Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: GA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
PNC purchased our mortgage. We DID NOT originate with them. We had a flood in our home which caused over {$40000.00} in damage. Our insurance company listed PNC as party to the claim check for rebuilding. PNC made us send them the check and now refuses to release any funds even though we've completed the work and had to pay for all of it out of pocket. I ( the owner ) performed all repairs myself, with my own hands, yet PNC is trying to force me to buy liability insurance at a cost of {$1000.00} insuring myself against any liability arising from me suing myself ; which is absurd. Further, PNC claims XXXX law requires me to have a license to perform repairs to my own home ; which IS NOT what XXXX statutes stipulate. I have spent approximately 6 hours on the phone with PNC in an effort to resolve the issue. At XXXX point I spoke with a person named XXXX ( XXXX hours on the phone ) and XXXX said, after reviewing our closing documents and speaking to multiple supervisors, that I did not need the insurance and that I could make the repairs myself. Thereafter, when I called back because no check had been sent, the new agent on the phone started from square XXXX saying I had to have insurance and a license. It was as if the previous ( grueling XXXX hour argument XXXX call with XXXX never happened! At this time repairs have been completed but PNC refuses to send their inspector out to confirm completion of the work or to release any funds. Due to PNC 's illegal holding the proceeds from our insurance claim my wife and I have been forced to come out of pocket to pay for the rebuilding of our home and load up our credit cards paying for materials. We incur interest on that debt. A law suit is pending, however, consumers should be aware of PNC 's awful practice of holding your insurance funds hostage after your home has been destroyed by a flood.

I have contacted Bank of America several times to remove my email address from this person 's account, and service response has varied from " okay we will do that '' ( they don't ) to " sir, have you considered not using this email address any longer '' Again, I am receiving balance and account information for someone I do not know on my email address because Bank of America makes no effort to verify correct email information when setting up an account, and they offer no way to change or remove incorrect information.

Company: Google Compare Credit Cards Inc.
State: VA
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem

Complaint:
My Google Wallet account was hacked and two fraudulent transactions were made without my consent on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. These transactions transferred {$1400.00} directly from my checking account. I called Google Wallet support immediately upon seeing the transactions and explained to them that they were fraudulent and requested the charges be reversed. After many conversations and time spent on hold they informed me that the charges were not fraudulent and they would not be refunding my money. I told them if that was their final decision I would issue charge backs with my bank. 

I called my bank who informed me they could try to put a hold payment on the transactions. The end result of the bank issuing a hold on the transaction was the money being refunded into my checking account. 


After this happened, Google Wallet suspended my account, which also suspends your XXXX   Payments account. I submitted verification paperwork to reopen it which they did. unfortunately shortly after this, they must have processed the second charge being held at the bank and suspended my account again. Essentially they suspended me for the same thing twice ... At this point they refused to reinstate my account. 

The effect of this is you can no longer use most XXXX services, including XXXX XXXX, or the XXXX XXXX XXXX, since you have no way to pay them. All payments go through XXXX   Payments. 

I am now in a situation, after spending maybe 20+ hours on the phone with XXXX begging them to reinstate my XXXX Payments account, where I must find a new cell phone provider since I can not pay my XXXX XXXX  bill. I also can not use the XXXX XXXX XXXX anymore, which effectively makes using an Android phone useless. So now must change phone platforms entirely. 

All of this because they will not reinstate my suspended account so I can pay them.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I am trying to freeze my credit file with TransUnion in order to protect my identity because TransUnion and other credit reporting agencies can not be trusted to keep my information secure. While attempting to freeze my account with TransUnion I am repeatedly, both over the phone and on their website, told I am required to pay {$5.00} to freeze my credit file. This is in direct violation of Colorado State Law and TransUnion knows this is the case, as they display the information on the following website. 

https : //www.transunion.com/XXXX For the record, I have never wanted TransUnion or any other credit reporting agency to control and exploit my personal and financial information for their own personal gain. I think it is absolutely ridiculous that these companies are able to leverage my information for their personal gain and are not even required to protect the data I do n't want them to have in the first place.

I have been paying my bills to get my credit in good standings and they lied. I want it off my report now.
