Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, I saw an offer for a Southwest Airlines Chase XXXX when booking a flight, and applied for the promotional offer. I received an email on XX/XX/XXXX stating I would hear back within 30 days. I checked my credit report and I see there is a " hard inquiry '' from " Jpmcb Card '' on XX/XX/XXXX. This indicates my credit was checked, and therefore negatively impacts my credit score. 

As of XX/XX/2022, 44 days later, I still have received no additional emails, mail or phone calls regarding the application. I called to inquiry. After being transferred to 5 people, I was told I " should have received a letter '', but no one can tell me anything other than, " my application was archived '' and the card was not issued. I asked for a reference number and was hung up on. 

Per the ECOA under 1002.9 Notifications, I have the right to be notified within 30 days if I was denied or if my application was incomplete. I believe " Jpmcb Card '' / Chase is in violation of my rights under the ECOA by not providing any notifications within 30 days and then being unable to provide me any additional information after the 30 days.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Kriya Capital, LLC
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, I received a letter from a debt collector about an unpaid balance from XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$130.00}. I responded within a few days asking for verification of debt which is my legal rights. I asked for a few verifications items which I never received. I asked for proof to show I agreed to pay what they say I owe ; when was the account purchased from alleged debtor, I asked for the company to prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account ; I asked for license and registred agent ; and I asked to show me they are licensed to collect in my state. 

The company did not respond with any requested information, except a bill with my name. On XX/XX/2022. I responded by XXXX to Credence Resource Management that the account did not belong to me and they would have XXXX  days to prove it was my account, and not fraud. The company never responded. 

I also stated : " If your offices can provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least XXXX days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. 

Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate when in fact there is no provided proof that it is. 

If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. '' On XX/XX/2022, I received an alert about a negative mark on my credit from Credence Resource Management. 

This is clearly a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and defamation of character. I can legally bring suit for this violation and I am giving the company time to reconcile the wrongdoings before it causes any financial harm to my good name.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I took out XXXX XXXX XXXX  to finish my XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I graduated XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. ago. My loan started out as {$79000.00} and is currently {$100000.00}. I have paid every since then. When I exited college, no one talked to me about how to appropriately choose payments that would pay off my account.We struggled financially as a XXXX XXXX XXXX so picking the one of the lower payment was our choice. We knew it would take a little longer but we assumed that the balance would go down and we could change it along the way when things got better. My husband was laid off twice, so I took a forebarence for a year... again no one talked to me about how much my interest was or talked to me about getting me on another plan. When ever I would call to speak with someone, I was always left confused because I don't think they really knew what they were talking about. I've been a XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  so once I learned of the XXXX XXXX I began applying, each time was told no I was missing something, we need a copy of your income tax form, and two years ago I heard " you need to have 120 payments but your plan is okay '' then it was " you are on the wrong payment plan ''. When I tried to get details about what they meant, I still didn't get any clarity to this question. Each time I called, the rules of the game changed! The last time I wrote to XXXX and was rejected I asked for something in writing so I could have proof, and something tangible to follow. I never received that letter. 
Mohela then took over and I have spent months jumping through hoops. I included every piece of correspondance with XXXX and a copy of my payments. I was so happy to see that it didn't matter about what payment plan I had been on, if I had a forbearance in the past, and suspended payments because of COVID counted. Bottom line is I've been on a payment plan for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and my debt didn't go down even by a penny, it increased by {$24000.00}, making my balance increase to {$100000.00}! I don't know about you but something is seriously wrong with this picture! I I just received an email from Mohela leaving me with 43 payments to still pay and because the payment had to be income driven, my payment has more than doubled!
