Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: AR
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-issue: Transaction was not authorized

Complaint:
I purchased a home in XX/XX/XXXX. The mortgage was issued by Bank of America ( BoA ). I then opened a checking account with BoA because they offered their Advance Tiered Checking account to customers who had mortgages with them free of charge. the fee for this account is normally $ XXXX/month, unless you have either $ XXXX in the account or qualify for free checking through some other offer, such as having a mortgage with BoA. Several years later, I think in XX/XX/XXXX, BoA sold my mortgage to a third-party servicer. I did not want to be serviced by a third-party, but I have no control over what BoA does with the mortgage. Apparently, BoA issued a waiver at the time so that the {$25.00} fee would not be withdrawn from my account since I no longer had the qualifying mortgage for the checking account. I was not informed of said waiver. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, BoA audits my account ( without telling me ) and cancels the waiver ( again without notifying me ) and promptly begins withdrawing {$25.00} from my account each month. I noticed this in XX/XX/XXXX after BoA had already taken {$100.00} in fees from my account. I complained to their customer service department but was told that they would only return {$25.00} and that basically I was out of luck and should switch accounts. Do NOT bank with BoA. They are crooks.

The account in question is XXXX XXXX for $ XXXX.Every dispute I have sent it their response has been that this account has been " verified '' as mine but shows no proof or documentation showing that it is mine.

Please also note that XXXX has already legally deleted this account from my report. There is no possible way that this account belongs to me.PLEASE HELP

Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
PERTAINS TO 2 CREDIT CARD ACCOUNTS Chase Visa Amazon Credit Card Chase Slate Credit Card As ofXX/XX/2020, I has 2 credit cards through Chase, Chase Amazon credit card and Chase Slate credit card, although the limits were high, I was still making sufficient payments every time and on time, without missing any payments, but as of XX/XX/2020 while I was still making all payments and on time. Covid-19 Pandemic outbreak happened and the SHELTER IN PLACE occurred, which closed down my work place employment almost right away, I called Chase and ask for any type of customer assistance of deferred payments program, or anything that could help considering that I was now unemployed due to the Covid Pandemic, a common answer most consumers were faced with. XX/XX/2020 I contacted Chase Cardmember Services, and explained to them about my job closing, struggling to make payments at that point, but that I certainly wanted to keep in good standing and asked what could they help me with? especially because they were promoting that online and on the news. 

They informed me that they closed my accounts that month!!! and I argued the same key points mentioned above, that I had been making all payments on time and sufficiently, that even though the limits were high and almost at a maximum that those cards should not have been closed, they answered that they decided to close it, my reply was that was too much of a coincidence that it was right during the pandemic and was became frustrated with their decision however, explained that due to losing my job from covid, I was now struggling with making payments. Then I set aside the bills and the collection calls assuming that they took note of my last conversation. The pandemic caused me to have to move to a less expensive place, and shelter in place, As of date, CHASE has been consistently reporting negatively lower scores decreasingly each month with lower remarks to the 3 credit bureaus and thus, my credit score has been dropping and decreasing by the month. I disagree with key reasons, 1- CHASE SHOULD NOT HAVE CLOSED MY CREDIT CARD ACCOUNTS 2- CHASE chose not to help me with any deferred programs even with Covid and the issues surrounding Covid, ie, losing job, struggling to pay etc.

3- CHASE continuously reporting negative remarks and due to them only, my credit report has fallen so poorly, its now effecting whether or not I can rightfully gain employment, since these days I am in spite of covid searching for employment but have been turned down from a job due to their reporting remarks. I was at one point XXXX and from them alone, my score is now XXXX.

However, despite these efforts, these fraudulent items are still showing up on my credit report, causing me extreme frustration and financial hardship. I need the following items removed as soon as possible : XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$130000.00} XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$6300.00} XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$8200.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$440.00} XXXX  XXXX Balance : {$120000.00}.
