Consumer complaint received 2019-01-22
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: VA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
ISSUE : A Bank of America credit card in my name was charged {$86.00} in XXXX without my knowledge or consent. I was not contacted by Bank of America or a debt collector and only know of the incident because of my annual credit report. 

REPEAT OFFENDER : This is the second time Bank of America has charged me for a credit card without my knowledge or consent. I elected to pay {$100.00} in charges made without my knowledge or consent on a credit card account I did not have just to clear my credit in the summer of XXXX. 

As I politely explained to Bank of America tonight ( XX/XX/XXXX ) by telephone I feel that I have no options to resolve a clear case of identity theft and fraud. 

The Bank of America representative further advised that a savings account and checking account were created in my name in XXXX without my knowledge or consent. 

I have not had a Bank of America account in about seven years yet I still get charged with items on my credit report. Paying a debt I did not owe in XXXX made the problem worse because I accrued an additional balance and two more accounts were opened.

It is clearly stated on the NSLDS that I am in forbearance from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I have requested that Nelnet validate the reporting of these late payments.

Each time the response was " Based on your request and the information you provided, we carefully reviewed your loan ( s ) and the  corresponding data furnished to the credit reporting agencies. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, we have an obligation to ensure information we provide to credit reporting agencies is accurate and objective. Our research indicates the data we submitted accurately reflected your loan status at the time it was reported. '' The " late payments '' that are being reported to the credit bureaus are inaccurate and erroneous and I demand that they are removed immediately under provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I have an account on my credit report that is reporting incorrect information that has been withholding me from seeking new lines of credit. I have indeed disputed this account with XXXX on multiple occasions such as XX/XX/2021 & XX/XX/2021 amongst other dates. The account is from XXXX XXXX and the payment history reporting is indeed incorrect on this account along with an incorrect balance. Since I've sent the dispute letters on XX/XX/2021 & XX/XX/2021, I did not receive a response from XXXX within 30 days as required by law. According to federal credit laws that are stated in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), a credit bureau is required to respond to you and complete their investigation within 30 days. If they indeed do not respond within this time frame, they must remove the negative listing disputed. Attached below are the certified mail certificates showing proof of my disputes. I have tried relentlessly to remove and correct these erroneous accounts with both the creditor and the credit bureau and they have not responded in a timely manner or provided any of the proof, or documentation demanded for these accounts along with they have failed to update any incorrect information as well.

Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: CO
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
USAA Federal Savings Bank ( USAA FSB ) closed all of my accounts in XX/XX/2018 without informing me of the reason. I attempted to determine the cause of the closure and all the USAA FSB representatives I spoke with refused to give me any details. The closure had two primary impacts. First, I was forced to move ( after 20 years with USAA FSB ) all of my accounts to another financial institution. This consumed considerable time and expense as I had my personal checking and savings accounts, checking and savings accounts for the care of my XXXX mother, and my daughters college savings account with USAA FSB. Direct deposits, bill payments, automatic transfers, etc. all had to be reconfigured. 

Second, USAA FSB also revoked my online access to usaa.com, which then impacted my USAA provided insurance service as I'm no longer able to access those insurance accounts online. Given almost all communications are done electronically through the usaa.com website there is now a constant problem accessing insurance information. For example, my auto insurance information was provided through the USAA mobile app, as is emergency service information, which I now can not access because USAA FSB shut down my account. 

Despite numerous attempts to communicate with USAA to attempt to understand why this happened, let alone petition to have them re-estabish my accounts or at least online access to insurance products, I've failed to receive any explanation.

Complaint:
I am attempting to get a copy of the terms and conditions of a card that was opened in my name but is no longer open. I called multiple times to try to get a copy. The first call on XX/XX/XXXX I was transferred to two different departments and then provided a number and was transferred to another department. When I was transferred the call was disconnected. I attempted to call the number I was given and it is not a valid phone number. On a second call I was told they couldn't help me. I then called back a third time and was told that I would receive a copy via postal mail in 5-7 business days. Instead they mailed me a letter telling me my account is closed and I need to speak with their collections department rather than providing me the correct documentation.
