Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
US Bank applies over draft fee 's on my account, based on the available account balance. They calculate the available account balance by subtracting my " Debit Card Authorizations '' from my actual account balance. 

" Debit Card Authorizations '' are defined below. 
" When you use your debit card as credit, and authorize payment without using your PIN, the final charge will be submitted by the merchant and reflected in your Account Balance once complete. Meanwhile, these transactions appear as Authorization Pending in your pending transactions list. 

Some authorizations may not be shown between XXXX and XXXX Central Time due to processing. " So this means they are charging me overdraft fee 's on pending transactions. These pending transactions have not completed and been paid yet. They subtract my pending transactions from my balance but not add my pending deposits until they have fully processed. 

I think if they are going to count my pending withdraws against my balance they should also count my pending deposits against my balance as well. 

Thanks, XXXX

US Bank sent me an acknowledgement of a facially complete application, dated XXXX/XXXX/2016. I followed up with a phone call to my mortgage assistance point to verify that foreclosure would be halted at this time. However, I 've just received a notice of default dated XXXX/XXXX/2016 which leads me to believe they are dual tracking and a halt to the foreclosure process on my property has not occurred during my review for loan modification.

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Complaint narrative:
US Bank issued XXXX credit cards to my business. Each card had a separate statement, balance, credit line, reward program. After a few months the cards were XXXX declined. Paper statements and online banking XXXX showed in excess of {$15000.00} credit available between the XXXX cards. The bank asserted that the total corporate credit was {$16000.00} and the balance was maxed out. Multiple bank employees looked at the account and reported that there should be plenty of credit still available. After calling around they then returned to say that there was only {$16000.00} credit total rather than {$16000.00} per card. 
In the process of applying for the cards, the business also applied for a line of credit through US Bank. Under the advisement of the business banker we requested {$25000.00}. It was denied because we had too much credit with US Bank. We were advised that as long as we were under {$50000.00} we should qualify for the loan.

Company: National Principal Group, LLC

Complaint narrative:
A company by the name of NP Group, supposedly out of New York keeps contacting me and my family member saying I have XXXX unpaid pay day loans which I did not apply for. They say I owed around {$1200.00} originally and then I asked for documentation. I was then told they are a paperless company but they will email me documentation of the debt. I got an email with XXXX PDF files of some of the most unprofessionally put together statements of debt that which added up to be over {$300.00} than the original amount. I was then followed up with another phone call with them stating that I had said I wanted to settle, which I did not. I then asked how do I know this is not a scam and the girl got extremely rude and said that she had sent the documentation proving it was not a scam and if I did not settle that the phone calls would continue and will not stop. She called again the next day and I told her that I was reporting them and was not going to pay them anything and she said ok sir the well we will continue to call until it is settled and then she hung up on me. Ironically less than 1 hour after I was hung up on I started getting emails and phone calls saying I have been approved for the loans I applied for. So far I have contacted XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. All of which said there were loans applied for with my name and email address.

Complaint narrative:
I 'm writing about a personal banking issue I had with U.S. Bank. In 2013, U.S Bank opened a reserve line on my behalf, at the suggestion of a personal banker. It was pitched to me as overdraft protection. The problem is that the instrument was not properly explained to me over the phone and thus I was unaware that in the event of a negative checking balance, the reserve line would be drawn upon, rather than simply dipping into my savings. The banker did not tell me this crucial fact. Over the course of 3 years, I received a number of unnecessary and extreme interest charges totaling around {$800.00}. I believe the following : 1 ) This instrument was " sold '' to me improperly 2 ) It was not properly explained by the banker ( the process to authorize by phone and there is no paper trail to show that I understood the penalties or how the instrument worked ) 3 ) It amounts to fee gouging and does not alert consumers clearly that they are drawing on this expensive line ( had I known this, I could have simply replenished my checking account ) I 've been on the phone for multiple hours with low level online banking support and through a branch. They tried to be helpful but did n't have the authority to move this along. 

I am diligent in my review of my monthly statements but they are not laid out in a transparent manner and this reserve line was buried on page XXXX. Yet another reason I do n't believe the reserve line was issued or managed in a transparent manner. 

Because my initial conversation about the reserve line with the U.S. Bank banker was in XXXX of 2013, U.S. Bank claims they no longer have a record of that voice conversation but rather I should trust that the benefits were explained clearly. I disagree with this assertion. 

