Complaint:
I called to resolve the amounts that were told to me of XXXX and another amount of XXXX. I did not receive anything to show where these amounts came from. The gentleman who I spoke with was very rude and was not very helpful in trying to come up with a settlement amount. I asked to speak with a manager or supervisor and he stated that he was a manager. I understand that they want their money but 90 % of what someone owes is not helping someone who is not able to afford it. With all the sickness and deaths happening, I thought he would've been a little more compassionate. I know that I owe the money and I want to pay them but I am in need of a little help. Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: VA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Other banking product or service
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Complaint:
I was involved with a scam where a man, XXXX XXXX, somehow he gained access into my savings account where he took it upon himself to transfer {$16000.00} from my savings account to my checking account. I never willingly authorized him to transfer any of my money to any of my NFCU accounts. When I realized I had been involved in a scam I notified NFCU, after investigating my case, my funds were reinstated into my checking account. I waited for the " PENDING status to be removed ( thinking the money was " officially " reinstated to my checking account and then transferred the reinstated funds back to my savings account. 
In doing some online work a few weeks later, I realized NFCU had REMOVED EVERY BIT OF MONEY OUT OF MY CHECKING ACCOUNT without notifiying me that such action was going to take place, until AFTER THEY DID IT. I have bills on auto pay and of course they were rejected and I had to pay the ENTIRE quarter amount on those accounts because they were rejected due to insufficient funds. NFCU should have noted I had transferred the funds back to my savings account and removed the funds from that account, NOT leave me with XXXX dollars in my checking account ... not very professional. However more importantly they should have never reinstated my funds then just decide to take them back without warning or reason. 
I am a XXXX yr old female who XXXX XXXX and have been out of work for a year, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. I have significant XXXX issues as well as other medical issues and as of now a very limited income even with unemployment ..I feel like what NFCU did to me is just as criminal as what the criminal did! Reinstating my funds as they did, then just take it back without warning! It would appear to me a financial institution as wealthy and large as NFCU would not make decisions of this magnitude and then without notice decide to retract their decision without any explanation. I feel I deserve to have my money reinstated to my account based on their ORIGINAL decision.

Complaint:
On ( XX/XX/2023 ) I sent a letter regarding inaccurate Late payments, inaccurate negative accounts, bankruptcies and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. feel like i'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those negative items from my credit report as well as correct my late payments as paid on time. It has been over 60 days so they should be corrected promptly. I demand these negative accounts be deleted & correct late payments as paid on time immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.
