Company: NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANK
State: FL
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Complaint:
I am a customer of NYCB, using the physical branch of theirs ( XXXX XXXX ) at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX as regarding this complaint. 
On XX/XX/18, I scheduled an ACH payment of {$870.00} to XXXX for a Credit Card account held there. In so doing, I transferred the necessary funds from my E Money market account to facilitate the transaction. And, the request was therefore confirmed by XXXX. 

On XX/XX/18, an employee of XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX posted a check for {$300.00} that belonged to another customer of their bank to my account in error. 
On perusing my account on the night of XX/XX/18, I saw that there was an unauthorized debit posted to my account in the amount of {$300.00}, and immediately contacted their Customer Service via my online account-telling them of the problem. And, I cc'ed same email to the bank personnel at the XXXX XXXX  branch XXXX The unauthorized debit to my account, negligently facilitated by the bank employee rendered an overdraft on my checking account as the ACH was still paid despite the balance being {$300.00} short due to the bank 's error. 

I received a call from the XXXX XXXX bank employee on XX/XX/18, and she apologized and promised to resolve the matter as soon as possible. She assured me that visiting the branch was unnecessary. 

On XX/XX/18, I decided to check my account, and was quite dismayed to see that there was an Overdraft Fee assessed to my account, which again put the account in overdraft. 

There should be no Overdraft and no Overdraft Fee assessed to me for a fault that was engendered by an incompetent employee who took money from my account in error. 

I visited the branch to see the employee and have her reverse the Overdraft Fee, and rightfully put my account back in the black. 

To date, I have not received any response from NYCB Customer Service. My email to them was not acknowledged, and neither was there a response to my email account regarding their internal snafu. 

People intent on doing business with NYCB and XXXX XXXX   should remember caveat emptor, as their staff is ill-equipped for their fiduciary responsibilities.

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

Complaint:
I received another correspondence from your Transunion dated XX/XX/2023, indicating that the investigation of my disputes was complete. As of date, Transunion and their nonaffiliated 3rd parties are still WILLFULLY violating the Gramm Leach Bliley Act pursuant to 15 USC 6802 by sharing my nonpublic personal information WITHOUT my lawful consent! To be clear, I NEVER requested an investigation because I NEVER GAVE Transunion or their nonaffiliated 3rd parties any lawful consent to share my nonpublic personal information! Transunion responded alleging that the accounts in reference in my statement letter attached to this complaint were verified but Transunion did not provide me a copy of the investigative consumer report as defined by Congress pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( e ). The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. Such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. The FACT that pursuant to 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( E ) no provision under the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires a financial institution to furnish negative information CONFIRMS that Transunion DEFAME MY CHARACTER AND RUINING MY REPUTATION! Due to defaming my character and ruining my reputation, I am not even allowed to open a bank account due to the bank telling me that I am high risk due to over 16 soft inquiries on my credit report. Let it be known that not only are you violating the Fair Credit Reporting act but also violating the Gramm Leach Bliley Act for infringing on my privacy and sharing my nonpublic personal information without my consent! I have already provided my FTC report with the inquires that Transunion needs to remove. And yet Transunion is still infringing on my privacy and sharing my nonpublic personal information without my consent! I am under a lot of pain and suffering, lack of sleep and have high anxiety due to stress that Transunion has put on me to the point that I have loss the enjoyment of life!

Company: MoneyLion Inc.
State: PA
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect

Complaint:
I had never heard of Moneylion before they started charging my checking account twice weekly. I looked them up online and contacted them by phone on XX/XX/XXXX. This was the first day that I had noticed the charges which started XX/XX/XXXX. 

I advised them that I had not agreed to any loan or other financial service from them. They were unable to find an account with my name or information, nor which account had linked my checking account to it. They agreed it was likely fraudulent and submitted it to their fraud department and assured me the card would be blocked from future transactions. 

I have since contacted them 7 additional times with no movement on the case. They however continue to charge my account twice weekly despite assuring me that it would be blocked. In addition, on XX/XX/XXXX, they issued a loan using my financial information which was also never authorized. 

