Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Other problem

Complaint:
I am writing to you about a serious issue regarding Bank of America. My wife and I have been dealing with ongoing attacks by Bank of America : For the past year ( since XX/XX/XXXX ) Bank of America has frozen our accounts multiple times with absolutely no prior notice. We find out our card being denied when we are shopping. When we call in, they transfer us multiple times until someone asks us information about our residence, our jobs, and our citizenship. We do not hold dual citizenship. When they ask what is our nationality, of course we identify as XXXX, with our sole citizenship with U.S. ( meaning ethnically we identify as XXXX ) On Thursday XX/XX/XXXX they closed our credit cards with no notice. We called and went into the branch several times and they said they can't provide any information and the only thing they told us is that we are a 'High Risk ' customer ( we have perfect credit scores and have never missed a payment ). Then they proceeded to close our checking, savings [ with no notice in mail until we called in and asked them to send us a written notice! ]. Merrill Edge, a Bank of America company, also closed our Cash Management Account, and our Roth IRA.  Merrill Edge gave us a 1-day notice via a letter before closing our account. We have been bank-less for a few days now, and regardless this has caused a lot of frustrations. 

Can you please assist us in seeing what next steps there are regarding this matter? 

Thank you in advance,

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:
In correspondence dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I wrote a letter to this company disputing several incorrect information being reported on my credit file. I also wrote to several collection agencies asking for validation to no avail. I did not receive any validation documents and yet, this company continues to report those invalid entries on my credit report. I do not recognize the disputed items, nor the account opened date, closed date, highest balance, payment history reported and requested an investigation on each item. These pieces of information are either inaccurate, invalid and incorrect. Attached is a copy of my second letter I am sending this company today.

State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I have filed 3 complaints with General Revenue Corporation and XXXX XXXX has illigally denied my access to copies of any contracts, bills, statements or records that show that I owe any balance to Indiana XXXX or General Revenue. The only documents that XXXX XXXX from General Revenue Corporation are collection bills for the amount of {$450.00} and a collection balance {$90.00} totaling {$540.00} I believe your company has violated several of my consumer rights. Specifically, I have requested General Revenue Corporation upload copies of all documents already sent and any response to this notice through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Portal with the response- If you have the documentation needed legally and have already sent it in XX/XX/2019 to verify that this debt is owed to Indiana XXXX and that you have the rights to collect on behalf of Indiana XXXX . ( FDCPA ) 15 USC 1692f 809 ( A ) ( 4 ) ( B ) I hereby demand that you produce for my inspection, an original contract that establishes the existence of a debt to which I am obligated to you or your principal. 

General Revenue Corporation is trying to collect interest, fees, or other charges on top of the charges they accuse, is illegal according to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15- USC 1692f 808 ( 1 ) Unfair Practices- Not only have you ignored my prior requests for validation of debt ( proof enclosed- receipt copies or letter copies ), but you continue to report this debt to the credit bureaus, causing damage to my character. This letter will again request that you follow the FDCPA and provide the following : Validation of Debt Request Proof of your right to own/collect this alleged debt Balance claimed including all fees, interest, and penalties Contract bearing my personal signature As you may be aware, " Estoppel by Silence '' legally means that you had a duty to speak, but failed to do so. Therefore, that must mean you agree with me that this debt is false. I will use the Estoppel in my defense. 

I expect to receive proof requested above by mail and by uploaded response to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXXomplaint Web Portal, within 15 days of this letter. Should you again ignore my request for validation of debt I reserve the right to sue your company for violations of my consumer rights as indicated under both the FDCPA and the FCRA. I may seek damages from you if warranted.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I opened a vehicle loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I paid off the loan full, with a XXXX dollar balance, thus closing the loan. The XXXX XXXX XXXX account remained opened and showing a balance due, so I filed a dispute with XXXX, XXXX and Experian. I also filed a credit reporting dispute directly with XXXX XXXX XXXX to indicate that they were not reporting my account as paid in full with a XXXX balance. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX deliberately reported inaccurate and false information to the three major credit bureaus, in which they indicated that the account was still open and had a balance of more than {$7000.00}. I received a paid in full and lien release letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, from XXXX XXXX XXXX, in which they state that the account is paid in full, has a XXXX dollar balance and that they have released the lien on the vehicle. At the same time, they were still reporting false and inaccurate information about my loan account to XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX, despite their letter to me and despite the fact that my loan account had been paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX. After trying to resolve this several times directly through XXXX XXXX XXXX and through the credit bureaus, I got no where, and my credit report contains deliberately inaccurate information about my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. XXXX XXXX XXXX is knowingly supplying the credit reporting agencies with inaccurate and false information. My loan account is closed and paid in full with a XXXX dollar balance, and it should be immediately reported to the credit reporting agencies as such.

