Product: Prepaid card — Gift card
Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to spend money in a store or online
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Received an American Express {$200.00} gift card as a bonus in XX/XX/2023. First card didnt work so a replacement was issued. The second card worked once in XX/XX/2023 for {$49.00} and since then had been declined at every major on line merchant as well as in person at several large chains including XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. I called American Express gift card services who basically told me to keep trying merchants until it works. Wow!! Id expect this from some small time gift card but American Express. I have since found out from several on line reviews that this is part of a larger pattern by American Express. This problem happens all the time and American Express seems unwilling to fix the problem.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: States Recovery Systems, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
A {$50000.00} credit line was taken out from XXXX XXXX  in the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX and used my name as the 100 % owner of the company. I have never had any affiliation with this company or XXXX XXXX. The first I was aware of this was after a default judgement was entered against me. I went to court on XXXX for a motion to vacate renewal was not successful. 

I wrote a letter to the bank and also asked the collection agency ( States Recovery Systems ) to supply me with the original loan documents to no avail. 

The information on the loan application submitted by XXXX XXXX XXXX is fictitious and not associated with me in any way. 

There is no supporting documentation for the loan : No copy of my valid driver 's license No business and/or financial documentation associated with me in any way No copy of bank/liquidity account statement associated with me in any way No tax return information associated with me in any way No articles of Incorporation for XXXX & XXXX XXXX filed with the Secretary of State, which bear my name The signature on the loan is not mine and never lived in XXXX XXXX. 

It is also alarming that the bank officer on the loan application has the same last name of the treasurer of XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I received this business debit card from Square issued by XXXX Bank with my name and under business name Lab Barbershop which I am not affiliated with during the week of XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX. I have no business of any sort nor I applied to attain this card. I called XXXX different numbers for XXXX and attained XXXX different case numbers. The first number I called ( XXXX ) XXXX seems really suspicious cause the person I spoke to XXXX can not provide me information on when i can find out if my account was closed or not. He does not have the understanding of the urgency to close my account right away. The XXXX number ( XXXX ) XXXX seems more legit cause XXXX can verify if the card is real and she was able to help me to make sure that my concern to close this account immediately was addressed. I am going to follow-up on the status of the card to be closed immediately as this is not opened under my consent and with the business name I am not affiliated nor own.

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: MI

Complaint narrative:
I have had multiple problems with Aidvantage, which apparently has now been named my student loan servicer. First, I have only just now received my first billing statement from Aidvantage - only 10 days before the first payment is due rather than the 30 days required, as per federal law. Second, my student loan servicer was previously XXXX and was transferred to AidVantage without my receiving notification of the transfer. Third, I have tried calling AidVantage multiple times and am continually disconnected after multiple hours of holding without having the opportunity to speak to a representative or registering my complaint. Fourth, the original date listed on AidVantage 's website for the loan becoming due occurred 3 months before I graduated, although this date did fall during the payment pause. This loan servicer is in clear and flagrant violation of existing federal statutes by not following legally mandate notification requirements before the first payment is due. I would like to use another servicer, if at all possible, and if not I would like to file a claim against AidVantage in court.
