Company: EAST WEST BANK
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Funds not received from closed account

Complaint:
EAST WEST BANK returned two 'so-called ' recalls ( around XXXX USD ) without informing us, also without checking our clear evidence shows the 'recall ' were invalid ( payer took a selfie with a clear statement can easily prove the payers lied to their banks )., which has caused us huge loss. 

Meanwhile, EAST WEST BANK said was going to return the rest of XXXX USD ( regardless we have submitted evidence from each payer 's photo selfie, which shows the payment was legit ). 

If a bank can return a payment like this, how can we trust the bank anymore? How can we guarantee the money in our account balance is belong to us?

Sub-issue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Complaint:
I opened my Citibank secured credit card in XX/XX/XXXX. After 18 months, the card was supposed to go to unsecured and I would get my {$200.00} deposit back. I contacted Citibank in XX/XX/XXXX to make sure everything was on track to have the change happen, and get my deposit back, and i was told by the representative that it was. I have never been late on a payment, and the balance had been paid off in full since XX/XX/XXXX. The security deposit was supposed to be refunded on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter in the mail today that Citibank reviewed my history, and they are keeping my account secured for another 12 months, and holding my deposit. My credit score is good, and my track record with them specifically is excellent. They are playing games and going back on what they said initially. Upon contact, the representative was not helpful, and said there was nothing that could be done.The letter also threatens that if I close my account, the deposit will be be held another 3 weeks to pay against any balances or pending transactions. Again, there has been no balance or transactions made on this card since XX/XX/XXXX.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
In my past credit card statement I found some transactions I did not recognize so I reported those charges as fraudulent to Discover in XX/XX/2021. The disputed amount totaled to {$1000.00}. Discover took 3 months doing nothing and concluded that those charges on my statement are valid. I have not received any goods or services delivered to my home for those amounts charges. No reasons or explanation from Discover why those charges were valid. It is absolutely unacceptable to be responsible for those charges with no goods or services received. Discover advertises " zero liability fraud protection '' but it is all lie and they will ignore their customers. Do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere.

Company: First Investors Servicing Corporation, Atlanta, GA Branch
State: WV
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan
Sub-issue: Loan balance remaining after the vehicle is repossessed and sold

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXXc my husband and I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX WV. I traded my car in for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Upon them running our credit they came back and let us know we were approved through a lender called Firsr Investors Financial Services. My payment was in the {$500.00} range. Upon signing the contract with XXXX, the Finance manager told us our magic word was going to be yes he told us that First Investors would be calling us and asking various question about the vehicle, such as Does it have running boards, does it have a sunroof, does it have a toe package? The finance manager told us the only way the loan could get approved is if we lied and said yes to all of that. Despite my better instincts I followed his advice. My husband was laid off in XX/XX/XXXX, we decided to voluntarily let the XXXX go back due to financial difficulties and we had already exhausted all our our extensions with First Investors. According to my credit report, our vehicle loan was charged off and sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX, however we havent recieved anything from them or First Investors stating where it was sold and for how much. Ive tried to contact First Investors via email and phone but havent had any response. According to my state, WV, limitations, a company has 2 years to get you the auction information on the balance of a vehicle thats been repossessed. My husband and I are still waiting. We feel like since its been this long it should be removed from both of our credit reports, and the loan contract we signed was for a XXXX XXXX that had all the bells and whistles, not the one that was repossessed.

Complaint:
The credit bureaus keep disrespecting the laws. I showed them multiple times of how they are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

According to 15 use 1681 ( 5 ) The credit bureaus said everything was complete and accurate and I asked them how if the open date is wrong.

Then I ask them to provide me description of the investigation according to 15 USC 1681 ( 7 ) and they never did. I have proof of my letter for that.

Also according to 15 USC 1681 s-2 A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

This is violation after violation after violation. This is causing me stress because I have no hope with this system

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

Complaint:
I noticed numerous duplicate charges from XXXX XXXX XXXX on my bank account. I disputed the duplicate charges on my account with my bank. I received an email asking me to cancel the dispute with my bank and was told that disputes are a breach of their terms and conditions and can affect the status of my account permanently. ( attached ) I responded and let them know that I would cancel the dispute with my bank if they would do the right thing and give me my money back for the duplicate charges. When I tried to login, my account was deactivated. I then received emails from their sister companies but the emails came from XXXX ( attached ) telling me that I have violated their terms and conditions and they have permanently banned my account. 

At XXXX XXXX XXXX  you purchase gold coins ( I suppose it would be a service because it is not a product that you can actually touch ) and then you play games with those gold coins. Because I submitted a valid dispute for duplicate charges on my account, XXXX XXXX XXXX has now deactivated and banned me. I no longer have access to the XXXX XXXX  ( services ) that I purchased. I want my money back for the billions of gold coins that I have sitting in my account and have no access to use them. I paid for something and I do not have access and can not use their service. 

I have tried to explain this numerous times but Chime does not understand or have any questions, please let me know and I will do my best to explain it better. 

They denied my claim and stated that I did not give them enough information to move forward with my claim, they asked for the purchases that I made vs the duplicate charges - I send this to them numerous times. All I receive is a blanket response that I should submit a rebuttal and every time that I do they say they don't have the information they requested which they clearly do have.
