Complaint:
While on unemployment, during 2020, I received a deposit only account from Bank of America, which was the only option to receive my money. During this time, most of the branch locations were closed because of the pandemic. Oftentimes the ATM machines were completely out of money. This caused me to use out of network ATM machines incurring finance charges, but it also had another effect. Everytime I withdrew money, my account was locked for XXXX business days pending a fraud investigation. I called the XXXX department approximately XXXX times, every time they assured me that it wouldn't happen again. At XXXX point my account was locked for over XXXX weeks.

Upon contacting Bank of America, I received a response from XXXX XXXX, who according to my research was formerly fired from XXXX Bank for fraud. And she's my resolution XXXX??

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I was solicited by a travel company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that provided false claims regarding a wholesale travel membership that turned out to be fraudulent. I was told by this company if I didnt use the service, I would not have to pay for it. Once discovering it was a scam, I contacted the company to cancel the membership ( which according to my state law in XXXX have the right to do within three days ). When I was then told I could not cancel, I asked for a copy of all documents with our agreed upon terms. Monterey Financial has still not provided me any evidence of our original agreement indicated by my signature. As you can tell in the documents, the claimed time stamps simply say esigned with a timestamp and IP address that ( XXXX ) are replicated in multiple places ( which would be impossible to sign multiple pages at the exact same time ), ( XXXX ) timed at XXXX, and ( XXXX ) is not even my IP address ( I have attached documentation to verify this is not my IP address ). I was also originally told that the documents would be in XXXX, which i have an account in and would be able to view completed documents once signed. Once I addressed this concern, they then claimed they were mistaken in the signature collection software and it was some other software that was used. It is clear that the documents were altered and do not contain our agreed upon terms. After reporting the travel company for fraudulent practices, I have not heard from them after filing disputes. However, this company, Monterey Financial, has provided NO written notification about any attempt to dispute claimed debt.

I included my reasoning in the dispute letters as well as all of my identification documents that the bureaus require. I never received any notices or anything that these accounts were being investigated. Because this went on for over a month, I sent another letter to the bureaus on XX/XX/2020. I still haven't received anything through the mail, email, nothing! Not even acknowledgment that my disputes were received, let alone being investigated!

Complaint:
PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHMENTS! - Hello ; How are you doing during this pandemic? Hoping that youre safe and sound. Listen, I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report today and found those accounts attached still on my credit report despite the fact that it's reporting incomplete, inaccurate, erroneous, and with misleading and inconsistent information. There is no way that these accounts could've been verified as accurate because it continues to report incorrect information and it's actually illegally causing this account to re-aged. These accounts attached are not reporting in compliance with the law and saying that you " VERIFIED AS ACCURATE '' ; it's basically a binding contract when you say those words. Base on my understanding, account status needs to be updated when I dispute an item, and why is it showing XXXX credit bureau that the payment history was OK but the others showing CO status. So many violations and inconsistencies and i need them removed and deleted from my credit report effective immediately and i think 15 days way enough time. Please delete them all for violation and inaccuracies.

Complaint:
I noticed on my credit report that I owe {$29.00} to Comenity bank. This showed up in XXXX. I have no idea what it is. I can not get a copy of a bill or get any information from the company regarding the amount. most credit card companies send a bill I have no bill. I don't know what this is in the meantime it's gone from $ XXXX {$59.00} to I believe today I saw it's {$100.00}, I don't know how interest goes up that fast but anyway, I pay much larger credit card bills monthly but for some reason nobody can tell me what this is. I disputed this with XXXX and they say it's legitimate and the only way to reach the commodity for this problem is via letter - a XXXX XXXX XXXX in this day of age I find that very strange. I don't have any idea what this is I don't see why it's so hard for somebody to talk to me on the phone. I called XXXX 's number and it's automated you can't talk to a live person. I want get this resolved it's not helping my credit report and obviously if I owe {$29.00} I would pay it it's ridiculous and frustrating. I filed another dispute stating I did not know what the amount is for. I guess the creditors get all that or the alleged creditors get all the support. I really feel this is a scam.
