Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I opened this credit card XX/XX/XXXX. I have never been late with any payment. I use the card for a majority of all my purchases. I have a credit limit of {$2000.00}. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I make three payments. One was the balance on account for {$360.00}. I also made a payment of {$2000.00} and another for {$1500.00}. These payments cleared my bank on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I made a purchase/charge for {$1700.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I was going to make another purchase/charge for {$1700.00} but the credit card company put a charge, which they said a " hold '' on my account for {$1500.00}. The said it was for 10 days. I asked them if I owe them anything and they said " no ''. 

I don't owe anything on the card, but yet I only have {$500.00} availability on my card. 

I was trying to pay an attorney and I wanted to be able to track the {$3500.00} purchase on my card, so I made the payments so I would not go over my {$2000.00} limit. Now, I can't even use my card as they are keeping my money. 

I want the hold of the {$1500.00} removed so I can continue with my purchase of {$1700.00}. 

I have perfect credit and have never done anything to deserve to be treated this way.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Nelnet has been holding my student loans out of the PSLF program since at least XX/XX/year>, possibly longer. I had loans through a different loan servicer that were consolidated and sent into PSLF within 3 months but nelnet is still holding my qualifying loans after almost a year. I've submitted my request to transfer my loans into PSLF with Nelnet multiple times and have received zero answers as to why the process is being delayed. The typical transfer time for these loans into PSLF is 60-90 days. It's apparent Nelnet is deliberately delaying this transfer process.

Company: BANKERS HEALTHCARE GROUP LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am a resident of XXXX, Texas. I was affected by Hurricane Beryl, which was declared a Federal Natural Disaster. I called BHG regarding any deferment plans they have in place when customers are affected by federally declared natural disasters. I was informed they have nothing in place, and to maybe contact them at the end of the month. I have never been late with any payments. It is unreasonable that a company would have no programs in place to help customers in there time of need due to a federally declared disaster. The city of XXXX was paralyzed from nearly all commercial activity. Power and internet have been out for nearly 2/3rds of the city at its peak. There was zero empathy and foresight for any planning to provide temporary assistance to their customers. Customers should be aware that while BHG will provide loans do not expect any type of assistance in a time of acute financial need due to a natural disaster that is out of your control. even if you have never missed a payment. BHG=Buyer Beware.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.
