Complaint:
For the past 6 months, my husband and I have been getting " serious delinquencies '' reported to our credit card companies from the credit reporting agencies which is totally inaccurate and wrong. When we ran our credit reports with AnnualCreditReport.com they show absolutely no delinquencies in our accounts ( as it should be ) and have never been delinquent with any of our accounts in over 21 years. When we contacted all three credit agencies, they told us that their records show no delinquencies and no problems and to contact the credit card companies directly to get it cleared up. But when we call the credit card companies, they tell us that the information they have is being supplied by the credit reporting agencies and there is nothing they can do about it. We have been in a vicious cycle between the two groups and no one has been able to help us. Every month I have been hoping that the information gets cleared up but it is still being reported as delinquent for some reason. Somebody somewhere is reporting this and it is erroneous information that is affecting our credit scores. Please help us get this rectified. The credit card companies are XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX.

2. On XX/XX/2021 the transfer was not sent and BBVA, in an attempt to correct the failed transfer, withdrew {$700.00} from my checking account instead of depositing the {$700.00} back. 
3. On XX/XX/2021 the recipient of the transfer alerted me to the situation that the transfer had not occurred. I checked my BBVA checking account online and realized that instead of depositing the {$700.00} back into the account, BBVA had withdrawn {$700.00} from the account. 
4. On XX/XX/2021 I visited the XXXX branch of BBVA in XXXX to have the bank correct their mistakes and deposit the {$1400.00} to my checking account. The bankers at the branch recognized the mistakes totaling {$1400.00}, and said they would work to solve the issue with the corporate office. By XX/XX/2021 BBVA USA bank had fused with PNC bank, and branches were not able to correct mistakes like these any longer. 
5. On XX/XX/2021 I emailed all information about the {$1400.00} mistakes to XXXX XXXX, BBVA/PNC XXXX area branches district manager. I talked on the phone with her and she also acknowledged the {$1400.00} mistakes the bank had made. 
6. On XX/XX/2021 XXXX emailed me to ask me how would I like the {$1400.00} transferred back to me. I requested the {$1400.00} to be deposited in my checking account. 
7. On XX/XX/2021 I was contacted by XXXX XXXX from the PNC corporate office, with whom I talked on the the phone the next day XX/XX/2021. XXXX advised me neither he nor the corporate office could correct the mistakes as they did not have access to BBVA transactions. 
8. As of XX/XX/2021 my {$1400.00} have not not been deposited in my account yet, and have not been given a date of when the {$1400.00} will be returned to me.
