Sub-issue: Problem with balance transfer

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021 I asked for a balance transfer to Bank of America ( BankAmericard ) to pay off another credit card, and they gave me a credit limit of {$2000.00} that was much lower than the amount I have asked. 
On XX/XX/2021 Bank of America made the payment of {$1900.00} to my credit card without notified me. Because Bank of America did not give me the amount requested for I couldn't payoff my credit card. I called Bank of America and asked them to cancel the balance transfer requested. Their associate named XXXX from Texas was told me that was impossible to cancel because was made a eletronic payment. I think it is not fear because I received a letter with a card for activation, that I never did, and credit card agreement letter, credit score ( I have XXXX ) letter, and account summary table letter after they make a payment. The letters they sent to me did not have a datest Now the Bank of America wants I pay them the amount, refusing to cancel the balance transfer against my will. 
What can I do now? I am obligated to have this credit card against my will? This financial companies will win all the time against the american people?

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 's credit dispute process refusing to correct the payment history reported to the Credit Bureaus showing that this account 's XXXX payment was made 30 days late. 

This account has been opened for more than 3 years with no late payment history since the inception of the loan. In XXXX ( approximate ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) was acquired by another bank. Prior to this acquisition, the monthly payment was made by us to XXXX via wire transfer from our bank directly to the HELOC account. Post acquisition, a change in process occurred whereby XXXX would accept payment ONLY by a direct debit ( by XXXX ) from the checking account which was required by BOTW to have in order to have obtained the HELOC. 

At issue is that this direct debit from XXXX occurs at midnight on the XXXX of the month and only on XXXX of the month at midnight. It does not appear that XXXX verifies the funds are available in the required checking account within the stated grace period and before reporting a late payment to the credit bureaus. 

Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX the full payment amount was wired into the XXXX checking account and available to the bank to withdraw for payment. Unbeknownst to me- nor should the burden be entirely mine to ensure XXXX pulls money available to them to cure the owed payment before reporting a damaging 30 day late payment to the credit bureaus. 

I provided to XXXX credit dispute department confirmation that the wire was sent and received by XXXX within the first five business days of the due month.

I believe the bank failed to act responsibly by : 1 ) verifying if the payment was available in the designated account before the end of the grace period ; 2 ) verifying the payment was available in the designated account before the end of the month or time period before reporting a missed payment to the credit bureaus. XXXX 's practice of limiting the timeframe by which they verify payment is made to midnight of the first business day of the month and does not appear to verify within a reasonable amount of time the payment is available creates a harming situation for a customer who is making their payment ; making their payment in the manner designated by the bank ; and made within the stipulated grace period and within the time frame allowable before a negative payment is reported to the bureaus. 

The XXXX actions are now creating secondary harm through increased interest rates and higher costs for purchases relying on our credit bureau score. 

I am requesting that XXXX correct the late payment report to the credit bureaus. I also encourage, as a matter of public policy, to review this practice by XXXX. 

Thank you.

Complaint:
This company is advertising dscr loans for XXXX XXXX down. They do not disclose requirements before running credit report. They also dont give a loan estimate. They make you pay for appraisal and inspection then tell you the property does not qualify for the loan the DAY of closing. The loan officer should have been able to run the numbers for the debt service before application was submitted for the loan. They assured us that it did qualify. The loan officers do not know what they are doing and are deceiving customers. This is an unprofessional company and lender.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem accessing account

Complaint:
I had a XXXX banking account with BBVA which had about 10 transactions per month, as well as a personal checking account that I asked to have shut down 18 months ago and had had a XXXX balance since then ( I thought my request was taken care of ). PNC Bank bought out BBVA, and I received a debit card in the mail. I activated it and used it for business purposes. Then I started getting notices that the account was overdrawn. Impossible, I thought. 

After my first call in, I was told that it was a debit card for a personal account- they opened up a personal account and sent me a debit card. Meanwhile, I have not received any correspondence related to my XXXX account, which I badly need. I have now called in 6 times attempting to track down my XXXX card, about 2 hours of time on the phone, and EVERY CALL has dropped. 

So I have overdraft fees on a card I never wanted, no access to funds that I need in the account I use, and no one can give me an answer.

Product: Debt collection

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I received a letter from Convergent Outstanding Inc saying that I owe {$650.00} to XXXX. I never opened an account on my own with XXXX. I was under my dad 's plan, under his name and always paid in full. I do not owe any debts to XXXX as I never had an account. 

The first time I received a letter was two months ago for about {$220.00} and I paid for it without thinking because there was a time in college I let my friend used my address for phone bill since he lives in a different state, and plus I don't want a debt to ruin my credit so I paid for it without even checking in with my friend first. However, after confirming with him, and he called XXXX to confirm this and they said they have no record of a debt I wish I did some research before paying for the first time. I've learned a hard lesson. Also, everything I received in mails ALWAYS included my middle name or middle initial. ( see attached and you don't see my middle name/initial ). This company is a fraud and horrible and these people need to be stopped.
