Complaint sub-issue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

In early XXXX, I ran into some financial trouble because my PNC bank account did not update on mobile banking over XXXX XXXX. This overdrew my account on the following Tuesday and because I was out of town and not working at the time, I had to wait 2 weeks for a paycheck to bring my account back to balance. I accrued over a XXXX dollars in overdraft and NSF fees and have records to prove this. I called PNC multiple times and asked of anything could be done to stop this with zero help. I was transferred to a supervisor department after the 1st employees claimed they could not reverse any of the fees as the system would not let them. The phone rang once and I got an automated message that said no one was available and the call automatically ended. Never called back. Accepting that they would not budge to work with me or help me at all, I paid the fees and brought my account back to positive and moved on. 

Fast forward to today. The company I work for has decided to switch to biweekly pay instead of weekly. These past 2 weeks on one weeks pay have been awful and stressful. However, we managed to make it to Thursday XX/XX/19 without overdrawing. My account was negative XXXX dollars on Thursday XX/XX/19. When I woke up on Friday XX/XX/19 my account was negative XXXX because of a few small transactions that went through and XXXX dollars in overdraft fees 3 XXXX  dollar charges each. So, my paycheck finally hit the account for XXXX dollars on Friday XX/XX/19. Then at XXXX on Saturday XX/XX/19 I was charged 3 more XXXX dollar overdraft fees after my paycheck had already hit the account. Because my paycheck has gone through I did not expect this. I have so many bills coming out this week from having to wait 2 weeks to get paid, that I can not afford XXXX dollars in overdraft fees. This is my whole grocery budget for the next 2 weeks until I get paid again and I literally have no food in my apartment. I called again today XX/XX/19 asking for assistance in this especially because my paycheck had hit and there is no reason for the fees to be met with no help again and told I should use tips to avoid overdrafting. Enough is enough of this. Ive paid so much in overdraft fees that I can't afford to live. All I want was the 3 most recent overdraft fees refunded to me so I can afford groceries so I don't starve without over drafting again and having the same thing happen while I wait another 2 weeks to get paid. I have exhausted all options to avoid this. I have overdraft protection on my account. I have alerts sent to me when my account drops below XXXX dollars. The way PNC does their business makes it impossible to avoid this because it happens over night while you are sleeping and then to offer no solution to a good, 6 year customer is frustrating and disheartening.
Complaint sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Hi, thank you for accepting my complaint and for what you do. XXXX kept sending me billing notices for a mysterious order/item ( s ) and they refused to give me statements or the bill for them. I made requests in email and I have their emailed responses. They even told me that they can't find an account for me ( see their email ). They eventually put it on my credit report for {$110.00} and I disputed it and showed the evidence that it wasn't my bill and the entry was removed. Years later, they gave the debt to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY who refuses to remove it from my credit report. I hadn't ordered anything from XXXX and they never showed me a bill or receipts. It isn't my debt. Please investigate and correct this. 

Please tell me how to submit the emails between me and XXXX  thank you
Complaint sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

I sent disputed to XXXX, Equifax and XXXX for inaccurate information reporting on my credit report. I listed the accounts and told them Of violations they were making to my consumer report. It has been now over 60 days and have failed to respond. I am attaching a Copy of all letters sent below. 


This company has violated FCRA 623 ( a ) b ) by failing to mark this disputed account as disputed.

605 ( c ) running if the period has also been violated as the date of last activity on this account is reporting. When it should reflect the last date a payment was made.

This company has continuously failed to validate this collection account further violating FDCPA 809b per the FTC opinion.
Complaint sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Equifax did give the proper document for the account that I dispute and just said that it was mine without verify any information on the account that I am disputing they have past thirty day and that is volition of the law.
Complaint sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

XXXX XXXX Account : XXXX ( Nelnet ) Account : XXXX ( Credit Agencies ) Reason for dispute : First, the name is incorrect which is an error, that alone is a reason for deletion according to FCRA Laws. 
This is my XXXX notice to you and you continue to ignore the violations you are committing. I've also sent a letter out previously and you chose to ignore it and say this was coming from a credit repair organization, to stall I guess. 

Furnishing this information to credit agencies without my consent infringes on my privacy, degrades my credit worthiness, credit standing, and character. Regardless if you think its valid and accurate according to the CFPB and XXXX you are still committing FRAUD by using my personal information and sharing it with XXXX parties ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) without my PERMISSION OR CONSENT which is a violation. 

Pursuant to XXXX XXXX XXXX you are to respect my privacy as a consumer and you have not done that by sharing my personal information with a third-party credit agency. This violation is diminishing my creditworthiness, and demeaning my character. Pursuant to XXXX XXXX XXXX, any information solely as to transactions or experiences is to be EXCLUDED from reports. So this is another violation showing you were not supposed to give my personal information out. 

This is also an adverse action to me as a consumer and needs to be remedied immediately. By you sharing my personal information without my consent you are infringing on my privacy which is placing me in a bad credit standing. 

I asked that you remove all student loans accounts from all XXXX credit reporting agencies immediately. I will also be sending a letter to the XXXX for such violations. This is my last notice and I will seek damages if this doesnt get remedied. This is adverse and is damaging my creditworthiness. 

Account disputed : XXXX, remove from credit agencies. 
Account : XXXX ( Credit Agencies )

Complaint sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

I purchased a promotion item, interest free for XXXX, with my Home Depot credit card.

Complaint sub-issue: Account status incorrect

I went into the XXXX 's XXXX store in XX/XX/2019 and applied for an installment loan related to a product I had purchased. I had the supervisor and what appeared to be a new employee both fill out and application for me and I was given no information about the loan before I left just that it was accepted and the product would be delivered by the end of the week. A month goes past and I begin to receive phone calls/texts that my account was in default although I had never received any information via phone or via mail about my account number/first payment. I was able to contact a customer representative who opened a new account for me and provided me with all my information as she stated the initial account contract was written incorrectly. Since then I have paid off the correct second account, but the initial account that was written incorrectly and should have been closed per the customer representative was never closed and I continued to be harassed for payments. Every phone call I have had with them was one where I had to reexplain the situation and they would proceed to review the report and see that a no call status was on my profile, but I continued to receive call requesting payment. Since then I have also been charged extra for the account that I did pay off and was closed. My credit report/score has had incorrect information on it and been lowered due to this information. I am able to provide additional dates as well as chat logs/phone logs of when I contacted/was contacted by the company.
