Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
Me and my wife were XXXX from XX/XX/2023 until XX/XX/2023. During this time our LOCKED filing cabinet was broken into and ALL of our personal banking information was taken and used to deplete our checking account of roughly {$36000.00} that was part of a Workman 's Compensation settlement. I'm sure M & T Bank will be able to look on their database and see everything that has been brought up about this case, including ALL the information and documents we have been sending to verify all of this fraudulent activity. We have been claiming this fraud case since XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is the day after we were released. Ive gone in person to file the claim and explain everything that happened and why its fraud. Ive filed with the XXXX  XXXX Police XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for the culprits that broke into our locked filing cabinet and stole our banking information. We even had a family friend call and notify M & T Bank of the fraud that was occurring and M & T Bank did the BARE MINIMUM to prevent it from continuing. We gave the XXXX XXXX Police XXXX Report to an M & T Bank branch in our area and even uploaded a copy to the CFPB complaints. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN DENIED BY M & T BANK. M & T Bank has acknowledged around {$1000.00} as fraud, but my family is still robbed of {$35000.00} FROM FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY. If nothing else is done on M & Ts then we will take M & T Bank to court. We willl acquire a lawyer and M & T Bank will also be responsible for our lawyer fees. We will subsequently file additional reimbursements for time and all additional expenses, including time required to take off work. This case is obviously fraud and we dont understand why M & T Bank would cause such a headache for a family that has been banking with M & T for over a decade. I look forward to a response. Thank you for your time.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My loan was sold to XXXX / LoanCare. Since then, it has been a miserable and stressful experience. Payment attempts take a long time to process. The website does not show account data in a clear manner. There is little to no support and the phone system is circular, seemingly designed to avoid you from reaching a human. I keep getting calls saying i'm behind even though the site says i'm current. And because of the confusing layering of the loan owner and loan servicer its difficult to determine where to login, and you frequently have to log in to both site to mange your account. The reps are polite but unhelpful. They ask you for your XXXX several time per call. 

They make it so hard to pay them.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX is reporting a charged off account on my reports that I have been disputing for a while. 

This account is reporting multiple inconsistent information between each credit bureau I dont see how when the bureaus get their information from the same creditor. 
It is the responsibility of the consumer reporting agencies to report accurate information on a consumers report. 

This account is verifying different active dates, payment dates and late payment dates. One bureau is reporting this account as 180 days late and the other 120 days late. If the credit bureaus all get their information from the same place, how are they all getting different information and able to verify these inaccuracies? 

It is clear that no proper investigation was conducted into this account and this account is illegally reporting. I am requesting that this account is deleted from my reports now!

These XXXX and XXXX cards are XXXX XXXX Merchant Carpenter Improvement cards. I called XXXX and XXXX who said I XXXX to talk to XXXX and both those do not know who I am. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these terms within 30 days AND put Disputed on my Dispute Status ( attaching credit report from XXXX showing Dispute Status : -- -- Account not disputed listed on all 3 XXXX account, XXXX account & XXXX XXXX Equifax : removed from XXXX & XXXX already ) gives reason to remove these items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so these should be deleted PROMPTLY. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for ligation which intent to sue was already sent due to the stress they caused me. my information was also impacted by all 3 Bureau 's data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person. 
I have sent a Validation certified letter to XXXX and XXXX. All i got back was a BILL saying I owe this and that. Per the FCRA they to present the Original Contract with MY Wet Signature and they did not ( also being attached ). This is why I know the Bureau 's have not validated anything because the Creditors could not validate anything to me!

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023 my mortgage went from {$650.00} to {$1200.00}. I spoke to XXXX from the Insurance department at Rocket Mortgage. 

I was told that my escrow amount for flood insurance was increased due to the fact that Rocket mortgage paid the entire condo associations a total of 21 units and billed it to me .My escrow account needs to be replenished due to this. Rocket mortgage stole money from me to pay a bill that was paid in error. The XXXX XXXX pays the flood insurance on all the units. Rocket Mortgage had charged my account for the total premium of flood insurance for the entire XXXX XXXX. They mailed a check to the Insurance Company to cover 21 units in this association. This was verified with XXXX from XXXX XXXX. ( see attached email ) So basically they did this in error and charged this to my account and they will not bring my mortgage payment back to the original amount of {$650.00} ( see attached new mortgage statement ). I am being told until they receive the money back ( money that I never received and have no way of getting ) my new mortgage payment will be {$1200.00} .Is n't this grand larceny? Rocket mortgage made a huge error mailed a payment to an insurance company for flood insurance on 21 condo units and they are billing me for this. This is insane. They refuse to rectify this error until XXXX XXXX mails the check back to the XXXX XXXX and the association gets it back to them. Why am I being billed for this!

