Company: Premier Student Loan Center
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I saw an ad on a social media site stating " Loan Forgiveness Program '', I was interested because I have loans that I needed to consolidate, so I ended up calling the number XXXX, someone answered right away asking me how many loans I had, for my social and all my information, he put me on hold for 5 minutes claiming he was speaking with his manager in order to get me the loan forgiveness plan & explaining to me that I would have to pay anything after me paying them. I gave them my debit card information and they charged me a total of {$790.00}. According to the person on the phone, he said the payment went through, and that from there forward I would n't have to worry about any more payments, therefore, my school loans were at {$0.00} balance. I also have documentation where they said I signed which I never did, use a cursive font in order to make it seem as I signed. One year later I now recieved a letter for Federal Student Aid stating I had to start paying my student loans. I thought this must be a mistake because I already " consolidated '' my loans why would I have to continue to pay anything anymore? I called the Federal Student Aid and to my surprise, all they did was take my information and pretend to be me and have my loans in deferment. I also tried to log-in to the Federal Student Aid website in order to proceed with the Income driven re-payment plan and they had used my information, created an email address I have never used, also use a California address and phone number all associated with this account. I have lived my XXXX years of my life in Florida. Why would I use any contact information in California? These people have scammed me out of my money for in their words " documentation preparations '', which I could have done personally for FREE.

Company: TIDEWATER FINANCE COMPANY, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern : I purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX  from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  MD XXXX ) on XXXX XXXX, 2017. I was financed by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX ). While financing the vehicle, this company has placed my payment on another customers account and have called and harassed me multiple times about the payment that was made even though there were notes in the account that stated that they had to put the payment on the correct account. On XXXX XXXX, 2017, I received a notice from XXXX XXXX stating that I had a change in my credit report. When I checked the report XXXX had my account with Tidewater labeled as closed-paid and on XXXX it showed the same and stated that this loan was included in my Chapter XXXX  bankruptcy. With that being said, all of my payment history was erased and my credit score plummeted. This has caused me a tremendous amount of undue stress and mental anguish. Seeing as how this company has no regard for its customers or their credit, I would like for Tidewater to take possession of the vehicle that they have written off and not hold me liable for said loan since they have destroyed my credit. I would like all correspondence to be submitted in writing and all phone calls to cease. Any correspondence should be forwarded to myself as well as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for their records.

Complaint narrative:
after viewing my credit report  in XXX 2017 i noticed their were a few items on my file in which i did not apply for nor authorized. i reached out to the companies as well as the credit bureau to dispute them. i obtained a police report and sent to the collection agencies as well as a dispute letter asking for verification bearing my signature. they did not send the verification but in XX/XX/XXXX sent a bill and a letter asking me to send in 2 utility bills and my identification. this is strange to me considering the fact that i sent them a dispute asking for verification in XXX 2017. It has now been well over 30 days and i have not received the verification and the incorrect information is still on my file. This is totally against the law and against FCRA rules. I also reached out to XXXX whom is the original creditors but  there was no resolution

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
My credit reports are frozen at my request ; however, once a year my bank, XXXX, is required by the federal government to request a credit report because of a large business loan. They use Trans Union. I called Trans Union and asked for a temporary lift for both my wife and me. I asked for a unique number to give to the bank which I received from Trans Union and I passed on to the bank. My banker called and said that the numbers did not work. I called Trans Union and the young lady who answered checked the information and said they should work " have the bank called the marketing department. '' I asked the young lady for the number to which he replied " the bank has the number and disconnected the call. This call was made during the timeframe the account was unfrozen. My banker could never retrieve my credit report. I went to the bank on XX/XX/XXXX and together we called Trans Union. After asking to speak with a supervisor, I was told that the problem was that the bank did n't have the right software to use the number that Trans Union gave me and " if I had called during the freeze they could 've done something about it but since the freeze had been placed back on the account I would have to pay the fee again. I did call during the freeze. And was not told anything about the numbers not working with particular banks. I was treated rudely and I have been forced to pay the {$20.00} again but something should be done about this kind of treatment. I resent having to pay to lift my credit twice when it was not my error but rather lack of information from Trans Union.

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, 2017, I went on Regions.com online banking website to make a payment on my Regions XXXX  Card. The payments are due on the XXXX of each month. I made a payment of {$100.00}. I received confirmation of it being received. A couple of days later, i checked back to my online account where it showed ( ACH Return ... {$100.00} ) I did n't think much of it at this particular time, until I made the XX/XX/XXXX payment for {$200.00} and the same thing happened again. I checked with my Financial Institution to see what was happening. It was determined that the transaction was pulling from my savings account, instead of my checking account which is the account I always pay my bills. I only keep a very small amount of dollars in my saving account. I was told that I had left off a digit that should precede the account number. I was never told that was how it should be done until this issue came about. If you look at my history of making payments, you will see that I am consisted in making my payments on time. I value my credit worthiness and have worked hard over the years to maintain a high standard of excellence when it comes to my credit score. I am sending extra documentation to help substantiate what I have written in this statement. Please reconsider removing the negative information from my credit reports with each credit bureau. Thank you. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account at the end of XXXX 2017 under a promotion where if I had 2 direct deposits from my employer of {$300.00} or more I was to receive {$200.00} within 120 days of account opening. The website also mentioned that if I applied online this promotion would automatically be applied. I met the terms of the promotion within several weeks from my paycheck, I work for the XXXX XXXX and allotted {$300.00} per paycheck to this account. The 120 days has came and went with no bonus. I called the bank and after waiting a half hour on hold, they told me to keep waiting and if I met the terms it will eventually show up. That response was open ended and ambiguous, and just plain unacceptable. I certainly believe I met the terms of the promotion and the bank has not kept its end of the deal.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
Collection companies are changing dates of original date of debt. I contacted collection agencies and receive no response. I contacted Equifax and they tell me I have to prove it. Yet Equifax has had it on my credit for numerous years. For example : XXXX XXXX shows {$240.00} this year - the debt from XXXX was acquired in 2006. This shows up on all credit bureaus. XXXX XXXX shows I owe them, I went to court, the debt was dismissed IN COURT because I turned over my home to XXXX XXXX, Equifax will not remove from my credit, even after I mailed then proof of the court document. I have four credit cards - all in good standing - why does n't Equifax reflect that in my account or score? Also, their credit score is XXXX points less than the other credit reporting agencies with the same information, why?
