      Dear BBB, I took out a Borrow & Grow Loan from ****** on 9/19/2022 for $3500. The loan has 2 parts: $1,000 which was deposited directly into my checking upfront & $2500 added to ****** savings that would be made available in 24 mos. when the terms of the loan were me. Monthly payments of $200 payable the 1st of each mo. I contacted ****** on 10/24 requesting restructuring of the loan due to salary reduction. They kindly modified the loan & reduced payments to $100/mo. On 12/3 ****** emailed a notice saying all Borrow & Grow Plan holders were being transferred to SST and that all terms would remain the same. This has not been the case. I called twice this week and the SST reps I spoke with are ill-informed, rude, and kept repeating over and over that my payment in the system is showing as $200. I made a $100 payment online on 12/5 as our SST account numbers were not made available until that date. I have since called ****** and a rep stated they no longer have access to Borrow & Go Plan Member account info since the loans were sold. My SST account number is: ********* I am attaching all required documents including both loan agreements (original and modified) as well as correspondence from ****** to me and me to SST. All that I am asking for SST to honor their commitment to keeping the terms the same per ******'s written correspondence (also attached). My account is now showing as delinquent in their system. I would avoid anyone to steer clear of SST as this truly has been a nightmare company to deal with. Can you please assist? Many thanks! - ****** *********

      On December 6, 2022, *** ********* contacted SST via email stating her loan terms were changed in

      affect her credit. SST’s investigation confirmed the monthly payment amount was reduced to $100.00
      and updated her account.

      The terms and conditions of the Loan Account were not changed by the transfer in servicing, and
      *** *********’s Savings Account at Cross River Bank remains open with a current balance of

      In Jan of 2022 I entered into a borrow and grow plan for 4000$ with ******* I received 2000$ upfront and 2000$ was deposited into a savings account. My payments were 160$ for 36 months. Once I paid back the 4000$ plus interest I would receive the money in the savings account. I paid my loan off on Dec 2,2022 per my contract with ****** I would have access to my savings account and could transfer the money into my bank account electronically. Well after I paid my loan off I was notified that SST had my account now I contacted them and asked when I would have access to my money in my savings account per the contract I signed it says I would receive my money in 7 days via bank transfer. SST is now telling me I have to wait 30 days to have a checked mailed to me I never signed a contract with SST haven’t seen any documentation from SST stating there rules or policies jus was told by a representative it would take 30 days by mail to receive my money. I think they are holding my money hostage to collect the interest. It’s my money release if I held up to my obligation per the contract.

      I had a borrow and grow plan with ****** and I paid it off a week ago. Paying off that loan in full was supposed unlock my savings of 2,500 that I was supposed to be able to withdraw yesterday per an email I received from a ****** rep. Over the weekend I logged into check the status of my savings and everything was gone and there was a statement on ******'s website saying that the borrow and grow loans were now being serviced by SST. I was on the phone and on hold with SST first thing yesterday morning trying to find the 2,500 that is rightfully mine and they didnt formally have a record of it. I was told I had to wait 10 days from the time the loan was paid and that I can email documentation from my bank to show it was taken out of my checking. The company was also supposed to email a new account number to log into their site based on ******a letter and I never received that either. I sent in all of my documentation and haven't heard anything back. The savings is rightfully mine and I'm not getting any status of where that money is or when I will have access to it. The transition to SST and SSTs lack of knowing what is going on with customers from ****** is concerning.

      purchase a 2018 Kaufman W50 Black Cargo Trailer. According to the Contract, Ms. ****** agreed to

      Account was transferred to SST to service and a welcome letter was sent to advise of the transfer.

      Ms. ****** made her monthly payments until her last online payment on December 9, 2019 in the
      amount of $427.88, bringing the Account current for the December 26, 2019.

      On February 21, 2020, SST began the repossession process due to Ms. ******** representation that the
      trailer was in jeopardy as it was in possession of a third-party who refused to return it. Ms. ****** gave
      the last known location of the cargo trailer for SST to recover. Unfortunately, as of this date, SST has
      been unable to find and recover the trailer.

      On April 30, 2020, Ms. ******** Account charged-off due to it being 127 days past due with a balance

      SST reports accurate information to the three major credit bureaus -- ********* ******** *** ***** *****

      I took out a loan for $1300, payed about $50 a week totaling around $500. I didn’t realize they started failing and I didn’t know this was occurring until I got a letter in my email. I tried emailing and can not get a response. I have sent in writing that I want to make a payment multiple times. I am hard of hearing so cannot talk on the phone and am getting very frustrated trying to take care of this matter as I do not want a derogatory account showing up on my credit. I cannot make a payment online without calling. It is saying I need to pay $860 to get this current or $1872 to pay this off. I would like to set up a payment plan of some sort to settle this debt.

      Services Technologies, Inc. (SST) as servicer on the Account on March 28, 2022, and a welcome letter
      was sent to advise of transfer.

      Ms. ****** was set up on Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) for her weekly payments of $51.29 until
      June 28, 2022, at which time EFT was cancelled as two or more payments were returned because of
      insufficient funds. NSF letters were sent to Ms. ****** to advise of the returned payments.

      SST tried to reach out to Ms. ****** on several occasions via phone, letters, and text messages to
      advise of her Account status with no response from her.

      As of October 5, 2022, Ms. ******** Account is 124 days past due for the June 3, 2022 payment. The
      total amount due is $1,014.51 which includes current due of $51.29, past due of $923.22, late charges
      of $20.00 and NSF fees of $20.00. The last payment received from Ms. ****** was on June 24, 2022

      November 1, 2016. In 2019, ******* ******** ceased operations and transferred its Accounts
      Receivable, including that of ***** *****, to ******* ***** *****, who, on August 10, 2019, placed the
      Account with SST as the servicer.

