Company: Ascendium Education Group
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Ascendium Education Solutions regarding their refusal to refund payments totaling {$17000.00} made on a FFELP loan tied to my enrollment at XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX has been widely recognized as engaging in fraudulent and deceptive practices, leading to its closure in XXXX and the discharge of many loans under the Department of Educations Borrower Defense to Repayment program. While my FFELP loan has been discharged, Ascendium, as the guarantor, has retained payments I made from XXXX to XXXX, citing Department of Education policy.

I believe that

Ascendiums retention of these payments is unjust and violates principles of fairness and equity. Their refusal to refund payments effectively enriches them at the expense of a borrower who was misled into incurring debt under false pretenses. I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and take action to ensure that guarantors like Ascendium are held accountable for refunding payments tied to fraudulent loans.

Complaint narrative:
I am contacting you to formally state my dissatisfaction with the way Zelle deals with conflicts, especially in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit that has revealed major issues with the service. Despite using Zelle multiple times and flagging inconsistencies, my bank and Zelle did not thoroughly investigate my complaints. They stated that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracing these transactions was not viable. The CFPB 's report shows that Zelle has not only failed to safeguard consumers but has also allowed dishonest individuals to take advantage of the system, putting users at risk of fraud. This lack of responsibility and openness is not acceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer protection.
