Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I first refinanced my loan in XX/XX/XXXX with XXXX Mortgage. First I am the creditor. All funds are from XXXX account. I presented to you in a file the loan inception MERS has had my loan as inactive. From that point my loan has been sold and passed to several mortgage companies without my consent and without a contract and sometimes without notice. 
in XXXX I requested New Rez by sending paperwork and a notice terminate my loan to the CFO. I got no response or rebuttal. I recently sent the papers as usual no response. I have no contact. My loan is being assigned from lender to lender without a contract. No contract no means they can not sell my loan at will. I am the original creditor. New Rez, Shellpoint, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX  XXXX XXXX have no authority to sell my loan on the open market. 
This is alleged conspiracy to commit mortgaged crimes has been and is being carried out for more than 10 years. Neither has a right to do sell between either as I am the creditor. Neither has any paperwork for my mortgage. The sad thing is New Rez is preparing to sell it again between their newly formed company, formed by Shellpoint. This is fraud. I have filed with the IRS to cancel the loan. If I can not get remedy I will file with the Inspector General to see that this matter is stopped. 
Furthermore I continue to keep a fraudulent loan current under the threat of foreclosure. I have suffered and been injured by these mortgage companies through phone threats, I have had hardships with my family and filed bankruptcy because of this coercion put on me and my family. During which I have lost two son 's and the pressure of the loan has been injurious to my family. No response from them only pay or lose you home. My home is paid for from the time of inception. My credit report had suffered also. No contract no loan. You have my legal paperwork. I command all the money for the loan back and my monthly payment for more than 10 years back and the loan closed.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have been trying to pay my student loans off. I recently took a personal loan from a family member and made a large payment for the full amount owed to Aidvantage, but the balance continues to grow by about {$100.00} each day. I have continuously tried to reach customer service to find out what is going on. After waiting on the phone for an hour ( during my work day ) I finally got a human on the phone. They said the loan had been repaid, that the payment was still processing, and the additional interest charges will be removed. This is not true though. A few more days have passed since I confirmed this. Two days ago the balance was paid off. The money, however, has not been taken out of the account I paid from. So I went online to check again and the balance is back up to the previous amount plus a few hundred dollars interest. There is no email address for me to contact and no one to talk to unless I am able to sit on the phone for an hour and a half during my work day. I don't know what to do to get the loan paid off and am extremely frustrated that they are not providing me with any information on what is going on with my payment. It seems clear to me that they are purposely avoiding human contact with student loan borrowers and doing everything possible to keep me paying them interest.
