I had a Wells Fargo checking account. Over the past several months, I kept on getting charged for low balances in the account even though my average balances for the month were over the minimum. I guess Wells Fargo has a rule which states that if the balance falls even {$1.00} below the minimum, customers get charged for this. I had a direct debit attached to the account to eliminate the minimum balance issue, but to no avail. I eventually got fed-up with Wells Fargo and asked to close my account and get a refund of the balance which was in excess of {$2000.00}. The account was asked to be closed over 1 month ago, and I am yet to receive my money from the bank. I have called the bank many times, been transferred around, been put on hold for hours. Now Wells Fargo is stating that the check was sent to over a month ago. Furthermore, they have not told me why the amount it my checking account was not just transferred into another bank ( which was linked to this account ) as I had instructed them to them. Finally, Wells Fargo has asked me to send them a notarize letter stating that the check was never received and to wait 90 days from the time they receive this letter before they will reissue another check. 
I think this is unfair, unethical, and illegal. The bank basically has kept my money and continues to keep my money and expects me to wait for over 3 months before I can get it. 
I would like my money back from this thieving institution.
I have a brokerage account with XXXX XXXX. The firm is generally quite consumer friendly in most of its activities. However, every time a customer places a trade, they are forced to a screen that attempts to force the customer to accept Electronic Delivery of all documents. I understand this is what the company desires, but their methods are very poor. The screen offers XXXX choices, with the default that this and all future documents be delivered electronically. The second choice is the one I choose, which is this trade confirmation, and all future trade confirmations be sent electronically. The final choice is to send this confirmation by mail. These choices are prudent periodically, but the company forcing this screen every time is not right. It would be easy for the customer to click past accidentally, just once to the default setting that Vanguard desires. And by putting this practice is place for every transaction, Vanguard is willingly disregarding the choice of " and all future transactions '' by forcing the screen on every transaction. 

I have called Vanguard XXXX regarding this screen. Once was several months ago, and they said they had recorded my choice and the screen would not show in the future. However, nothing changed, and it still forced the screen selection on me after every trade. I called again on XXXX XXXX, and spoke with a representative who stated that my choice had been recorded and the screen would not be forced upon me in the future. I made a trade today, and the screen is still mandated by the company. I have no faith in Vanguard making any changes to actually allow the customer choice to be the customer 's choice. I feel that other customer 's are either making an incorrect selection at some point to get to Vanguard 's desired selection, or give up trying to make another selection due to Vanguard 's purposeful repeated asks that just wears them down. I urge the CFPB to research this practice of a financial institution creating purposeful annoyances for customers to try and not have them make an informed decision.
I attempted to file a graduation application during " no fee '' period but XXXX computer system did not work, would not allow me to file. XXXX charged me {$50.00} for graduation fee, but then acknowledged in writing that I was not at fault because their computer system did n't work. Merchant now refuses refund. I disputed charge with card issuer First Bankcard, submitting copy of XXXX fee schedule showing no fee due and the email acknowledging I was not at fault. The credit card person apparently either did n't read my letter or did n't understand simple XXXX, and arbitrarily disallowed my dispute.
Equifax was hacked and my information has been leaked including the answers to my security questions. They have offered 1 year of protection for free but that does not guarantee my safety as all it takes is the criminals to wait one year to use my information to open accounts in my name. With my security questions they could also gain access to my bank accounts as well. This is very concerning and 1 year of protection will not protect me for long and will not protect me from all possible damage or heart ache this will surely cause.
Bank of America has denied efforts to assist with a loan workout or modification of homeowners line of credit. Refuse to assist in refinancing or repayment plan, we have made several efforts to contact Bank of America to get needed assistance to stay in good standings. Instead of helping with other options or programs they consistently are harassing the elderly and are now threatening a XXXX year old senior citizen with foreclosure.
On XX/XX/XXXX I have contacted all 3 credit companies and the department of education about getting my student loans either completely off my credit report or partially off it. Reason being is because 2 are pass the statue of limitations. XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. They said that they will fall off in 10years. Ive asked them why 10years when its suppose to be 7years for it to stay on your credit report. Because its still on my credit report I simply can not get a house loan. All Im trying to do is move into a house with my kids and no one will assist in removing my student loans. I understand that I still will owe on the debt that I dont have a problem with but I cant not acquire credit with the student loans being on my credit report. The credit companies tell me they cant dispute them off and the student loan company says the same thing. No luck getting any assistance with this.
Experian has failed to comply with federal and state of California consumer laws. 
Experian has violated sections 611 and 609 of Fair Credit Reporting Act.
This company interest rate is very high on a XXXX dollar loan the rates is 675.88 % and fees every two weeks is XXXX and one payment miss it goes up to XXXX dollars iam like what thats not right and plus they using different loans id to debit my account and the force me to close my account because they said that they was n't legal and i need to contact the commissioner of ga.
XXXX credit card service declined my auto payments. When I called in they stated it was due to my card had expired. My card good thru date shows XXXX. They advised on XXXX they would issue a new card with an updated good through date reflecting XX/XX/XXXX. I received the updated card on XXXX only to have an even earlier expiration date of XXXX. If a card has a valid good through date there should be no reason why a card charge should not go through. They asked me to activate the new card which will expire next month. This does me no good by my auto payments will get rejected once again. The person who is not returning calls is XXXX and her number is XXXX. I 've reached out to her 6 times and left 2 messages and have not heard back.
XXXXHAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND HAVE RECEIVED REQUESTED DOCUMENTATION FROM ME REGARDING A FRAUDULENT AUTO LOAN ACCOUNT. THE INFORMATION HAS YET TO BE REMOVED FRIIM MY CREDIT FILE. THE INFORMATION WAS SENT TO XXXX, DIRECTOR OF  CONSUMER SERVICES
Diversified consultants has, on numerous occasions, contacted my minor child on HER phone regarding an XXXX XXXX XXXX bill that was past due ( and subsequently has been paid ). The XXXX time they called her ( during school ), I called them back and gave them my phone number ( STILL do n't know how they got her number ) and told them not to contact my minor child again and to remove her number. Since then, they have called her at least XXXX times. The bill has been paid and they 're still calling her.
It has been XXXX weeks since Equifax learned of a massive data breach. My data was among that potentially stolen. My state requires expeditious notification in the event of a data breach ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), yet I have yet to receive any direct communication from Equifax. Further, my only recourse at this point is to freeze my credit file, a service the company CHARGES FOR! Equifax failed in its security obligations, failed in its notification obligations, and now seeks to profit off a disaster of its own creation. 

