State: AZ
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem making or receiving payments

Complaint:
For the past several years ( since at least 2016 ), I have been battling with USAA in regards to financial money mismanagement. During those years, they have told me they are working on resolving this issue. I have several bank accounts with USAA, a credit card, Auto, and renters insurance with USAA. Each month, I pay a monthly bill to USAA to pay my insurance. Each month, the insurance payment shows as a pending transaction on my account for a very brief time. Then a few days before the ACH transaction takes place the pending transaction drops off the banking side of my bill pay account. For period of about 8 to 12 days before, during, and after ACH transaction ( with USAA ) the money does not show as a pending or paid transaction. I understand that during the process there should be a day or two that this might briefly occur. However, It literally disappears and does not exist. Then it eventually shows back up at a pending transaction for the follow month or months. The money is in limbo from my account for usually 15 days and the ACH transaction setup in my bill pay magically disappears and reappears every month. When it is there it shows the pending transaction and the future transactions for the next few months. When it is in limbo it is gone completely. The only record exist it paid history. I have asked USAA hundreds of times to fix this issue. I have file hundreds of complaints with USAA. This money mismanagement has made it so I accidently over drafted my account on two different occasions. 



Today, is XX/XX/XXXX. A few days ago the ACH transaction for my insurance payment due on the XXXX of XXXX disappeared from my bill pay account. According to my bill pay account, I have no payments scheduled to pay my insurance scheduled at all or pending from now until the end of time.. Inside my bill pay account, it clearly shows there is an ACH transaction scheduled for the XXXX of each month. I spoke with the executive resolution team ( XXXX ) with USAA today. She would not stop arguing and raising her voice with me. This is the common treatment I get with USAA. I believe USAA is engaged in money mismanagement and/or racketeering / embezzlement. I researched if anyone else is having trouble with USAA and found the following. 



UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY OFFICE OF THE COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY XXXX I also found that USAA was fined {$85.00} million dollars last year for 'Violations of Law XXXX XXXX  : XXXX. 



I am asking someone to look into this situation.

Complaint:
These 7 accounts ( attached ) were first opened in the XX/XX/1980's. I have been enrolled in several different payment plans and I have never once been late. ex : After I would complete a 12 month plan then I would receive information from so many different collection agencies instructing me that my account had been transferred and that I would be notified by mail whom the next collection agency would be. I always kept up my end of the bargain. Keep in mind I was always asking for deferment, constantly explaining my hardships. However, I completed every payment plan they set me up on and I believe it was a total of 3 - 5 maybe. I have been on a income based repayment plan for several years ( attached ) and I don't think its fair to continue to report this to the credit bureaus. I can not rent an apartment or even think about getting a job because this bad report keeps showing up on my credit. 
Furthermore ; these loans are from me attending several schools ; XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX.

Complaint:
To whom it may concern : After reviewing my credit report, I realized that my score was lower than from which I previously checked it. I was a victim of identity theft years ago so I have had a freeze on my credit report for a long time now to which I have been trying to remove for a while on XXXX. 

The account to which I had no knowledge of was : XXXX Account # XXXX for {$2600.00}. 
I had no knowledge of this account and never presented any physical identification for this account to be open. 

The account violating my consumer rights with inaccurate reporting : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX According to 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( XXXX Account # XXXX ), and ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) : The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

Also to this ( XXXX Account # XXXX ), each CRA is reporting a different report for this fraudulent account which is also a violation of my consumer rights. Sections such as when this account was closed, the account comments, date last active, and the payment history XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) are all reporting inaccurate information of an account I had no knowledge of which is improper use of my credit report. Which again violates my consumer rights. 

And this information is inaccurate. 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681b subsection 2, I never gave any written permission for this account to be in my possession nor upon my credit report.