Complaint:
On Monday, XX/XX/2022, I received an alert from XXXX XXXX that there were a few hard inquiries that had been added to my credit report. These are the inquiries that were added : XXXX Credit : XX/XX/2022 - XXXX - New Credit Inquiry XX/XX/2022 - XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/2022 - JPMCB - Card Service - New Credit Inquiry XX/XX/2022 - XXXX  - New Credit Inquiry I have called all of the credit card companies listed and reported the fraud but was informed that no new accounts had been opened. I am assuming someone tried to open several cards in my name, but they were thankfully unsuccessful. 

However, the hard inquiries are still on my credit report, and XXXX and XXXX can not remove them until I have filed a dispute. I would like to have them removed immediately. 

Thank you.

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:
Experian is reporting an account on my credit report as having a 30 day past due AFTER account was DISCHARGED. The 30 day reporting has to be removed from my account according to bankruptcy law. 

However, if your creditor does not correct the status of your discharged debt, or if the CRA does not maintain an accurate report of your post-bankruptcy credit information, your credit may be unnecessarily damaged. When you discharge a debt in bankruptcy, a creditor can not report that debt as : currently owed or active late or delinquent or outstanding charged off having a balance due, or converted as a new type of debt ( re-aged, or having new account numbers, for example ).

Complaint:
I used Coinbase to trade XXXX, my account was hacked and all the money was gone. Hackers started to take money from my Coinbase account during the night while I was sleeping. When I woke up and checked my account, money was gone, so I tried to get hold of Coinbase which has no custormer service available, all you can do is to send a message online and get a ticket number from them. Then I started to search for Coinbase Hacked Accounts, and I was suprised by the number of people who had the accounts hacked, even more surprised when I found that that Coinbase has not assisted or refunded anybody, all that customers can get are bot messages, thats it! At this point, after reading so many cases, I dont even believe that Coinbase will refund the money hacked, I just hope that more and more victims can continue to report their cases so eventually Coinbase can be held reaponsable for many losses, including mine.

Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed my monthly statement from Lowes had a late fee charged. I called Lowes customer service number and explained that I noticed a late fee charged and that my payment is not late. I have my monthly payment taken out on auto bill pay from my bank. The payment is made the day before the due date. My payment date is the XXXX of each month ; and it is paid on the XXXX. When I call Lowes, they reverse the late charge. Unfortunately, charging a late fee occurred every month. I had to call every month to tell them the same thing ( late fee should not be charged. payment is not late. ) and when I was charged twice for a late fee, ( one fee for being late, another fee for not paying the late fee with my payment ) -- -they would only reverse one of the fees!!! Lowes has since penalized my account because they said I am late so often ( lie ) they have raised my interest rate!! -- -- I notice on my monthly statements, that XXXX XXXX is who takes care of the monthly statements ; I have a JCPenneys  account, too. XXXX XXXX is also the institution that takes care of JCPenneys monthly statements, and I have never had this happen on my account with them. I want this fraud attempt to stop -- -- I want my interest rate put back or lowered. I have not checked my credit report as of yet, so I do not know if Lowes has been reporting late payments on it, and if they have I want all negative remarks or statements removed immediately. one more thing, I initially filed a complaint with BBB, the BBB contacted Lowes, and I did receive a call once from Lowe 's around end of XX/XX/XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX ; and have not heard anything from Lowes since ; I contacted BBB on XX/XX/XXXX for follow up telling them I have not heard anything from them or Lowes, and they said to refile complaint with BBB.

Complaint:
After reviewing my most recent credit report I see an account listed for XXXX XXXX, however I see that the information listed for that account is incorrect and such incorrect information will further increase the negative impact on my credit scoring which is unfair to me as a consumer. Equifax has this account listed with incorrect DATE OF LAST PAYMENT of XX/XX/XXXX & DATE OPENED of XX/XX/XXXX. Why has Equifax not conducted the correct due diligence in reporting this account, their actions either negligent or willful misconduct can have caused an unnecessary further damage to my credit report and overall credit scoring.
