't been resolved and XXXX told me that I needed to fill in on the a form for the new service agent of the loan. Yet the only information I have is for Fedloan. And they will not give me any kind of information other than telling me I need to pay them. Mean time my credit is being screwed and I refuse to pay Fedloan a dime! Especially because this should have all been taken care of in XXXX of 2015 and I should just be paying to XXXX. Fedloan locked me out of my account I ca n't view it online, ever since I sent an email complaining about he situation back in XXXX. What am I suppose to do? Why is this legal for Fedloan to XXXX me over? Do I need to find a lawyer and sue? I did find a lawyer for student loans. But I feel that ridiculous due to the fact that I should be paying XXXX and it should all be consolidated with XXXX. The people that I have spoke with at XXXX have been very nice when speaking with them. But at the same time not much help in resolving this matter. Fedloan on the other hand is rude and shady and absolutely no help at all!!!!! I do not want to do business with Fedloan at all that is why I chose XXXX to be the service provider of the loan. But apparently that was n't a choice. Because Fedloan is keeping it held up!! Like ransom money. I still receive bills fro Fedloan so I do n't see how they can say they no longer service the loan to XXXX. What do I do!?!?!?!

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.

Complaint narrative:
After conducting further research, in an effort to find out why ally bank/auto has been so adamant in trying to refute my Promissory Note, that is obviously, and clearly legal tender with paying off a debt with banks ; I discovered that fraud and a breach of agreement was committed by ally bank. After our contract was assigned to ally bank, through XXXX ; ally bank opened up a transaction account ( s ) in I and my wife 's name, from a Promissory Note that we signed, that became an asset for them, that they monetized, for creating the funds, for what they call a loan, that was really an exchange. Ally used our Promissory Note in exchange for our transaction account ( s ) as legal tender, and yet they say that it is not recognized and accepted by them as monetary tender, what kind of sense does that make! Ally bank opened up a transaction account in our name, without our permission, and we did n't receive a receipt for the deposit that was made from the Promissory Note! Ally bank violated the banking law GAAP! If Ally Bank tries to refute this, then I will demand full disclosure of ally 's Book Keeping Entries per the GAAP, that proves everything I said to be true! Also in the GAAP agreement, it states that the borrowers can repay the debt using another IOU-Promissory Note payable in the same specie of money, money equivalent or credit or funds or capital that the bank or financial institution used per GAAP to fund the loan, thus ending all interest and liens. How is it that ally bank dont ' understand the banking laws they are suppose to abide by!? The other proof to what I 'm saying is mentioned in the Federal Reserve Publication, page 3, it confirms that banks do n't give loans and that the Promissory Notes are to be deposited into a transaction account as an exchange. Last but not least, ally bank only gave me back one of the Promissory Notes I sent them, and even if they would have sent me back both of them ; they still could have made a copy and deposited them. The only way to tell is what the Bank Book Keeping Entries show, if I have to go that far ; all I want, is what is rightfully ours, the Title to our truck, showing paid in full.

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a Home Equity Loan from Wells Fargo. The loan was to pay for my Mother 's care for XXXX. I was the trustee for the property ( Mom 's house ), and there was about {$900000.00} in equity in the home. After several conversations and quite a bit of paperwork Wells Fargo told me the loan should be no problem, I had passed the first application and the rest of the process would more or less be a formality. Then out of the blue they sent me a note that I was not getting the loan for two reasons, one of which was that they " did n't offer that type of credit ''. Huh?

I saw that there was a fee charged to my bank account out of nowhere for {$120.00} in processing for a Levy Order I was not told about. Originally I thought it was an unauthorized debit and I was going to have to change banks. I spoke to the department who handled court orders. They said they collected {$0.00} but charged me {$120.00} processing fee which was nowhere in the fee disclosure I received when opening the account. The account with the Franchise Tax Board has a payment arrangement to be cleared in XXXX 2016 that is standing on the system. When I requested the fee be reversed they refused stating that I need a letter from the Franchise Tax Board. When I called the Franchise Tax Board they said they do not call nor provide letters for errors when it comes to bank levy 's. I called the same department back and they refused again and said they get calls and letters everyday from the same department whose number they gave me.

Complaint narrative:
We have been trying to get a loan modification from Well 's Fargo Home Mortgage for the last 6-8 months. They put us on a {$600.00} a month payment until a decision was made. For the last 5 months I have not been able to speak to our specialist. I have left numerous message on their phones and no one will return our calls and they keep changing who handles our load modification. On XXXX/XXXX/16 we received a letter from Well 's Fargo stating our loan modification had been denied because there are title issues with our property. We again tried to contact on XXXX/XXXX/16. My husband stayed on hold for 20 minutes, then they disconnected him. I called right back, was told by the woman that answered she could not tell me what the issues were. I stayed on hold for 30 minutes while she tried to connect me with a home specialist. After 30 minutes she came back on the phone and said a supervisor would have to call me. I asked when and she said in 24 hours, I made sure she had the right contact number. Well 's Fargo always say they will call back in 24 hour and never do. I am afraid they are going to try and foreclose on us.

Complaint narrative:
In my previous correspondence and details of letters sent and no replies given by Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. I again have received another letter from an additional state agency. This letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX and received on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to my home since purchase in XXXX. This letter from State Foreclosure Prevention Fund, states. Your mortgage company may have informed you recently that you were late on your mortgage payment. If you miss a payment or payments, you XXXX be facing foreclosure on your home. I want you to encourage you to TAKE ACTION NOW to prevent that from happening. It includes the toll free telephone number/email address ( XXXX ) XXXX /www.ncforeclosureprevention.gov, signed XXXX . XXXX XXXX, Manager, Foreclosure Prevention Program. 
This letter comes on the heels of numerous correspondence sent into CFPB and directly to the XXXX portal and Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Executives and CEO 's. All while receiving robo responses and additionally responses to CFPB, stating they ( Wells Fargo Home Mortgage ) are unable to make contact with me. In all correspondence I include my home address, direct telephone number and email address. So to allege that no contact can not be made is categorically false. The semantics displayed by Wells Fargo Home Mortgage has now risen to a laughable level. All while never requesting the factual receipts and records of deposits by myself. It is my hope with the newly appointed point of contact, that Wells Fargo Home Mortgage could take steps to settle how they applied my payments, rather than send disparaging information to foreclosure prevention bureaus.
