Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Bank location : TD bank, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX Representatives : XXXX and XXXX ( supervisor ) On XX/XX/XXXX, I deposited a total of {$1500.00} into my account via the bank 's ATM. This consisted of four money ordersthree for {$350.00} and one for $ XXXXand {$140.00} in cash. Two hours after making the deposit, I checked my mobile banking app and noticed that the amount had been adjusted to only {$870.00}, resulting in a shortfall of {$700.00}. 

I was informed that the money orders were considered 'illegible, ' which I find hard to believe. These money orders were of the same quality and format as others I have successfully deposited in the past. I even requested the return of these so-called 'illegible ' money orders for my own verification, but this simple request has also been delayed without any clear explanation. 

Over the next three months, I visited the bank six times to resolve this issue. Each time, I was told to wait for a response. Frustratingly, no resolution or clear timeline was provided despite multiple visits and conversations with the bank staff. 

Since the issue arose, I've had to borrow money to meet my rent obligations. This has led to additional financial burden as I am incurring interest on the borrowed amount. I have requested the bank to correct this error and deposit the missing {$700.00}, as well as provide a timeline for resolution, but as of now, the issue remains unresolved.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Roundpoint mortgage has violated several mortgage lending laws, has defrauded me on multiple occasions and continues to do so. They have ruined my credit preventing me, a real estate investor by trade, from obtaining mortgage financing for my current projects. For the first time in over 40 years I have been denied credit because of Roundpoints mis-reporting. Roundpoint needs to be held accountable for their malicious, illegal and fraudulent behavior. If Roundpoint has done this to me a mortgage professional, how many other people have they done this to? I believe an audit of Roundpoint 's business practices will reveal rampant fraud within their origination. Roundpoint mortgage is in violation of mortgage collection laws regarding threatening and abusive phone calls. 

Roundpoint failed to properly notify me they had purchased my mortgage loan in XXXX of 2023. As evidenced by their own correspondence dated XX/XX/2023 they are in violation of proper notification laws. A company can not notify you XX/XX/XXXX for a XX/XX/XXXX payment due date and then charge you late fees when they do not receive the payment ; that is fraud. Attached are my canceled checks from XXXX XXXX, my previous lender. XXXX XXXX clearly date stamped the checks XX/XX/2023. Roundpoint is in violation of mortgage loan collection laws by attempting to strong-arm me into paying late fees when I payed my mortgage payments on time. 

Attached also are my XXXX payments to Roundpoint which were clearly made on time. Roundpoint is defrauding my by refusing to give me interest credit for principal I paid over 4 months ago. Roundpoint has been holding over {$6000.00} of my money for over 4 months now and refusing to return it or apply it to my mortgages. Roundpoint needs to properly apply my mortgage payments and back date the principal reduction payments and credit me the extra interest they have been charging me on the scheduled and additional principal I have been paying for nearly a half a year. 

As this is the XXXX complaint I have filed with the CFPB regarding this problem I have also submitted copies of this and all prior complaints to both the State of California and the State of North Carolina, State Attorney 's Office. I am requesting investigations for trust fund account mishandling, conversion and gross fraud.

Complaint narrative:
The credit reporting agency has failed to appropriately address my complaints about debt posted on my credit report. Ive filled numerous dispute that they do not resolve yet continue to post Unkown derogatory remarks and items with inadequate information that continues to impact my credit score. These items have been showing up on a monthly basis for almost 5 years now. Each time I file a dispute they never get back to me with substituting evidence to prove the claim and my association with the companies who are posting on my report. All three companies do not have a names, just the amounts Im said to owe. This is a gross misuse of my personal data and unfair reporting practices that both TransUnion and XXXX are enabling in my credit report.

Company: BANK OZK

Complaint narrative:
About a year ago I opened an account at Bank OZK XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA ( XXXX ) XXXX. During this time I had several overdraft fees and got charged several XXXX dollars. I kept looking at my transactions and they never were in the correct chronological order. On XX/XX/XXXX  I was had two transaction go through for under {$20.00}. My account went negative {$18.00}. I got cash and I went to an ATM in my town and I deposited {$20.00} cash to bring the account back positive. 
The next day I got paid by my employer. When I logged into my account I noticed that bank of OZK charged me {$70.00} ( 2 ) overdraft fees despite me bringing the account positive. 
I went by the bank at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA ( XXXX ) XXXX. I stated the same that the night before I deposited {$20.00} cash and the transactions were never in chronological order. 
The manager stated that her hands were " tied '' so couldn't give a refund for {$70.00}. Thank I asked her to close my account. Than she said if I kept the account open she could refund 1 time overdraft fee. I said no I'd like to close my account. They refused to give any refund. 
I also noticed that the bank changed the transaction for the overdraft for the prior day instead of the same day. On the XXXX the {$70.00} overdraft did not show. However on the XXXX they posted it as it was charged on the XXXX prior to me adding cash. This is like changing the chronological order after the fact. The already created transaction history was changed the next day which I noticed happened also in the past.

Company: EdFinancial Services
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
Ed Financial is my third party student loan servicer, unfortunately for me. Around XX/XX/XXXX ( approximate date ) 2023 I made a payment on a loan- specifically XXXX XXXX - I paid {$1600.00}. This was the time they transitioned to a new platform. 

I signed up on the new platform and my payment was not posting there. I called ED Financial several times- over the course of several months - about this payment and they assured me that my payment would be posted on the new platform. However, they informed me that it could take the payment until XXXX to be posted. 

I made the last payment of {$1400.00} on XX/XX/XXXX of 2023 and this should have brought the account to a zero balance. 

Unfortunately for me, Ed Financial still has not updated this account and still showing a balance of {$1600.00}. You might be curious as to why the balance is larger than the missing payment of {$1600.00}? Well looks like they are charging me interest on what should be a paid off account. 

Over the past three weeks I have tried calling Ed Financial for an update on this and questions about a payment plan but i can never get through on there XXXX phone system with wait times over 200 minutes. They have an option for a call back and i have left my phone number twice and have not been called back yet. Ed Financial is extremely frustrating to deal with. 

Today is XX/XX/2023 and still no updated account & I am being charged interest on what should be a paid off account.