Please use whatever authority at your disposal to force Equifax to freeze credit for those affected, AT NO CHARGE. I would also encourage you to push for free credit monitoring FOR LIFE. Roughly half the adult population in the US was affected. A year of credit monitoring is an insult. 

Further, please encourage the Congress to look into instituting a National ID with multiple levels of authentication so we can finally move away from using SSNs for everything. 

Lastly, this industry should charge its fees on the inquiry side. Consumers should have year-round access to their credit profiles, and convenient dispute mechanisms. My credit report is full on inquiries from companies seeking to sell me services. They are the ones that should be paying, not me. 

Thank you
Capital One Bank offered pre-approved credit cards by mail with registration code. I applied online and got approved for XXXX cards, XXXX XXXX ( {$300.00} limit ) and a XXXX XXXX card for students with {$500.00} Limit. I charged things and paid off the whole balance on each card less then a week or two after purchase. I applied for a business card and was approved with a {$500.00} limit. Shortly, before the business card arrived, I setup Automatic payments for the current cards. When I attempted to make a payment, which was more then the minimum payment required, they cancelled the account and told me to wait for a letter in the mail. The Business Card arrived and it was cancelled before I tried to activate it! The accounts are cancelled but remain opened for additional payments and I can only pay the minimum balance. This activity has dropped my credit score XXXX points in one month.
When we had a closing dated last XX/XX/2018, i have knowledge that my taxes from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX ( last quarter of the year ) was paid and included in the closing cost. But i received noticed and billed from XXXX City Treasurer that {$570.00} taxes was due on XX/XX/2018. I immediately called Rocket Mortgage to asked what is going on and contacted escrow company ( XXXX XXXX ) why it was not paid yet but i have not received any respond. I paid my taxes 3 days before i got the penalty. But now, Rocket mortgage still not doing anything to deduct taxes from my monthly mortgage and they still included the escrow amount on my Principal and interest.
I acquired a Cash Call loan for a XXXX time in XXXX 2011. When I was diagnosed with a XXXX XXXX and off from work I tried to work with them on deferring the loan for a brief period while I recovered. They were not willing to work with me and forwarded my account to multiple collection agencies. I contacted Cash Call after receiving an offer from a XXXX party company working on their behalf to confirm that after paying off the loan all Cash Call adverse info would be removed from my credit profiles. Upon receiving confirmation from a Cash Call rep I paid the XXXX party collection company and received proof of payment and a letter stating the info would be removed. To date, the information has not been removed. I have attached correspondence from XXXX party agency, XXXX who collected my funds, proof of payment withdrawals made from my XXXX XXXX account, as well as the new collection company XXXX XXXX XXXX who refuses to believe I paid another company. 
My husband took out his own account and the legal documents the new company is reporting has both of our names listed on a judgment submission. I should not be associated with my husbands account, this may be the account being reported. If this is the case, it 's not even my account. They are holding me accountable for his bill when I have already paid my balance off. This is also unethical and I believe this does not fall under the Fair Credit Guidelines.
I sent money to my account in XXXX on the XX/XX/XXXX and i got an email stating it will take 2 business days. Up until now the XX/XX/XXXX, the money has not been delivered.i have called several times and I keep getting the same response of I should be patient.
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called to pay in full the balance on my secured card issued by Discover bank and upon payment in full close the account due to a transaction problem that I had experienced with Discover on the same day. The customer service agent took my payment and closed the account, she further advised me that once I see the funds cleared at my bank I need to call back Discover to set the process of returning the security deposit back to me. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I checked my back account and the funds paid to Discover had been cleared at my bank. As instructed by the customer service agent on XX/XX/XXXX, I called back Discover. The customer service agent who I spoke with in order to get my funds returned to me informed me that my security deposit will be returned to me after 2 months. 

