Complaint:
This is a follow up for closed complaint # XXXX New evidence has been publicized affirming XXXX XXXX predatory practices regarding luggage charges. 

Request full refund of {$99.00} for these charges from credit card Bank of America which sided with XXXX XXXX and refused give credit. 

Details : XXXX XXXX charged for luggage that complies and meets XXXX 's luggage policies and fits under the seat. 

On XX/XX/ a charge of {$99.00} was made for a bag that complies with policy as stated above in a last minute boarding the airplane. 

Employee denied boarding the airplane if this fee of {$99.00} was not paid. As the boarding was rushed, it appears the bag got snagged on the verification box at the gate and immediately the employee sent my wife to the counter without say in a disrespectful manner to pay. The employee at the counter was in the same mood and no option do dialogue and fix the situation. 

XXXX claims I boarded the airplane and that I paid for services that were rendered. Its very dishonest to charge customers for services not provided since the luggage meets their policies.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint:
Two complaints 1. Number of calls 2.  Wo n't close account : I have a  XXXX   XXXX  card that I got delinquent on. Over a year goes by, account should be closed but it is not. I sent a written letter to  XXXX , along with the card, telling them to close the account and send a final statement. Almost a year after that, I am still receiving monthly statements steadily climbing higher because of late fees and interest. While this is going on, they are calling me up to 7 times a day, mostly 6 days a week. They are calling my mother in Alabama, my father, my grandmother, my uncle. And that 's just the ones I know about. I decided to try to pay the debt off on my own recently, sent another written request to close the account, saying I would make weekly payments until paid in full, and to stop calling me unnecessarily because I would file a complaint . Two payment s have cleared in a row, steadily getting phone calls from them, and they wont close the account. Got a statement in a couple days ago where I am charged yet another late fee and interest. My grandmother told me she got another phone call from them. She tells them there is nobody there by that name, but they continue to call. I am going to continue to make my weekly payments, but I want the account closed because if they charge a late fee each time of {$15.00}, my {$25.00} payment on a {$700.00} balance will never be paid off

Be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. 

This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named federal law. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. 

At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX or XXXX ) this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for at least the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes listing any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, then by law all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. 

I would also like to request, in writing, that no further telephone contact be made by your offices to my home or to my place of employment. If your offices continue to attempt telephone communication with me it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, the account did not appear on my credit report. However, it unexpectedly reappeared on XX/XX/XXXX, indicating a delinquent balance. This is inaccurate and a violation of the Metro 2 compliance standards. Specifically, there are apparent discrepancies related to the " date of last activity, '' " past due amount, '' and " date of last payment. '' I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against " XXXX XXXX  XXXX '' and the Credit Reporting Agencies ( CRAs ) Experian and XXXX regarding their unacceptable credit reporting practices. Despite my account with XXXX  XXXX XXXX being closed in XX/XX/XXXX due to fraud, these entities continue to report the account as active. Furthermore, XXXX refuses to address the issue, asserting that the account complies with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I believe this conduct constitutes a breach of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly sections 623 ( a ) ( 2 ) and 623 ( a ) ( 5 ). According to Section 623 ( a ) ( 2 ), furnishers must provide accurate information, which they have failed to do in this case. Section 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) mandates that furnishers report the delinquency date to the CRAs, which has been incorrectly handled here. 

Furthermore, this erroneous reporting violates the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus ( CFPB ) Regulation V, which implements the FCRA and has been disregarded in this instance. Under Regulation V, furnishers must rectify and update inaccurate information, a responsibility they have neglected. 

The inaccurate reporting by these entities has had a detrimental impact on my credit history and score. Consequently, it unfairly hampers my ability to access credit and other financial services. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and the CRAs ' ongoing negligence and failure to comply with consumer protection laws and Metro 2 compliance standards are causing significant harm to me.

I am asking for an immediate investigation into this matter by the CFPB. Also, I demand that the CRAs correct my credit report to delete the erroneous information, accurately reflect the status of my account, and ensure future compliance with the FCRA and Metro 2 standards.

The bank supplied me with a copy of my signature accepting the deferment option, which i don't dispute its the fact that i explained to them in letter form that after repeated attempts to get a better resolution, out of frustration i just gave up.

Complaint:
My Bank of America credit card was used for a fraudulent {$170.00} charge at XXXX XXXX number XXXX in XXXX NJ. My claim was denied by BoA because they somehow determined my physical card was used. This is impossible because I the card was with me and my card must have been copied or skimmed somewhere. I just opened a police report with XXXX XXXX and am registering a complaint with CFPB as this is outrageous. At the time the fraudulent charge occurred, BoA actually sent me an alert text message asking me if I approve the charge. This means BoA itself knew this charge was potentially fraudulent immediately! My claim denial makes no sense and others / BoA need to be aware of how long time customers ( since XXXX  ) are treated.
