Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
The gift cards were purchased at a XXXX grocery store in XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, PA. The cards in question were issued by BB & T bank. This bank merged with SunTrust and is now called Truist. I got the cards during the pandemic and just found them this past weekend. Both cost {$100.00} as they charged {$3.00} for the card. I never activated the card as the little sticker on the front of the card said to do. I called the number on the back of the card XXXX and the man said the card is only worth {$49.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. They have been taking out a dormancy fee of {$3.00} per month for 17 months even though I never activated the card. I called the XXXX number and they said to call Truist. I called them today and alas they said they have no record of any such cards! I asked who was getting the {$3.00} per month and she was at a loss for an answer. The expiration date for the cards is XX/XX/XXXX! 
The cards were issued by BB & T and are numbered as follows : XXXX XXXX Truist denies these cards exist! If that is true how did they charge {$3.00} a month? 

Someone is getting the money on the falsity of dormancy. I am a senior citizen and this needs to be addressed.

Complaint:
Earlier this month ( XX/XX/2023 ), I received notice from my mortgage holder, XXXX XXXX XXXX, that my loan was being switched to their servicing company, XXXX XXXX XXXX. Nothing changed about my account, it is still in good standing, except my loan was assigned a new loan number. This is simply moving my loan to a different arm of the same company. As a result of this arbitrary change, Equifax reduced my credit worthiness by XXXX points to a XXXX credit rating because it says my loan was closed! 
My loan was not closed, merely transferred to another part of the same company. 

This can not stand! I work hard to keep my credit rating in the Good range and this arbitrary change or miscommunication between the lender and credit rating service unjustly penalizes me. 

Please see that this is corrected as soon as possible. I need the good credit rating I earned to continue uninterrupted. 
Thanks for your assistance. 

The notice from XXXX XXXX states, " To help you get settled in, there will be no late fees or negative credit reporting during your first 60 days with XXXX XXXX. ''

i as a consumer is no longer by law responsible for this account after it has been transferred.

A bill without any form of verification does not validate the debt and anybody can send a bill and say its mines. According to the FCRA ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) has completely violated my rights as a consumer and I'm requesting legal action to remove this account expeditiously.

Iam a victim of identity theft. Only on my Experian credit file. I reported as soon as I was contacted from my XXXX XXXX credit watch service. I have never done had this happen before. I told Experian the account was not mine, so they filed a dispute instead of removing the fraud. So after that they let this same company XXXX charge my credit file three more times. I was shocked. I filed four police reports you have to file one for each incident, I sent everything to Experian they just kept telling me the company said its mine, and I needed to contact the company. I contacted the company after the first incident, the two people I spoke with assured me the account would be removed, none of my information matched what they had on file, I even wrote a email Thanking them for being so kind and assuring me the account would be deleted. I have been working so hard on my credit so I can buy a home, now its ruined XXXX points down. I dont really know what else to do, but fill the information out here, as well as with the Federal Trade Commission , and obtain legal counsel. This is my life. This was not me, I pay my bills on time every month for years. Please Help Me. Sincerely XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
Hello, My mortgage was transferred from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX to Flagstar bank. I was not aware of this transfer. I was made aware of the transfer when my credit monitoring service alerted me of a massive drop in my credit and I began investigations. The day i was made aware, I brought my account up to date and made all outstanding payments. I have an exceptional payment record to all parties. The agent who helped me let me know that " all the mail we have sent you has been returned '' and we determined that Flagstar bank did not have my correct mailing address. They did not include the unit number and thus, I was never notified that my account had been transferred. Flagstar had my physical property address All Digital communications from the bank ended in my spam calls from unknown numbers also were flagged as spam. 

I was transferred to customer service and they submitted a request to remove the negative credit memo they had reported, and said, " this is our fault as we did not properly notify you. 

The next day I was sent an email saying my request had been resolved and changes will be be reflected in my account. I called to confirm details of the resolution and was told my request was denied. After horrible customer service, I was told that this was entirely my fault and unless i can prove that they had the wrong address they could not help me. I am also confused as the statements that the customer service reps provided show XXXX as well as Flagstar.

Attached you will find the statements from Flagstar showing that despite having the correct physical address, they did not include the unit number which resulted in all the mail being retuned and me not being notified.
