Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I had a check stolen from the mail in XXXX, 2023 that was then altered and cashed at XXXX XXXX XXXXy the person who stole it. The check was very clearly a forged endorsement, because the person who signed the check did not even sign the same name as the payee that I had written ( and which they did not bother to change ), so Im not sure how they were even allowed to cash it. It was cashed electronically. At the advisement of Chases fraud department, I filed a forged endorsement claim and faxed the appropriate paperwork and information. I had to call multiple times to ensure that this claim was being processed, but then about a month or two later I was informed that the claim I was supposed to file was an altered check claim. I then changed the form to altered check and faxed it to the department. They did not receive the claim. I tried several times to fax the form, each time from a chase branch with the help of a chase employee. No one informed me that the reason it was not being received was because I needed to write the claim number on every single page. After another month or so I was finally able to fax my claim properly with the claim number, and I called the fraud line and they confirmed that they received the proper paperwork. I then received a letter in the mail about two weeks later saying that they did not receive the paperwork. They are now telling me that I need to fax it again. It is currently XX/XX/ 2023.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Problem with customer service
Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I would like to file a formal complain against the student loan repayment company, NelNet. Their customer service seems like it is non existent and their website does not allow for the borrower to complete certain critical tasks. The task I would like to complete is to change the type of repayment plan I am using. This is a very important part of my repayment and affects my finances. They do not allow borrowers to change the repayment plan online through a self service portal. Instead, you must contact them. I have tried calling the company on four separate occasions throughout the months of XXXX and XXXX to be put on hold for 40-60 minutes each time. I have other obligations in my life besides sitting on hold, so I can not sit on hold for longer than this amount of time, so I eventually give up, which is I'm sure what they are hoping borrowers will end up doing. Further, I have emailed three separate times through the email form on their website and have never gotten a reply ( I waited at least 10 days between each attempt ). I also found a separate email address, XXXX, and have tried contacting that. I received an automatic reply that my question is something that they could not answer, which doesn't seem right, as the auto reply must've not even read my original email. Then, I tried another email address that I found on their website, XXXX, and asked the same question. I finally did get a reply from this email address but it was not helpful and they asked me clarifying questions that I already answered in my original email. Regardless, I answered their questions and explained my deep frustration and urgent need to change my type of repayment plan. It's been 12 days since I've heard from them and I suspect I will not hear back from them at all, just like what has happened for all my other attempts. Their lack of response and care for borrowers seems criminal. I need to change something with my loans and they don't allow for me to do it by myself and they make me rely on their customer service to do so, but then they never get back to me or answer the phone. How is this okay? How is this allowed? And, if i were to just stop paying the loan, then it affects my credit. It's really unfair, and extremely frustrating. I really need help and am requesting that this complaint gets sent to the company so I can get help from their customer service to change my loan repayment plan. 

Thank you.
