Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan

Bank in California. When my son went to pay off his loan in full, the bank told him he was two months behind. He paid it, but our records showed he was only one month behind and he was on autodraft. This Bank really should be audited, they made him a charge off two weeks before any missed payment, to collect more money in federal funds I assume, but he was paying monthly on auto draft so how could be be considered a bad debt? They insisted he use some new account number and locked my online sign-in so I would have to create a new account to access banking information. We didn't do that, because it seemed shady as we were at the end of our loan term. He is paid in full well over, including an added cost to keep the puppy, like he was from a rent-a-dog.