      Our records indicate that Mr. *****’ Account charged off on August 31, 2019, due to the Account
      being five months past due and was assigned out for collections.

      SST had no contact with Mr. ***** regarding his Account during the time SST serviced the loan.

      On September 1, 2020, Mr. *****’ Account was Servicing Released to ********* ******* ******** ***
      who can be contacted by phone at ************.

      SST received several disputes from Mr. ***** via E-Oscar disputing the Account and claiming fraud
      after the Account was servicing released. SST responded to Mr. *****’ disputes reflecting the Account
      had been serviced released and verified Account was reporting correctly to the credit bureaus. SST
      sent letters to Mr. ***** advising SST received his fraud allegation and to advise that SST was no
      longer servicing the Account.

      If Mr. ***** has any further questions or concerns, he may contact SST Customer Service directly at
      ***** *********

      I worked with a company that had a partnership with a company called ***********. I had positive experiences with ** and so because of this when the young lady who was a rep there came in I asked her about something I received in the mail in November from them about loans. She and ***** bounced back and forth as our rep. She explained the process to me and in January I asked her to finally help me sign up, the week of January 10th 2022. I asked her what the interest would be. She looked over my offer bc I didn’t understand it and she said it was 16% and you had 90 days to pay it out same as cash plus an additional 50 fee. Similar to the other flex program. I said no problem. She had me fill in my info on my phone and She helped finish the rest bc I’m not really familiar with how to do this type of stuff. But we were moving and so it seemed like it would be helpful to move and not be tight. 2100 was funded I’m assuming through SST. I didn’t get a choice in the financier as far as I know. She just told me I got approved told me those terms and had me enter my bank info for the rest. I’m expecting to pay back 2436. After making payments weekly of 83.15$ I called in April to pay the remaining 1488, I had paid 997.80 into it. out and was told the interest was 165%! That’s $3000 more than what I borrowed! If I knew that I wouldn’t have even signed up! When I called sst to discuss it, they said I signed it and there was nothing I could do. I explained I got help from a rep I didn’t get to even fully read it! It was misleading! I asked to speak to a supervisor. one had to call me back and it took him almost 3 days to do so. But fine. I offered the 1488 I had and he had an attitude and told me no. I Asked for their own settlement offer. No luck.I attempted to call FS back about the rep, she’s no longer with the company, there is nothing they can do. To date; I’ve paid 1663. I just want to be contacted to reach a settlement amount bc I don’t want this effecting my credit.

      We appreciate the opportunity to respond to the above-referenced complaint your office brought to our
      attention. Systems and Services Technologies, Inc. (“SST”) is a loan servicing and payment processing
      company that is committed to resolving customer service issues in a cooperative and expeditious manner.
      We are sorry to hear about ****** *******’ recent unsatisfactory experience with us and make every
      reasonable effort to resolve customer complaints in a timely manner whenever reasonably practical.

      We’ve completed our initial review of the account in question and found the following:

      On January 12, 2022, ****** ******* signed an Installment Loan Agreement (“the Contract”) financing
      $2,107.70, with an interest rate of 164.9982%. Customers are required to read and scroll through the
      Loan Agreement setting forth the loan terms (i.e. the interest rate, total finance charges, number of
      weekly payments and amounts, before they are able to electronically sign the Loan Agreement. Truth
      in Lending Act Disclosures state that: the Annual Percentage Rate will be 164.9982%; the Finance
      Charges will be $2,216.27; the Amount Financed is $2,107.70; and the Total Amount of Payments will
      be $4,323.97. According to the Contract, Mr. ******* agreed to make 52 monthly payments of $83.15,
      beginning on January 19, 2022. On January 12, 2022, ************** ******** **** ***** *** ****
      through ***********, LLC placed the Account with SST as the servicer, at which time, Mr. *******
      received a welcome call advising that funds would be available within 72 hours. He asked about an
      early payoff option and was informed he may pay it off early which would reduce the total interest
      paid for the loan.

      His Account was originally set up for weekly automatic draft payments until February 10, 2022, when
      he began making payments on the website with his debit card.

      On March 30, 2022, Mr. ******* called SST and spoke with an SST agent requesting to speak with a
      manager or supervisor about his interest rate. The agent advised what the interest rate was on his contract
      and that SST was unable to change it. A supervisor tried to reach Mr. ******* on March 31st but spoke
      with his husband who advised he was not available and to try back Monday.

      On April 7, 2022, an SST supervisor made a second attempt to reach Mr. ******* and again spoke with
      his husband again and was advised Mr. ******* was not available. Mr. *******’ husband advised best time
      to reach him would be on the weekends. The supervisor advised she would like to speak with him
      personally and was advised to call back on Monday.

      SST did continue to make contact attempts via phone and letters due to the account being past due.

      As of September 1, 2022, Mr. *******’ account is 78 days past due for the June 15, 2022 payment. The
      total due amount is $1,042.80, which includes current due of $83.15, past due of $914.65 and late charges
      of $45.00. The last payment received by Mr. ******* was on June 22, 2022, in the amount of $83.15
      made via web pay at accountinfo.com.

      SST will reach out to the customer in an effort to work out a payment arrangement, in the meantime,
      the Lender will expect the customer to abide by obligations and terms of the Loan Agreement.

      If Mr. ******* has any further questions or concerns, he may contact SST Customer Service directly at
      ***** *********
