Complaint narrative:
I have been working with US Bank to bring my account current. I applied for HAMP but was given a Formal Forbearnce which I could not afford. I made the first payment and could not make the second payment. The bank rep in error accepted my regular monthly payment and did not advise me of the consquences. I have appealed and was told in writing to reapply. I did so on the XXXX of this month with the paperwork they sent me and faxed in to the number, Yesterday I called to see what type of payment I should make and was told my application was not accepted because the former file was not closed out. When I told XXXX XXXX I was following the instructions of the letter dated XXXX/XXXX/16 from US Bank she was uncooperative and accused me of being rude which I was not when I stated I was following the instructions given to me in the letter

Complaint narrative:
I began a mortgage process with U.S. Bank. A traditional 30 year-loan with an XXXX grant assistance for recent graduates to contribute 5 % of down payment. I worked with the mortgage loan originator, various management and was able to include underwriting in all email communications. My loan originator stretched numbers in order to overestimate my ability to buy, I once found this out while in contract. For the pre-qualify portion I gave all exact numbers to know my ability and my max was around XXXX for debt to liability according to the mortgage loan originator. Although later on I found out he incorrectly entered numbers causing myself to prematurely pay off a motorcycle loan in order to get the debt to equity ratio correct to afford a XXXX town home. The loan application was filled out completly wrong and had to send back multiple revisions for them to make in order it to be correct after having already provided supporting documents. Why they kept being entered wrong? I have no idea. This is important because if myself or another would not have reviewed the application properly I could be charged with mortgage fraud because of a non caring employee. Further more, they filled out a grant incorrectly having to resubmit it for approval. I have talked to them on the phone XXXX in total in a 45 day period. After asking for a two week extension. However, I will be missing the last closing date, due to the mistakes constantly being made my the mortgage staff and management. Due to constant errors on applications, grants, miscalculating numbers all while trying to cover up numbers and problems by providing broad overviews in emails. I am a XXXX XXXX and numbers are my life which is why I always review and request exact numbers. This is a threat to other consumers that could possible lead to unintentionally agreeing to an incorrect mortgage application leading to jail time, loss of money due to a non timely close because lack of attention to detail. Every time there was a request I was able to provide material back within 24 hours if not same day. Now my money is going to waste, Im missing out on a deal of XXXX below appraisal, when similar properties in the development are being bid up XXXX above ask, and I was able to obtain at ask and below market. All because XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX at U.S. Bank in XXXX, OH does not answer calls, does not provide exact numbers, stretches numbers, files incorrect documents, and goes by his own time frame. Its not at his loss but mine and my investments. XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I received an offer to open an credit card with USBank, which they did not honor. The offer stated that if I spend {$1000.00} within XXXX months, I 'll receive a {$200.00} statement credit. I received {$100.00} after spending {$500.00}, but did not receive the full {$200.00} after spending {$1000.00} within XXXX months, which is sooner than the offer required. I called them and was eventually told I needed to fax the original offer letter to them to prove that I was supposed to get {$200.00} after spending {$1000.00}. After faxing it, they still refused to give me the remaining {$100.00}. They stated that they placed me in a separate promotional offer with a lower APR, which offered only {$100.00} after spending {$500.00}. USBank said I would need to reapply for the credit card in order to get the offer I originally applied for. I can not do that due to the negative affect it may have on my credit score. Plus, I do not know if I 'll be placed in the same program again. I am looking to purchase my first home within the next year, and I do not want the additional credit request to negatively affect my score. USBank refused to fix this situation for me even though I faxed to them the original offer letter. I felt like I was fraudulently given an offer in order to bait me, upon which I relied, then changed the offer without informing me until I called about why I was not awarded the {$200.00}. I was then given something cheaper and of lesser quality. The application for this credit card negatively affected my credit score, which I thought would be fine due to the additional {$200.00} that I should have received, but instead I only received {$100.00}. I used the promotional code that was on the original offer letter when applying for the card online and was approved ; I spend the required {$1000.00} within the first XXXX months of opening the credit card ; and I faxed the offer letter to USBank to show what they had originally offered me. Yet they refuse to fix this problem for me. I have the offer letter and all bank statements showing I spent {$1000.00}.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am respectfully requesting some assistance with a very frustrating consumer issue. Within the last two years I had my credit card with my local credit union, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, purchased by another financial institution, ELAN Financial Services. The communication by my credit union, as well as the new institution was poor, and the transfer took place quickly with the XXXX XXXX Credit Card bill immediately changing to an ELAN Bill, XXXX that looked much like junk mail, not a credit card bill at all. As a result, I missed several payments ( up to 120 days ) to ELAN. During this period, payments were made to XXXX XXXX, but the payments were not registered or acknowledged by XXXX XXXX or by ELAN. 

The result of all of this is that I experienced several months of late payment fees, which ELAN declined to refund. In addition, and more severly, ELAN negatively affected my credit report by issuing several late payment reports. Since this time, and after I realized that this transfer was made and that I needed to send my payments to a different address/company, I have been paying this bill consistently each month. Since the incident ELAN posted a few months of on time payments, and for the last XXXX or seven months have been posting the account closed on my credit report, even though I continue to make monthly payments to this account and according to ELAN the account is active. 

