Consumer complaint received 2024-06-03 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Foreclosure
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint with CFPB and on XX/XX/XXXX, Wells Fargo replied and I definitely am not satisfied as they provided no proof of the conclusions they came to saying they made no mistakes when foreclosing on me in XXXX. 

The complaint was due to Wells Fargo sending me a check for {$200.00} dated XX/XX/XXXX, saying they may have made a mistake with my government ordered payment modifications during the recession back in XXXX that resulted in me losing my home. 

First they answered that I didnt qualify for another modification due to my monthly income, I was working at that time. Then a few paragraphs down, they said I did qualify for an extended payment modification but I never answered or filled out the forms to take advantage of it. As their proof of that they enclosed blank forms that didn't prove they had sent them to me. I know I never got additional forms, because they had said I didn't qualify and I have proof from that time period. 

Then they said the original {$200.00} check I got was due to a mistake in the amount they charged for the first modification, they discovered they overcharged many customers on payment modifications and the amounts were all less than {$200.00} so they just sent {$200.00} to everyone over 10 years later, with no documentation provided. 

After I was denied the new payment modification, Wells Fargo had offered me {$1500.00} check for rehoming, to sign the home over in a Deed in Lieu. Then they wouldn't have to wait for the foreclosure to go through. Since I had no other choice, I completed the Deed in Lieu but did not receive the {$1500.00}. In their XXXX letter they claim to have sent the check to my attorney but they have no proof of that because those records didnt have to be legally saved more than XXXX years, and they have been destroyed. They have no proof it was cashed, and my attorney 's office is now closed and gone. They can't even provide a check number. 

Back in XXXX I filed for a foreclosure review and stated that I would have qualified for a payment modification and that I didn't get any check for {$1500.00} and that is actual proof from the time period that I did not get it. 

They have no actual proof that any of what they say happened. I don't say what they did ruined my life, but it really made it a lot harder. They did this to many homeowners and they think they can send a {$200.00} check, which I have not cashed to remedy everything.

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: Ascent Holding Co
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My stepdaughter and her father took out a private student from Ascent ( with him as co-signer on the loan ), and as the sole member of our family to have attended higher education, I believe they were substantially misled by this company every step along the way. During the application process they were encouraged by Ascent to choose a loan with a variable rate ( on the rationale that it is apparently their most popular option ), which given how interest rates have risen their rate I understand is now over 15 %. The latest I've heard is they've had difficulty reaching anyone at the loan 's servicer to discuss options available to them. In addition, my stepdaughter regularly reads Ascent 's blog for students, including their tips on personal finances - these appear to be written by someone lacking relevant qualifications, but instead by a college student or intern. I found out my stepdaughter relied upon one such blog post to determine what the deadlines for filing the new FAFSA were for this year, which the article stated was XX/XX/year>. This was apparently incorrect, given some states set earlier deadlines and as a result she potentially missed out on available funding. I just read a Ascent blog post on college tuition, and they show a hypothetical breakdown of a tuition bill, and the math is even wrong on it!! 

Sadly I don't have the resources to pursue any kind of legal action - maybe another effected consumer does .... Anyways, to date I've not been involved in my stepdaughter 's financing of her education, but given the types of companies offering their services, I believe I will certainly need to be going forward ( and will not be choosing Ascent for her future private student loan needs ).
