Issue: Identity theft / Fraud / Embezzlement — 
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I reported my credit card as stolen as soon as I was certain I did n't have it anywhere. When I called the credit card company we discovered there had been fraudulent charges. The representative informed me that they put a hold on my card due to suspicious activity. I was told I would be credited for the charges and an investigation would take place. A week later I received a letter explaining my claim was denied as they believe the card was in my possession. This is not true. These are fraudulent charges. I did not sign or put in my pin number for these purchases which I believe should act as evidence. If my credit card company investigated my usual activity it should be clear these purchases are not typical in my credit card usage.

i know i will get a script back, nothing from Consumer protection it appears that no matter how badly a customer is treated they do and say nothing- this is third poss report on the same still unresolved issue and is truly illustrative of horrible customer serice, relations. and resolutions. so badly i am seriously reconsidering where to bank. on XXXX XXXX despite being told it would not be credited before i was informed my interest on my credit card would be refunded. on XXXX XXXX i called to confirm i was told YES. then on XXXX XXXX after i used the card ONCE on XXXX XXXX i asked about the foreign transaction fee said i was unaware this would be billed and why. at that time XXXX a SUPERVISOR told me all would be credited interest and foreign fee. Nothing has been credited despite these communications. now the answer i know i will get based on past experience is that the bank despite the time and money they spend fighting me will still not refund me. of course i was tricked into using the card XXXX XXXX which i would not have done .and only did based on being told i would be refunded. The number of emails, letters clearly exceed the time and cost of refunding me properly. clearly means customer is not valued. i do not need or want credit card agreement that is because i am not questioning it. i am a good customer and i deserve this esp in light of how this has been hndled. if its not refunded i will now take further action. no scripts needed in the answer no reiteration of how many times i was refunded. since for all those times. you have refunded deadbeats who are past due. just refund it like i was PROMISED do DAMAGE control and to consumer protection finance please publish this. banks need to spend more time getting to know customer than scripting them to death for months making promises they dont keep wasting my precious time.

Complaint narrative:
This is a continuation of my previous CFPD complaint. I contacted Wells Fargo to change my payment options so additional principle was not being added to my ACH withdrawals. The associate I spoke to assured me she made the updates. A week later, the lender removed the full payment with additional principle, not once but twice resulting in a negative balance in my checking account. 
The Wells Fargo rep contacted me yesterday, however, I do not believe the resolution is satisfactory. Wells Fargo has now refunded my money, however, I have accumulated {$180.00} in fees from their error. I am requesting reimbursement. I have submitted the bank statement to you. The Wells Fargo rep states they do not have the ability to accept email or uploads. Please note, when I applied for my mortgage I uploaded all of my documents so I find it interesting they can not provide the same accommodations now that I am a customer. I am asking you to forward the information along with my complaint as their systems are antiquated. 
In addition, for the my time, the unauthorized and fraudulent use of my account, and the lack of problem solving, I am requesting Wells Fargo pay me at least the same amount they would charge a customer who paid past the grace period ( {$69.00} for my mortgage ) and bounced a check ( {$30.00} ) for a total of {$100.00} in addition to the {$180.00} in bounced check fees my bank is charging me. I believe it is only fair to be compensated for my time, distress, and damages as a result of a creditor 's gross negligence. 
Thank you for taking the time to hear my complaint and working with my lender toward a fair and quick resolution. I look forward to hearing from the lender.

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a re-finance through the HARP program with my current mortgage company, Well 's Fargo. I have been with this company for years and have never been late on my mortgage payments except during XXXX XXXX. When I applied, I was told that I qualified for the HARP program. I then received a letter from Wells Fargo telling me that my loan application was approved. Afterwards, I received a phone call from a Title Search Company that apparently does research for Wells Fargo who told me that my loan was not going to be approved because my second mortgage was with a company that Wells Fargo does not approve of. Initially, I was told that XXXX was an approved lender for my XXXX mortgage. The bottom line is that I am being denied to loan at a better interest rate ( 3.25 % ) which would save me {$100.00} each month and shave off XXXX year of my current mortgage. I am being denied this opportunity not because of my credit, but because they do not approve of the company that holds the XXXX mortgage lean on my property. The XXXX loan originated with XXXX XXXX XXXX, was sold to XXXX, and then XXXX was purchased by XXXX. I had no control over the selling and buying of my XXXX mortgage. How can I be disqualified from taking advantage of the HARP program due to this? Is this actually a valid excuse for my mortgage company to deny me the chance to save money? Is this a loop hole that they use to keep honest, hard working bill paying citizens at a higher mortgage rate?

