Consumer complaint: I was a long time Bank of America customer. I closed my account because they have no branches in my current state ( UT ). After having paid in full, I closed my accounts and moved. My now closed account was charged by an annual subscription to XXXX that I was unaware of. They accepted the charge to my closed account and I did n't pay because I had no further relationship with BoA. I went to apply for a home loan and was told this delinquent payment existed. I immediately paid it in full, however they have refused to remove either the charge or the delinquent statement from my credit. Their mistake will cost me thousands of dollars on my home loan and I do not know what to do. They have been absolutely unreasonable and though the individuals I have dealt with have been sympathetic it comes down to this : I can never full end my relationship with BoA. I now how to watch them for years to come ...

Consumer complaint: I received a letter from Trans Union stating that I had signed up for a service with them. I contacted customer service to access this account that I supposedly had opened. Upon doing this, I discovered that someone had opened an account with what I assume is a fraudulent card, at an address I had never used, and took a copy of my credit report. Upon closing the account, I requested that my account be completely locked so that nobody can access it. I was told that it would be, but that they would not send me an email confirmation, and would not send a letter confirmation. He said that in essence I had to take him at his word.

Consumer complaint: We started the home buying process XXXX 2015. The home we were buying was to close on XXXX XXXX, 2015. We had some trouble with VA underwriting and ended up closing on XXXX XXXX, 2015. My husband and I signed all closing docs on XXXX XXXX, 2015 at North American Title. Our sellers and agent picked the title company. We had never used them before. On page XXXX of XXXX of the residential purchase agreement the seller was to pay all HOA fees. We also asked for a home warranty up to {$750.00}. The sellers agreed and signed. The sellers were represented by XXXX XXXX XXXX. Everything was signed and agreed upon before we signed the closing docs. On XXXX XXXX XXXX our agent XXXX XXXX contacted us stating that the sellers/ relo company refused to pay the HOA fees totaling {$220.00}. The sellers agent, XXXX XXXX of Simply XXXX, stated if we did n't sign that she had XXXX other agents waiting for the house to fall out of escrow. We had no other choice, being under duress, but to pay the fees. Our agent reached out to the relocation company to get reimbursement and they refused. XXXX then contacted title who stated XXXX XXXX should have paid the fees. In e-mails between North American Title and Allegiance Relo we found out that North American Title had changed the docs after we had signed them. The sellers were to pay the fees yet someone in title had crossed out seller and written buyer unbeknown to us! There are e-mails between XXXX XXXX at North American Title and XXXX at XXXX that were XXXX to us. We have yet to get any documentation on our home warranty policy as well.

Consumer complaint: Hopefully, I have chosen the right avenue to lodge this complaint. On XXXX XXXX, 2015 I walked into XXXX XXXX in XXXX, VA. My purpose was to purchase a XXXX Chrysler 300. When I arrived, I informed my sales agent that I had a check from XXXX XXXX to cover the purchase. Subsequent to agreeing on a price for the vehicle, the salesperson brought a document for me to sign. I looked over the document and notified the salesperson that I would sign, but I did not want the dealership to look for financing on my behalf. The salesperson assured me that would not happen. After about a two hour wait, I finally went into see the finance manager to finalize the transaction. About a week after I purchased the car, I began to receive notices from various lenders notifying me that they were sorry, but they could not extend me credit to purchase the vehicle. After receiving several more rejection notices, I checked my credit report and found out that close to XXXX inquiries had been made by the dealership on my behalf for financing. Upon gaining this information, I called the dealership several times over a 30-45 day period, seeking an explanation for the unauthorized inquiries. I received no return phone call. On XXXX XXXX, 2015 I decided to e-mail the General Manager of the dealership. Within a few hours of my email, I get a call from the finance manager that completed my transaction. He explained to me that there must have been some " misunderstanding '' with the salesperson. The finance manager said that because I signed the document that the salesperson gave me, that gave them the right to shop for financing on my behalf. I informed the finance manager that I signed the document with the explicit instructions to the salesperson not to try to find financing, and that the sales person told me the dealership would not be looking for financing for me. Again the finance manager told me that there was nothing I could do. I asked for some kind of compensation for the unauthorized inquiries and again I was told there was nothing that could be done. XXXX lied to me and shopped for credit without my authorization. I would like some form of compensation for this violation of my rights.

Consumer complaint: My mortgage company ( Wells Fargo ) only uses one appraiser ( XXXX ) to establish the value of my home for the purposes of cancelling PMI. They do not allow the use of any other appraisal company. Wells Fargo contends that XXXX is an independent firm although they are both owned by the same parent company. XXXX ' evaluation of my property value was deliberately based on the lowest value comp in their appraisal and I believe is instructed to do so by Wells Fargo. This seems to be a common issue with Wels Fargo and XXXX. I draw your attention to a pending suit filed by the City of XXXX XXXX for this same reason. XXXX

Consumer complaint: XX/XX/XXXX The company " Credit Protection association '' XXXX Texas XXXX placed a collection in the amount of {$88.00} on my XXXX credit report on behalf of XXXX. I do not owe this money and XXXX has no record of ever sending my account to collections. 

