Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On late XX/XX/XXXX, we asked RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation to reduce our monthly mortgage payment of {$2300.00} which we considered was extremely high and we were unable to pay. We have a FHA loan for a small townhouse of 1893XX/XX/XXXX sqft. and at that time our interest rate was 3.625. They asked us to fill out a Borrower 's Assistance application to see how they could help us. The application was delivered to the Hardship Department on XX/XX/XXXX per the attached XXXX receipt. The person assigned to our case was XXXX XXXX which throughout the process was extremely rude. Nonetheless, he approved us for an initial trial period plan for a modification agreement ( attached ). I would like to highlight that before we signed the trial agreement, XXXX said that WE ONLY HAD TO PAY WHAT WAS ON THE AGREEMENT, SO 4 PAYMENTS FOR {$1800.00} EACH. Instead RoundPoint kept collecting in the background the original mortgage payment of {$2300.00} WITHOUT TELLING US ANYTHING. We complied with all 4 trial payments which led to the approval of the Modification Agreement ( attached ). It was only after we had signed the Modification Agreement and completed the paperwork that 2 late payments appeared on our credit report, one for 30 days and the other for 60-90 days!!! We complained to RoundPoint asking why they had reported 2 late payments to the credit agencies and they answered that it dated back to the trial period and that because it was a " trial '' agreement and not yet the modification agreement, we still had to pay {$2300.00} monthly. We told them that XXXX had clearly stated that we only had to worry about the trial payments, nothing else! If we asked RoundPoint for help in the first place was because we could n't make payments of {$2300.00}. But instead they lied to us and never told us what they were doing in the background. We have never been late 30 days on any payment! Now we have 2 UNFAIR late payments on our report that will stay there for 7 years!!! They are by far the worst mortgage company out there. You will only read the worst reviews about them in the internet.They are extremely disorganized, unprofessional, dishonest and should be out of business!!!

Company: AES/PHEAA
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I was notified I was in default despite being set up through their online system to make automatic payments on the balance shown. They notified me that not ALL of my payments would display if they were not up for repayment or in default. I made a XXXX payment to bring my accounts up to date on XX/XX/XXXX. I continued paying on time through auto payments up until present day. However, inXX/XX/XXXX I was notified again of being in default through a credit report. I called and they notified me I was in default and reported to credit agencies and was late on {$16000.00}. To bring it up to date I would need to make that payment. This amount due was not shown when I log into their system to review my balances, their online system not only did not include these loans but shown that all of my payments were received, on time and current. Further, I never received any mail that indicated there were other balances or I was late. Lastly, XXXX XXXX has failed to update any of the credit bureaus with accurate payment history since XX/XX/XXXX despite making full and timely payments. This has resulted in losing 200 credits on my score making it impossible for me to qualify for a home loan, credit cards, and business credit. This is the ONLY negative on my credit score and they are ALL coming from the lack of accurate reporting of XXXX XXXX. There were times prior to XX/XX/XXXX that I had been late but after finding financial security I have been diligent about making full and timely payments but have not seen any updates reported to credit bureaus. However the inaccurate and incomplete documentation by XXXX XXXX has also made it impossible for me to organize, plan, and monitor the payoff of my loans.

I have attached a full payment history as well as a screenshot of what I see when I log into my account showing a XXXX dollar balance due.

Company: Big Picture Loans, LLC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I received an offer in the mail to get this loan. It stated a interest amount of around {$200.00} to borrow the {$950.00}. I was under the impression that I could pay this off in a month and only pay the interest and what I borrowed. I have tried to get a hold of the company and they insist that all the payments I have already made were completely interest and I still owe {$950.00} plus more interest to get out of their debt. I have currently paid {$890.00} in interest only and {$33.00} towards the {$950.00} I borrowed. I just want them to let me pay the fair price for what I owe them from what I borrowed and be done with this. Right now they are debiting {$180.00} every 2 weeks from my bank account and they state they will not quit doing this until XX/XX/XXXX. That will be {$3700.00}. Please help me in getting this settled. I was uniformed and unable to view the lending disclosures on how much this would cost me until after the funds had been delivered. I was under the impression I could pay this off with a reasonable interest rate.

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
i have not paid a mortgage since 2016 and i have a buyer who is willing to do a discounted payoff with Ocwen Loan Servicing. Due to the condition of the property i am lucky to have an offer at this time. The home has significant amounts of mold inside and out. The deck has been sited by code enforcement on more than one occasion. I do not want to take the chance of losing my buyer simply because the lender and/or investor is refusing to be reasonable. I thought that the lender was supposed to assist me with foreclosure alternatives. At this time, i feels as if the investor and/or servicer is n't doing what the government says they should do to provide me with foreclosure alternatives, i feel as if they are being unreasonable, by not allowing a review of a discounted payoff. I am desperate for help, and with no other option I am reaching out to you for help.

