Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I'm a Customer of XXXX XXXX XXXX, I have an Auto lease from them. 
my account was set up on AutoPay and they were drawing the money each month automatically. the lease maturity date was on XX/XX/2021, so I called 2 times on XX/XX/2021 in order to extend the lease. XXXX approved my lease to be extended till XX/XX/2021. Since the Account was set up on AutoPay I thought they are pulling the money automatically like they did every other month during the time of the lease and since the representative on the phone didn't mention anything about the AutoPay getting canceled. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX and I've been told that everything is ok and the representative didn't mention anything about a payment past due and he just said that everything is ok with the account. after checking my credit I noticed a late payment reported on my report for the month of XX/XX/2021. I called XXXX to check what's going on they told me that the AutoPay got canceled since the maturity date of the lease was due on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX and therefore I'm late for over 30 days. 
I've been trying to explain to them that when I called the representative didn't mention anything about it and even when I called 2 days after the payment due date I've been told that everything is ok with the account and no action needs to be taken. 
I never had a late payment on any of my accounts I'm a very responsible person and I understand my financial obligations. please help me fix this issue ASAP. 
I'm planning to apply for a mortgage and it came to my attention that the missed payment on my record could hurt my ability to qualify.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Fee problem

Complaint:
Bank of America sent out an offer for {$150.00} bonus for opening a free checking account, which I did. The only requirements were direct deposits for three months, which I did. The first month 's {$25.00} service fee was refunded automatically a week or so after it was assessed. I was waiting for the second month 's fee to be refunded and then the third month it was charged again. I called to have the charges reversed but was told my account required a {$10000.00} average limit to avoid maintenance fees. The original promotion was deceptive, as I did everything that was required to get a free checking account and a {$150.00} bonus. BoA should not be able to get away with that kind of thing, they are supposed to be a large, reputable bank.

Complaint:
My name is XXXX XXXX and I have been going back and forth with XXXX and Experian for years. With Experian, my file is managed by XXXX XXXX. My issue is that I have left a 3rd voicemail for her and she has not called back. I am a victim of identity theft. I have sent over all of the required information and there is still one item on my report, in collections, that is a fraud item. I spoke with them this morning and they have the required information. They have broken the law because on a recorded line, I was told that within 5-7 business days, they would remove everything that was reported/disputed as fraud, once they verified the police report, which they have. They received the information, which I have attached to this complaint, on XXXX XXXX, 2017 @ XXXX XXXX  EST. All I want is for them to remove the XXXX XXXX XXXX Item that should not be on there that I disputed. That is it. 

I was told by XX/XX/XXXX that the items would be removed from my report within 7-10 business days. That has n't happened. I have also attached confirmation that they received my fax, on XXXX XXXX, 2017 in the evening. I am not pleased at how this is working out. I have also emailed every single executive 's email that I have found to get this situation resolved as well. My disputes are not a regular case. It is a fraud case, and the items should be removed immediately. I look forward to those being removed asap, as if they are not, we will be heading up to our local courthouse to exercise our right to be sued. Lets mention that my information was compromised in the hacking situation, so I may be exercising my right to sue in that aspect. I look forward to this being resolved asap.

Complaint:
There was fraud in my XXXX account. A purchase was made and delivered to a fraudulent address in California. 

I immediately contacted XXXX who said, " We can not stop or apply credit for merchandise that has already been delivered. Please dispute this charge through your credit card company and we will agree to the credit. '' Unfortunately, the product was delivered so quickly I was left without recourse. 

I filed a dispute with American Express who quickly denied the dispute and claim I am responsible for the charge. 

My first knowledge of this charge was a delivery notice to the fraudulent address. I immediately contacted both XXXX and AMEX, both of whom refused to provide credit for the fraudulent purchase.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
Equifax and XXXX are reporting incorrectly that I am 120 days past due on the XXXX accounts. Please see the attached spreadsheet of reporting bureaus and account numbers. Also, please reference pages 10 to 13 of the attached credit report. This account reports a {$0.00} balance and {$0.00} past due. However, they are coded as if I am currently past due in present day. I am not disputing any prior late payments, but rather the coding error. Please change the coding to I1. This incorrect reporting is harming my credit scores. Please keep in mind that it is impossible to be late on accounts where nothing is owed and nothing is past due.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Collected or attempted to collect exempt funds

Complaint:
I was sued by XXXX XXXX XXXX allegedly representing Citibank NA on a credit card debt XXXX case # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX . I answered ( pro-se ) alleging they had no standing as they did not appear to have been actually authorized by Citibank to represent them. Subsequently they filed an affidavit ( 149 pages ) containing my complete account records for over 2 years including the unredacted account # s and ID of various medical and other accounts. After losing my case and my counterclaim I was told by the Court that I could file to have this data redacted. This was not the case as I do not qualify for that and I am not permitted to have this filing made private as that is something only the plaintiff is allowed to do. I had notified XXXX on XXXX in my answer that I am a widow on a fixed income from SS and a small pension and exempt from any possible garnishment or attachment as I have no assailable assets. XXXX proceeded to obtain some sort of authorization in XXXX XXXX to actually represent Citibank and proceeded to obtain and record a judgment against me, as well as proceeding to file judgments in several other cases that were in the same Court that were still open and had no activity for 3-6 Months prior. It is my contention that XXXX had used the Court as a collection agent in many cases without actually at the time of filing being authorized to do so. In addition the publication of my account records including the names and account # s of various medical payees is a violation of my privacy rights under HIPAA.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-issue: Transaction was not authorized

Complaint:
As of XXXX, XXXX, XXXX has been taking money out of our Wells Fargo Checking account without our authorization. They have done this XXXX times, sometimes bi-monthly for about a total of {$1300.00} as reported to me by Wells Fargo. 
I contacted Wells Fargo on XXXX XXXX, XXXX to report this unauthorized withdrawal. I contacted the fraud department as instructed. The woman from Wells told me that we would not be liable for these charges. She said that Wells Fargo would cover this for us. She did a search to see the history of the charges and found that XXXX was at times taking {$29.00} BI-MONTHLY FROM OUR ACCOUNT. She then transferred me to another person on the fraud unit. I had thought that I was already talking to the fraud unit. The case number that she gave me was XXXX. The fraud unit Representative the told me that there is a statue of limitations and they may only go back XXXX months. He implied that we were at fault for not reporting this sooner. He said that it would take about XXXX business days to get a reply from Wells Fargo and that we may or my not get our money reimbursed and that if it was, it could be taken away. He said it could take from XXXX days to process this. He said a lot of research goes into this. We may get a provisional credit or temporary credit but it can be taken away..He then transferred me to his supervisor after I told him that we were not responsible.I told him that I did not know if what he told me about the statue of limitations is legal. The supervisor came on, and she said that she could not hear me and ended the call, whereupon I had to call back and deal with another person who then told me I had to answer several questions which I did answer. I asked her to please email me the questions that I had answered so that I could have that for my records. I have not received that information. 
I hope that you can help me with this as I do not know what my rights are with Wells Fargo.
