I have gone through a lot to get this transferred, and if I am not going to get credit for the waiver, I could have left my loan with my current servicer, so any clarity you can provide would be great. I appreciate your time. I was told back in XXXX that this would take 90 days from the date that the PSLF application was processed. My original PSLF was processed on the XX/XX/XXXX application for the waiver, so my question is, when will my application/waiver be processed, and how long will it take for my count to reflect the payments I made with my original servicer before consolidation?

Complaint narrative:
I first spoke to a representative of First Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX being applied to my credit card account because I was going on XXXX. I was given an email on XX/XX/XXXX by the rep to send out I sent it out that day and didnt hear back in two weeks so I called and sent it twice again another two weeks or so I didnt hear anything at all from this company who promised me on the phone thats all I had to do. So on XXXX XXXX I stepped foot in First Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX. The young woman that helped me was very helpful she double checked the system for my orders and didnt see anything so she proceeded to call and the person over the phone that she contacted told me that the following Tuesday I would be good to go. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and the only notification Ive been getting is added charges to my account. When I was on the phone with these reps Ive called several times I told them I would be able to pay my account down when I get on my orders. Instead this company completely disregarded my orders and me reaching out to them. I have attached pictures with stamped dates for when I received the email from the first phone call to my messages between the two last reps. Please help with youre assistance. Im already XXXX and Ive taken care of every business aspect of my life except this one because they constantly have me running around. I also attached the last payment I made this month you can see that they are STILL charging me late fees and the attachment from XXXX XXXX report of them closing my account out AFTER I sent in these orders and reached out to them several times! This is unethical practice and this company needs to be held accountable for their negligence. Thank you in advance.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing this complaint because I was notified via mail of an XXXXXXXX XXXX account that has been placed into collection. This account and debt do NOT belong to me and are a result of identity theft! There are many inaccuracies in the information on the account in question. My name, the account was used at an address that I have never lived in or been associated with, the email address on file does not belong to me, and I have not physically lived in XXXX or rented or owned an apartment or home since XXXX. My parents have lived in the same house all my life and their address is not the one where the XXXX account was used. I have NEVER had any services with XXXX. As a matter of fact, back in XXXX I was a victim of identity theft and had to dispute a previous XXXX account that was opened using my identity. That dispute was successful. I have reached out to XXXX who is both the original and current creditor, but all attempts at having this account removed have been unsuccessful. I have also reached out to I.C. System Inc to dispute the ownership and inaccuracies of this account with no result. I have attempted to have this resolved many times since first being notified of its existence almost 3 years ago.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB Team, I am writing to submit a complaint regarding the permanent limitation placed on my PayPal account, which I believe was a mistake. I respectfully request that you re-investigate my case and restore my account if possible. 

Firstly, I would like to clarify that I have not violated any PayPal policies or engaged in any activity that would warrant a permanent limitation on my account. I have always used my account in accordance with the terms and conditions of PayPal, and I have never engaged in any fraudulent or unauthorized activity. 

Secondly, I believe that this limitation was placed on my account due to a misunderstanding or error on PayPal 's part. I have not received any communication from PayPal regarding the reason for the limitation, and I am not aware of any suspicious activity or violation of policies on my account. 

As a loyal customer of PayPal, I strongly believe that the limitation placed on my account is unjustified and is causing me undue hardship. I am unable to access my funds, make payments or receive payments, which has caused significant inconvenience and financial loss. 

Therefore, I kindly request that PayPal re-investigate my case and restore my account if possible. I am willing to provide any additional information or documentation that may be required to resolve this matter. 

Finally, I would like to confirm that the email address associated with my PayPal account is XXXX Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a prompt resolution of this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
