Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OK
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Can't close your account

Complaint:
TRUIST BANK, which " inherited '' my checking account from BBT, has been violating clients ' rights for a long time. This is not my first complaint, and they refused to negotiate with anyone to solve the past one. 

The issue now is that TRUIST BANK IS REFUSING TO RESPECT MY LEGAL RIGHT OF CLOSING MY ACCOUNT. 

They got in touch once ( in the transition from BBT, they eliminated ALL METHODS of written communication, which I really know to be illegal, since I have hyperacusis and do not use the phone ). They were disrespectful and starting threatening to demand my full attention and compliance. This is just too surreal for me to comprehend - how can a bank be allowed to function here when it simply violates ALL their clients ' rights? 

My first request from you is whether you can make them obey the law and close my account. 

My second question is what will happen if I just transfer all the funds, leaving it with {$5.00} only. In one month, the account will be delinquent ( maintenance fee ). They will try to collect. Doesn't that configure EXTORTION? If so, how are things done in the US? In the other countries I lived in, that's when you file a report with the POLICE, because it is a crime. 

It is also a crime ( a misdemeanor ) to refuse to allow a client close their account. 

I don't know what to do, and I got in touch with other customers. They report the same issues and they are all trying to close their accounts. 

I will be waiting for your instructions. You have my permission to use any means to force this quasi-criminal organization to follow the law. 

yours, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report, To this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX, XXXX and Transunion data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Equifax has violated my right to privacy. They do not and have never received my written instruction to furnish a consumer report pursuant to 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). I have called them multiple times to explain that they do not have my consent to furnish a report and the information within that report and they are violating my right to privacy.

Congress has made it clear at 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ) that credit reporting agencies have ASSUMED the role they are playing in assembling and evaluating consumer credit. There is no law that requires them to furnish any information about me the consumer.

Congress has also made it clear at 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) that there is a need for consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with FAIRNESS, IMPARTIALITY, and a RESPECT for the consumers right to privacy. Equifax is being unfair, impartial, and they are disrespecting my right to privacy by reporting accounts and information on my consumer report without my written instruction. They have no consent from me to do this. 

They are also reporting fraudulent inquiries that I did not authorize. 

Equifax has caused damaged to me in numerous ways including emotional stress and defaming my character by reporting negative information that has not been verified making me appear unworthy of my right to receive credit. 

After attempting to resolve this issue with them over the phone multiple times I am now filing this complaint with the CFPB.

Complaint:
Im honestly stumped. Regardless of how many times I claim to be the individual writing this letter it seems this message is truly missed. For the record, Im the one whos initiating these disputes under my name. This item is UNKNOWN to ME. I dont get why youre claiming this is fraudulent or of a high risk nature. The documents Ive provided are legit. These are mine, filed with the appropriate agencies & support my position. Lets get the record straight!!! First of all I know that under Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, Ive never sent my documentation to anyone else which seems to be a claim that constitutes high-risk due to potential fraud. According to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute IsFrivolous or irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. 
Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15U.S.C. 1681o ] a person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
There's great concern regarding inaccurate information that has persistently appeared on my credit profile. I have diligently disputed these inaccuracies in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) on more than three  occasions. Despite my efforts and the clear violations of these laws, the concerns have been consistently ignored. This prolonged period of inaccurate information on her client credit report has had a detrimental financial impact on her life. 

It's worth noting that 15 U.S. Code 1681, which outlines Congressional findings and the statement of purpose, emphasizes the importance of accuracy and fairness in credit reporting. The intent of the law is to ensure that credit reporting agencies maintain the accuracy of consumer information. Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681b mandates that credit reporting agencies must employ reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of the information they collect and report. 

Pay attention that 15 US CODE 1681i stipulates that credit reporting agencies are obligated to delete inaccurate information from consumers ' credit reports. Furthermore, 15 US CODE 1681 emphasizes the importance of privacy in credit reporting, and 15 USC 1681s-2 explicitly prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information related to a consumer if there is knowledge or reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

Additionally, 15 US CODE 1681e-b mandates that any collection or account information must be 100 % accurate across all credit reporting agencies. Please take immediate action to rectify these violations, remove the inaccurate information from credit report, and ensure that her rights as a consumer are upheld in accordance with these legal provisions. 

*** Understand 15 usc 1681 section 604 ensures her that you need her written instructions, my client stated that she never gave you her written consent or oral consent 15 U.S. Code 1681a, and last but not least you violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports.

Product: Credit card
Issue: Closing/Cancelling account

Complaint:
I opened a business credit card account with Union Bank and XXXX last year with cards for my employees. I do not have a card because I do n't need XXXX. 
In XXXX of this year they sold my account to a new servicer but did n't include my information as the account and business owner. Since then I have been trying to pay my bill, but I ca n't access the account because I do n't have a card and the new servicing company, XXXX XXXX, requires that I make a new credit application in order to be added to the account and gain access - to an account I already applied for and already own. 

- The account sale happened without me being notified - Once the account sale happended, my balances are being incorrectly displayed on my online account - when my payment was due, I asked that it be paid and a much larger balance was taken from my account than was showed in online banking - I am not allowed to access the accounts by phone or online even though I am the financially responsible party - the new financial institution/account owner has said that they are going to require me to make a new application, force me to provide my SSN and other non-public data to a company with whom I do n't wish to have a relationship, whom I do n't have a privacy policy for and who has n't been willing to give me access to an account that I technically already own anyway.
