Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: NY
Product: Credit card
Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint:
US bank advertises offers for business credit cards on their website and other affiliate sites. On XXXX XXXX 2015 I applied for a business credit card and a week later I received a rejection noticed with the following cited as the cause : " Residence is outside of trade area ''. I contacted US Bank and inquired about what this meant, the representative said that it means they have no branches in this area. I asked why then I get offers from their bank mailed to me. The representative indicated, that if the application had been submitted in response to a " mailed offer '' they would have processed the application, but because I went on their website instead, the application had been rejected. 

I believe that the merchant 's practice is deceptive. When an application is completed on their website they collect ALL my information, including address and phone numbers. If as a bank they do not review applications from customers located outside a specific area, they should not be allowed to send their mailings to such area and they should not be collecting sensitive information without first ensuring the applicant can be serviced by them. ( all it takes is an address script to be ran on their website and for the first information data set to be the address ) Anyway, the public should know upfront if they have service area restrictions, instead of pretending they can serve all areas.

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
I filed a fraud claim for a {$200.00} charge listed as " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' on Friday, XXXX XXXX, 2016. This transaction was done without my permission, and I have never done business with or heard of this company. I was told by the fraud representative that the provisional credit would be issued between 7 to 10 business days, because it was not a pin based transaction ( pin transactions take longer to process since someone else has your pin number ; signature transactions only take 7-10 business days ). 
I called in to the fraud department on Wednesday, XXXX XXXX for a status update. According to the representative, there was no case processor assigned to my fraud claim yet, and no provisional credit was issued. The representative stated that she put in a request to have a supervisor in the " claims processing '' department call me back ; no one called back. 
I called again on Friday, XXXX XXXX for another status update, but was told that the " claims processing '' department may short staffed due to the Holiday weekend ( good for them, but horrible for me because I have nothing in my account due to some card hackers ). I was told by an escalations representative XXXX M ( located in XXXX XXXX, Kansas ) that she would not be able to transfer me to " claims processing '' and that there was no supervisor above her that I could speak to regarding the issue ( even though the previous escalations reps that I spoke to told me to just call in after XXXX to be transferred to that department ). Nothing was resolved and it was the 10th business day. 
I called again this morning, Saturday, XXXX XXXX, and spoke to another representative that gave me the " claims processing '' department 's phone number and advised me to call in on Monday. 
Because of US Bank 's laziness regarding my fraud claim, it is now the holiday weekend and I have no money in my account. This is unacceptable. A thief used my debit card number fraudulently, and I am the one being punished for this. I can not even afford to pay my half towards the rent on XXXX XXXX, because the funds have not yet been returned. 
There needs to be some form on recourse for this ; I was lied to by XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, Kansas regarding speaking to her supervisor and/or the " claims processing '' department, and was told that no one was above her and that " claims processing '' does not have a direct phone number.

Complaint:
In XXXX, I was being contacted by an attorney claiming I was in trouble and would not explain why until I verified my personal info over the phone which I explained to send me a letter if this was true and I never received one. I was able to have this debt that appeared on my credit removed. 
XX/XX/XXXX, this debt seemed to have reappeared on my credit report. 
Im showing I owe {$300.00} to The XXXX XXXX XXXX but when I call this agency, they claim my account has been transferred out bc they can not find any information on me. 
I also see {$440.00} owed to National Credit Adjusters but I am afraid to contact this credit agency to inquiry about why they put unknown debt on my credit out of fear that they will continue to add fees to balance. 

Pls advise what I can do to prevent this company from continuing to add fees and also to make them stop from putting collection count on my credit. I do not want to deal with this collection company bc they are useless in providing info and continue to transfer me around. I want this permanently removed.

Complaint:
US bank for the past month has put a hold on my account due to a returned check. Since XXXX I have been having problems with them, they have closed a couple of my accounts without due diligence of verifying any information with me and have also opened account without my authorization under my name. US bank has been refusing to give me specific accurate information about my checking account. They were stating that I have a check that they were unable to verify, but it did get deposited and instead since they are not able to verify, they will just deduct that money from my account they are forcibly closing and then send me the remainder. US bank had restrictions and a hold in my account where no deposits or deductions were to be made, but they still let another deposit in the account and continue to deduct money without my authorization. US bank has been unprofessional and their communication about my funds that I work hard for has been incredibly a big financial issue and stressor.

