Complaint:
I opened an estate account with Chase Bank in XXXX, XXXX. On XX/XX/21, I was informed that the account was restricted due to an account name issue. I went to the XXXX, XXXX location and resigned all the paperwork, understanding the account was corrected. I was notified 4-5 days later that it was not corrected, that they needed a copy of my marriage license ( from 16 yrs ago ) to prove that my legal last name that is on my identification is really my name. I called 3x to ensure that all was ok, and proceeded with writing checks to handle estate expenses. I spoke with someone in Chase 's back-office who said that the checks would clear, yet they bounced. Then, I was told by my contact at the XXXX branch in XXXX that I needed to go back to a Chase Branch location ( now in XXXX, XXXX since I was no longer in XXXX  and had returned home ), and re-sign all the bank paperwork again. I was informed at the branch by my contact on XXXX XXXX in XXXX that my account was locked and I should " wait a few days '' because I couldn't re-sign any paperwork. After multiple calls to the " back office '' and between the XXXX contact and the XXXX  contact, I was told to come back to the Chase Bank branch in XXXX, XXXX  to re-sign the paperwork again, and that I needed to wait to hear if the account was fixed. The next day, I received a call saying they couldn't reconcile my last name with the paperwork that is part of the estate and prove that I am the same person ( although I have all the identification to prove I am ) and that they would be canceling my account. At that point, I informed my representative that it was physically impossible to resurrect my dead XXXX to verify my name, even though I have all the legal documentation to do so. It has been nearly a week now and no one can tell me where my roughly $ XXXX is from this account, and when I log into the Chase Bank portal, my account and my money are gone. I am consistently reaching out to the bank, and conveniently get hung up on when my calls are routed to the Chase " back office. '' I put that terminology in quotes because I've heard it multiple times from my in-person advisors at the branch locations of Chase Bank. In the end, this also changed my mind about moving ~ $ XXXX $ XXXX in long-term investments to Chase Bank XXXX

Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Can't close your account

Complaint:
Wells Fargo is ignoring my requests to close my Everyday Checking account. My first written account closure request was by letter dated XX/XX/2022. My second written account closure request was by letter dated XX/XX/2022. Wells Fargo has given me no explanation for holding my account open against my express instructions. Perhaps it wants to report maximum open accounts to its shareholders, but holding an account open against a customer 's repeated instructions is as bad as opening accounts without customer 's authorization. My account has had a XXXX balance for months, with no outstanding transactions. My last resort is to trouble Wells Fargo 's regulator, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, with helping me effectuate account closure. I will be grateful for the CFPB 's assistance.

Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
I have enjoyed the use of a Synchrony XXXX VISA credit card for 2-3 years. Based on my credit score and subsequently my payment history, I began with a credit limit in excess of $ 6k, which gradually increased to over $ 9k and finally to over $ 11k. 

A few months ago, included in my monthly statement was a notice from XXXX stating, " To Our Valued XXXX VISA Credit Cardholders : We regret to inform you that, due to the current market environment, the XXXX Visa Credit Card program is ending. You can continue to make purchases using the card until XX/XX/XXXX and redeem your earned rewards points until XX/XX/XXXX. We encourage you to use your points toward the purchase of a new XXXX ... or to apply your points towards your current credit card balance in the form of a statement credit. '' ( Based on their previous written explanation, my current points equate to over {$260.00} which I intended to apply to this month 's bill. I am allowed to redeem points XXXX {$300.00} per year. ) After I was unable to redeem the points online, I contacted XXXX 's Customer Service Department ( XXXX ) at XXXXXXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX to get assistance in redeeming the points as a credit to my account. The representative ( XXXX in the Mo. office ) informed me that his records did not show me having ANY rewards points, to which I informed him that my current statement ( received this week ) shows me having over 26k points ( based on my charges in excess of $ 13k since XX/XX/XXXX ). Upon speaking to Supervisor XXXX, ID XXXX. XXXX ( at my request ), I was informed at an extremely accelerated speaking rate that while the rewards points are still redeemable til XX/XX/XXXX, a decision was made not to allow me to redeem my points. He could not give me a clear response as to why my account was singled out in spite of my current statement indicating otherwise. It is worth noting at this juncture that my account has been paid in an EXCEPTIONAL and TIMELY manner since its inception, generally carrying a " XXXX '' balance at the end of each month. I don't think I EVER made a " minimum '' payment. 

I would appreciate a response as to whether this has been a deliberate deceptive business practice and/or whether other practices/policies generated this action regarding use of the earned rewards points.

Complaint:
Complaint Regarding Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. I have been actively disputing these inaccuracies with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to adequately investigate my claims or remove the incorrect information. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I attached the PDF file below containing the list of items that have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681.

Credit Bureau stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify or delete accounts that aren't reporting correctly.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

I also believe that the credit bureaus have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to : 1. Investigate my disputes in a timely and reasonable manner : The credit bureaus have not provided a clear explanation for their decision not to remove the inaccurate information, and I believe their investigation was inadequate.

2. Furnish accurate information to creditors : The inaccurate information on my credit report is harming my ability to obtain credit and other financial services.

3. Follow the FCRA 's dispute resolution procedures : The credit bureaus have failed to comply with the timeframes and procedures outlined in the FCRA.

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate my complaint and take the following actions : 1. Order the credit bureaus to remove the inaccurate information from my credit report.

2. Require the credit bureaus to provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the changes.

Enclosures : Copies of my credit reports Copies of my dispute letters Copies of any supporting documentation I provided to the credit bureaus
