Complaint:
after wallet was stolen on XX/XX/2019. i called all credit card companies including bank of america in order to avoid any fraud taking place on my accounts. once new cards were issues i requested for a security code to be placed on my account. with a security passcode on my account bank of america still accepted payment over the phone not done by me and had it reversed 2 times. after the first one occurred i called bank of america to advise of the activity and they did in fact state it was fraud yet days later accepted another one. now my account is closed due to their breach of security and inconsistent concern of my privacy. due to their negligence not only is my account closed but they are not re opening the account either because of those payments that they accepted.

Issue: Trouble using the card
Sub-issue: Trouble getting information about the card

Complaint:
A {$100.00} Mastercard Gift Card was purchased for me on XX/XX/XXXX. The card still has the receipt and was still sealed in the package until we found it lost in the back of a drawer. We went online to register the card on XX/XX/XXXX and found it had a {$0.00} balance. According to the back of the card, it was not expired, and even with inactivity fees should still have a balance of around {$75.00}. We called custimer service, where the rep told us that it had been purchased and drained in XXXX - a full year before it was purchased and also registered to a completely different person. They refused to help in any way, other than asking us to Fax a bunch of information to a number where we may or may not get an answer. We do not have a fax available to us, and no one uses fax anymore. This is a ridiculous request, on a card that was clearly compromised before even being purchased. They should stand by their product, and allow us to email a picture of the physical card and receipt proving our information is correct.

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
RE : XXXX XXXX XXXX At the end of XX/XX/XXXX, all of my taxes had been paid off through my mortgage escrow account and there was a surplus of over {$1100.00} remaining in the escrow account. I contacted XXXX XXXX who told me that this escrow surplus would be disbursed in XX/XX/XXXX because that's when my account 's anniversary would be. I called today because I never received an end of year analysis/accounting report of my account which I believe is required by Federal law. XXXX XXXX told me the End of Year statements should be going out soon. While I wait to receive the End of Year statements I need the analysis/accounting report of my account. The customer service rep told me the account analysis/accounting report and the End of Year statement are two different reports. I know I had a surplus amount in my account at the end of XX/XX/XXXX of about {$1100.00} after all taxes were paid and my current escrow account reflects this surplus. It's my understanding that by Federal Law, all surplus money in an escrow account needs to be paid out. I need to know why XXXX XXXX  is holding onto this money and why I never received an analysis/accounting report of my account to see all payments made from the escrow account. I believe this is referred to as the Annual Escrow Account Disclosure Statement. I had called and left messages but no returned calls from XXXX XXXX. The customer service reps at XXXX XXXX  are not all helpful and when they explain things it's very unclear and they provide incorrect information. As I said, the customer service rep I spoke to told me the analysis report and the end of year report are two different reports. When I check my account online through XXXX XXXX 's website, my mortgage payment has already been reduced by {$15.00} for XX/XX/XXXX, but I never received an explanation or notification of a change in mortgage payment. Thank you.

Complaint:
I called US Bank several months before I suspected I would be having a seasonal hardship and asked them what my options were before we had any potential delinquency. 

They recommended that we utilize the XXXX loan modification. 
They instructed us to not make any mortgage payments for 6 months and then the XXXX loan modification would take over, we would receive a loan from the government and our home would be refinanced. 

They did not disclose that this would come at the cost of them reporting delinquency and an initiation to foreclosure. 

We sold our home in XXXX and have been renting. We just applied for a home loan and discovered all of this for the first time. I called USBank and asked them to remove those remarks. They would not. 

We can't get a loan and we are currently homeless as a result.
