Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
CITI 's Retirement Plan Services in XXXX XXXX, Texas is holding my father 's IRA hostage in what appears to be an overt act of theft. He XXXX  about 5 months ago. In speaking with agents of the Texas state banking division I have been told that you have oversight over IRA accounts for huge corporations like CITI. 
It is not a large account - a few thousand dollars - and they refuse to divulge exact details about it even to my sister as estate Administrator. 
When he set up the IRA, he stated that the beneficiary of his account would be a trust established in his name. Unfortunately, as sometimes happens in these cases, he never got around to establishing such a trust. 
The front desk employees who I am allowed to talk to tell me that a more authoritative person will call me but they nobody does so. I have been sent a request for verification that I am a trustee of his ( imaginary ) trust. The front desk employees tell me that if I do n't have the papers they need, they ca n't talk to me. 
The cost of getting a lawyer involved for such a small account is obviously prohibitive, and I 'm sure they realize that.

Complaint narrative:
Over the years I have been financially unable to repay this loan. My income tax refunds have been taken from me twice in the amounts totaling between 12 and 13K all together. Once in for the XX/XX/XXXX tax yr and once for the XX/XX/XXXX tax year. The moneys that was withheld was not applied to my student loans according to my credit reports, even though I was told by the IRS this was the reason I never received my refunds. My question is where is the money that was taken from me supposedly for this loan. Why is the loan on my credit reports multiple times totaling the same amount as day one as if they have received nothing. I can not get any loans, credit cards, or apply for a mortgage because this continues to hang over my head. It has literally been years and I am asking for help removing these inaccurate numbers from all my credit reports immediately. The credit reporting agencies have not verified any of this info to be true by sending me the original loan records minus the tax refund dollars. There for under the law they must remove the false information.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have a VA mortgage through Wells Fargo, they did a loan modification in XXXX XXXX 2014. I had been every ill and fallen behind in my mortgage. When I was finally placed on XXXX, I was able to make payments again and I made several large payments that all in total was right at {$28000.00}, which was just a couple of payments short of the total amount I owed. None of this money was ever applied to my principle, it was held in a non-interest-bearing account for several months, roughly a year. I had been working with their home preservation department for several months, wanting to simply bring my loan current. I had the funds to do that. They refused to accept my payments and told me I would have to apply for a loan modification. I was not allowed to attend the event they hosted in XXXX, but was instructed to be at the XXXX event a few weeks after they were in XXXX. XXXX is about 70 miles south of me and I still had health issues, so it was not easy for me to make the trip. I did arrive as instructed, with all of my required documentation. I went from station to station providing them with whatever they asked for. These Wells Fargo staffers were from all over the country, some were from North Carolina and others from XXXX, Im sure there were other locations I did not meet. I was told repeatedly that I would know by the end of the day if my modification had been approved and if I would be able to keep my home. At one station I was told I would be locked in at 3.0 % interest on the revised mortgage. I was there until after close of business at XXXX. I was finally released around XXXX XXXX and told someone would be in touch within 24 hours. I drove 70 miles home. 
I called them several times over the next 30 days or so and again I was told they were working hard to save my home. Somewhere around the 30-day mark, I received a XXXX package with my loan modification paperwork. I was given one option, sign and mail it back in the enclosed envelope immediately, or lose my home. I signed it and XXXX it back. 
After reviewing the modification, {$31000.00} was added to the principle of my loan and my interest rate was 3.75 %, not the 3.0 % I was given at the event in XXXX. This means with the {$28000.00} I had already paid in, I was only three payments behind, the third coming because of the time it took to process my loan modification., it was under duress and my {$28000.00} has disappeared. I assume it was consumed by excessive fees and closing cost for this modification that was totally unnecessary. I have attached the cover page of the loan modification to show the cost.

Company: American Credit Acceptance, LLC
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX ; my wife and I purchased a new XXXX XXXX XXXX that was a loaner car from XXXX XXXX in XXXX. We signed all the loan documents and were told we were pre-approved for the car loan through American Credit Acceptance, we gave our {$1000.00} down payment and left with the car. A few days later, we go the hard approval but we needed to give our proof of residency, and do our welcome call. We provided the requested documents and did our welcome call. We then waited for our license plates and registration but they never came. 

We were contacted on or about XX/XX/XXXX and was told our approval was rescinded because my income did n't add up because the dealership failed to get my self employment documents which I then sent over and the approval was reinstated. 

On or about XX/XX/XXXX ; we went in to sign updated paperwork and were told everything was done and that everything was fine. 

On XX/XX/XXXX ; I was contacted by the finance manager that American Credit Acceptance wanted copies of bank statements for an account I no longer have access to. I was told that this would n't be an issue a week ago when I spoke with the regional manager from American Credit Acceptance. 

I am suspecting that I am being asking to provide all this additional invasive information because I am XXXX American and being discriminated against. This has been a nightmare and I have been more than accommodating to both but this is ridiculous.

Company: Affiliated Collection Services, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX contacted me by mail on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX telling me that I owe {$1000.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not owe this, as I settled the matter with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX in a mutually agreed settlement. I provided XXXX XXXX XXXX with proof of XXXX XXXX acceptance of the settlement on XX/XX/XXXX in response to their first collection letter and explained to them that no debt exists. They have ignored this and continue to bill me. The only thing they have sent me besides letters demanding payment is an irrelevant copy of a patient agreement with XXXX from before the settlement. 

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act forbids attempting to collect a debt that is not valid. In this case, XXXX XXXX XXXX knows ( or should know ) that there is no valid debt. I have provided proof that there is no valid debt, and they do not dispute my evidence, but they continue to send letters demanding payment, in violation of the Act.