PayPal - I sold 2 gift cards on XXXX XXXX on XXXX. I received payment for both gift cards within minutes of the sale. I provided the gift card account numbers and access pinns within a half hour of receiving the payment. There were successful transactions, and I have not received negative feedback.

Transaction # 's : XXXX XXXX PayPal has sent me canned responses regarding their hold times policies. I understand these policies, I 'm a long time PayPal user. However, holding my money for this long is excessive, and I want my funds released for use immediately.

Complaint narrative:
This is the second time that Navient, my private student loan company has double charged me for my loans ( XXXX XXXX, 2017. ) My loan is a total of XXXX and to be charged double that is unacceptable. When I call it takes 20 minutes to get me to the correct department and today when I called they told me their wait time was too long and I would have to call back. I currently have a negative amount in my bank account with no idea if this will be put back in my account before I incur overdraft fees. I called last week to ensure my payments were going to be correct and the agent ( on a recorded call ) ensured me I would not be double charged as I noticed I had two bills in my email. She brushed me off through the whole conversation and I am now removing my debit card from their system. Navient has no regard for their " customers '' and NEVER goes to the extra mile to help those in need who have good account status like myself.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, Early last XXXX possibly XXXX XXXX I contacted Bank of America to file a check fraud claim regarding a cashiers check that was stolen. I was told approximately 15 days or so after constantly calling checking on the status that it was submitted incorrectly by the customer service representative and needed to be corrected. That was done and the new claim # is XXXX and paperwork soon followed and I was then told by Bank of America that they received the paperwork and that a request had been sent to XXXX XXXX to recover my funds from them to be sent back to BOA to return the funds to my checking account. Again I continued to call over the past couple of weeks and had constantly been being told its a waiting game and the request had been sent and we have to just wait. I was given a telephone number to call XXXX XXXX by a customer service rep at BOA and that telephone number is XXXX. I did in fact call this number and reached a young lady that told me she would do what she can to assist me, but that I was not a " XXXX XXXX '' customer and that she was limited in what information she could release to me. She then came back and told me I needed to contact BOA again because their department should be able to get answers as that department is a go between and they are able to handle this sort of situation. Of course by this time I am frustrated, so I filed a complaint with you all the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, complaint # XXXX and the complaint was sent to XXXX and XXXX send me a letter XXXX/XXXX/XXXX stating that they have no such request from Bank of America and referred me back to them. The letter is attached. I am being told by BOA that the request is sent and I am being told by XXXX no such request has been received. Please HELP ME!!!

Company: Mobiloans, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I recently joined XXXX XXXX, and reviewed my credit report. I see there is an account from Mobiloans on my credit report. I have never applied for an account from Mobiloans or any other loan because I am a starving XXXX XXXX  and do not have a job. I live on my college campus and can not begin to think who would 've stolen my identity. I called the XXXX number that was on the credit report but was passed around only to be told that the account had been written off. Unbelievable that an account could be opened, never paid and closed without anyone at Mobiloans becoming suspicious. 

I have filed an identity theft report with the Federal Trade Commission. The report number is XXXX. I have also reached out to my campus police to make a police report of this fraud. Apparently, Mobiloans do not verify identity prior to giving out loans.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I sent a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2017 to Capital One ( the company I have my credit card with that processed the charge being disputed ) explaining that I purchased facial cream under a trial period, and notifed the company within the trial period that the product did not work. This call to the merchant was to make sure I was not charged with the purchase. If I did not make this call, I was to be charged {$89.00} for the sample product and every 30 days a new shipment would be sent to me. Capital One took my complaint but had me go back and forth with the merchant multiple times trying to resolve the dispute, which I had done before contacting Capital One. After many calls, Capital One said they needed the cancellation number that the merchant provided me with when I called to cancel the product. Of course, the merchant knew the game and told me they do n't provide cancellaltion numbers. I even told Capital One that the merchant 's number says they tape the calls and I suggest that Capital One insist on hearing my calls to them. They refused. To make a long story short, Capital One refused to reverse the charge, saying I first needed to provide them with a cancellation # before they could reverse the charge. Capital One made the entire complaint about the cancellaltion, rather than about receiving a product that was a total fraud. I sent Capital One ( along with my letter of information ) 9 pages from different consumer organizations saying how the product and the merchant with frauds, the product did n't work and they were charging account, not crediting accounts back that had complaints, and illegally charging multiple times without consumer 's approval. Capital One chose to ignore all this information and refused to reverse charges, saying I could n't provide them with a cancellaltion #. This is the only dispute I 've had with any purchases from Capital One for a very, very long time and I 've been a customer of theirs for many, many years, which makes it more difficult to understand why they would be so difficult.