Credit Protection association made no attempt to contact me by mail or phone. They did not give me an opportunity to dispute the error. I was not aware of the amount in collection and have proof that I am in good standing with XXXX. I recently applied for a mortgage and learn of this collection and Credit protection told me when I called the first time that they had no record of me in their data base. Two weeks later when I called they located the file. 

They refused to remove this from my credit report until they Verify with XXXX and they told me that they will not provide me any updates. They also refused to provide me with documentation when they clear up the matter. I need this for my records and to provide to my bank. 

My XXXX account is XXXX. I have been with XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and in good standing as my account has always been on auto pay. 

Company response: Company believes it acted appropriately as authorized by contract or law
Consumer complaint: Citibank 's Credit Card division is charging me a late fee. I sincerely apologized for any inconveniences caused on my end. My card was not valid since the end of XXXX so I did not know there was any balance being carried on my card. I was sent an email by the Citicards, saying a small balance was due, and immediately went to pay the full balance owed on the account when I saw this but was charged fees on top of this balance. I made the payment through my checking account with Citibank. I do not seem to be the type of consumer that the Citibank Credit Card division would credit charges of {$25.00} to automatically. I made such a request through the bank 's online messages. I have been a good cardholder for the company since 2010 and would appreciate continuing the relationship in good faith. I would be open to taking any action which Citibank would be agreeable to to be credited the late fee including closing some of my accounts.

Consumer complaint: XXXX 2015 received credit card statement from Macy 's. Balance was {$110.00} and I paid it in full with a XXXX XXXX check. When I again received my statement in XX/XX/XXXX it showed a non payment and interest and fee attached. I checked my XXXX XXXX Statement and check was cashed XXXX XXXX electronically by Macy 's. I faxed my bank statement to payment research a department I believe is with Department Stores National Bank. XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX statements have still not been corrected to a XXXX balance on my account. I went to XXXX XXXX for assistance and was told they could not provide me with the transaction number because it had been to many weeks and they were not able to retrieve it.

Consumer complaint: I have a charge-off on my credit from " MONTEREY FINANCIAL SVC '' & " MONTEREY COLLECTION SVC '' which I never even applied for. I was sent a letter from Monterey Financial Services Inc dated XXXX XXXX, 2014 saying that my credit application was denied. But again, I never applied for anything to this company or the application for " XXXX '' that they are referring to on their letter. I did attend a sales pitch meeting from XXXX but I did not purchase any of their vacation packages. Now my credit report is showing XXXX charge-offs from this company for {$4600.00} and {$3400.00} ; which like I mentioned above, I have never applied for to begin with.

Consumer complaint: Here are the key facts : I opened a credit card ( Regions Bank DBA XXXX ) in college at XXXX University ( XXXX - XXXX ). Date account was opened XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 
I paid as agreed until the card expired I left college, got married, changed to my married name, and pursued joint credit products to support new our new lifestyle The original account went dormant ( address was still maiden name and student address at XXXX Univ. ) Regions Bank ( DBA XXXX ) applied an account service charge in XXXX, but consumer was not made aware. 
Regions Bank should have known that account was dormant because no subsequent card was activated since late XX/XX/XXXX. 
Regions Bank reported card past due 180 days. 
Customer discovered mistake in XXXX XXXX during mortgage refinance attempt ; fees skyrocketed when applied jointly. 
Customer notified Regions Bank - account was closed ; customer service representative pledged to correct credit history. 
Customer had to remove name from mortgage application to get fees back down ( fortunately husband 's credit score is XXXX - based on all jointly held accounts since XXXX ). I was not able to get a mortgage loan to refinance my existing loan at prevailing rates. The only way to move forward with the transaction was for my husband to refinance the loan in his name only. This makes no sense because in 17 years ( since XXXX ), every one of our credit projects have been held jointly by both of us. He has an XXXX credit score, and mine has been marred by this erroneous information that the lender ( Regions Financial ) refuses to correct. 
Customer reviewed credit in XXXX ( XXXX ), and discovered adverse data had not been corrected. 
Regions must have applied the service charge in XXXX XXXX because my account went 30 days past due in XXXX XXXX. 
Customer contacted Regions Bank - customer service representative said " nothing could be done. '' Customer sent letter to Regions in XXXX XXXX. 
The bottom line is that I feel like I have been a victim of an institutionalized credit system. I have paid all bills presented to me. And I have paid all debts incurred by me. I am very upset that my credit history has been so negatively affected by a creditor who applied service charges on a card that I did not receive ; that I did not activate ; and that I did not use for personal benefit. I feel like the credit system has failed me and my family. 