Our XXXX XXXX XXXX changed banks. There have been two issues of someone trying to steal our identity during the changeover. The new bank, XXXX XXXX, is of no help. They can not seem to do anything right. I closed down the account immediately and the fraudulent charges were stopped in time. However, I discovered through my XXXX XXXX that XXXX XXXX reported to the credit bureaus that my address had changed. I spoke with XXXX ( where the change alerted XXXX XXXX ) and got my credit account and information frozen. However, this fraudulent address is now showing on my credit report. It is not my address. I have not moved. This person apparently tried to have my address changed. XXXX XXXX will not help me fix this. I want this fraudulent address erased from my credit report. How do I do this?

Complaint:
For the past several years I have been paying my mortgage payments via electronic payments from my XXXX account and never had problems with the mortgage companies receiving the payments. This time though Specialized Loan Servicing company claims they have not received my payment, which was sent on XXXX/XXXX/2016 electronically and should have been received by SLS on XXXX/XXXX/2016. We called them today with my XXXX Bill Pay support and although XXXX provided a support that the payment went out to the right address and account number, SLS states they did not receive the payment. It 's a messy and shady company with questionable accounting practices and arrogant customer service. I 've never in my life been late with any payments and I will not allow this XXXX company to spoil my credit. Please kindly review this matter and help me to deal with them. I just do not have any confidence that they know what they are doing. How the electronic payment can get lost or not received, if for the past year and a half was sent in the same fashion, to the same address and account and I have not had problems.

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
My complaint is against Specialized Loan Servicing ( SLS ). We were switched over to SLS a few months ago and it has already been a nightmare. We never received any statements from SLS until we were mailed foreclosure papers. My husband called up SLS and at first they were not even sure they had us in their system. What?! He was finally able to figure out the amount owed and we mailed it out thinking it was just a fluke. We, again, have not received any statements so, again, my husband had to call to see what was going on. We were told SLS does not send out statements unless we send them a request in writing. We are pretty sure that we are being overcharged as well but we have no itemized statements for reference. We are not sure what game SLS is playing but we feel this company seems to be setting clients up for foreclosure. SLS is the most unprofessional financial company we have ever dealt with in the 16 years that we have been home owners.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
Hi, Back in XXXX I had to get a new business account due to fraud alerts. That business account was the account I used to pay my cards with. I had auto payments set up to pay my cards but since I had to open a completely new account that changed everything. 

When I was with the banker he said that everything would go back to normal and I didn't have access to my account for 2-3 days. To keep the story short, I was never notified about the late payment or that I even had a late payment due. 

The other story was with US.bank with a car loan. I called in and declared them to send me the payoff of the vehicle. I sent them the amount that they told me over the phone and apparently it wasn't enough to cover everything. I was short {$110.00} on a {$270000.00} payment.

Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX ( before XXXX ), I went to a US Bank Branch to deposit my severance check and was told it may take a bit longer to have the funds available to me because of the size of the check. I pretty much ignored that because I know that the size of the check does n't matter. Once the funds are cleared from the issuing bank I should receive my funds. Unbeknown to me, the Manager on duty had placed a hold on my account where I would n't receive my funds when they cleared but almost 12 days later. All he asked me was if this was a Loan check since it was from a Mortgage company. I said no, that it was my severance check and I had n't been paid for two months and needed the money. He did note that the account was an employee account ( XXXX ). He did n't look at our account history of XXXX years of impeccable performance or do any research that would show large transactions from time to time were normal. 
Three days after the deposit, I spoke with a former coworker who received his check at the same time and his funds were available to him. I continued to check my account to determine if the funds were available and they were n't. We were forced to take an advance on our reserve line so the checks we had written and would n't clear before XXXX XXXX ( plenty of time to allow the check to clear ). 
Finally I called the Customer Service department to learn that US Bank did indeed have the funds from my former employer but would n't give them to me because the Bank employee placed a hold on the funds. He did NOT provide any type of rationale for doing this nor could any other person determine why he would do that given our credit and history with the Bank? Basically, this allowed US Bank to steal from me since the money was in their possession, they were earning interest on it not me. My belief was he thought it would be 'fun ' for him to watch us suffer further pain and embarrassment since I 'd lost my job and needed the money to cover bills. 
This is totally unacceptable discretion for a person to have this authority and not have to justify why they would place a hold on someone else 's money!!
