Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (GA)

I have been unsuccessfully trying to dispute ALL these fraud charges for over a year since XXXX when i first inquired about these charges with Bank of America to XXXX starting the dispute. I have been a victim of identity theft and its effecting my business, banking relationship, and cash flow tremendously because im still making payments and on the hook for charges I didnt do. My cards were stolen and its been plenty of charges made that i am paying for to remain current client with BOA that I didnt do. Everytime we do an investigation the problem is BOA 's fraud department can only look back one year so the majority of charges are not even seen by rep anymore. Also when i first started this dispute the charges could be seen but you have to wait 90 days for an answer on disputes and its no inbound calls to this department to sort out so here i am another year later still disputing this because I cant talk to anyone in department. All the fraud has been removed from previous disputes on same matter and charges have been ruled fraud that they could see and investigate but the issue is the charges started in XXXX and they are not able to be seen now by representatives. When i started this dispute the charges werent properly input so I had to wait 90 days and dispute again, so then even less charges were able to be seen from the past. This is why im reaching out I tried to resolve with the merchants but i cant resolve because i cant get information on account I didnt create to authenticate the charges all i can do is prove they were done on my card. Literally every transaction they investigated has been deemed fraud and that i didnt do it and its been adjusted on my account from my previous disputes about this same matter except the charges from past in XXXX the representatives cant see anymore. Attached are all charges between XXXX XXXX that have occured that have not been addressed due to bank of america back end system only showing XXXX month in review. 

Merchants that fraud came from are ALL charges from XXXX, XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ends in XXXX my open fraud case is XXXX

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (TX)

On XX/XX/XXXX I used my Navy Federal Credit Union Visa card to get a Logo design from XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$59.00}. The company never designed the logo and stop responding my emails even after I was told by one of the " Account managers '' the refund was not going to be an issue. Everytime I contact their online support, I'm told I was going to get a call back. Never get one. 

Since XXXX XXXX Stop responding, I filed a dispute with NFCU. After more than a month they denied my request because the merchant said they give me the service. That was not true, I gave NFCU email and text copies of my conversation with XXXX XXXX which showed they are not responding to me. I also requested copy of evidence from the merchant provide but was denied. 

I requested a second review and NFCU will not reopen the case unless I have a written notice from XXXX XXXX that a refund is due. To me this makes no sense. I tried to resolve the issue ( my order was not deliver ) with the merchant and they stop responding. 

NFCU won't help with the disputed even when this disputed qualify for Fair Credit Billing Act and claims and defenses process because I never go my order and the merchant won't work to resolve the issue.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NC)

I was on my honeymoon in XXXX XXXX XXXX and on XX/XX/2022, I noticed one evening my credit card was gone from my wallet. I checked my bank account and noticed two large purchases/expenses I did not perform. One charge was for {$55.00} and the other was for {$430.00}. There were also two cash advance fees I did not perform. I have never performed any cash advances with my credit card, to my knowledge. The cash advance fees were {$10.00} and {$17.00}. My co-signer who has access to my bank account called Truist ( still SunTrust at the time ). Truist/SunTrust froze my credit card and instructed my co-signer to tell me to submit a fraud claim to dispute the charges. In XXXX, I mailed a claim form to a SunTrust XXXX address. At that time, all of my correspondence with SunTrust/Truist for the previous 6months had been with XXXX email. In XXXX, I still had not heard back about my claim, so I called the credit card fraud department, which informed me that Truist had contacted me. I asked them how they had contacted me and eventually we discovered Truist sent a request for additional information to an XXXX XXXX  email address Truist had not used to contact me in 6months. I asked the person I was speaking with if we could keep my case open because of this mistake, and they said yes, and to send a new fraud claim form. They informed me this claim would be received as a " rebuttal '' to the original decision, which was to terminate the case due to lack of response. Again, however, this lack of response was the fault of Truist, which apparently deliberately chose to use an outdated contact method. After waiting on the next form I sent, I called Truist again in XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, asking when and if I was going to hear back from them about my claim. I was told within 2days and within 10-14days. I also visited a branch in person in XXXX and in XXXX ; in XXXX, I was encouraged to wait a few days and call ; in XXXX I was told they don't handle credit card claims in person. One of my XXXX phone calls and my XXXX in-person visit prompted the employees to submit escalations/complaints, which they instructed would result in me receiving some kind of contact about my case ( s ). I have yet to receive a response to either. The very first phone call my co-signer had made resulted in temporary removal of the charges, but they all of course returned, and I am still being held responsible, without fair notice and explanation, or opportunity for a fair dispute process. These charges total {$510.00}. Truist offers fraud protection on my credit card, but appears to have done all it can to prevent me from being capable of responding to their time limits on fraud coverage and/or from receiving a fair dispute process.
