Sub-issue: Unable to open an account

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX Tried to open a checking account for my daughter at BOA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX United States XXXX XXXX processed to open an account but needed his supervisor approval. The supervisor is XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX denied our request for opening the checking account. She insisted seeing the original SSN card. We were not notified to bring it to the bank. Not mentioned at all by the bank when we were there making appointment on XX/XX/XXXX. Only asked for passport and a credit card. I offered to provide tax return documents showing the SSN. Firmly refused by XXXX XXXX. I believe she violated bank rules. As explained by XXXX XXXX in an email to my question about the SSN : Unfortunately, once we receive an alert notification that further verification of the legitimacy of the SSN is needed, we are, as explained, required to see proper documentation, be it the SSN card, the SSA letter, or a tax return, with no room for exception. 

Very frustrated by XXXX XXXX, either she is not clear about the bank rules, or she deliberately deny our account open request. Either way is not acceptable.

Complaint:
I had a dispute with a lending company because they never sent me any documents, information, or evan the name of the company to pay this small loan off. I assumed they would eventually send me something but no they didn't they just turned it in to Experian as derogatory. I tryed for over a month to reach the company with the information provided by Experian but could not get anywhere in the mean time I had filed 3 disputes which did me no good. Finally with more reserch on line I was able to reach a customer service representative from the company XXXX who found my account but my account had been turned over to a collection agency so I contacted them and finally was able to pay this loan off in full in one payment. After that I tried to get Experian to remove the derogatory remark but would not allow me to file another dispute so I could upload documents to prove I payed it. So I emailed them and by this time I was frustrated behind belief and I made a few derogatory stamens myself about there company and there app. I checked my report today and XXXX is showing the they had been paid but instead of my score going up they dropped it by 83 points. My other two scores are much hire than Experian and I believe this was intentional. 
Sincerely XXXX XXXX

I have a Bluebird by American Express Card. I work XXXX jobs and have both of my checks deposited on this card.

I work in XXXX, was at my job all day with card in my possession and then after work went to XXXX to buy a few groceries with my card. So on XX/XX/21 I immediately contacted Bluebird by American Express, told them that I did not make these transactions and filed a fraud report. I was honest in telling them I still had the card in my possession - after all I used it at XXXX on XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/21. So the first time I was turned down telling me that these were authorized transactions. I inquired as to what time these transactions were made and no answer. I DID NOT MAKE THESE TRANSACTIONS. I have never withdrawn money from XXXX, OH ATM. I filed a 2nd fraud dispute and was also turned down stating that these were authorized. XXXX XXXX  told me that my card could be duplicated very easily by a skimmer. Bluebird by American Express is refusing to give me my money back. I feel like suing them!!! What do I do??????
