Bank closed account without notice, I contacted the bank and they said they will send out a notice up to now I have not received anything. I am a XXXX, and used the credit card to sustain our needs when I was in school. I have not made any late payments on the account. I also have a personal and auto loan with them showing prove of my responsibility of paying my bills on time. I do not think it is fair they are doing this to me. I contact them and they told me their decision was made due to credit reports. Now I called credit reports and they are telling me they did not sendany delinquent information. I believe they should take in consideration other factors and come up with an explanation to what they are doing to me, I will be affected. I have been responsible and trying to maintain a good credit report their decision was made without notification and as of today with no explanation at all.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: NRA Group, LLC
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX at around XXXX XXXX, I received a call from a debt collector from National Recovery Agency saying that I owed XXXX XXXX  in XXXX XXXX Illinois {$110.00}. they provided no form of mini Miranda, and I told them I would call XXXX XXXX to verify. After calling XXXX XXXX, I immediately checked my credit score which went down 40 or more points because of derogatory marks related to the collection attempt. NRA in my opinion, did not follow the FDCPA by reporting the information to credit bureaus before the 30 day notification period had expired. I am still verifying the status of the alleged debt by XXXX XXXX who never contacted me in regards to the issue. I am concerned that my credit score is being damaged without any notification on both parties part, and that no notice of how to dispute was given to me by the creditor. ( No person shall be deprived of life liberty or property without due process of law ) I called the collection agency to ask who reported it and they said they would resend the notice in 14 days. This is not sufficient since it does no good to get the notification after the fact. Also, the address the debt collector gave me that XXXX listed was not used since XX/XX/XXXX. 
If that was the last address used, then the last bill would logically be 8-ish years ago.

Without proper verification by your company, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email fraudulent account.

Your failure to properly verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681, unverified accounts must be promptly deleted. If you are unable to provide me with a copy of the verifiable proof that you have on file within 15 days for each of the accounts listed bellow then you must remove these accounts from my credit report.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Capital about a secured credit card that I had open and I wanted to close. I called in asking about how the process works with the security deposit. I was advised if there was a balance on the credit card the deposit would be applied to the account within 5 days of closure. I closed the account and waited for the deposit to be posted to the account. I waited 2 weeks and I finally called Capital One. The rep I spoke to indicated it should have happened within 5 days of closure and he was unsure why. He transferred me to a supervisor and the supervisor was unsure as well. He asked that I call back in a week. 5 days later I get a notification that my credit was decreased by 34 points because the account was closed and had a negative balance. I called Capital One again and was told it would take up to two billing cycles. I asked to speak to a supervisor because that wasn't the information I was provided previously. I spoke to a Supervisor named XXXX and he advised that he was unsure why the credit had not posted within the 5 days. After 1 hour on the phone he advises me that it could take up to 70 days to credit the account and that it was not their error even though he acknowledged I was provided incorrect informationon to include his initial response. I advised him this is unacceptable as this is effecting my credit and I only closed the account at the direction of Capital One with expectation of having this credit within 5 days. No one at this company is willing to assist in the error they clearly caused nor provide any assistance of remedy to the error.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Addendum to complaint XXXX On Monday XX/XX/19, after speaking to a financial advisor who told me I should try to get REPAYE bc remaining interest above 10 % would be forgiven. I said Nelnet told me I was disqualified bc I had XXXX loans. He advised me to ask if my consolidating those, I could get the grad loans on REPAYE. I called Nelnet, and was told I COULD qualify for REPAYE, but would be charged XXXX to " make a change. '' I asked to speak to management because 1. I had been told prior I did not qualify for REPAYE, but was not given any solution ( the solution would have been to switch my XXXX loans from IBR to REPAYE early in the process and avoid " making a change '' penalties '' ) Additionally, I was told I still needed to send in a self certified letter to qualify for IBR, which I had been stalling on so I could gather all this information and do my own research before finalizing it, after becoming aware of all the " change '' penalties, and having made the unfortunate discovery that Nelnet servicers would tell me something different every time. So come yesterday, somehow I am fully locked into IBR and will need to pay penalties to switch to REPAYE. If I had been given the correct guidance from the very start there would be no 22k penalty, however 3 different loan servicers lead me to believe that IBR was the only way and i was stuck paying a third the balance on IBR with a wildly snowballing principal. I confirmed this fact w the penultimate phone call and NO ONE EVER SAID, hey wait you will avoid having a huge balance in 25 years if you do REPAYE instead. These people apparently think we are dealign with XXXX money and that it's ok to have people that don't understand finance from a long term standpoint dishing out instructions and advice that have horrible long term consequences. The manager agreed with me that I was not given complete information, but said he could not  reverse the XXXX penalty.
