Consumer complaint received 2023-07-10
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I closed a HELOC with PNC late last year. Prior to closing I had both a recorded phone call and an email from her describing how my payment would be broken up. I mentioned to her in my email and call that before closing I wanted to know how much of my payment would go toward principal and how much would be interest. I have in writing ( and she told me on the phone ) that my total payment ( knowing how much I was transferring and using ) would be {$480.00} and that of that {$240.00} goes to principal and the rest goes towards interest. I signed to receive funds with this understanding. The first month- this was accurately drawn but the following months from XXXX through current they have been only putting less than {$70.00} of my payment towards my principal. I tried emailing XXXX XXXX ( my loan closer ) and she apparently was moved to a different department, I then tried to speak with her boss ( XXXX XXXX who said he couldn't help me ). I went into a branch and spoke with XXXX about it and she said that I needed to transfer {$1300.00} from checking to HELOC in order to fix it which I did and that didn't fix it. When I went back to see her- that branch had changed to ATM only and she didn't work there anymore. I then spoke with XXXX XXXX who tried to help but couldn't get an answer about what had happened and now she too has stopped responding to me. I want my payments to be split the way I was told IN WRITING ( have copies ) they would be. I would not have signed to receive this HELOC if I had known my payments would be split differently. If this isn't illegal it is certainly unethical and absolutely PREDATORY. At this point- I should have over {$2000.00} as part of my principal put back into HELOC account based on how I was told my payments would be split. I would like that money back and also I would like my payments to be fixed moving forward.

Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( 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. However, 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. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, on a trip to XXXX XXXX I tried to use my Chase debit card to withdraw funds from an ATM. I tried to take out {$210.00}, I inserted my card into the ATM, selected the amount I wanted to withdraw, but the ATM machine did not dispense any cash or receipt. I checked my app on my phone immediately and saw that the amount was withdrawn, but then credited back immediately. I assumed that I had tried to take out too much money, so I tried again. This time taking out {$100.00}. Again, the same thing happened, the ATM did not dispense any cash or receipt. The next day I called Chase to confirm my money was secure and to notify them of what had happened. I talked to a representative who had me explain my story about 6-8 times, drilling me about the amounts I tried to take out and kept insisting I tell her the amount I actually received, even though I kept repeating that I got {$0.00} from the ATM. From the very beginning it seemed like she was on the defensive and did not believe what had happened. I explained to her that she could check my history with them, that I traveled a lot and never had I tried to submit a claim of this sort because this never happened to me. She eventually, after a very long call told me she would submit a claim and they would investigate the  matter. My money was refunded on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX they reversed the refund. I did not receive any notification that they would be removing these funds from my account, though they claim I did ( thankfully I had additional funds and my account was not in red ). I called and asked to speak to someone who could explain why my claim was denied - they said that they communicated with the bank in XXXX XXXX and they said their ATMs were balanced and the money was retrieved from the ATM. I asked them to please contact them again and explain that the money was not dispensed. I called again today on XX/XX/XXXX to receive an update, because again I am not being notified of any updates on this claim and they said that the bank claimed again that the ATM dispensed the money and they were able to provide a receipt. I asked if they could please ask the bank for the CCTV footage, because the ATM did not dispense any money or a receipt and they said that those could only be subpoenaed so they would not be doing that. The agent told me there was not much more I could do. I've asked twice now what I can do in the future to protect myself from this happening again and no agent can provide a response. I am very frustrated that {$320.00} were stolen without Chase taking any responsibility for their actions or even trying to advocate in my defense as their customer.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. Over 45 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I am being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), plainly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 45 days now so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you have caused me. My information by the XXXX  data breach may have got into the hands of the wrong person.
