Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Can't temporarily delay making payments
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
I lost my job and was unable to make payments on my loan. I requested forbearance and deferment many times. The lender would say it was approved but would start messaging about repayment right after the forbearance was approved, seeming like it was never done. Now they are pursuing litigation because of non repayment and have added multiple fees and penalties to my account. This company is not my original lender. They are also under current litigation for these practices but are still apparently able to garnish my income tax refund. I was also never notified of any court case or judgement allowing them to do this.

Complaint narrative:
I set up my mortgage payments for auto pay on XX/XX/2018 Before I went out of town to visit my mother whom lives out of the country. On XX/XX/XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX to login to my online account to verify that my payments had posted but was unable to. I kept getting the message, " 500 Internal Server Error ''. I returned on XX/XX/XXXX to spend XXXX with my husband. I checked my accounts and realized that my XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Mortgage Payments had not been drafted. I called United Wholesale Mortgage ( UWM ) immediately I left messages for two days prior to getting someone on the line. I finally was able to get through and brought my account current. The late payment now shows up on my credit report and my score dropped 120 points. I have been building up my credit to buy a vehicle so that I don't have to walk in the cold with my children. Now I can't qualify for the loan due to the drop in my score. I called UWM and they advised me that I needed to file a complaint. They agreed with me that it was a mistake but advised me that I needed to file a complaint in order to have it removed. My credit score was impeccable prior to this erroneous late payment reported on my credit. Please Help. I am distressed. Thank you.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card never rewarded me the initial sign up bonus of {$150.00} after spending {$500.00} within the first 90 days of opening the account. We called the credit card company and they said we missed something in the application and we never signed up for this bonus. I told them that there was nothing to miss and it was just one whole normal credit card application. Then they said they can not do anything about this. I applied and got approved for this card on XX/XX/2018 through their site and the site clearly stated that youll get a {$150.00} bonus after hitting the spending requirement.

Company: SOUTHSTATE BANK, N.A. - 520 GERVAIS STREET BRANCH
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2018, I submitted multiple disputes against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX totaling XXXX. I paid for wedding services that was not rendered. I learned two weeks before the wedding that my vendors who were contracted by this company were not payed. South State gave a provisional credit as well. During the investigation process, I called twice checking on the claim and no additional information was needed because I had sent over all invoices paid, police report, contract, letters from Vendors indicating they were not paid etc. Someone reached out to me from Southstate in the fraud department on XX/XX/2018, asking if I contacted the company and I explained I contacted the company on multiple occasions and didnt get a response. So I asked did they get in touch with her, I was told no. Unfortunately, I received two letters a month later stating : I was denied and they took back the credit saying, they determined no error occurred and they were denying because the merchant provided proof of authorization. I was previously told they couldnt reach her. I emailed all the information from my account online as they requested. I was never asked for additional documentation Granted I sent copies of contracts, invoices, budget sheet, vendor letters showing I made payments and the letters from vendors stating they were not paid. Along with a police report. How was there no error ... .This company did not pay any of the vendors and did not show up for my wedding on XX/XX/2018. 
My denial letter said I could request copies of documents they relied on if any existed. Why yes, I called several times requesting those documents and never received them. You cant speak directly to a dispute representative they have to call you back. Never received a call back after several attempts either.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for an income driven repayment plan in order to qualify for the public service loan forgiveness program. This year when i filled out my annual certification i was told that my payment would be raising 44 %, when i did not experience a corresponding raise in my income of that magnitude. I called on XX/XX/XXXX, and spoke to a representative who confirmed that the payment amount seemed too high. She told me that she would send through the paperwork again to have it reviewed. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called back as I had not heard from my student loan servicer ( XXXX XXXX   ). I talked to a representative who said that what the first representative told me was incorrect and I would actually have to fill out a form and submit it for reapplication. While I was going through this process of reapplying I noticed that I had been set up for the Income Based Repayment Plan and not the PAYE or REPAYE payment plan. When I had initially set up my payment plan I feel I was given false information and that I was pushed to sign up for the Income Based Repayment Plan ( which has a higher monthly payment ) vs the PAYE or REPAYE payment option. I wasn't even made aware of the PAYE or REPAYE option even though I specifically asked to be put on the lower monthly payment plan. Over the course of 10 years, being on the IBR payment plan vs the PAYE/REPAYE plan would have cost me roughly {$50000.00} extra dollars. I believe that I was purposefully misled in order for the student loan servicer to collect more money from me and that I was taken advantage of because I am a young woman who happens to be a recent graduate with little knowledge of my options.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
TransUnion is not reporting the Date of First Delinquency associated with an account on my report. 

This account is more than 8 years old, and it has already been settled. This is a blatant attempt by the creditor/ debt collector ( THE BUREAUS ) to Re-Age this account. 

I first contacted TransUnion regarding this matter by mail on XX/XX/2018. Despite further contacting TransUnion, as well as the creditor on numerous occasions, both in writing and by telephone, neither have provided a Date of First Delinquency as required. Had TransUnion conducted a proper investigation of this matter, it would come to light that this account is 1 ) over 7 years old ; and 2 ) has been closed/ settled with the original creditor. 

This matter is a case of a creditor 's shameless attempting to Re-Age a debt which is time-barred for reporting under the statute of limitations.

This account has been closed for years and is currently in dispute. I will include a copy of the letter upon which they have been sent.

I need to get a new vehicle and other things and these erroneous and fraudulent reporting schemes used by these companies are making it very hard for me to get my life off of the ground. What on earth could I possibly have done to ever owe someone {$3800.00} when I have never even had a credit card that would give me that much money to get into that much debt with.

Company: TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I was assured by the dealership salesman verbally that two monthly promotions would be applied to the price of the vehicle. I was lured in by the discount but it was subsequently not applied in the sales documents and when I asked about it before completing all signatures on the loan, I was once more verbally assured that it was applied. Upon looking at my forms AFTER signing, I was told that I had already signed the forms and there was nothing to be done. I bought the vehicle ABOVE the MSRP that even Toyota corporation listed. Toyota listed MSRP at {$41000.00} and the dealership sold it to me at {$45000.00}. ( This before taxes, fees, etc which brought loan to {$56000.00}. ) I have been trying to reach dealership personnel in person, phone and email and they do not respond.

My records associated with the account XXXX XXXX XXXX do not complement with what the Credit bureaus may claim as a " validated as accurate ''. I already reached out to the credit bureaus and to XXXX XXXX XXXX for the account number XXXX and notify them of their error posting for this account. I DO NOT OWN THIS DEBT, I NEVER HAD A XXXX XXXX XXXX ACCOUNT, and I have been monitoring my credit report for any changes since my several dispute letters, but I am yet to see the correction that I asked for and desperately need. Continued reporting of this inaccurate and UNVALIDATED debt. I thought they had dutifully complied to the law to cease any collection efforts unless proper validation has been provided. Then I found out that the issue still persists, I just had to escalate to CFPB.
