Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
I moved in the middle of XX/XX/XXXX and notified Bank of America ( I've had a Visa credit card for 30 years, originally issued by MBNA before it was acquired by Bank of America ) that I was moving and to update the new mailing address. I use the card monthly and do not run a balance. I had paid the XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX bill ( not due until XX/XX/XXXX ) a week ago. 

In mid XX/XX/XXXX I tried to use the card at two stores and it was declined. I called Bank of America today to find out if the card 's chip or the strip was bad. The first gentleman I spoke with ( in West Virginia ) was very professional and was as confused as me as to why the card was closed. He went through the payment history and could not determine why the card was closed. He then transferred me to another gentleman in Texas who was also unclear as to why the card would be closed and then he transferred me to another another person in the some other group within Bank of America. This group apparently has been around for about 5 years. They claim to have solicited me in one mailing in XXXX indicating they wanted some information they no longer had or they would cancel my card. They apparently solicited me again the week of XX/XX/XXXX by phone during working hours from a number I do not recognize and was possible spam. So instead of sending another notice when they should recognize that I am settled in my new home, the cancel the card without due notice. 30 years. Their own website indicates they will not solicit information. There is no indication of this pending cancellation on the most recent billing statement.

Complaint:
Im submitting this complaint against XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX  due to their total disregard for my consumer rights under the FCRA/FCBA/FDCPA. For several months now, I've been disputing inaccurate and unverifiable information showing up on my credit report by this company. I have requested intimate information about the alleged accounts, including a copy of an agreement with my signature on it, but I have yet to receive anything. These companies continue to electronically verify these " ghost '' accounts without providing any legally binding evidence, such as a signed contract and complete accounting of the record, as required by law. They're clearly lying and thus the reason Im asking for proof. However, these companies refuse to provide it, which is not right and is not compliant with the FCRA/FDCPA. Im absolutely fed up. My life has been in complete ruin as a result of this. It's causing enormous mental and financial distress, preventing me from getting approved from credit that I am rightfully entitled to, and not to mention the ample amount of time that I must take out to try and resolve this matter myself. This has brought a great deal of harm to my family as a whole as well. Ive just had enough! Please help! I hope to hear from you soon.

Complaint:
A Charge Off from Capital for the amount of {$2600.00} and {$2100.00} is negatively affecting my credit report. I have filed several disputes and no resolution has been made. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated. I am exercising this right to dispute the charge off on my credit report. 

Furthermore, under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ), specifically 15 USC 6801, credit bureaus are required to maintain the accuracy and integrity of the information they report. The charge off on my credit report does not meet this requirement. 

In addition, I would like to bring to your attention that charge offs are considered gross and ordinary income under the Internal Revenue Code, and as such, should be reported as such on Form 1099-C by the creditor. Failure to issue a 1099-C for the charge off may result in penalties for the creditor.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called US Bank to ensure that they did not take an automatic payment for {$320.00} because my lease had been terminated on XX/XX/XXXX and paid off. The representative told me that because I did not call XXXX business days in advance of when the payment would be taken out ( i.e., XX/XX/XXXX ) that there was a chance the automatic withdrawal would go through. She stated that she placed a " stop payment '' on my account. The payment for {$320.00} was subsequently withdrawn from my account on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I called to follow up with US Bank on or around XX/XX/XXXX to inform that they had taken the money from my account by mistake. They stated that they issued a check to my previous address on XX/XX/XXXX for the full amount ( i.e., {$320.00} ) and that it would take 7 to 10 business days to arrive to my home. I requested that they place a " stop payment '' on the check and reissue a new one to my correct address. They said that it would take 2 to 3 business days to reissue and send. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have not received a check. 

Today, US Bank again took a payment for a lease I no longer have for {$320.00} despite my calling them twice to confirm that the stop payment was effective. This caused the account to overdraft by {$20.00}.

State: IN
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
Getting a fair calculation of a credit score is beyond a major problem, It's inherent racial bias to incorrect data! Data about the current scoring model shows that more than one in five XXXX consumers and one in nine XXXX consumers have FICO scores below XXXX ; meanwhile, one out of every 19 XXXX people are in the sub- XXXX category. 
I certainly found out why that is true. I recently had loans forgiven and also paid down debt totaling nearly {$25000.00}. My score only went up one point. ONE POINT! I called TransUnion on XX/XX/2023 and questioned the score. I was told that they had nothing to do with score calculations and that it is calculated by a computer after it receives certain information. I could hardly believe I was hearing this explanation. 
I was then told I had to work at making my payments on time and my score would raise a little bit at a time each month. I was treated like my score was in the low 500s. I told her that my score was XXXX at Transunion and it's XXXX at XXXX. She was speechless. This certainly proved the scenario that I included in the beginning of this complaint had indeed some truth to it. The agent I spoke with talked to me as if I was another XXXX person with a bad credit score. 
Not only did the agent and supervisor think the 1 point score was fair, they let it sit on may report for 60 days before acknowledging it which purposely delayed the point increase. ONE POINT! In what world is this close to being fair?! 
I am asking for my REAL credit score and for someone to examine the current scoring model that they use each day because it is definitely unfair and biased.
