Consumer complaint received 2023-04-21 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: MT

Complaint narrative:
On Friday XX/XX/23 I submitted my mortgage payment. I noticed on Sunday XX/XX/23 I never received a payment confirmation and grew concerned. So, I called my mortgage lender PNC Bank because I was concerned about incurring a late fee, but I was also worried about a double payment if the payment was submitted. The employee told me he was not showing any submitted payments on his end and I was good to make an online payment or make payment over the phone. I opted to make an online payment. The next day XX/XX/23 I noticed two payments taken from my account and it was overdrawn nearly a XXXX dollars. I immediately took off from work to make phone calls to handle this situation. No operator I spoke with seemed real interested in helping me and they all seemed convinced it is my fault. I then called PNC Banks executive office. I was informed by XXXX XXXX that I could either get a check in 7-10 business days or get a letter of guarantee from my bank and get a wire transfer within 24-48 hours. Neither were a great option since I had no money because of their incompetence. But they insisted this was the only option. On Tuesday XX/XX/23 I tried via email and phone to get a hold of XXXX XXXX but failed, so I lost another day there. I finally spoke with her Wednesday and she informed me I was missing a voided check to start the process. I was frustrated but gave her the check picture she needed, and she informed me it would take 24 hours to process. And here we are present time almost 48 hours later no money refunded and an armful of excuses from PNC Bank blaming other people. All while my family suffers financially.

Company: Grain Technology, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On Monday, XX/XX/2023 I saw that my XXXX credit score went down XXXX points on XXXX This was due to Grain Technology Inc reporting my account as 30 days late. I have made all of the required minimum payments and I was confused on why it was reporting as late. I have tried connecting with them over the phone, but the number they have on file does not route to a representative to help you. 

I have disputed this claim with all XXXX bureaus. I noticed that Grain has updated my XXXX credit report from 30 days past due to 60 days past due even though the XXXX payment is due on XX/XX/2023. It hasn't even been a full month since the minimum payment for XXXX, so I am confused on how this payment is 30 days past due and I am unable to get in touch with anyone over the phone.

Company: Sequium Asset Solutions, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I received an XXXX alert yesterday that a collection had been reported on my credit report. I checked my report and saw that it is from a collection agency called Sequium Asset Solutions and originated from XXXX XXXX. I have an account with XXXX for cell phones, so I called them. My account is up to date and always paid on time. XXXX had no record of another account in my name. I tried contacting Sequium, but they had no record of an account in my name. I disputed with XXXX and the result was the account came back with my information. This has to be a case of fraud. I have had issues in the past two years with someone trying to open accounts at XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, but I was able to catch these and have them denied. I placed a fraud alert on my account last fall. It appears that this situation didn't generate a fraud alert since it wasn't a line of credit but cell phone service, I assume. I am not sure how to proceed other than to work with XXXX and try to figure out what is happening. My perfect credit is ruined because of someone else and I feel like I've been taken hostage. It's most distressing.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
The first of XX/XX/2021 I purchased a new XXXX XXXX. I have perfect credit and I understand how payments/principle/interest works. I received the best interest rate from Wells Fargo Auto. I always pay extra principle on payments that have interest. I have never had an issue doing this as long as it is specifically stated in the notes section of the payment... .ex : $ 402 monthly payment ; {$150.00} extra to principle. Wells Fargo refused to apply the extra principle to my account. They said it wasn't possible until I was at least 3 months ahead on the 'regular ' payment, and at that time it would go towards principle. Therefore, even though I was paying down the principle, they were not applying it correctly and I was paying interest on money I had already paid them. After multiple phone calls and emails, lots of hours of frustration, I re-financed my loan in XX/XX/2021 through my local bank. I have contacted Wells Fargo today to ask about the class action law suit regarding these practices. They said since my car was not repossessed, I would not be qualified for this class action. I disagree. They mis-applied my payment for 4 months, even after I contacted them on the phone and in writing stating that this was unfair, unethical, and likely illegal.
