I. Introduction : I hereby submit a formal complaint against TransUnion for XXXX discrimination , retaliation, bank fraud, wire fraud, and violations of the RICO Act, infringing upon my rights under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ), the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and other pertinent federal laws. XXXX. Active Complaints with FBI, FTC, and CFPB : This grievance is not isolated. The FBI, FTC, and CFPB have active complaints regarding similar issues with TransUnion, highlighting a pattern of potentially illegal practices by the company. IV.

Wire Fraud : TransUnion AND XXXX is suspected of using interstate wire communications to defraud consumers, violating 18 U.S.C. 1343. Their actions have not only harmed my financial standing but have also illegally profited by using deceptive practices. RICO Violations : TransUnions AND XXXX actions suggest a pattern of racketeering activity. By accepting financial incentives for reporting, they may be in violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations ( RICO ) Act, specifically 18 U.S.C. 1961-1968. XXXX XXXX Discrimination : TransUnion AND XXXX has not only failed to unlock my credit report despite numerous requests but also appears to be discriminating against me based on my race, violating the ECOA.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Cashing a check
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MD)

This week, I received a paycheck on XX/XX/XXXX in the mail. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. So, funds are limited now and are needed when received, especially, with XXXX child in XXXXXXXX 
I attempted to scan the check as I did last pay period for deposit. Perhaps, the lighting in the area was not the best as I was in my car, so the check image was not clear. In trying to get a better picture after being prompted by Bank of America 's mobile system, I tried 3 times to capture the check images. After the 3rd time, I received the message that the amount that was entered and the total on the check did not match. I doublechecked and both totals matched. I clicked submit, and a 6-day hold was placed on my check, indicating that my funds would not be accessible until XX/XX/XXXX after receiving and attempting to deposit the check on XX/XX/XXXX. This was an ultimate gut check as I have groceries to buy, sports equipment to purchase for my son, and clothes to get for my children as the weather continues to break for the Fall. The rationale for the hold was to prevent me from incurring any unnecessary check return fees. How when the check is from a reputable school district who issued me a check 2 weeks ago and it was deposited the same way through the bank 's mobile app. This is an extreme measure of protection that does more harm than good, especially, when Bank of America does not have a human to reach out to you to learn more about the transaction. When you call, a message plays that they know you have a check on hold, and the information specialists do not have access to release any funds, and no one ever picks up the phone for hours on end. I took another route and attempted to chat with someone from Bank of America. This experience was even worse as the representative suggested that I just take out a loan. Wow! A suggestion to accrue more debt despite the late fees that will come with my bills that were to be paid with my paycheck this will that I do not have access to until next week. Do better Bank of America. No support and no empathy for customers. 

Calls were made on XX/XX/XXXX to rectify the issue. The chat experience where I was recommended a loan was on XX/XX/XXXX as well.

Im submitting this complaint against Experian, XXXX, and XXXX due to their total disregard for my consumer rights under the FCRA/FCBA/FDCPA, since XX/XX/2022 to present. I've been disputing inaccurate and unverifiable information showing up on my credit report by this company. I have requested intimate information about the alleged accounts, including a copy of an agreement with my signature on it, but I have yet to receive anything. These companies continue to electronically verify these " ghost '' accounts without providing any legally binding evidence, such as a signed contract and complete accounting of the record, as required by law. They're clearly lying and thus the reason Im asking for proof. However, these companies refuse to provide it, which is not right and is not compliant with the FCRA/FDCPA. Im absolutely fed up. My life has been in complete ruin as a result of this. It's causing enormous mental and financial distress, preventing me from getting approved from the credit that I am rightfully entitled to, and not to mention the ample amount of time that I must take out to try and resolve this matter myself. This has brought a great deal of harm to my family as a whole as well. Ive just had enough! Please help! I hope to hear from you soon.

This creditor engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. According to 15 USC 1666b it is a billing error I did not receive a statement 21 days before the late payment error. If finance charge included, there should be no late payments pursuant 15 USC 1605 ( a ) due to finance charge bring sum of all charges so I can not be penalized for something that is already paid in full.
