Consumer complaint received 2022-08-02 00:00:00
Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Getting a loan — Fraudulent loan
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Navient states I am not eligible for the private loan forgiveness settlement because my private loans were in forbearance, but the qualifications state only that a person needs to have missed XXXX consecutive payments before XX/XX/XXXX, and states nothing about forbearance. I was in forbearance because they stated at the time that was my only option since I couldn't pay and if I didn't that the loans would go into default and then they could garnish wages and put a lien on my house and ruin my credit. So I was forced to go into forbearance because of their threats. Even today, XX/XX/XXXX when I tried to speak to a supervisor, she stated my loans are set to go into default next month and that they can garnish my wages and put liens on my home, which is their scare tactic. My interest rates are really large and they won't lower the rates and they refuse to acknowledge that I do qualify for the forgiveness. They harass me at least 4-5 times per day. I pulled up my payment records to Navient and it clearly shows I've missed payment numerous times and the ONLY reason I did the forbearance was due to them stating what would happen to me if I didn't and they never clearly stated the truth to me. Again, no where does it state that if your accounts were in forbearance you couldn't get the forgiveness. When I brought this up to the supervisor she then stated I didn't qualify because I had to miss XXXX consecutive payments. When I told her I missed XXXX payments she then stated I didn't qualify because of forbearance. It's not right if I don't get it when I felt pushed into forbearance in order to keep my wages from being garnished. 

I did a printout of my account with Navient and I didn't make any payments from XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX which is 13 months AND from XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX which is 9 months. The requirement for forgiveness states : " The private loan debt relief will primarily go to borrowers who took out private subprime student loans ( made to borrowers with low credit scores ) through Navients predecessor, XXXX XXXX, between XXXX and XXXX, and then had more than seven consecutive months of delinquent payments prior to XX/XX/XXXX. '' It states nothing about forbearance and I definitely qualify. 

I told the supervisor that I was filing a complaint and she then told me that my account is going into default next month and she didn't think this complaint would be addressed by that time and therefore they could put a lien on my house, ruin my credit and garnish my wages. I DON'T DESERVE THESE THREATS.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: United Group Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unknown disputed debt escalated to threat of wage garnishment and letter to employer without communication or any basic information about the debt in less than 1 month. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, my sister, who lives in Washington State, received a letter from the Law Office of XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf of United Finance Co., both located in Oregon. 

This document stated she owed over {$9000.00} for an original debt of {$80.00}. 

It claimed that this debt was from XXXX, over 7 years ago. 

She does not know what this debt is for and there was no information on what it might have been for in order for us to try to confirm or disprove this debt 's existence. 

We do not know how they came to the amount of over {$9000.00}. 

This letter referred to a judgment against her : Case No. XXXX. The letter claimed this judgment was also from XXXX. 

She at no time in her life has received any summons nor been made aware that she needed to go to court. 

At no point over the last 7 years has anyone attempted to collect any debt from her, until this letter. 

Following the direction provided on consumerfinance.gov, we wrote a letter disputing the debt and asking for basic information about what they believe she owed money for, and sent it by certified mail. 

She never received acknowledgment from either the Law Office of XXXX XXXX XXXX or United Finance Co. that the letter was received. 

Instead, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent a notice of wage garnishment to my sister 's employer, on behalf of United Finance Co. 

She received a copy of this letter. 

The new letter appears to have some discrepancies, among them, that the original debt was over {$2000.00}. 

It still does not tell us what the original debt was for and my sister has no idea what they are claiming she purchased. 

How can she dispute a debt she is unaware of from over 7 years ago, when the collector will not tell her what the debt was for? How can they go directly after her wages in less than a month 's time while she is still disputing the debt? How could there have been a judgment against her, when she was never notified of it or given a chance to defend herself?

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am well under the knowledge that payment is overdue for this particular card. It is unfortunate that we had other bills that needed taken care of first or risk potential eviction from our living situation. 

The initial charge was for the max limit of {$1000.00} on XX/XX/2022. The payment was processed and then repayment calculated for {$29.00} a month due every XXXX. We missed the initial payment due to job status as well as other bills, and have yet to be late for XXXX ( it is currently XX/XX/2022 as of writing this ). The current payment sits at {$69.00} with the {$40.00} late fee that CitiBank charges for the best buy credit card. We are normally quite prompt with payment, and have been trying to figure out our finances and other bills to get this paid. The purchase was not made without great apprehension in the first place, as it was for a phone that needed replaced. We had little to no choice, as repairs on the old phone would be just as, if not more expensive and take too much time, as the phone was needed by the next day for job purposes. 

Since XX/XX/XXXX, CitiBank has called me XXXX to XXXX times a day, leaving a message only once. They call from the same number, and I recognize it in my call logs. They even call outside of normal business operating hours, including on XXXX and XXXX. 

All times are in Eastern Standard XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX ( XXXX somehow ), XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX and XXXX