There are two problems that I see with this practice. The first, issue is that a secured card also known as a prepaid card is not a credit card in sense that no credit is extended for the funding of the account. The account is 100 % funded by the client, therefore, the account by its nature is no different than a checking or a saving account open with a financial institution. Discover Bank does not extend or make available any funds other than the funds fully invested by the client. Ergo, closing a secured card is similar to closing a checking/saving account where funds in the closed account are paid back to the client at the time the account is closed. Second, what legal justification does Discover Bank have for the unreasonable hold time on the funds for entire 2 months? Regulation CC clearly sets rules on how quickly banks need to release clients funds. If for the sake of the argument we assume that Discover Bank release of funds falls under certain circumstances known as exceptions and lets assume that the exception applies, the bank may only hold the funds for a reasonable amount of time. Although, that time is not specifically defined, it is usually accepted to be no longer than 5 business days. Therefore, Discover Bank 2 -months hold on funds shall not only be found unreasonable but also illegal. 

Lastly, during the 2-months hold of funds, Discover is clearly profiting one way or the other from the funds - either as keeping the funds in an interest-bearing account accumulating interest from the funds ( while not paying any interest to the client whose funds Discover bank is illegally holding ), or by landing the money to other borrowers. Irrefutably, there is a financial and ethical misconduct on behalf of Discover Bank. This practice is manipulative and it is clearly designed for profiteering by abusive hold of funds.

I had an vacant land mortgage loan with XXXX Bank which opened XX/XX/XXXX. 
I was never late until they bankrupt in XX/XX/XXXX and than during 2 year extensionuntil XX/XX/XXXX. Loan payments was {$220.00} and have told my mortgage sold and becamemature. All due about {$37000.00}. I could n't pay off. I have told " you will hear fromfrom us. Your account has been closed. We will returning your payments ". 
XX/XX/XXXX I have served foreclosure papers. They never took any action but just XXXX court filings. Around that time they start informing credit bureaus as a lalate with ( F ). They chanced bank name to XXXX and deleted all good paying paid history. So my score dropped from XXXX-XXXX to XXXX-XXXX with Open ( F ) andlate payments. Now account closed but showing XXXX late payments. XXXX pointsdown to XXXX-XXXX. I am disputing with credit bureaus to delete late paymentsbecause if I ca n't make my payments to my closed account " how could belate if account do n't except payments? Balance could go up but you can'tpunish me with saying late. XXXX and XXXX did not delete butXXXX corrected. Still playing with their rules for delete. Maybe oneday I can scoreXXXX points more than bankrupt person.
1. Referring to Complaint # XXXX, Seterus admitted wrong doing with their statement " When an escrow account is created for the disbursement of property tax and/or hazard insurance premiums, an escrow payment is to be created to repay the disbursements. However, XXXX did not create a regular escrow payment. Please be advised that we are unable to explain the actions of XXXX while they serviced the loan. ". 
2. When Sterus can not explain the actions of XXXX, Seterus has the responsibility of obtaining the explanation from XXXX before creating an escrow account. They failed to do it. 
3. The {$0.00} is simply due to round off to higher dollar when I make payments, instead of {$1800.00} to {$1800.00}. It has nothing to do with any escrow payment. 
3. Calling a non-escrow account an escrow account is a deceptive practice. Seterus can not produce a letter from XXXX to confirm it is an escrow account, because XXXX will not say it is an escrow account. 
4. XXXX simply put the amount in an account that will be part of pay off amount. The mortgage is principal and interest payment only. 
5. XXXX sent me a letter stating that the terms and conditions remain the same after transfer to Seterus. But Seterus violated those terms and conditions.
I deposited {$2500.00} onto Coinbase 's proxy website called XXXX, and they denied me access to their trading platform. This means that I effectively lost the money if they do n't refund it back to me. I tried to contact them several times to no avail
The XXXX credit agencies make it IMPOSSIBLE to get your free credit report. ALL their websites are confusing, and after you submit your forms they ALL give you an excuse about why they ca n't give you your report, and the excuse is ALWAYS wrong. 
PLEASE do something to make these XXXX companies COMPLY WITH THE LAW. 

