Company: Comerica

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Hi- Comerica bank on XXXX XXXX in XXXX michigan is attempting to collect fees not owed. On XX/XX/XXXX I went into the banking branch because they had closed my savings account for exceeding the transfer limit. When i went in I closed all accounts that day, 4 accounts, 3 checking and 1 savings. I told the bank enployee I wanted to close all accounts, at that time they gave me a check for approximatly 18k from my savings and {$400.00} cash from my checking. The bank is now telling me that the account was not closed on that day because of a pending transaction for {$20.00} from 2 days prior to me coming in and that the account was not closed that day and that the tip of {$6.00} I left overdrew my account. There was no mention of a pending transaction the day I closed the accounts. I asked to close my accounts they gave me the check and the cash and i left thinking my accounts were all closed, come to find out only 3 of the 4 were closed. Because changing my auto drafts to my new bank took 7-10 business days, some of those payments still went through to the comerica account which should have been closed. Now comerica is stating I owe over {$200.00} in overdraft fees on an account that I thought was closed. The bank has stated that they can not close an account when there is a pending transaction which is fine but this should have been comunicated to me rather than make me think the account was closed knowing that this could happen. Had they notified me that the account was not closed because of a pending transaction I would have come back in a day or two to close the account. The teller cashed out my account that day knowing there was a pending transaction that did 2 things, it made my account left open and opened me up to over {$200.00} in fees. I have perfect credit and have never disputed any charges, the way this bank conducted business was deceptive and resulted in fees that I should not be responsible for. The employee at the bank clearly knew I was there to close out all accounts and failed to do so, and failed to disclose any other details. She failed to notify me that she was unable to close the account at that time.

Complaint:
I have loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have always made my payments on time. For some reason, I realized that there were 30 days late payments on my credit report for the month of XX/XX/XXXX. I have read enough to understand my rights. The Experian Credit Bureau is required to verify for themselves, but they failed to neither verify nor update me about these complaints. I believe the company is violating Sections 616 & 617 of the FCRA. I believe theyre unwilfully noncomplying with federal law & this issue is creating a ton of emotional physical stress, as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] ( ( a ) Information on file ; sources ; report recipients. Experian shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer. If the consumer to whom the file relates requests that the first 5 digits of the social security number ( or similar identification number ) of the consumer not be included in the disclosure and the consumer reporting agency has received appropriate proof of the identity of the requester, the consumer reporting agency shall so truncate such number in such disclosure. & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] ( a ) Reinvestigations of Disputed Information. If the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a my file at Experian is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a creditor, the Bureaus shall, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from my file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or creditor. Id like this matter resolved ASAP as it is impacting my health & wellbeing. Please update the late payment from this account. Below is the account with erroneous information and Id like remedied ASAP.

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Mortgage servicer sent a letter of with intent to accelerate to wrong address and payments were not in default. We were paid up to 4 months even after foreclosure. This is not the first complaint to CFPB. The attorney that contacted me recently to respond to a complaint made here said she investigated sent me a letter saying I was confused but dates she has is all wrong even with proof they refuse to correct the wrongful foreclosurse due to statutory laws. But if I have proof of errors and they did not follow procures why can't any lawyer assist me? Why can't CFPB assist me? Under wrongful foreclosure. How can I get the assistance I need? It ook me 6 years of research and investigating because no one else would help me. I can not afford to hire an attorney. At this point the evidence will speak for its self but I will forward my complaint to all regulating agency 's so I thank you for your time but I shouldn't have to report this again if someone just actually look at my evidence and properly evaluate my concerns.

Complaint:
I am writing to express my continued frustration and disappointment with the unsuccessful attempts to remove fraudulent items from my credit file. This marks the second attempt to rectify the inaccuracies, and despite my persistent efforts, the fraudulent entries persist on my credit report, causing significant distress and impacting my financial standing. 

I have previously submitted identity theft affidavits, police reports, and supporting documentation to substantiate the inaccuracies in my credit report. However, it is disheartening to note that these efforts have not yielded the desired results, and the fraudulent items remain unresolved. 

The persistence of these inaccuracies continues to affect my creditworthiness, making it challenging to secure credit, obtain favorable interest rates, and manage my overall financial well-being. 

I request an immediate and thorough reinvestigation into this matter to rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report. I expect a detailed response within the exact timeframe acknowledging the receipt of this second complaint and providing a clear plan of action to address and correct the fraudulent items. 

Should this matter not be resolved promptly, I may be compelled to escalate my complaint to regulatory authorities and seek legal recourse to safeguard my rights. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$880.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$990.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1800.00} XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$880.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$990.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1800.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MO XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$990.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$1800.00} XXXX XX/XX/2022.

Complaint:
I am writing to submit a formal complaint against Transunion located in XXXX XXXX, FL. This company has consistently violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, resulting in substantial financial and emotional distress. To start, they have reported an inaccurate and unverifiable account on my credit report, and despite my requests for proof of claim as mandated by the FCRA, they have been unable to provide the necessary documentation. Despite my persistent efforts to resolve this matter over the past several months, Transunion has chosen to disregard my communications and legal submissions aimed at rectifying this inaccurate information on my credit report. It is disconcerting to note that there are numerous other complaints against this company for their illegal and unethical business practices, yet they continue to operate with impunity. The unprofessional and negligent conduct of Transunion has caused significant harm not only to my ability to establish credit and secure favorable interest rates but also to my professional standing and personal well-being. I urgently request your assistance in putting an immediate halt to these unethical and immoral business practices, not only for my benefit but also for the countless other consumers facing similar issues. I genuinely appreciate your time and assistance in addressing this matter and eagerly await your response.

Complaint:
This letter is to formally advise you that I believe your company has violated several of my consumer rights. Specifically, you failed to validate a debt at my request, which is a FDCPA violation and you continued to report a disputed debt to the Credit Bureaus : another FCRA violation. Not only have you ignored my prior requests for validation of debt but you continue to report this debt to the credit bureaus causing damage to my character. This letter will again request that you follow the FDCPA and please provide the following validation of debt request : -Proof of your right to own/collect this alleged debt -Balance claimed including all fees, interest and penalties -Contract bearing my personal signature As you may be aware, " Estoppel by Silence '' legally means that you had a duty to speak but failed to do so therefore, that must mean you agree with me that this debt is false. I will use the Estoppel in my defense. I expect to receive the proof requested above within 15 days of this letter.

Should you again ignore my request for validation of debt I reserve the right to sue your company for violations of my consumer rights as specified under both the FDCPA and the FCRA. I may also seek damages from you if warranted.
