Complaint:
HSBC to provide CFPB and me with copies of papers where I cancelled the said ACH authorization. I want this paper only, and I do not want HSBC to submit to CFPB a lot of irrelevant documents ( which it always does ) to confuse the staff and obfuscate the case. 

If there is no such paper, HSBC must submit a letter of apology, compensate me for the pain and suffering it has inflicted on me for almost a year, and for ruining my credit. 

Separately, I request that CFPB review my complaints, confirm that HSBC bluntly violates the letter and the spirit of the Consent Decree it signed with the government ( below ), and ( AA-EC-11-14 ) where HSBC was ordered to and HSBC accepted to : 1- An Action Plan, for " effective mortgage servicing ... compliance, quality control, audit, training, staffing, and related functions .... '' 2- '' Develop and implement an adequate infrastructure to support existing and/or future Loss Mitigation ... and ensure compliance with the Order '' 3- '' Develop organizational structure, managerial resources, and staffing to support existing and/or future Loss Mitigation ... '' 4- '' Agree to deadlines to review loan modification documentation, make loan modification decisions, and provide responses to borrowers and report HSBC to the proper regulatory authority for further investigation.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Funds not received from closed account

Complaint:
So I previously filed a complaint on XX/XX/2022 Complaint ID : XXXX stating that Citibank closed my account which I had no problem with as long as I received my funds. I called multiple times and was told the same thing that the investigation can last 60 days and after the investigation my funds would be mailed to me in the form of a check. On XX/XX/2022 I received an email from Citibank stating that their decision to close the account was complete and as of XX/XX/2022 I dont have access to the account anymore. On XX/XX/2022, I called the customer service number to get an update on whats happening and I was informed that the investigation was complete but they have yet to release my funds and when I asked to speak to a supervisor they just hung up on me. Ive made numerous attempts but nothing ever gets resolved. I know they have a right to terminate the banking relationship at anytime no matter the reason but I have the right to my funds which they falsely marked as fraud. Not only that, I was told by a supervisor at a local branch that I would be put in the XXXX system for fraud even though I never committed fraud. If the investigation is over, they have no right to hold my funds.

Company: Selene Finance LP
State: MS
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
We finally received a response to our XX/XX/XXXX request on the deduction of {$1000.00} from our escrow account via XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Selene Finance admitted that the so-called escrow analysis was an audit of their records and reflected an error on staffs behalf with our account being credited with the {$1000.00} when we refinanced ( 2 ) years ago in XXXX. While this should have been told to us in the XX/XX/XXXX, correspondence on a rate increase with NO explanation, the fact that it took numerous e-mails, calls and correspondence from us - a three-month delay in an honest response is appalling. 

The redeeming factor with that correspondence was that once the error was admitted to, we were also assured that 1 ) Late fees would not be held against us. 2 ) Adverse credit reports would be removed and 3 ) We would be expected to pay the additional escrow for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX that we withheld waiting on clarification for the {$1000.00} negative adjustment to our account. We have fulfilled our responsibility and our payments are current and correct as of XX/XX/XXXX. 

Payment History Mortgage Interest Escrow XXXX {$600.00} XXXX Payment Ck # XXXX {$200.00} {$250.00} {$130.00} XXXX {$600.00} XXXX Payment CK # XXXX XXXX XXXX {$130.00} XXXX {$600.00} Payment CK # XXXX XXXX XXXX {$130.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX On-line Payment XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX On-line Payment XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Check # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Check # XXXX ( enclosed ) XXXX XXXX XXXX Unfortunately, Selene Finance has not fulfilled their responsibility! No adjustment has been made to our account for late fees. Payments since XXXX are hanging out there unapplied to our account correctly and billing continues to reflect that we are past due which in NOT true. 

All this grief was unnecessary they could have just admitted in XXXX someone made a mistake that needed to be fixed. We would have gladly agreed to the necessary increase immediately to insure our property taxes and insurances were covered with escrow funding. We have never been late on a mortgage payment in the past 12 years. We also never had such poor customer service. We asked last month that all errors be corrected by XX/XX/XXXX which has not happened.

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Complaint:
Hi there, My checking account at BBVA Compass got charged twice a Non-Sufficient Funds ( NSF ) fee of {$38.00}, totaling {$76.00} due to a scheduled bill payment of {$77.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. However, my account has a balance of {$77.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, which covers the transaction. I contacted BBVA and they said that " BBVA Compass posts transactions to accounts throughout the day, compared to other financial institutions which post at the end of the day. Our real-time system allows us to more closely match the posting of transactions to an account with the timing of the actual transaction activity. Since transactions post to accounts throughout the day, deposits made later in the day may not be available to cover withdrawals that post earlier in the day. An NSF fee will be applied on the business day following any transaction that overdraws an account or if an item is returned due to insufficient funds. '' This explanation is unfair and unacceptable to most customers like me. It is beyond our knowledge to know what kind of internal system a bank use nor it is our responsibility to know that. I have sufficient fund on XX/XX/XXXX to perform the transaction while got judged by BBVA 's unique system as insufficient and got charged a {$38.00} NSF fee. The second NSF fee is even more unreasonable. Because of the first {$38.00} NSF fee, my balance can not cover the bill payment anymore. And I got charged another {$38.00} NSF fee. During the whole period, there is no notification or communication informing me what is going on and on my credit card company 's webpage, it showed the bill was paid. 

Other banks I have accounts with, like XXXX XXXX, even if the account has an overdraft, they will notify me immediately, so I can transfer money in and correct it ASAP. Moreover, they can simply deny the charge if my account has insufficient fund. And it feels ridiculous to me that the second attempt to perform the bill payment transaction at the condition that my balance dropped due to the first NSF fee, which resulting in another NSF fee. It seems to me that its system was designed to charge as many NSF fees as possible. 

I contacted BBVA and requested the full refund of the two NSF fees, totaling {$76.00}. They only refunded one fee of {$38.00}. 

Please help me get the refund for the other {$38.00} NSF Fee. Thanks in advance for your help.