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX 2016 I called my mortgage servicer to arrange for a payment after my grace period but before my thirty days. This is the first time I was not able to make my payment on the due date in the life of my loan. We arranged for a payment on the XXXX which I made online. They acknowledged the payment and so I moved on thinking it was taken care of. On XXXX XXXX I received an email stating my payment had not been received due to insufficient funds. When I went back to see what had happened I discovered the online transfer from my credit union to Wells Fargo had pulled from savings instead of checking which was were the funds were. I was able to make XXXX payments in XXXX but am now struggling to get out from behind the eight ball each month. I had also had been approved for a refinance with XXXX which will clear all my debt and make it possible to stay current with my mortgage from here on. However, the inadvertent late payment was reported to the credit bureaus and resulted in my refinance being cancelled. XXXX stated they would reinstate the loan file if I could get Wells Fargo to provide a letter stating they would reverse the report to the credit bureaus. I followed the steps which Wells Fargo gave me to write in to request a reversal of the late payment report and faxed all of my documentation to them on the XXXX. I spoke with their review department today ( XXXX ) and they confirmed they had received the documentation and would have answer back to me next week. However, I was told that unless they found that an error had been made by Wells Fargo it would likely be denied. 
The ripple effect of that decision would result in me having to sell my home to save further damage to my credit with no guarantees I will be able to qualify for a loan to get into a new home. 
I am writing to see if there is n't a rule, policy, or precedent which would allow Wells Fargo to reverse the report for late payment and keep this from cascading further. 
Thank you ...

Complaint narrative:
I signed an agreement with XXXX XXXX to buy the property XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WA XXXX. The closing date is XXXX/XXXX/2015. As a condition of the sale, XXXX XXXX insisted on using its own form, instead of XXXX, to make PSA, required me to purchase title insurance from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and force me to use XXXX XXXX as the closing agentXXXX XXXX Sales Team had reiterated that XXXX XXXX XXXX corporate policy dictates that we [ Builder ] do not make any changes to the contract nor use any XXXX forms ''. 
In XXXX 2015, the closing agent forged the closing documents, decided that the closing date would be XXXX/XXXX/2015, and team of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Wells Fargo used the Closing Agent to attempt to arm-strong me into taking financial obligation and risking down payment of XXXX cash prior to closing, and receiving nothing after closing. Their sole purpose is to gain money by deceiving me into thinking something which the fraud perpetrator knows to be false, robbing me with forged documents, instead of a XXXX, in the mask of complying with contract. 

Wells Fargo failed to deliver the appropriate loan documents required for the closing, never issued a written loan approval. However, Wells Fargo registered a forged final inspection approval. 

On XXXX, there was no valid Purchase & Sale Agreement, no Loan Commitment Letter from Wells Fargo, which on XXXX confirmed that they had never issued loan approval, nonetheless, the closing agent performed a fake closing. On XXXX, Wells Fargo wired the undocumented loan proceeds of {$490000.00} - which is {$7000.00} less than the expected loan amount - into the escrow account. 

By law, XXXX XXXX shall survive the closing date. However, soon after the designed fake closing, XXXX XXXX released my funds to XXXX XXXX without my knowledge, robbing me with the help from Wells Fargo. XXXX XXXX immediately put the property back to the market.

Company: AES/PHEAA
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I have the following issues with AES, the servicer of the student loans : 1 ) AES failed to provide information about how I, as the co-signer, could be removed from the loan and when questioned, I was told that I no longer qualified because the primary borrower had failed to meet the requirement of making XXXX on-time payments due a hardship forbearance he received. I was not told if I was barred for the life of the loan or if there was a reset period. 2 ) Also, AES failed to provide the information about how the account could be rehabilitated and negative reporting removed. They were not able to provide me with a contact that could provide this information. I was told to call the lender, National Collegiate Trust, who then told me these decisions were made by AES. 3 ) In addition, despite me filing fraud claim with AES against the primary borrower regarding these loans, AES reported a 30-day delinquency on my credit report. 4 ) Finally, the delinquent account was turned over to a collection agency by AES, but I never received any written correspondence from the collection agency prior to the delinquency being reported to the credit bureau because the collection agency was given an outdated address. My account is set for me to receive paper correspondence.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I was charged XXXX ovedaft fees by Wells Fargo, XXXX for my checking and XXXX for my savings. I do not understand the overdraft fee from my savings. I had transferred {$25.00} from savings into checking leaving only a balance of {$1.00} in savings. When checking became overdrawn from a payment clearing that I had meant to cancel ( knowing there would be insufficient funds ), the {$1.00} was automatically transferred into checking. Subsequently I was charged for the {$25.00} previous transfer because supposedly the checking account was overdrawn. However the balance still remained XXXX so it was not overdrawn. And I was charged {$35.00} to my savings leaving me then overdrawn. This is my only time with insufficient funds and funds were immediately deposited later that day into my checking to bring it to a positive balance. It is unfair to be charged ultimately twice for basically XXXX item.
