Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Discover Lies about consumers and I will post their message below. Discover card opened two credit cards FRAUDULENTLY. This is application fraud. Discover blatantly ignored and disregarded my extended fraud victim statements on my credit files and instead reviewed public sources or so they say. Discover says they verified XXXX verified to me by my credit file but its funny because thats not on my credit file and never has been. Discover did not have my permission to pull these applications nor approve them for these cards. I have submitted a LEGAL identity theft affidavit which shows XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX which Discover advised they sent the card to. They said XXXX called in and submitted a separate complaint which I never have and Im not sure whose phone number that is. Its not on any of my public records or credit files. Discovers inquiries are disputed and blocked from my credit files. Discover did not receive my authorization to open any accounts. I did not sign any applications and I did not respond to any texts. As stated DISCOVER CALLED THIS NUMBER WHO AN IDENTITY THIEF OWNS. Has owned and Discover again falsely accuses me saying they verified the phone number. Yet thats not my phone number and never has been. The email address they provided is not my email address and I did not ever register that email address. I did not accept their terms of conditions and I did not make payments on these accounts either. All payments made were from fraudulent checking and savings accounts which if they actually verified are closed as identity theft. Yet they didnt verify that. I am not responsible for these two credit cards they sent to someone else. I did not apply. I did not approve. They didnt clear my fraud victim statements and I did not receive a card nor statement ever. I want Discover to provide evidence that I APPROVED THE APPLICATIONS. I do not take responsibility and these accounts are fraud. You have legal obligation under the FCRA to conduct an actual investigation instead of just falsely accusing the customer. I do not take the answer of you verified to public sources when none of the information you provided verifies to me. All the information on the applications are and were fraud and I did not make charges to either account nor did I receive either cards again this is identity theft and Discover is responsible. Additionally Discover changed these two accounts to my address I currently reside at just last week without my permission. I do not accept you placing my address on fraudulent accounts and without me asking for such you do not have permission.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Fees charged
Company: BSI Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I called at least 2 times, on XX/XX/XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX and additionally sent 2 messages through the loan portal to the mortgage servicer, BSI Financial Services, requesting the {$20.00} fee billed from XX/XX/2023 to be removed. 

Previously, multiple BSI representatives have each time confirmed that the fee will be reversed/ removed, that it was already " approved '' and that it will be a few days to see this reflected in my online portal/account. This has not been done and the charge still shows on my account as of today, XX/XX/2023. 

I have paid my mortgage payments diligently and always on time. The servicer has received a duplicate electronic payment ( 2 full mortgage payments in one month ). I have called my bank and confirmed no fee will be charged for the return of my funds and I have also called the mortgage servicer to confirm which of the payments should be reversed before initiating the request through my bank. 

It is bizarre that no requested email confirmation can be sent to me from the mortgage servicer and each interaction is more a collection service than " servicing ''. 

The request to remove the fee was ultimately verbally confirmed and it is time to get this fixed.

Complaint narrative:
I found out today that I have been charged a late fee ever since I changed my payment date to the XXXX of every month. I was not informed that this would happen and they have been reporting me as being late every month. This should not have happened as they gave me the option to pay on the XXXX and never notified me that there was any adverse consequences for this.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Nelnet is my student loan provider. I applied for the SAVE income-based repayment plan on their website as well as the government website on XX/XX/XXXX. It has been over 30 business days and they still have not processed the application. 3 weeks ago, I called, and after waiting over an hour, they said that it would be processed shortly and that never happened. 

This is causing me a significant hardship as my balance continues to grow due to interest. One of the benefits of the SAVE plan is that my balance will not grow as long as I make the required minimum payment. I have already incurred a significant increase in my balance due to Nelnet 's delay in processing my application, as it has been over 30 business days, or 5 weeks. 

I am just requesting that someone contact them and have them expedite my application.

I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also, it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher people 's information to 3rd party companies, so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can get sued for these damages. This is negatively affecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately.
