Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: DE
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I noticed the collection from national credit systems following the end of the lease around XXXX  at XXXX XXXX XXXX. After receiving no information in regard from this collection from either the apartment complex or the collection agency, I contacted the collection agency. I was told that there were charges made by the complex. I then asked what these damages were and was sent an itemized report via email. The report included multiple damaged blinds, painting of the walls ( which did not occur ), a large hole in the wall ( which was merely a small scrape of paint missing due to a small metal piece that was sticking out of the top of the electric reclining couch ) and multiple missed payments which were made via money order to the complex due to the online pay system being down. I asked the customer service rep at National Credit Systems why I hadnt received any information regarding these charges and received no reasonable answer. I have picture proof of the state of the unit taken on the last day of my cleaning and walkthrough of the apartment. Im very displeased from the behavior of the company that owns the complex ( who are very difficult to contact ) and by the lack of assistance from the collection agency. The charge is a derogatory mark on my credit report and has made it impossible to get leasing into another apartment complex. The charge is for {$3600.00} which appears to be very bad when other companies see the amount and where the charge is from.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
I have been a customer of Bank Of America travel rewards card for 9 years. I had set-up an automatic payment every month of {$150.00} dollars. 

Today I found out through a letter that I have been short on the minimum payment for 4 months, since XX/XX/2022. I was never notified about this issue until I got the past due letter in the mail this weekend. I was charged {$39.00} dollars per month for the last 4 months. 

When I called the bank today I asked why they couldn't send me a letter or an alert notifying me about the payment that was short and why they waited me to be over 2 months past due to send a letter. They stated it was my responsibility to check my statements but I failed to do so. I asked again, why they took the step to send me a letter but couldn't notify me sooner. 

When I mentioned I wanted to pay the amount past due I asked if they could waive the 4 late fees when I actually did make a payment but it was short on the dollar amount. They said they would only try to waive the fee after my payment was processed. 

I felt very disrespected and they were extremely condescending. Then I decided to ask them to close my account and that I didn't want any more business with BOA. Then I asked for a payment plan or for them to lower my XXXX so I can pay my remaining balance accordingly, which is a little over {$5000.00}. They said there is nothing else they could do for me. 

Can someone help me getting these fees refunded? And set up a payment plan without these extremely high interest fees? 

I appreciate and thank you!

State: MI
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
The official AnnualCreditReport website is intended to be an easily accessible way for consumers to review their credit reports from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX each year. After entering my personal information on this website on XX/XX/2019, including my social security number, I was immediately notified by all three credit bureaus that they are unable to deliver my credit report online for some unexplained reason, and instead simply redirected me to either a phone number or a postal address. I could have reached out via these channels on my own without having to visit the AnnualCreditReport website and entering my SSN -- so what is the purpose of the AnnualCreditReport website? It seems to me that the credit bureaus are only on the AnnualCreditReport website to make it seem as though they are transparent and easy to reach, while they really are discouraging access to information by creating unnecessary hurdles for consumers to jump through.
