Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem accessing account

Consumer Complaint: Basic lee I had some one who had hacked into my navy federal credit Union on line access or profile multiple times. And I have tried the keep the person out and navy federal credit union had froze my on line access then said that it was beyond there risk acceptance. But I dont think that it was fair to me because they have issues keeping people out of there systems and keeping them secure. Then some one tried to take out a personal experience loan in my name. Then there was multiple devices on my account from the person who tried to access my accounts from navy federal credit Union.

Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Application denied

Consumer Complaint: Today, XXXX XXXXXXXX Day, I contacted Navy Federal Credit Union to discuss my credit card rewards and a new application. The person who picked up had no idea how the rewards work and he was part of the Credit Card team. Repeatedly he gave me the wrong guidance on the program and mis-directed me on the web site. I then asked him about application XXXX which denied me an additional card. He said it was because I only make {$10000.00} a year. I told him I make much more than that and he said well that's what I put in the application. I explained that every time I apply for a mortgage, auto loan or some product NFCU just screws it up and never grants it. They have my true salary and also get direct deposits from my employer 2 times a month. They have all my information and my FICO score is XXXX. So this XXXX tells me that I put that value on the web site and I had to tell him 5 times that i did not. He said well we dont have access. I corrected him and said of course you have access to the application, the database and all components. i requested an audit and to speak with the Fraud Department. He refused to transfer me to either group. Meanwhile it impacts my credit by NFCU always running my credit score and then not providing a product.

Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Changes in terms mid-deal or after closing

Consumer Complaint: I got quoted at 5 % interest by a representative at NFCU for my car loan for a new car. I stressed to them that Im new to this and have no idea how the process goes and asked that nothing will change over the course of me buying the car they reassured me. ( I also work out the numbers in front of the rep for the payments and she sits there and doesnt tell me about how the interest is ROLLING interest. Had no idea what that was until after I called to complain about my insanely high interest rate. ) So I go and but the car, the dealership continued to finalize the deal with my bank ( Navy Federal Credit XXXX ) and Im not sure if it was the dealership or NFCU, but someone withheld information. I get home with the car and about a week and a half later I see a notification in my bank app saying Im sitting on 12 % interest. I called and asked why they said the car isnt new Yet I wasnt told what qualifies a car as new, I ask to have the number brought down to a reasonable percentage and they decline. I tell them Im looking for a house and this is making it hard for me to even consider them for that loan then all of a sudden they can do something about the loan. Theyll give me a better rate. At that point I knew something was up. They were running my pockets to bring their company back on its feet after covid hit by giving me false hope. I confirmed it when I went and ran the loan calculator with my cars vin number on their website. It came up to 6 %. The car already started depreciating and I knew Ive already been down a couple thousands on top of closing fees and insurances i bought for the car. it would have been a huge waste of money if I just brought it back. I need help. Its just crazy how my credit score of XXXX points shy of XXXX landed me in a 12 % interest pool.

Issue: Fraud or scam

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I am the victim of a scam using XXXX. I contacted navy federal who I used XXXX to send the money to what ended up being a scam. I have a phone log with the representative of the company. Once the {$1000.00} was sent the scammer was gone and the phone calls and emails went unanswered. XXXX said there is nothing they can do although they are aware of these types of scams. The representative gave me his name email and phone number. I felt comfortable because I thought it was backed by my bank and in the banks app. Neither Navy Federal or XXXX offer any protection. Banks are not doing anything to help victims of these scams. I was trying to purchase a dog for my son. Please help me!
