Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
My wife and I have been a banking member of TD bank for about 8 years. We not only have a business checking and savings account but also opened a personal checking and savings account with them. We have never had an overdraft, negative balance or any issues that were raised with the bank during this time. On Monday XX/XX/2022 we both received separate letters from the " demarketing '' at TD Bank notifying us that they are closing all of our accounts XXXX week of XXXX and the letter provided only a phone number that went to voicemail. No reason was cited and we initially thought the letters were some type of fraud scheme. After leaving approximately 6 voicemails to the number listed on the letter ; I reached out to a local branch manager who emailed the department because there is no direct contact with them client facing or at the branch level. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am fully aware of AML issues but the bank refused to explain anything other than " they reserve the right to close without issuing a reason '' which is totally unprofessional and left us feeling a bit like criminals. We currently have a professional medical business account with them and closing our account without any dialogue and appropriate time ( less than three weeks ) is one of the worst experiences I have had with a bank. Understanding business is business we at a minimum after 8 years would appreciate an opportunity to discuss the issue they are seeing and allow us the opportunity to maintain the relationship if we can explain, rectify or even demonstrate they are wrong. After digging into TD 's reviews and practices, it appears that this happens regularly and people never hear back or are never given an opportunity to clarify if the bank is mistaken in its assumptions. We are now in a bind to open another bank account and transfer all of our normal operations over within a short time. In writing this I am hoping TD reaches out to me and affords us the opportunity to work with them in maintaining our accounts and allowing us to correct any issues. Reference # XXXX

Complaint:
A scammer contacted me and somehow got access to our XXXX account in our Wells Fargo account and add them on as a recipient on XXXX. I hung up the phone, but {$400.00} was removed from our account. I contacted the bank and filed a complaint, but was told it was unlikely we would get the money back, because XXXX does not refund, even when they know fraudulent activity has occurred. XXXX and Wells Fargo should have extra security steps available, especially since I did not put XXXX on my bank account and I did not authorize any payments to this recipient or add them on to my account.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
Despite multiple notifications to Equifax regarding the constant reporting of an incorrect amount owed by XXXX XXXX - XXXX, the issue persists. I have repeatedly informed Equifax that I have never made direct payments to XXXX XXXX. Instead, I make payments to the original creditor, XXXX XXXX, for which I owe only {$300.00}. Any medical debt under {$500.00} should be promptly removed from my credit report. Please refer to the attached recent bill from XXXX, which clearly indicates a balance of {$300.00}. 

Failing to rectify this account after being informed of its inaccuracy would be a violation of my rights under the FCRA. Enclosed, you will find copies of the bill showing a {$300.00} balance owed. 

I'm also attaching proof that Equifax is allowing the reporting of the balance owed to constantly be increased and decreased. It is now increased to showing over {$600.00}.

I explained that I have not received any correspondence from them. After he continued to yell, scream and threaten to sue me I eventually just had to hang up because he would not listen to me.