They have should a general incompetence in resolving the matter and a willful disregard in actually verifying information presented to them to deter fraudulent activity.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 I XXXX A XXXX on my own behalf sent a letter to each of the CRA ( Credit Reporting Agencies ) Equifax, XXXX, XXXX in regards to inaccurate and unverified accounts reporting on my consumer report. To date almost 45 days later I have not been notified either by mail or phone of the receipt of my letters. I feel like I am being taken advantage of and my disputes ignored. Section 611 ( a ) clearly states a failure to investigate any dispute in the appropriate time ( 30 days ) gives me the CONSUMER the right to request that these negative items be removed from my CONSUMER report. Well its been well over 30 days ( its been 45 ) so with that being said Im asking that these items be deleted PROMPTLY. I demand that these accounts be removed immediately or I will have no other choice then to have my lawyer file for litigation on this matter. In closing, my information was impacted by the Equifax and XXXX data breach which may have caused my information to fall into the hands of the wrong people/person ( s ).

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

Complaint:
Please research my credit history. You can see that it was great until XXXX of 2022. My Mortgage company ( XXXX  ) has ruined my credit. Ive argued with them for over 6 months. XXXX management is adamant they are right, and more importantly, I am wrong. I filed a XXXX claim against them back in XXXX and my account has been flagged. I cant speak to customer service about my account without having to go straight to a manager. This is retaliatory and unfortunate because customer service seams competent and helpful. 

Caliber, in ERROR, added escrow to my account in XXXX. They later corrected it in XXXX. However, they credited escrow for most of my XXXX payment. I found out in XXXX that they sent me a check in XXXX for the amount that was sent to escrow. I never received it, nor was I expecting a payment. I never received, cashed, or was wired any money from XXXX. Every month we are on the phone trying to figure out why they are sending us delinquency notices and why they say our account doesnt balance. On our end, we show that the amounts we paid equal the amounts we owe as of XX/XX/XXXX '. Customer Service saw our issue and promised a returned call by a manager. Finally, in XXXX a customer service rep tells me in mid XXXX that a check was sent back in XXXX. XXXX puts a stop on the check and reissues. So, in XXXX I receive a check, I deposit and send back to XXXX. Now they show my balance as resolved. Meanwhile, to the rest of the world, Im late paying for XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and maybe XXXX. 

If Im delinquent, why are they sending me money. Why couldnt they just keep it and not ruin my credit? A XXXX  manager that I was forwarded to insisted that as soon as they wrote me a check for the escrow reimbursement back in XXXX, I was delinquent. If I havent received the money, XXXX still has the money. I didnt get the money until XXXX. XXXX management is not going to research anything. If their screen reads late. It is late. PERIOD. 

This all began by a XXXX error. My account should have never been thrown into escrow. My payments should have always been {$1200.00}. If Im late, it is just for XXXX and XXXX. That is when my wife was on the phone with them trying to figure out why they applied escrow to our account in the first place. Im not doing this because of the $ XXXX late fees. Im doing this because my credit that I spent 30 years building has been trashed in 6 months by a payment misunderstanding.

Complaint:
Affidavits Attached XXXX XXXX v.

Upon contacting XXXX XXXX, Experian, and XXXX, and XXXX  in reference to an unverified bankruptcy reporting on my credit reports that they maintain under my social security, noting that XXXX XXXX had an inaccurate social security number reporting. 

Looking into my XXXX report, on it's website ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) it listed XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX ( XXXX XXXX '' ) as a provider of the bankruptcy information to XXXX. FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) requires XXXX and XXXX XXXX to ONLY report information from the original furnisher of the information and to provide me with the name, address, and telephone number of each federal bankruptcy court clerk contacted regarding this unverified bankruptcy showing on my XXXX XXXX and XXXX report. 

Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file. Therefore, any 3rd party validation or subscription to PACER is not validation and is a violation of FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) which requires you to notify the party who furnished the disputed information which is an additional violation of section 5 ( a ) of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( FTC Act ) ( 15 USC 45 ) which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices by purposely reporting information that they have assumed is verifiable based off circumstances.
