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 (WA)

On XX/XX/2022 the online ticket and lodging reservation system XXXX discovered that their stored payment card information, which included my Bank of America VISA card, had been hacked by an unknown actor ( letter attached ). I was informed of this on XX/XX/2022. 

On XX/XX/2022 there were two fraudulent charges to my above mentioned VISA account of {$910.00} from a XXXX XXXX and {$330000.00} from a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX copy of statement attached ). I have never heard of either of these companies and have never done business with them. 

I called Bank of America shortly after these charges were made to report fraud. The person I spoke with asked me if I recognized a series of transactions including the two above. There were six additional small transactions of less than {$20.00} that I did not recognize and which were included in my fraud report. 

Bank of America determined that the six small transactions were subscriptions and after reviewing them I agreed. 

HOWEVER, THE TWO LARGE CHARGES LISTED ABOVE FOR {$4200.00} ARE NOT SUBSCRIPTIONS. THEY ARE FRAUDULENT. 

Bank of America has repeatedly denied my request to have the two fraudulent charges listed above ( for a total of {$4200.00} ) removed from my account. First they claimed that the charges are subscriptions ( letter # 1 from B of A attached ), and I responded with a letter ( XX/XX/XXXX, attached ) explaining that the large charges were not subscriptions, but were fraudulent. Then they claimed that I agreed that the charges for {$4200.00} were valid ( letter # 2 from B of A attached ). 

I DID NOT AGREE THAT THESE TWO CHARGES ARE VALID IN MY LETTER OF XX/XX/XXXX. In my XX/XX/XXXX letter I state that I agree that the six small charges totaling {$34.00} are valid but I clearly make the point that the TWO CHARGES TOTALING {$4200.00} ARE FRAUDULENT. 

Apparently the person handling this matter at Bank of America has not actually read my letter of XX/XX/XXXX ; in any case Bank of America continues to charge me for two fraudulent charges to my account.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty.

Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries.

I have contacted the company before disputing this debt. Someone stole my information and has opened several cards in my name. The person involved was renting a room in my home and had access to all of my personal information. The person left my home without any notice and also had stolen my cell phone. During the time the person was living here, I didn't see any mail from these companies. The person living here was able to get the mail before me. I have contacted the 3 credit bureaus as well to try and find out information on why this item was on my account. This is causing a severe problem in my life.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing this formal complaint against Experian in hopes of seeking resolution regarding the reporting of negative claims on my consumer credit profile. I believe that certain claims have been inadequately or un-demonstratedly asserted, and I am deeply concerned about the accuracy and integrity of their reporting practices. 

Also, Experian said they investigated my claim and have " verified '' my inquiries only but they are still reporting inaccurate information My primary complaints are as follows : XXXX. Failure to Ensure Accurate Reporting : I firmly believe that Experian has not taken adequate measures to ensure that my consumer credit report profile is reported factually, ethically, and in compliance with federally-defined timeliness. The reporting should also be physically verifiable and validated, adhering to the mandatorily utilized Metro2 Data-filled Field Formatted Reporting Standards without any omissions or deviations. 

XXXX. Deviation from Established Reporting Standards : Based on my understanding of XXXX XXXX  XXXX manual ( see XXXX XXXX ), any deviation from the Metro2 standards jeopardizes the integrity of the data. I am concerned that Experian may not be adhering to these established standards, which raises questions about the credibility and reliability of the reported information. 

XXXX. Lack of Documented Proof : Despite my attempts to contest the reported information, Experian has not provided sufficient documented proof confirming the accuracy and compliance of the negative claims asserted against me. As a consumer, I have the right to demand evidence of reporting appropriateness and adherence to regulatory requirements

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.
