Consumer Loan Title loan

Complaint #1343263 submitted on 04/23/2015 relating to U.S. Bancorp. Complaint relates to Consumer Loan Title loan - Payment to acct not credited .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Thursday 30th April 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

I purchased an RV through US Bank. The payments of {$340.00} initiated on XX/XX/XXXX. Approximately XXXX weeks prior to the due date XXXX of each month I would go into the main US Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX WA and submit my check that also included an additional principle payment- from XXXX XXXX XXXX. On my check I would note that this payment was for Principle only. The last several months I started to receive my statements that would say I had a past due amount ( for {$200.00} ) ; thus adding it to my normal payment. I went in and they said they would fix it - but the following month there again was another past due amount of XXXX. I actually got a call last Friday the XXXX from a bank collector looking to have me submit the past due payment.
Any borderline teller should be able to bring up my account and see that all along I 've been making my regular payment plus added principle. When I had this XXXX min conversation I was transferred to another employee ; who in speaking with them ask about a couple of statements that I received ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) that I had a XXXX amount due so I wrote {$400.00}. towards principle only and was told that those payments really did n't all go towards the principle that some went to future payments -paying interest. When I ask for a print out of all payments I made she told me I would be charged a fee for this. Really! I was told the situation was change and the past due was taken care of-when I went to the bank today it still had a past due of XXXX on my account.
My main concern is if this is happening to me ( a senior citizen ) how many unsuspecting people world wide that do n't check their monthly statements are they doing this to.
I had similar issues with my mortgage for several months. They were not applying my full principle payment to my principle but taking out and applying to my interest-as if I would give them free money. So over all, this has gone on for many months-despite my telling them that I will seek out further investigation. I got insulted when the folks that called me said it was the front line teller that was causing the problems. I know they go into their computer templates and place the payments in the appropriate boxs. I have most of my statements and my check register noting days of payments with check numbers and how much additional principle made. I 'm really tired of hearing I 'm sorry -I think/believe there should be an outside audit run on their procedures and if found at fault-upper management lose their jobs. This is very stressful for me- I work in a VERY High stress work field ( XXXX ) I really do n't need to constantly monitor and call attention to inappropriate bookkeeping from professionals. I believe XXXX financial got nipped for doing something like this.
Thank you.
