Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I entered into a hardship program with Wells Fargo for my Cash Back credit card after I was let go from my job due to a company restructuring. I enrolled in the program to reduce my interest rate so I could make payments that contributed to the principal balance instead of just covering interest. 

During the phone call in which I agreed to the hardship program, the Wells Fargo representative informed me that my credit card account would be closed as a condition of enrollment. However, at no point during that call was I told that closing the account would result in the forfeiture of my cash rewards, which at the time totaled {$390.00}. 

I later received a letter after the account was already closed, stating that reward balances were forfeited. This information came after the fact and did nothing to give me a chance to redeem the rewards I had already earned. Had I been informed beforehand, I would have redeemed them immediately. 

Importantly, I believe that Wells Fargo records all customer service calls, including the one where I enrolled in the hardship program. I am confident that a review of that call will prove that no mention was made of rewards forfeiture prior to account closure. This lack of disclosure is misleading and has caused me financial harm during an already difficult time. 

I contacted both the credit card and rewards departments and was told there was nothing they could do because the account is closed and can not be reopened. However, these were rewards I earned through purchases, and I am still fully responsible for paying back the same charges that generated those rewards. Wells Fargo should not be allowed to retain those funds without having clearly informed me of the consequence.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage loan was paid off, in full as of XX/XX/XXXX. NewRez ( Mortgage Company ) sent physical correspondence to my address dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating that : " We have sent an instrument of satisfaction or cancellation of the referenced loan to the proper public officer to authorize that officer to cancel the loan of record. When it is recorded, the instrument will be forwarded to you at the last address we have on file. Georgia Code Ann. 44-14-3 requires us to send this instrument to be recorded within 60 days following payoff of the loan. If this instrument is not sent within 60 days, you would have the right to demand of us in writing the payment to you of {$500.00} in liquidated damages. '' This letter/instrument has not been received as of today. 

Also, I received my XXXX Form XXXX Mortgage Interest Statement and it still displays an outstanding mortgage principal of {$47000.00} even though the loan is paid in full. For this reason, I believe that this instrument of satisfaction has not been filed with the proper public officer. 

I reached out to NewRez once via my Account portal on XX/XX/XXXX and I received a physical correspondence in the mail ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ) that acknowledged my inquiry. I reached out once again via email on XX/XX/XXXX asking for an appropriate response within 15 days, after which my legal counsel would contact them. I again received a physical correspondence in the mail ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ) that acknowledged my inquiry. 

Since this time, my spouse has spoken to NewRez via phone calls on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. Both times, the NewRez representative stated that the Form XXXX was being worked on, gave dates that were weeks and/or months in the future as to when we could expect to receive the corrected form. On XX/XX/XXXX, a final attempt was made to reach out to NewRez via the phone, however we now receive a message that our " Account can not be found ''. We attempted to call 8 times that day with the same message. No further correspondence has been received. 

Because of the significant delay in receiving a corrected Form XXXX, I have had to file for extension for my XXXX and XXXX taxes, as I do not have the correct forms to complete the taxes. This will result in my having to pay interest on any amount that is determined to be owed. 

I need to receive the liquidated damages of {$500.00}, as the instrument of satisfaction was not sent within 60 days as required by law. I also need to receive the corrected Form XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a XXXX transaction that has not been resolved despite multiple attempts to recover the funds. 

On XX/XX/year>, I sent {$750.00} via XXXX from my XXXX XXXX  account to a recipients KeyBank account. The intended recipient did not recognize my name and declined the transfer. However, the funds were never returned to my XXXX account. 

I promptly filed a dispute with XXXX XXXX  and have followed up with their representatives on several occasions. Despite these efforts, the funds have not been recovered. XXXX XXXX  has requested a tracer ID from KeyBank to investigate the matter further. Unfortunately, KeyBank has stated that they are unable to provide the tracer ID, reportedly due to a request from the recipient. 

As a result, I am left without the funds and without a clear resolution path. I am seeking the CFPBs assistance in facilitating a resolution and ensuring that the appropriate institutions are held accountable for the handling of this transaction. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