Company: Syncapay, Inc

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Problem with a purchase or transfer
Sub-issue: Card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase or transfer

Complaint:
I currently have a total of four ( 4 ) virtual prepaid XXXXXXXX XXXX on a digital wallet, and the only cards I am able to add to this digital wallet are from XXXX XXXX who provide me a " token '' /code to redeem the virtual card provided. 

On Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I used one of the four cards in this wallet to make a purchase for a cellphone at XXXX by XXXX. The order DID NOT process and the pre-authorization hold was immediately released by the merchant. This is evident by the fact, when I call the customer service number to hear the transactions on the card, it states : " An adjustment of XXXX was made on XX/XX/XXXX '' For whatever reason, I am not able to view my transactions online as I should be able to and I have brought that to the attention of customer service. I am also NOT ABLE to add the card to my XXXXXXXX XXXX digital wallet as the FAQ 's state I am able to do. That issue I brought that to the attention of customer service over three ( 3 ) weeks ago and still have not received any resolution or explanation as to WHY I am not able to do so.

Being I am NOT able to view my transactions online as I should be able to, the only way I can determine what is and is not posted to my account is by listening to the automated system. 

My issue is the adjustment of {$81.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Whenever I have contacted customer service via telephone, or online chat, I am told it is a pre-authorization hold still, which, is NOT TURE. If there is a pending transactions on the card, the automated system DOES NOT mention it. If there has been a refund it states adjustment, and if there is a completed purchase it say purchase. 

I have asked to speak to a supervisor and EVERYTIME regardless of the time, NO SUPERVISORS are available. XXXX has stated to me on the phone and via email the pre authorization hold was immediately released because of the technical error. I want/need to have the funds released. 

Customer service has told me everything but the truth from, well because it is a XXXX it can take 60 days to be credited back to the account, when I have had other purchased refunded and the automated systems states the date of the purchase and the date of the adjustment. Ironically there is no PURCHASE of the XXXX transaction that I am complaining about and want access to the funds

Sub-issue: Don't agree with the fees charged

Complaint:
So I have tried and tried and done so year after year. I did not sign or even apply for a Federal Student Loan. I still think the School that I so called attended had something to do with this by taking advantage of me I feel the school Falsely certified my eligibility to receive the loan based on my ability to benefit from its training, I also feel the school signed my name on the application or promissory note without my authorization, or the school endorsed my loan check or signed your authorization for electronic funds transfer without your knowledge. 

After finding out I was an apparent student I withdraw from school after learning a so called loan had been opened in my name, I also think the school should be required to return part or all of this loan money.

State: IL
Product: Credit reporting
Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation
Sub-issue: Inadequate help over the phone

Complaint:
I was unaware of the {$230.00} debt, as I never received a bill. I tried to contact XXXX, who charged off the account to XXXX. I never received any collection materials regarding this debt. XXXX charged the debt off to XXXX XXXX XXXX, who supposedly gave the account to the XXXX Law Firm in Arizona. When I called the law firm and spoke with XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15, they have no records of this account. I gave them the account number that is on my credit report and my social security number and nothing came up with my owing any debt. I tried to contact XXXX, XXXX and Experian to resolve this issue, by either paying off the debt or having it removed from my credit report, but there is no way to speak with a live person at any of the bureau 's, as everything is automated and no customer service representatives are available to discuss credit disputes. I have no idea what I supposedly purchased, as no one can provide me with this information. My credit score used to be over XXXX and now it is in the XXXX 's, due to this debt, which is reported XXXX on my credit report, as XXXX charged it off to another lender, XXXX. Why do we as consumers have no other way of disputing these issues other than through the Consumer Finance.gov or by a letter being sent to these companies. The Credit Bureaus are causing a lot of damage to my credit score and I may not even be responsible for this debt. XXXX told me that the bill was returned from the post office as undeliverable. I have lived on this street for XXXX years, so I found this to be difficult to understand. I need help removing this debt from my credit report and will be sending each company a letter requesting the removal of this debt. I should be able to find out what was purchased, but no one can provide me with this information. If someone could tell me what was purchased and I did in fact purchase the item, than I would pay off the debt. I have never received any letters or calls from this Law firm, so I believe this whole reporting incident is in error. Please advise me as to what my next step should be. Thank you.