Thank you.
I have 2 public records that I asked to be validated due to the new law that on XX/XX/XXXX all Judgements will come off. I have a Judgement from XX/XX/XXXX and a BK from XX/XX/XXXX. I am trying to get these items off if allowed by law. I have contacted all 3 bureaus and none are being compliant. It is hindering me fron getting my daughter the loans she need for her educational needs.
In XXXX I played XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I signed up for a membership there to use the facility aside from tennis and changed my mind. 
Within XXXX hours of signing the contract I brought in a letter expressing my desire to void the contract as I would not be using it as I was no longer going to be playing XXXX at the end of the season. The clerk, XXXX I believe his name was, took the letter and attached it to the contract. 
Here it is XX/XX/XXXX, and I am placed in a collection agency and apparently they were told the contract was signed XX/XX/XXXX. This is absolutely false, the agency does not have a copy of the contract which one representative told me she did and they refuse to verify it. 
They call several times a day and tell me I need to email them a dispute but have yet to give me the address to send my dispute. 
This is adversely effecting my credit file and I need it to be fixed immediately!
This company XXXX is reporting on my transunion in collections and I spoke with XXXX, this is an broken lease or owed money to a rent office or something of that matter the address on this is never been an address of mines so I disputed it once I found out. Transunion claimed to have verified it, however they did not prove it with any of my correct information this is not my account and never has been. Transunion had 30 days to prove it and they only said that it is valid. They did n't provide or have any proof. This is why I have fraud alert on my credit files

LVNV Funding LLC, has reported to XXXX that I owe them {$230.00} for which is absolutely erroneous. 
This an official complaint of dispute. 
1. ) The alleged creditor is a computer, that has generated this fraudulent debt of {$230.00}. 
2. ) The alleged creditor can not validate with an notorized " Affidavit '' that it is not a computer. 
3. ) The alleged creditor can not provide a singed agreement between the alleged original creditor to validate the claim that the consumers personal information belongs to the alleged debt of {$230.00}, in compliance with Fed R. Of Civ Pro 4, ( Probable Cause ). 
4. ) The alleged creditor can not provide a copy of the alleged original creditor, " Notice of Service '', in compliance with Fed. R. Of Civ Pro 4. 
5. ) The alleged creditor is in possession of the consumers email address, date of birth, SS #, previous home addresses, present home address, phone number, back acc info, and seeks to utilize said info across the state lines of Ohio and Mo, via U.S. Postal and or via internet to obtain U.S. currency, for which the consumer views as identity theft, libel, slander, cyber terrorism, tax evasion, money laundering.

I had my mortgage payment to XXXX Mortgage set up on auto pay from my bank to insure that my payments were always on time. XXXX mortgage apparently made a {$180.00} increase to for escrow fees I was not aware of this spring and sent my XXXX and XXXX payments back. I did not XXXX this until I checked my bank statement in XXXX since I am a busy XXXX this time of year, which means the XXXX payment was reported as more than 30 days late. I immediately caught up the payments with the {$180.00} adjustment and transitioned for XXXX Mortgage to auto withdraw to avoid this from happening again. I paid my mortgage on time, it was just sent back by XXXX and they then reported the rejected payments as late to the credit reporting agencies. I never received a phone call or email about the rejected payments and they have that information, which would have allowed me to correct the error more timely. My credit has now been destroyed for 7 years for a {$180.00} escrow fee adjustment and my bank XXXX XXXX has now closed both of my business credit accounts, which will further destroy my credit. I tried to appeal to XXXX in a letter explaining the situation and my good history of payments and just got a canned cold response that they are obligated to report accurate information to the credit bureaus. The letter said to call the contact with questions and the person does not answer the phone or return voicemail messages.
