Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Getting the loan

Complaint:
I received a welcome call about two weeks ago from Regions Finance about a loan recently opened, this alerted me to my identity being stolen. I went through XXXX to confirm my DL was found on a dark web search. I learn from Regions that they mail whats called a live check which is the same thing as opening a loan. This alleged check was then cashed in the amount of about ~ {$1800.00}. Regions said the account was opened using my DL number and a signature. Regions also read the signature to me on the phone and it clearly was not my signature. So I asked them to freeze and cancel or do what they can because I do not have any business with them, I have all my regular accounts through XXXX, car loan through XXXX  XXXX, and a small personal loan through upstart. Regions refused any action, kept threatening my credit score, and wont take any action unless directed to by law enforcement. They continue to call, wanting me to fill out an involved packet that requires police report, notarized documents and affidavits, absolving them of responsibility. To recap, Regions Finance used my information to mail an unrequested/unwanted check and then used a stolen drivers license number and a forged signature to cash it. Its worth noting that this happened whilst my credit profile is on lockdown. XXXX. There should be no offers even generated. This is gross negligence on the part of Regions Finance.

Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem accessing account

Complaint:
My account statement for XX/XX/XXXX has a 3-week gap without any reported transactions from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 

I submitted a complaint to the CFPB earlier about reporting gaps in the XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Statements for the same account. Gaps : XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. 

I have also noticed a pattern of unrecognized transactions usually around the XXXX of every month, which I have not reported to the CFPB as I have been able to resolve them directly with the bank. In retrospect, these transactions are likely just a part of the bigger problem at the bank, It seems that the bank is having to eliminate certain transactions that occur around the XXXX of every month from affecting my account balance and thereby eliminating their requirement to report these transactions on statements keeping me unaware of their occurrence. Back-to-Back Debit transactions for the Incoming Credit transactions are no longer sufficient to hide the banks theft or at the least the facilitation thereof of my income.
