      Im not a customer.  Im not signing anything with a company i dont do business with.  Probably best they just delete my fake account and not contact me.  

      Furthermore.  I dont appreciate their negative attacks on the loan forgiveness plans and holidays.  Quit complaining about it.  Now I know I wont do business with them.

      I have never had any type of transaction, and I do not have any account, whatsoever with this company. However, in the last 2 days I have received emails about changes to the terms and conditions of my debit card (which I do not have with SoFi), followed by an apology email about sending me an erroneous email.Followed AGAIN today with a message to log into my SoFi account to receive a message. Again, I have no account with this company, and will never have any relationship with them.

      I applied to SoFi for a student loan refinance option. I was rejected after sending in basic information. After that I requested my information / account to be closed. I was assured my information would not be used for anything. For years afterwards I have received emails about various products that I don't own. Today I got one regarding "Notice of changes to your SoFi Money Debit Card". The email is legitimate. This happened last year regarding a "Important information regarding your SoFi Active Invest account" that I also don't own. I do not do any business with SoFi, yet they still retain my information and still send me emails, even after contacting them multiple times and being told that I would no longer receive any communications.

      I am rejecting this response because: I never received a disclosure consent for they're talking about. What would I even be signing? Furthermore, if they're trying to say my information is for them to use, I still don't own the accounts they're sending me emails for.

      I am rejecting this response because: "We are reviewing the customers concerns and sending a response directly to the customer with a disclosure consent form. Upon receipt of the signed disclosure consent form from the consumer, we will forward a copy of the response to your office."

      I have not received any such consent form. I don't know where they are sending it.

      SoFi has contacted me by email regarding a debit card account that I never set up. I have no financial relationship with SoFi. SoFi customer service was unable to address this problem. I wish for SoFi to immediately and permanently delete all personal information connected to me and to remove me from their marketing, solicitation, and advertising databases.

      I received a notification that my SOFI Debit card was changing banks - the problem is I never requested nor received a SOFI Debit card. I went to the SOFI website and found an account under my email address using the forgot password link. It is a shell of an account with no information beyond name and email but I did not sign up for this. I attempted to use chat and was told to call. I tried to call and was given a pre-recorded "thank you for the call all agents are busy and not time for you" type message before being disconnected. I am trying to ascertain if my identity has been compromised and if there is a debit card with my name floating around that I did not sign up for but there is no way to contact this supposed reputable company about it.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me if incomplete.  I did receive communication from the business but no disclosure form as they stated they would provide.  In addition, I had to connect to you to get a response as they have a non-existence customer support program.  While I accept I would like to public ask that the company do better!

      Sofi is sending me notifications via email for accounts that I do not have. I have made multiple requests to be removed from their contact list. None of them have been addressed.I have never been a customer. I inquired about financial products and now cannot stop them from contacting me. The emails they send me are for customers, which I am not.There is no possible way to get support without being a customer. I cannot access online support without logging into their customer site. Calling the telephone support as a non-customer leads to a dead end. There is no option within the emails for me to unsubscribe.

      I am rejecting this response because:  I received a letter in the mail from SoFi stating that my profile has been deleted but that I am still opted IN to marketing emails. There is no mechanism for me to stop receiving emails from SoFi.

      I was never a customer. I checked the interest rate offered for a personal loan. In order to do this, I had to provide my email address. I sincerely regret doing this now that I know it is not possible to ever get SoFi to stop contacting me.

      I received an email from a company called Sofi stating that I had changes to my debit card and that the bank name was changing. I've never heard of this company nor do I have any cards or affiliation with them. I looked up their website and am trying to reach a non existent customer service..."there are **************** line ahead of you" message over and over again. Clearly this place is some kind of illegitimate and unprofessional site. I want to know if a fraudulent account was opened under my name, have it closed, any and all info deleted, police report filed.

      Complaint: 19493763

      I am rejecting this response because:

      SoFi sent me an email stating that I received their email in error but that my info wasn't there to erase.  I do not believe this since they used my info they got from somewhere, other than myself.  This has also been a complaint by many other individuals over a period of months so it seems to be a pattern rather than a mistake.  I want my info removed and SoFi held accountable so that they STOP doing this to random citizens and getting away with "I'm sorry" emails.  There also is ZERO customer service which is unacceptable.

      I applied for a personal loan through Sofi and was denied. Months later I receive an email stating that they've had a data breach and my password/login information has been compromised. I don't have any active account with Sofi so I called to see if they could remove my information from their system. I was told that even though I have no active account with them they can only deactivate my account rather then delete my information.
