Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted an application for consolidation through XXXX. All of my student loans are direct federal loans and I have been working toward public service forgiveness for XXXX years now. My consolidation was processed and MOHELA, who has been my servicer since XXXX stopped, switched their platforms. My newly consolidated loans were there correctly but I was on the standard repayment plan, even though I requested to be on SAVE as a part of the consolidation ( I was on SAVE prior to the consolidation as well ). On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a message to MOHELA asking if my application was in process. They responded asking me to call them, and after holding for an extremely long time I was told to resubmit my application for XXXX and MOHELA would choose which XXXX plan Id be on. I resubmitted my application for IDR XX/XX/XXXX and its still listed as in review, just like the first application.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a book from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I never received the book. I purchased again in XXXX. When the book was set to arrive the second time, we followed it + found nothing upon delivery notification. No book. No delivery driver. No truck. Nobody. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX who told me to check with USPS. USPS did the same. It's always the same dance and nobody does anything. So I disputed it with my credit union like I should but they have started pushing all disputes into this gray area where they demand documentation that does not exist then deny your dispute if you don't submit anything. I would like to ask all involved parties if they have ever been sent anything from a company who couldn't even deliver the item they purchased. Navy Federal has decided that all disputes require documentation and any dispute that doesn't receive it will be denied. That's a racket. I would have liked to known I was joining the mob before I joined it. That feels XXXX and XXXX but whatever.

Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I was out of the country from XXXX XXXX when my account was compromised. There is a total of {$7100.00} worth of fraudulent transactions that were made while I was out of the country. I came back to the US and immediately contacted Chase to dispute those transactions and was constantly at the bank for hours trying to resolve my account issues. I opened a new account and closed my online access so the person who stole my money would not have access to my account anymore. I gave proof of my plane ticket and a police report because I am a victim of identity theft and that same week I had multiple credit cards opened in my name without my permission. My phone number was ported out and my email address was hacked which is how my personal information was stolen. I told chase my situation and after XXXX months of back and forth they stated that the device the transactions took place were consistent with my device. I never had XXXX XXXX with chase on my phone but they said they didnt see any fraudulent actions or alerts sent out so they cant reopen the investigation. They even decided to close my account. I have been a longtime chase customer and they have not been helpful at all. I told them that those transactions dont even match my usual shopping activity and yet they dont want to reinvestigate or reopen my claim. Below I attached pictures of the transactions made from XXXX XXXX where fraud was happening even after I returned and closed my old bank account and opened a new one. If chase looks at my previous spending I did not shop using most of these places and yet they state that it was me because of my device. Chase gave me temporary reversals only to take it back and is refusing to give me my money back.

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my ( CHANGE TO NAME OF BANK ACCOUNT ). I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

" After reviewing my consumer report, I noticed that there was still late payment on my consumer report which have never been late because the creditor failed to provide any proof or evidence so this needs to be corrected immediately to paid as agreed and never late. ( NAME OF THE COMPANY ) This account is related to a transaction and experience that falls under the EXCLUSION section of the FCRA 's definitions, rules of construction section.

This account is not related to any transaction authorized by me, the consumer as I did not give written instructions to your agency to report this, which is a violation of the permissible purpose section of the FCRA, which holds your agency ( NAME OF THE COMPANY ) name liable for damages of at least {$1000.00} per the civil liability section for willful non-compliance. Please CORRECT this item from my consumer report! According to15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports The Law clearly states : ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I clearly did not give your agency written authorization or written instructions to report this information. Your agency is conspiring with these creditors against me in committing aggravated identity theft and I have sustained defamation of my character, just to name a couple damages should this matter escalate to court. 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures- ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general if, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall -- i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
