Complaint narrative:
Executive Office Chase Bank Mail Code XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
XXXX OH XXXX Thank you for your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX in response to my complain to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on XX/XX/XXXX. 
On XX/XX/XXXX my account balance was {$15000.00} and I was very careful not to withdraw from this account because I would have lost my bank credit of {$200.00} if I did so before 90 days. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I went to the branch in XXXX XXXX and deposited enough cash to bring my son 's account ( ending in XXXX ) balance to {$15000.00} in order that he also receives {$200.00} credit. I received statements from the teller that both of us had {$15000.00} in our accounts ( see attachment ). My account was ending in XXXX Our account balances stayed at {$15000.00} until XX/XX/XXXX but all the sudden on XX/XX/XXXX there was a {$3800.00} withdrawal from my account ( ending in XXXX ) without my authorization. 
Your explanation on your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX is so complicated that I have problems understanding it but even if there was a withdrawal of {$3800.00} from my account on XX/XX/XXXX because your computer did not deduct from my account you are responsible for the confusion because otherwise I would have deposited the right amount on XX/XX/XXXX to bring my son 's account to {$15000.00}. However I have lost {$3800.00} due to your computer error. 
On page 2 of your response you are stating that " If you did not intend for the total amount of {$7300.00} to be posted to your son 's account, you may wish to resolve this matter directly with your son. '' My response to your above statement is : this is your responsibility not mine.
Sincerely Yours XXXX XXXX

Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a house in XXXX Florida In XX/XX/XXXX Loan Care, a service company, took over collecting my mortgage. 
Around XX/XX/XXXX Loan Care demanded I purchase Flood Insurance claiming I was in a Special Flood Hazard Area ( SFHA ). I proved to them by uploading to their site copies of a Federal Emergency Management Agency Letter of Map Revision ( LOMR ) dated XX/XX/XXXX proving I was not in a SFHA. They rejected this proof as being out of date and purchased Flood insurance for {$2100.00} and billed my account. They are now trying to collect the extra amount by adding it to my mortgage. I protested and sent them a updated FEMA Standard Flood Hazard Determination Form ( SFHDF ) showing my house is not in the flood plain. Now they say I am not paying my mortgage and are threating to damage my credit rating. I have supporting documentation. I have written several letters and spoken to 'customer service many times.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have spent many hours calling Discover in attempt to resolve their derogatory items on my credit report. Nobody has given me a clear explanation of the reason for the late payments reported to my account. Their representative scheduled my payments over the phone and then Discover increased my interest rate so that the payments would be inadequate. Regardless, this difference should have been nominal and I do n't believe I was ever more than 60 days late. In addition, a Discover representative specifically told me to disregard any notices from Discover about late payments. When I spoke to managers at Discover who had reviewed calls I made to Discover, they acknowledged that their representative told me this, yet refused to correct my credit report. Furthermore, it is impossible to monitor the status of my accounts because their website reflects payments in a convoluted manner and even when I have called, the representatives have not been able to explain how my payments were allocated.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
American Express has been delivering our monthly statement around the XX/XX/XXXX of  each month and charges a {$38.00} late fee for payments not received by the XX/XX/XXXX of the next month. This has been an ongoing issue with XXXX for about three years. 

We received our XX/XX/XXXX statement on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I have contacted American Express three times on this issue. They have waived my late fees but have refused to address the problem. I have never missed a payment and always pay my full balance each month. My credit rating is excellent.
I do not believe American Express is following the Federal guidelines for time required for consumer payment and I believe American Express is intentionally profiting from their improper behavior. I believe American Express should refund all late fees to all consumers who have been improperly charged by American Express 's intentional misconduct.

When I call Mid Atlantic I get no resolution and have had the customer  service reps hang up on me. I was told the new rate is only {$6.00} more why ca n't I just pay it. My loan is for {$300.00} a mo. They want {$300.00} and then add mysterious late fees on top. Mid Atlantic has still sent no paperwork to me regarding the loan, despite multiple requests from me for it.

Company: United Student Aid (USA) Funds
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Settled Student loan in XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. Recently received notice that XXXX was going to garnish my wages which started on XX/XX/XXXX. 
Called XXXX to explain that the debt was paid. They said they have notes in their system about a settlement but do n't show proof. Tried to file a hearing to review but they said I need proof of settlement. I kept proof of settlement for 10 years at which time I moved and discarded many old documents that I thought I no longer needed so I do n't have the proof I need to get a hearing. 
This dept. came off my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX and I have excellent credit and have n't had this issue cause me any problems since the time I settled the debt. 
I believe that a collection agency has " resurrected '' an old debt. that was, long ago ( 20years ) paid.
I have read stories of other student loan borrowers who have had this same thing happen and I am not sure how to make this go away since I can no longer produce my copy of the paid debt.

Complaint narrative:
Getting my XXXX degree was the biggest mistake of my life. I never would have taken out a single loan if I had known that XXXX XXXX was going out of it 's way to to make XXXX mortgages which were obviously going to be defaulted on and selling them and other credit default swaps which was an obvious time bomb for the economy. I never would have taken out loans if I knew that the bought and paid for politicians from both parties had pushed through legislation making it impossible for me to discharge student loans in bankruptcy while I was already at school and too busy studying to notice. I never would have agreed to be a debt slave to the companies that got off scot free for blowing up the world 's economy and destroying my job prospects and lifetime earning potential in the process. When I signed for these loans the average starting salary in my field was $ 60k. When I graduated right after my lenders trashed the economy I could n't find work in my field for 3 years and when I did I started at closer to $ 40k. Studies have shown I can expect to hang on to that decrease in earnings for at least 20 years while suffering from longer periods of unemployment. XXXX : XXXX I have absolutely no more drive, hope, or ambition. I worked hard did well and got XXXX for my trouble, American Dream my XXXX. I hate everything about this rigged corrupt country. I honestly hope XXXX XXXX or some other country does manage to XXXX us.
