Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I fell into financial hardship after going thru a divorce and was not able to make my payments. I contacted the lender back in XXXX always reapplying for hardship and being granted. XXXX comes and they have intercepted my entire tax refund of close to {$8000.00} maybe more. I contacted the lender immediately asking what happened and why did they intercepted to which I was basically told that they didnt have the lean or garnishment placed so basically they dont know how it happened but didnt give the money back either. So fast forward a few years to XXXX I wanted to advance my degree so I went back to school thru a program that I was told and signed thru the XXXX  XXXX XXXX that as long as I graduated I would not be responsible for any debt. It would all be wiped clean, AS LONG AS I GRADUATED. I graduated with a XXXX gpa. Couple years later I go to buy a vehicle and when they ran my credit I was in default and hadnt made 1 single payment on a program I was told would not cost a XXXX as long as I graduated. I had XXXX pre teens and a XXXX year child I was also working full time kids and we were busy. Little by little the loans got paid down. Couple XXXX dollars or so per loan because after all their are 5 loans. Fast forward to XXXX I had to file for bankruptcy, a XXXX  XXXX. I had still always kept in communication with Naviant doing the yearly paperwork and when bankruptcy happened my attorney took over because they were listed as a creditor. Covid happened and we dont get to go to court until XXXX of XXXX. They removed the balance left owed from my credit report and all was done or so I thought. 6 or so months later I had my credit ran because we were moving and I got denied the house. Naviant had once again somehow took what showed a XXXX balance and added a debt back in to my credit so my credit dropped from almost XXXX to a XXXX. I didnt get the house and had to forfeit the deposit because I couldnt get things cleared up in a timely manner. When I finally was able to rent not buy but rent a house I had by then paid 12 application fees {$50.00} each and was charged 2 deposits plus 1st months rent because of the derogatory marks and low credit score. It didnt matter that I had the bankruptcy paperwork or that I was lied too or I was financially now ruined we had to have a home. My children had to have a home. This is now the end of XXXX and finally they are being held accountable for their actions. They didnt just do this to one family theyve did this to hundreds or thousands. All we wanted was to better ourselves and get a college degree. Shame on you Naviant, Shame on you!!!!

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation

Complaint narrative:
I want to say bout XX/XX/XXXX, I was going to payoff the loan and they told me I'd have to pay all the interest when if a loan is paid off your not obligated to pay these charges. Mind u I just got income tax and had more then enough to cover it. The guy got an attitude with me and tried to belittle me and I do have a XXXX. Then they proceeded to keep calling me harassing me after I answered and said have an fluient american speaking cause I can't understand other languages or dialects. So I told them they not allowed to call me and I still got calls from the ppl I didn't understand with voicemails for proof. I sent them a demand letter and it got to headquarters and then got even more negligent. The lady calls me i called her leaving numerous voicemails on her company call center and still nothing. Then when I do get ahold of them because I wouldn't give one piece of info they gave me a cease and desist letter. Sorry but I'm suing if your not helping with this flat out breach on many fronts. My credit dropped so bad from it unreal I can't get nothing from these cons. This isn't a company at all.
