Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Made a payment of {$60.00} on XX/XX/XXXX through the mobile app, and made two other payments of {$20.00} and {$25.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, all from the same bank account. I noticed that my current balance was updated, but it showed that my available credit was still {$0.00}. I called in on XX/XX/XXXX around XXXX XXXX to ask about my account and the representative told me that we need to do some verification and we did, but the last two payments werent posted yet so I decided to call them again after XXXX XXXX. Since the customer service department for my bank account didnt open til XXXX XXXX, the representative asked me to call in the morning to do the verification process. OnXX/XX/XXXX I called my credit card company to get those funds released and so we had to do the verification process again. All payments were confirmed by the bank and the service rep said that I will be seeing my available credit after three minutes. After 30 minutes, I checked it and it wasnt updated at all. Took me at least 3 service reps to get the funds finally released. When I tried to use it at a store later that day, my card got declined due to suspected fraud which was odd because an hour ago before my purchase at a store, I was able to make a transaction online. On XX/XX/XXXX, in the evening, I checked my balance and the available credit was {$0.00} despite not maxing out my credit card. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to ask if there was something wrong with my account. The first service rep told me that my account was restricted and so he released the restriction but I had to call again so someone can help me with the available credit issue. One of them told me that one of the payments ( {$20.00} ) I made was put on hold ( despite being released on XX/XX/XXXX ) and I had to do the verification process again. I asked them to check the history of the calls or notes and they said there was none despite talking to two different people on XX/XX/XXXX in the morning to help me release the funds immediately. I currently can not use my credit card for any purchase because they will not release the funds so I would have to wait for 5 business days again. I will pay my card full and will cancel with this company.

XXXX lease see attached printout from my US Bank online statement. I authorized XXXX to debit my account {$100.00} which left me just over {$2.00}. POSITIVE. They still charged me {$36.00}.

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: Cash Express, LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a flex loan with Cash Express last year. The employee told me that it would be cheaper than the current loan I had with them and we could pay my current loan off with the new loan. When I got my first statement, I realized that the employee had not been truthful. The previous loan I had was only due once a month with low interest. The new loan is due every two weeks with 279.5 % interest. Soon after I went in to make my payment and the store had new employees. They looked over my file and realized that the employee who originally filed my application was not truthful about my monthly income. Without my knowledge she put on the application that my income was significantly higher than it really is. I also noticed that my statement sent in the mail did not match what they verbally said that I owe every two weeks. My statement shows that I owe a payment monthly. When I questioned them about this, they said that my statement is not correct. They said that the amount on my statement is actually split into two payments that are due every payday. Around XX/XX/XXXX when I called and asked how much my payment was they said they weren't sure because there was something wrong with their system. They said just pay whatever, like {$100.00}. I did as they requested. Soon after, the location I had been going to closed down. They told me I needed to work with another location. The manager from the other location called me on XX/XX/XXXX around XXXX XXXX. She told me that even though I made a payment of {$120.00} on XX/XX/XXXX that I needed to bring in {$99.00} by XXXX XXXX  or they would ACH my account. I told them that I wasn't aware of any money due and had not received a statement reflecting that. She said the past due amount was from previous months when the employee at the other location was telling me to pay whatever I wanted. I explained to her that I did not have the money in my account and I needed them to hold it until XX/XX/XXXX since I wasn't even aware until that day that it was owed. She agreed to hold it until XX/XX/XXXX. She did not do as she agreed. She sent through an ACH on my account that evening, XX/XX/XXXX, after saying she would hold it. My concern now is that my statement every month is not matching what I owe. For example, my statement for XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX that I received yesterday shows that I have {$210.00} due on XX/XX/XXXX. The manager called me yesterday demanding that I pay {$130.00} by XXXX XXXX or they would ACH my account. I called and spoke with the district manager today, XX/XX/XXXX and told her that I was filling the report and would not pay until XX/XX/XXXX as my payment reflects.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Late XX/XX/XXXX to early XX/XX/XXXX, I was receiving phone calls from Navient regarding that my payments for my student loans were now under delinquency. I had them under deferment period while I was getting my XXXX 's. Navient never once contacted me or my parents through mail, email or phone until after the bill was late by 90 days. I was never informed that my loan payments were due until I received a phone call telling me they were 90 days late. Because of this action on Navient I now have a delinquent account marked on my Credit Report that is inhibiting me from qualifying for loan repayment programs. I have contacted the company regarding the issue, and they are not helpful by any means. Ever since I was informed of my loans to Navient I have been paying over the minimum amount due monthly.