CFPB is a great resource and I thank for your consideration. I look forward to hearing back. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX 2015, I entered a debt relief program with XXXX XXXX XXXX. A POA signed by me was sent by XXXX to Umpqua Bank, one of my credit card creditors. Contact address and telephone number for XXXX was given to Umpqua. During XX/XX/XXXX, I was contacted at least XXXX times by ELAN, a company that represents Umpqua, and informed them that XXXX was handling the matter. In one call, the ELAN employee even gave the XXXX phone number to me, evidencing the fact that Umpqua had so informed them. After threatening a complaint to the FTC and AG, on XXXX XXXX, I received a call from XXXX XXXX, a supervisor at ELAN who promised I would receive no further calls. Despite that promise, and after giving him XXXX 's address and phone number, I received another call from ELAN on XXXX XXXX, and again today, XXXX XXXX, from an employee named XXXX. XXXX claimed they never got a POA from XXXX, although Umpqua, its principal certainly did. XXXX 's number at ELAN is ( XXXX ) XXXX, and address is Cardmember Services, Att'n : Support, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX , MO XXXX. After speaking to XXXX, I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and was told that ELAN did have their address and telephone number and had been contacted by XXXX and told they represented me. 

ELAN 's repeated calls to me are a clear violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I am enrolled with XXXX because they have determined that I am eligible for the debt relief program in light of the hardship created in the last few years by the expenses for XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, my substantial drop off in income over the last XXXX years due to the economy. Yet ELAN apparently thinks it can harass me despite this program and the law. 

ELAN/Umpqua should be dealing with XXXX and they know it. I can only guess that they hope to harass me into dropping out of this compassionate program. Please investigate, and if you determine I am correct, fine or otherwise penalize them so that they will no longer do this to me or any other consumer.

Complaint narrative:
MY MORTGAGE LENDER IS CLAIMING FEES THAT ARE WRONG AND THEY CAN NOT PROVE ANY REASON FOR THESE FEES OF {$2000.00}!!!!! 
I had major financial hardship about 2 years ago which led to income reduction and lots of financial problems. I fell behind on mortgage payments XX/XX/XXXX. After a few months I applied for mortgage assistance and my loan modification was approved by the lender RESIDENTIAL CREDIT SOLUTIONS ( RCS ) XX/XX/XXXX. This new modification plan brought my mortgage current and all the past dues were added to my principle balance. Loan documents that I signed XX/XX/XXXX clearly stated that As of the date of the modification approval my loan became current, and the new plan started with the monthly payment of {$3200.00} which included property tax too. 
LATER ON, THE LENDER SOLD MY LOAN TO ANOTHER COMPANY ( XXXX ). AFTER FEW MONTHS THE NEW LENDER STARTED CHARGING NEW FEES AND CLAIMED THEY HAD PERFORMED CERTAIN SERVICES FOR THESE FEES, BUT THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT THESE SERVICES WERE!!!! 

AFTER MY REPEATED CALLS AND OBJECTIONS THEY STARTED GIVING ME CONTRADICTORY INFORMATION ABOUT THESE CHARGES. ONCE THEY SAID THESE FEES WERE BECAUSE THEY INSPECTED MY HOME SINCE MY HOME WAS ABANDONED!!! WHICH WAS A TOTALLY FALSE CLAIM!!!! 
THEY NEVER DID SUCH AN INSPECTION, NOR THERE WAS ANY REASON FOR ANY SUCH INSPECTION. I ASKED FOR A RECEIPT OR A PROOF OF THIS ALLEGED INSPECTION BUT THEY HAD NOTHING!!! 
THEN THEY GAVE A NEW EXPLANATION CLAIMING FEES OF MORE THAN {$2000.00} WERE FOR CERTAIN CITY & COUNTY FEES BUT THEY DID N'T KNOW THE NATURE OF THE SERVICE. I CONTACTED CITY TAX COLLECTORS & HOUSING AUTHORITIES AND THEY SAID NO FEES WERE DUE, NOR ANYTHING EVER RECEIVED FROM THE NEW LENDER!!!! 

I CALLED XXXX AGAIN AND THIS TIME THEY CHANGED THE STORY AGAIN!!!!! CLAIMING THAT THE FEES WERE FOR EXPENSES THAT PREVIOUS LENDER ( RCS ) HAD FAILED TO PAY DURING MODIFICATION REVIEW!!!! 

I REVIEWED THE LOAN MODIFICATION DOCUMENTS AND IT CLEARLY INDICATES NO EXTRA FEES OTHER THAN MY NEW MONTHLY PAYMENT WAS DUE. ALL OTHER FEES HAD BEEN COUNTED FOR!!!!! 

IF THERE WERE OTHER FEES OF {$2000.00} THE RCS SHOULD HAVE DISCLOSED THEM WHICH THEY FAILED TO DO. NOW RCS MUST CLEAR THIS MATTER WITH THE NEW SERVICER AS I CAN NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY THING MORE THAN WHAT WAS CLEARLY SATED IN THE EXECUTED LOAN DOCUMENTS. 

THIS SITUATION IS EXTREMELY UNFAIR, IMMORAL AND EVEN ILLEGAL!!!! 

RCS AND ALSO XXXX MUST CLEAR THIS DISCREPANCY AMONG THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF JUST PRESENTING NEW STORIES AND EXCUSES FOR FALSE BILLING SCHEMES!!!!
