Consumer complaint received 2019-03-18
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NV
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I noticed in XX/XX/XXXX, that the amount of my payment on my credit card had doubled but could not read the ebill and thought maybe I just missed the last payment ( missing payments is not something I do but my mom had major XXXX and I was her caretaker ), so I paid the higher amount, in XX/XX/XXXX the payment was even higher so I went to my home and found the statement and noticed that my card had gone from approximately {$1400.00} to almost {$5000.00}. The charges on the statement were from Minneapolis, California and Wisconsin and most of the charges were for XXXX in California. The statement had 13 pages of charges from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX etc. In all of the above states I have not been too. I immediately call Bank of America to report the fraud. She told me it looks like they tested it in XXXX with one charge, XXXX with a couple of charges and then went crazy in XXXX, XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. ( My credit card was in the safe at my home ). They credit my card back the {$3300.00} and opened an investigation. I received the first letter from Bank of America on XX/XX/XXXX, letting me know they had credited my card back, sent a new card and the investigation was opened. I received the second letter on XX/XX/XXXX, saying the investigation was complete and the charges are mine and I would need to pay them. I again called Bank of America and explained the situation to another employee and he reopened the case saying he was confused because I live in XXXX, Nevada and the charges are from other states. At that time I told him I would need to see something where I or my husband had signed for any of these charges and an explanation of what the investigation showed. I received a third letter on XX/XX/XXXX, saying the investigation is complete, the charges are mine and I could go to the three consumer reporting agencies and dispute them their but I would still have to pay the {$3300.00}. I have still not received anything with mine or my husbands signatures on them or the reason the investigation showed I had made these charges and why. Our credit rating right now is in the high 700 and I want to keep it that way but these are not my charges. I am at a loss what to do next.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back. 

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.

Complaint:
My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against IC System , Inc., for committing identity theft. I have never given IC System , Inc., any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). 

I have not validated any alleged debt with IC System , Inc. and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/23, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving IC System , Inc. any right to collect on this alleged debt. 
I have never received any documentation requesting validation from IC System , Inc., before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If IC System , Inc., can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. 

I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until IC System, Inc., can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and IC System , Inc., continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and IC System , Inc., will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

Complaint:
I discovered in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  that there was a late payment reported to one or more Credit Reporting Agencies from XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  for my mortgage with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

At that time, I had a XXXX XXXX that required that I be XXXX  for an extended period. This unforeseen emergency impeded my ability to make the timely mortgage payment. 

Because I was XXXX  at multiple and extended periods between XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  and XX/XX/XXXX, I was unable to communicate with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  to request forbearance and certain other protections available to me under the CARES Act. This inability to communicate prevented me from attesting to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  as the mortgage servicer that I was experiencing a COVID-19 hardship and other complications caused by a XXXX diagnosis and subsequent extended hospitalization. 

I became aware that I was entitled to attest to financial hardship during the COVID-19 emergency and supplied medical documentation in support of the request for accommodation under the CARES Act as a borrower affected by the COVID-19 Emergency. 

Up until the XXXX XXXX, I had an on-time payment history with the XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX  since the mortgage loan was originated. Subsequently, my payment history demonstrated ongoing and recurring on-time payments since being XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
I went to the Bank of America ATM at XXXX CA and deposited {$5900.00} all at once, I know, the ATM says 40 bills at the time, I apologize for that. For some reason the ATM started acting weird and making some weird noises, after a good few minutes waiting for the ATM to be done I get a screen that says to type in my deposited amount so I said {$5900.00} so I never got my money back from the ATM. 

I went to my online banking to see only {$400.00} deposited so I called the bank and talked to a Bank of America representative ( XX/XX/21 ), somehow the disputed {$5900.00} became {$5600.00} without my knowledge, I have a messages from XX/XX/21 at my Bank of America online and see that the disputed amount became a final {$4600.00} missing {$1300.00} from the deposited amount and it seems Bank of America don't care because they already took their decision on their favor. 

I know machines are awesome but we can't relay on them all the time.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022, I notice there were numerous transactions on my checking account that I didn't authorize. I called M & T Bank and informed them of the problem. I was told that my card would be closed and a new card would be sent out. I was also told to monitor my account and if there were any more charges made to call back in. Which, I shouldn't have had to do so if I've already reported the issue. Later that evening I logged in to see another charge was made. I called back in to speak with a representative and at that time the ATM card was shut down. I don't know why it wasn't shut down immediately when I called earlier that day! The second representative also sent me a new card out expedited and finally closed the old card. I spoke with a supervisor this morning XX/XX/2022 about my issue and told her there were more charges and I ask how could this be if the card was closed? She then put in another dispute for the extra charges. I also ask why did I not receive any alerts notifying me as well as the bank that these charges were occurring back to back? Because I had reported the issue yesterday XX/XX/2022? She couldn't give me a clear answer. As of now, this issue has cost me a total of {$190.00}. And I would like my money refunded to me asap and for them to fix the system that's supposed to notify members of the activity on their accounts. I received one notification after the fact and never received any other notifications about the other transactions I didn't approve. The supervisor told me she would be clearing the issue up but, I haven't heard back from her. This is unacceptable for M & T Bank to handle one 's account in this manner when they're entrusting the bank to protect their funds!
