Company: RUSHMORE LOAN MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I currently have a foreclosure sale date scheduled for XXXX XXXX, XXXX this is a very urgent matter. I have a complaint about my current loan servicer which is Rushmore Loan Management Services, LLC. Let me begin by explaining my situation from the past to the current. My loan originated with XXXX XXXX. I was paying XXXX XXXX around {$1600.00} towards my monthly mortgage up until the collapse of our economy. From there they sold my loan to XXXX XXXX. I was behind and applied for a loan modification they gave me the loan modification and I paid them the three trial period payments. After I paid XXXX advised me to keep paying them. I continued to pay XXXX for at least 18 months but around that time I received a letter saying that my home was under foreclosure. This was a huge shock to me as I have paid and was still paying XXXX for what I believe to be was a loan modification. My loan once again was sold to another servicer this time my current one Rushmore Loan Management Services, LLC. 
I have applied with Rushmore Loan Management for a loan modification and sent them all required documents to be a completed packet for a loan modification. Rushmore loan management has all required documents and packet is in review. 
.Im worried that this company will either take my money and they sell my loan to another servicer or just foreclose on my home even after having all required documents for a loan modification. If Rushmore Loan Management Services, LLC foreclosures they will be in violation of the California Homeowner Bill of Rights Act.

Complaint narrative:
Was called by ARA Inc and was told I owed them over {$3000.00} from a XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I informed them this was an unvalidated and very old debt, past the statutes of limitations. I was told that was this was an unsecured loan and that they we 're not a 3rd party, but the current owner of the debt, so statute of limitations did not apply, and I would need an attorney to get this stopped. I informed them, if I needed an attorney, they would be paying the attorney 's fees.This conversation was on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, the phone # was XXXX XXXX XXXX. They hung up on me, I called them, and was told not to call them back, and they hung up on me again. Today I received my first letter from them, dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX stating I owed them {$3600.00}, due in full. This is after being informed not to contact me again, as this was an unvalidated and out of limitations debt.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
These school loans were taken out in XXXX to XXXX. They have been reported on my credit EVER SINCE. Navient has been garnishing my wages and taking my tax returns for over 10 years. I never got a breakdown or receipt of where the money they took was going. Everytime I would call to beg for a reasonable payment plan, they would defer them because I 'm dirt poor, with no degree. If I worked full time, I did badly in school. The college told me to take out loans, so I did. I finally consolidated them ... which did n't help anything. Now on my credit report they all show twice, making it look like I owe double what I actually owe. Again, I called, no more options they told me. Pay {$1200.00} a month or nothing. I cried, I begged. They said I could pay $ XXXX. I 'M POOR. These loans are ruining my life. I ca n't get credit. I ca n't rent a car. I ca n't get a good price on auto insurance and I do n't even have a degree to show for it. Everytime I go to try to do something about it, they tell me what I need to pay, or they tell me I will continue to have bad credit, ect. I get discouraged and depressed and give up. I get letters from 7 different companies. For different amounts. With different account numbers. I do n't know which way is up. They 've taken thousands when I had kids in my custody and I still have no proof of what has been paid. Finally someone told me to contact the credit bureau to validate the debt. That way I would be able to see what was paid, how much they 've taken, what the debt is, to who, ect. Instead Navient sent me a letter saying the debt was verified and they re-aged all the loans, with no other paperwork. I 'm at my wits end. I want to make them right, but I just do n't know how.

Complaint narrative:
i was a victim of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX kids. Barclays re. card # XXXX. Barclays dropped my credit limit just below my balance on the statement cut-off date for the purpose of sabotaging my already struggling credit score.  the drop in credit line for {$100.00} has no appreciable affect towards risk credit portfolio management. the credit line was lowered by Barclays just enough to trigger an over the limit credit reporting to the major credit bureaus. It is an abusive and malicious credit practice. Barclays has done this multiple times to me, my husband, and many people whom i am aware. the frivolous lowering of credit lines on tens of thousands of their customers accounts in order to stab them in the back and deliberately damage their own customers credit scores, and for no other apparent reason besides that. my husband concurs, the Barclays portfolio management team are a group of sociopaths with tiny XXXX who just resent and continually abuse their customers. abusive and deceptive credit practices by Barclays.

Complaint narrative:
Back in XXXX of XXXX, I placed an order via PayPal on my smartphone, while going through the routine checkout phase, I the checkout chart to complete my order, however, I proceeded to click on payment and accidentally click another feature, which appeared to be PayPal Credit, I was only trying to pay for my item, which totaled around {$8.00} or more, but it was a feature to apply for PayPal credit, which I was not trying to apply for credit, especially for the {$8.00} bucks I was spending. A month later, I received a hard inquiry on my credit report stating that I had applied for PayPal credit. 

The way they have the PayPal credit feature on the checkout platform is very confusing as if they are being deceptive to offer you PayPal credit unknowingly. Like I stated, I was only trying to pay for my order. I have reached out to PayPal and XXXX and each agency tells me I have to correct the error with the other agency, the credit bureau and PayPal are basically giving me the runaround. I would just like them to remove the hard inquiry from my credit report.
