Consumer complaint: As described in the previous complaint, which was against the CRA itself, it is impossible for me to have XXXX hard inquires waiting weeks apart earlier this year. As explained, Citibank XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, SD XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX was notified of this error in multiple letters and a phone call. Apparently, Citi thought that a letter or a phone call meant that I wanted another hard inquiry done, which I never gave them permission to do so. It is absurd to think that I would expect a different result within weeks, I merely sent a letter asking for application status, and phoned to also discuss the application and if they received my letter. Because of a possible language barrier, it appears that the citibank customer service agent simply would try to run another hard inquiry. It appears that during this time frame of only a few weeks, my credit score dropped XXXX points. Furthermore, until this is corrected, I can not apply for additional credit with anyone in fear that they will look at these XXXX erroneous requests as a desperate attempt to get credit, probably to be denied and to make the situation worse.

Consumer complaint: My husband and I had a checking account with Regions bank from around XXXX and during that time we found that the bank would change the order of our transactions until they were listed in a way that we would overdraft our account multiple times instead of the XXXX overdraft that should have occurred. Sometimes there would have been no overdraft fee at all according to their policy bc it would 've been under {$5.00} but after the transactions were rearranged there would be multiple overdrafts. Over the span of time we had this account we were charged thousands of dollars in overdraft fees because of them rearranging the transactions. We have recently found out that this practice is illegal and that regions bank has been fined for illegal overdraft fees. What can be done about our case? We quit using our account and now my husband has a debt collection against his credit as we refused to pay anymore of their bogus fees. Our debt to them stands as proof of the amount we were being charged in fees at XXXX time. Please help us

Consumer complaint: US Bank/US Bank Home Mortgage has been unwilling to work with me to modify the terms of my home loan. I have consistently submitted all paperwork requested, all to no avail. They constantly lose the documents I send ; send correspondence from all over the United States ( oftentimes, not to me ) ; no one can give me a status, stating instead that I am in " underwriting. '' You often do not get to speak with the same individual so you are made to feel like you are running in circles. I have been dealing with their unprofessionalism and do not care attitude since XX/XX/XXXX. It should not take 5 years to do a simple loan modification. I have explained to them that we are upside down on our mortgage, I have been unemployed since XX/XX/XXXX, and that my husband is a United States Veteran. I still can not and have not received any relief or any clear indication of what exactly it is they need from me.

Consumer complaint: XX/XX/XXXX I applied to Bank of America for refinancing of home due to scamming by current mortgage holder.  XX/XX/XXXX house was appraised; appraised value approximately $40,000 less than comparables.  Made written complaint to BOA and multiple phone 
calls.  Only responses came from local mortgage loan officer who had to get update from someone else.  XXXX day he was not there and was told previous Thursday was his last day on job.  Since, received XXXX return phone calls but no others although I tried to get updates.  I was told to NOT pay previous mortgage in XX/XX/XXXX. but in XX/XX/XXXX. paid because I was three months overdue.  Still no response from BOA as to current status of initial application.  In XX/XX/XXXX. was finally told application was cancelled because of concern over appraisal.  Offered to reapply which I accepted.  Finally closed in mid-XX/XX/XXXX.  Before re-fi- application had HELOC which was rolled into re-fi amount.  After closing in XX/XX/XXXX. I received appraisal "drive-by" update upholding original appraisal but limited MLS inquiry to houses sold to max of $100.000 since date of original appraisal.  Three weeks after original appraisal, house XXXX with initial identical floor sold for $40,000 more than the appraisal of my house.  As after initial appraisal I made complaint to XXXX which denied any action.  Soon after closing on re-fi
 BOA re-applied for HELOC and was denied for # of delinquent accounts, proportion of balance to limit on revolving accts, too many inquiries in last 12 months, and insufficient length of revolving credit history.  Report dated XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX credit agencies shows
XXXX, XXXX, XXXX but another document shows XXXX for credit score.  Current report shows XXXX acct--XXXX of which have current activity.  Others have been paid off.  No. of  inquiries were elevated due primarily to activity related to re-fi and HELOC activity and  
one emergency home repair.  History reported goes back as far as XX/XX/XXXX.  I don't know where they came up with their conclusions.  I am satisfied with the ultimate re-financing but not with the hassles I had to go through to get to that point which had a deleterious effect on my health during this time.  I had to talk to too many different people to find out what was going on only to get no response.  Then to get this fabricated denial of my HELOC application was a "low blow."  I think it all revolves around the falsified appraisal.