For a consumer who has never had any major credit issues on my report, this is a glaring and alarming rating, which is negatively affecting my ability to obtain a credit, a mortgage or to refinance my house. I do not believe that this is fair, nor do I feel that XXXX XXXX or ELAN handled this situation well. Especially ELAN, who, even after realizing that I was not aware of the transfer, and that I had made payments to XXXX XXXX post transfer, they refused to work with me to correct their negative reporting and acknowledge my payments. It even took several MONTHS for XXXX XXXX to acknowledge the money came in and have it transferred over to ELAN. 

In the future I would never use ELAN Financial Services again, nor would I recommend them to any of my family or friends. Doing a simple google search on them, there is a long history of other consumers complaining about their practices so I know that I am not a unique case. 

Any help here that you can provide would be most appreciated. I believe that ELAN owes it to me to review and rebuke they negative reporting that they have been sending the credit reporting bureaus. 

Thank you for your cooperation and your support. 

Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2016 I redeemed {$100.00} in rewards. My bank has a statement on the " Redeem Rewards '' screen that states " Redeem for {$100.00} or more and receive a {$25.00} Bonus Rewards Card to spend on yourself ''. There are no terms or conditions listed with this statement. When I did not received the bonus {$25.00}, I contacted my bank and asked why I had not received it. They stated that you can only receive the bonus once a lifetime. I believe this to be deceptive since that is not stated on the " Redeem Rewards '' screen.

Complaint narrative:
My wife and I applied for a Home Equity Line of Credit ( HELOC ) with US Bank on XX/XX/XXXX. We used US Bank 's online service. We received an online response approx. XX/XX/XXXX with a welcome letter from XXXX XXXX from US Bank. The letter explained the process and required documents. Letter stated that XXXX would also be a contact for our loan. From approx. XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX we supplied req. documents to US Bank through their online platform and through email. Rec. information the HELOC was in the process on approval around XX/XX/XXXX. Never heard from US Bank for approx. 25 days. Emailed for a follow-up with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and rec. no response. Talked to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX stated the our HELOC information had been lost or can not be found. We would have to start the entire process over again. I told XXXX that I did not want to start loan process over. 
I emailed XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, with information that our loan was showing " in-progress '' on US Bank website. Asked XXXX again if we could proceed with loan. Asked for follow-up and never rec. response back from XXXX A couple of concerns : 1. What happened to our sensitive document information that was sent to US Bank? Was our security compromised? 2. Could we have been discriminated against, for some reason? 3. Some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I want answers from XXXX and US Bank as to what happened with the process and our information. I feel and experienced that XXXX/US Banbk literally did not want our business.

Complaint narrative:
I turned over my lease three months in a impeccable condition on XXXX, XXXX 2016. I got acknoledgement from dealer with odometer statement. I always paid my lease payment on time without even a single day being late for last three years. I returned car to dealer and leased another similar vehicle. The lease was with US Bank and made a call to them and understood the lease remaining four months {$850.00} to be paid. I paid to the dealer and dealer sent payment of {$1000.00} to the bank. Bank sent me a letter on XXXX/XXXX/2016 about additional money. The car was very clean and less mileage than contracted and kept the car with them for a month since I turned it over. They are still demanding additional {$200.00} to be paid. There was late payment of {$25.00} as additional where as I never missed a single payment even by one day. Its the bank that took almost two months to send me the ivoice after I turned the lease in with dealer on XXXX, XXXX 2016. This kind of untrusted and greed behaviour causing me lot of anxiety. We need some protection to make sure lease turning in should be as per process and within stipulated time. Not to wait after a month and half and sending additional extraction of money.

Complaint narrative:
I 've been a US Bank customer for many years. I 'm young and it 's still difficult to keep up with the changing methods and rules that the bank imposes on existing products. I was under the mistaken impression that the recent Reg E changes would prevent the bank from charging daily overdraft fees. What I find now is that they will charge an extended overdraft fee if your account is 7 days overdrawn. That 's a miserable thing to do but whatever, it 's {$25.00}. The deceptive part is in their notification of that fee. Once your account has been at a negative balance for 5 days they send you a letter to tell you in 2 days you will be charged a fee. Of course you ca n't possibly receive that notice in 2 days and the fee is already charged before you have an opportunity to bring your account positive. Giving someone a 0-2 days window before a fee will be charged is deceptive and unfair. I received my notice on XXXX XXXX to let me know that on XXXX XXXX a {$25.00} fee would be added to my account. Bear in mind this is after a US Bank autopayment overdrew the account ( and failed to make the minimum payment ). This practice would make it extremely difficult for someone to prevent this fee from being assessed. When I brought this up with the on-duty branch manager at the XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WA XXXX location, XXXX XXXX XXXX, she said since it was n't a " bank error '' she would n't reverse it. I asked did n't it seem like a deceptive act and she said no, this did not qualify under UDAAP.I asked how I could file a complaint with the bank she provided me the regular branch manager 's card with no additional information. I still do n't know how I can voice my concerns regarding this policy or practice with US Bank directly and XXXX XXXX was not at all concerned that I perceived my consumer rights to have been violated. In a single {$33.00} transaction ( which I had to set up or the account would charge a fee ) I ended up with a {$20.00} late fee ( because the {$33.00} was not enough to actually cover the payment, it pulled the " available balance '' instead of the payment perhaps due to an internal mapping error in their very old software ) and a {$25.00} " extended overdraft fee ''. Unbelievable.