Thank you so much for your help. I read the XXXX XXXX article titled " The agency that 's got your back. '' And it gave me hope that my voice might be heard. ''

They continue to call under many different numbers with automated messages, after they have been asked to stop many times. 
They have done every communication attempt in total disrespect!

Consumer complaint: With the change to the chip readers, customers who have chips in their debit cards are n't allowed to use a pin in our chip reader pin pads. In trying to determine why this is, I have learned a few things ... 
I called my bank to ask that I be allowed to opt to use the PIN when making debit card purchases, and the representative with whom I spoke referred to her guidebook and said that it is the terminal that determines how the card is processed. Our processor, XXXX XXXX, says that it is the card that determines this. I believe the latter is the case from what I have experienced firsthand. 
My XXXX, when I activated it, asked that I set a PIN. When I tried using it in the terminal at work, IT PROMPTED ME TO INPUT MY PIN. When I called XXXX XXXX yesterday, I was told that they have not issued Chip and PIN cards in the US, only Chip and Sign cards. When I said that I 'd rather have a PIN to avoid fraud in the first place and make my card truly secure, I was told that Fraud is covered 100 % and not to worry ... How stupid is that? 
My work XXXX cards have chips and I called to ask to set a PIN with both of them. The woman with whom I spoke was happy to help and it took a minute to set the PIN. Trouble is, the cards Chip and Sign cards and the PIN will only work in ATMs, which is n't what my goal was. 
In the meantime, XXXX and XXXX are earning extra fees for running the cards on their networks rather than on the debit networks. The debit companies are losing out, but more importantly, the merchants are suffering most in having to pay higher fees for the transactions. 
So much for the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reforms pertaining to debit cards. 
I plan to call the issuers and demand Chip and Pin cards, but XXXX XXXX did n't seem too interested in my request yesterday. Can you help?

Consumer complaint: Please see the attached letter that I have sent to Macy 's Dept Stores, after I received what I consider to be an inappropriate dunning letter. 
XXXX XXXX, XXXXMacy'sXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO. XXXXRE : Form of Massachusetts Debt Validation NoticeAttached is a letter I received from your offices. I tried calling the number ( XXXX ) several times to speak to someone live, but that was never an option. I am contacting you because your letter is very inappropriate and upsetting to me. For an amount of {$27.00} you are sending me a threatening dunning letter, that says in part, " If you or your attorney notify us ... '' and then requests XXXX types of information, such as " A copy of any judgement against you regarding this account ''. As you will know by now, a payment was made that resolved this issue. This account is paid automatically from my XXXX XXXX XXXX account for the full amount due every month. In this case the amount was above my self-imposed limit, which is a safe guard against excessive or fraudulent charging. I have attached my statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX showing payments to Macy 's from XX/XX/XXXX. 

I request a letter from you confirming that this issue has been resolved, and it did not in any way effect my credit rating.

Consumer complaint: An impound escrow was placed on my account due to unpaid taxes from the previous owner. I 've since paid the taxes to remove the escrow. I do expect a refund of that amount, but it is n't the source of this complaint. The escrow remains.

Consumer complaint: Wells Fargo has both our first mortgage and our second mortgage classified as Home Equity loans. They will not give me a reason as too why both of our loans are classified home equity loan. 
I understand the second mortgage being classified as a Home Equity loan but do not understand legally how the first mortgage can be classified as a Equity loan as well. This is a major factor in allowing for a refinance or a modification in which we are in need of and repeatedly are denied.

Consumer complaint: Dear Madam/Sir, I had been a Citibank Banking customer since XXXX. I had been a Citicard Mastercard and Visa customer since XXXX. By the end of XXXX, the relationship ended. 

My complaint centers on the fact that Citicard Mastercard XXXX Account # ******************* ) and Visa ( Account # ******************* ) cancelled my cards in XXXX XXXX soon after I had made a paid in full payment of {$24000.00} to Citicard Mastercard and a full payment of {$12000.00} to Citicard Visa. XXXX cards had been in arrears off and on for about one and a half years due to my unemployment status. I made sporadic payments over this time period but in the end I paid all monies due Citicard which included late fees and 15 % interest. 

I was never notified that Citicard cancelled both the Mastercard and Visa. I discovered this in XXXX XXXX when I tried to use the XXXX Citicard " thank you '' points I had earned over time. A Citicard manager ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) informed me that my credit card accounts had been closed by Citicard and since they were closed I forfeited all of my points ( approx. value {$3200.00} XXXX. 

I certainly understand Citicards ' right to cancel my credit cards but I take exception to not honoring the Citicard " Thank You '' points I had earned. 

I am enclosing a Citicard statement from XXXX XXXX that shows my points. I can not show a more recent statement as Citicard has locked me out of my online account. 

I request that you investigate this matter and hopefully restore my points. I will use the points ' immediately to end my relationship with Citicard. 

Thank you for your consideration. 

Best, XXXX