Consumer complaint: XXXX and XXXX XXXX re-aging another account that was reported and removed from my account long ago. It is now showing up as a new collections account as of XXXX XXXX, 2015 from XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$600.00}. 
I had a Bank of America account and I closed the account because they were repeatedly making it look as if I was debited the account with no funds. I wrote many times not to allow my account to be charged with no funds in the account. I would have money showing in the account and when I used it I would get over-limit fees and other fees until they charged up to over {$600.00}. I had close all my accounts with them and refused to pay because I know I did not use the card. I even closed a money market account and a few months later the bank reopened it and started to charge me fees on it. I had to let them know I had taken my money out of their bank and they had no right to reopen the account. 
This bank took money from me for charges I did not make.

Consumer complaint: A merchant made a fraudulent charge on my Sears MasterCard ( Citibank ) in XXXX 2014. I tried for several months to resolve the issue directly with the merchant. I had continued with these attempts, as the merchant acknowledged the error verbally and led me to believe I would be reimbursed. Ultimately, they did not follow through with their promise. I then contacted my credit card company by writing a dispute. Upon receiving their response stating I had not contacted them in a timely manner, I contacted the credit card company by phone to understand why they were not taking further action. I was told that my contact with them fell just outside of their policy for reporting billing errors by a matter of a few days, therefore they would not be taking further action. It was recommended that I submit a complaint through the Better Business Bureau and a XXXX other suggestions for recourse were provided. I have since submitted my complaint to he BBB, with so far no response by the merchant. I have also submitted a XXXX plea to the credit card company through secure mail within my online account. They replied letting me know they have no recourse to recover my funds outside of 60 days. I have been a cardholder with them for 18 years with no other transaction disputes. I am asking for their assistance with resolving the fraudulent charge made to my card and associated interest charges.

Consumer complaint: I sent my dispute by mail XXXX, 2015 because I 'm a XXXX and my work schedule does n't allow me to be home so that I can call and speak with a live representative. There are some inaccurate marks on my credit report that I requested Experian to investigate. Today I get this letter which I have attached to this complaint stating that they have not initiated an investigation due to the fact that they think it is coming from a fraudulent source. That 's not true. Because of their lack of care and professionalism they have allowed this harmful information to remain on my credit report. People do mail requests for disputes sometimes when they ca n't call or when they ca n't access their credit report online to start an investigation which is the case for Experian. I now have suffered from inaccurate info for 30 days and can expect at least another 30 to 45 days thanks to Experian. Not investigating a consumer 's dispute is a clear cut violation of my rights and under the FCRA. Please look into this company deceptive practices and help me to resolve this matter quickly and efficiently. Thank You.

Consumer complaint: The loan company, Flagship Credit Acceptance, has been asked in writing more than XXXX, and on the phone more than XXXX to cease from calling me at my place of employment as it is not allowed. 
They continue to ignore this request/demand and have called here again today, giving XXXX of my co-workers a snide attitude. 
I have asked them in writing to stop harassing my friends and family members as well to no avail. After a certain amount of tie goes by, they seem to feel justified to call my work and other contacts. 
This loan is up to date and the payment they are starting to harass me over is only a few days late. 
I have had enough with this company 's bad business practices and judging from other complaints I have read, I am not alone. 

Company response: Company believes complaint represents an opportunity for improvement to better serve consumers

She merely stated that it came from XXXX XXXX, and Identified herself as from " NRS. '' I asked her to send debt verification to my address, and she said they would be sending me a court summons. Once again, I never verified anything but my name.

Consumer complaint: 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.

Consumer complaint: Hello, I purchased my condo with a US Bank loan back in XX/XX/XXXX. I refinanced my loan through them earlier this yr. because my current financial situation is n't very good. The bank performed VERY poorly & caused me PLENTY of distress. 
I spoke with Mortgage Loan Processor XXXX XXXX the week of XX/XX/XXXX & our conversation was recorded by US Bank. She told me my line of credit would need to be frozen to go through with the loan so I said OK & asked when will the line be frozen, she said after the loan is completed. 
I attempted to draw on the line XX/XX/XXXX ( via check # XXXX ) & it did n't go through because the line had already been frozen. I discovered this on Mon., XXXX XXXX & my Refi. loan HAD NOT been completed yet. As I needed the $ $ to cover withdraws from my checking account I immediately envisioned checks not clearing, insufficient funds to cover my mortgage, my refi. not going through & my credit rating going down the toilet. ( I 've been very careful & prudent for many yrs. to keep my FICO score very high. ) As of today, XXXX XXXX, the bank has chosen to largely be silent about my troubles even though they know they 're guilty. 
Thank you, XXXX
