Issue: Struggling to pay your bill

Subissue: Credit card company won't work with you while you're going through financial hardship

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX my payroll distribution put {$1100.00} in my Navy Federal Credit Union account. The bank automatically transferred the money to three delinquent credit card that is a part of my bankruptcy filing. I notified NFCU in XXXX of the bankruptcy and provided them with my attorney 's information. I contacted Navy Federal in XXXX to see if I would be about to us my accounts again and was told the savings account was active, but I was not longer eligible for checking account. My husband is now unemployed due to the COVID 19 crisis, and has yet to receive unemployment benefits. So I wanted to preserve our money in another account since the stimulus payment went into our checking account. Afraid to got in a bank or use an ATM, I adjusted my payroll to direct deposit the money to saving for hardship. With all of the waivers on interest and debt due to this crisis the bank should have notified me that this would happen before they took my money. Especially since they are aware of the pending bankruptcy. I'm not sure of my recourse to receive some or all of my money back, but there should be prohibited at this time. I work in billing and buy law I can not charge interest, penalties, tax liens etc at this time. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Consumer Complaint: XXXX granted me a forbearance on my mortgage and credit card, XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Unlike the agreement I understood when I applied for this forbearance, They are reporting to the credit agencies. My credit report shows increased balances on both my mortgage and a credit card ( s ) including my other accounts with other lenders. My FICO score has been reduced because of this. Not only has my work stopped because of this government nightmare Covid 19, but my credit score that I have worked so hard to build is hitting the bricks. The credit bureaus should not be allowed to record any increase in balances! This is true for my credit cards at XXXX XXXX, Navy Federal ( where I am also in the process of receiving a refinancing of my mortgage ), XXXX XXXX Credit card, XXXX 's. Please tell me who else I can write to and if there is a class action suit in process that I can join? Big banks have no right to manipulate with the credit status of individuals who are affected by a global pandemic. Who is in charge of this regulation on a Federal level? Please send me the name of the agency, and email address I can write to to file this complaint in addition to you. Thank you.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: My husband and I applied for a VA mortgage refinance through Navy federal Credit Union on XX/XX/XXXX. My husband and I wanted to take advantage of the lower rates given all of the economic uncertainty created by the pandemic. After we applied we promptly submitted all paperwork by XX/XX/XXXX and were told to await processing but that it could be up to 6 months due to high application volume. I called again XX/XX/XXXX to ensure they had everything they needed from us and see if there were any updates on our application. They had no updates for me and told me to continue to wait patiently. I had our fourth baby XX/XX/XXXX. So, I didnt call again and continued to wait until XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called to check on the status and was told our application was denied because they found no mortgage even though my submitted paperwork was still in processing according to their system. We also never received one call or letter from their loan processing department. The representative I spoke to couldnt make any sense of this and said he had never seen something like this before. He connected me to the loan processors voicemail so I could leave a message but he was unable to provide me any further details. I left her a message and waited a week but received no call back. I called again today, XX/XX/XXXX to which I got the same information and was transferred to her voicemail again. I spent over 40 minutes on the phone trying to get someone who could give me any answers today. Im now waiting for another call back that Im not expecting to actually receive. Considering the current economic climate and the ongoing pandemic we are relying on this application to be honored and processed correctly. We had a locked in rate from XX/XX/XXXX that we need honored. We 100 % qualify for this refinance and would like Navy Federal to do their job correctly and stand by veterans, especially during this unprecedented time. Could you please look into this for us and help us?

Issue: Managing an account

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased two televisions from someone on XXXX! I did not know the person so I used XXXX XXXX to protect myself! I met with the man at a public place, I paid him {$390.00} for two televisions and when I returned home neither of them worked. I immediately contacted Navy Federal to file a dispute. Two days ago I was sent an e-mail saying the amount never posted so there was nothing they could do, which was not true because you can clearly see the charge on my account! Today I get an e-mail stating they can can not comple the dispute, I must contact the person for a refund!! If I was able to contact the person for a refund I would not have had to file a dispute!! I am not going to sit back in a PANDEMIC and let you all steal money from me!!! Where is the consumer protection???? What is the point of you having a dispute department if you can not give people UNAUTHORIZED funds back!!! GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!!!!

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I used my Navy Federal Credit Union Visa card to get a Logo design from XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$59.00}. The company never designed the logo and stop responding my emails even after I was told by one of the " Account managers '' the refund was not going to be an issue. Everytime I contact their online support, I'm told I was going to get a call back. Never get one. Since XXXX XXXX Stop responding, I filed a dispute with NFCU. After more than a month they denied my request because the merchant said they give me the service. That was not true, I gave NFCU email and text copies of my conversation with XXXX XXXX which showed they are not responding to me. I also requested copy of evidence from the merchant provide but was denied. I requested a second review and NFCU will not reopen the case unless I have a written notice from XXXX XXXX that a refund is due. To me this makes no sense. I tried to resolve the issue ( my order was not deliver ) with the merchant and they stop responding. NFCU won't help with the disputed even when this disputed qualify for Fair Credit Billing Act and claims and defenses process because I never go my order and the merchant won't work to resolve the issue.
