Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: PNC Bank N.A. (PA)

On XX/XX/XXXX I had a payment withdrawn in the amount of {$390.00} which over drafted my account. The payment was reversed and I was charged a fee of {$36.00} by PNCBank, I was also charged by a {$25.00} fee by XXXX because of the rejected payment. In my opinion I rarely overdraft my account, however, in the few times it has happened in the past PNC has always covered the transactions. <P/>I contacted PNC on XX/XX/XXXX to ask why the payment was rejected this time when they have always covered any similar transactions in the past. I was provided inconsistent and inaccurate information by the representative. The only thing consistent about the call was that I was provided a different answer each time I asked a question. As a side note the service was absolutely horrible! The agent muffled things under her breath about me like " oh man '' and then when I asked to speak with a supervisor, she told me she would connect me with her team lead and instead disconnected the call. I have now waited a full 24 hrs expecting a follow up call, but unfortunately have not received one. <P/>The agent advised me that no policy had changed and that PNC has never covered a check overdraft on my account. She even told me that even if the overdraft was less than {$50.00} that it would have been declined. I then provided dates of similar transactions that had not been rejected and her response was basically that it just depends. She would not provide any type of direct answer as to why this payment was rejected and I have no confidence that anything she told me was accurate. <P/>The main reason for my call was to know why the payment was rejected so that I know what would happen if a similar situation arose in the future. I still have no idea as to the answer. I did also ask for the fee to be reimbursed as a courtesy which did not happen. I feel {$36.00} as basically a processing fee to decline a payment is beyond excessive. This is especially true since because the payment was rejected and I was charged an additional {$25.00} by XXXX. <P/>PNC is obviously aware when someone is experiencing financial difficulty when they are overdrawn, instead of trying to assist, they charge excessive fees that makes it even more difficult for someone in an already difficult situation. <P/>I do plan on closing my account with PNC as a result of this recent experience, however, I still wanted to make the CFPB and PNCBank aware that if the agent I spoke with is the typical agent, then the call center has no idea how an over draft works, how to look up account history and how the current policy works. Additionally, I ask that they review the call from XX/XX/XXXX as the agent I spoke with at the very least needs some coaching on professionalism and customer service.

OnXX/XX/XXXX I was flagged on XXXX XXXX that I tried opening an XXXX card through XXXX. I had not done this. So I immediately called XXXX and explained the situation. They said it was denied and they would send it to their fraud department. My next error was thinking that maybe someone transposed a couple numbers and I shrugged it off. After all they said they would send it to their fraud Dept. On XX/XX/XXXX the same thing happened. So I again immediately called XXXX. They told me the same things as the first time. I said why is the first hard inquiry still on my credit. I was told it could take 90 days for it to be removed and they had sent the first request to the credit bureaus. So my next step was contacting XXXX. They told me that it does not take 90 days, that it would only take 5 or 6 days once the request was received, however they had never gotten a request. Now at this point I was steaming. The gentleman at XXXX told me to call back XXXX and ask them to send me a letter requesting it be removed. He gave me a fax where I could send it to have the hard inquiries removed. I called XXXX and demanded they send the letter to me. After some hemming and hawing the woman agreed. Said I would get it within 7 days. What I got was " NOT '' the request to remove it. So I again called XXXX and told them I wanted the letter that they said they would normally send to the credit bureaus sent to me. She did n't want to do this, so I got very abrupt and told her I demanded they do this because it was bringing my credit scores down. She finally agreed and said I would get it within 7 days. It 's now been two and a half weeks and no letter has come. I am so angry because my XXXX  score just went down again because now the second hard inquiry is there. Please someone help me with this. I have put a freeze on all three credit bureaus but I should not have to deal with this nonsense. XXXX is in no way concerned about this and it 's fraud.

Company: Clark County Collection Service (NV)

I checked my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX when I saw a collection from Clark County Collection ( 10 NV ENERGY ). I immediately disputed the reported information as invalid since I initially thought it was related to a missed payment. However, after further investigation I learned that the account in dispute was for an unknown address. Further, I filed police reports with the XXXX XXXX XXXX Police Department for accounts opened with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. The investigation took over 6 months and was dismissed the Clark County Collection ( aka ) XXXX XXXX as Valid since, I did not have a POLICE REPORT attached to the complaint, rather a complaint number ( which I was given ). I received a letter from XXXX XXXX stating that the Identity Theft complaint was closed because I submitted the complaint number. BOTH fraudulent accounts were billed to address I do n't live at nor, have I ever lived there and the suspect was named however, the Police failed to arrest the individual stating that they denied the theft. I too XXXX statutorily too long to resolve the complaint and they have not provided any evidence of how they verified the authenticity of the accounts as required by law. Subsequently, I want the item removed from My CREDIT report

Hello, we have had our mortgage with citi mortgage for just over two years. Our original mortgage payment has just been increased from XXXX to XXXX for this year. We have a 30 year fixed. Our previous taxes were XXXX due to the star program. The star program ended by the state so instead of applying it monthly we get a lump sum check in the mail each year. Our mortgage company due to star program ending is veiwing our taxes as a shortage in escrow for last year which is fine, I understand our mortgage going up to cover the XXXX extra shortage from last year, our homeowners did increase this year to an extra XXXX per month. However this year our taxes went down by XXXX which we provided proof to citi mortgage. Citi Morgage has raised our mortgage by XXXX per month and they can not explain why. My wife and I have called and we keep getting different answers, none of which make any sense. They refused to provide anything in writing describing their changes. They even agreed that their calculations seemed off but still wo n't change. I understand my mortgage going up XXXX to cover the increase and shortage from last year but they are asking for a " cushion just in case our taxes go up again '' which we provided them proof they have not. I want to pay the fair amount for my mortgage not an extra XXXX dollars because they feel like it. This new payment goes into affect XXXX XXXX I would like this matter resolved as soon as possible and Citi Mortgage to be held accountable for the unexplained charges.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

I have dealt with a few of the credit card companies, including XXXX XXXX who had been uncooperative at times with a negative item which had been on my report for 7 years. This occurred in XX/XX/XXXX, during which at this time I have established new credit. The negative item was on or around XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I called all three credit bureaus trying to get negative inquiries removed, and all three were uncooperative, so I called XXXX XXXX an agency that helps remove negative items. I do not work full time I am on XXXX, I also had been receiving loan applications from the credit bureaus tempting me to apply, and I did for a few because of my credit card debt, I wanted to get a loan to pay them down and make one payment, they never told me that it would be a hard pull and it ruined my credit score. All of my accounts are paid on time. I also tried to opt out and they continued sending loan applications. I also have a complaint about the companies, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX who I have been a long time consumer. XXXX offered me a credit limit of {$6000.00} dollars and I have tried to get a loan through them and they turn me down because of my income which is from XXXX. Even though I have struggled I am a responsible person and pay them every month. I had called XXXX XXXX XXXX late at night and got a man on the phone who was more than rude, yelling at me saying that I did n't provide any information and that was a lie, I told him my name, and everything he asked I answered it, he continued to yell at me until I asked for a Supervisor. He apologized for the person 's behavior. Whenever I apply for credit, these are a part of the reasons, Proportion of revolving balances to revolving credit is too high. Lack of recent information on installment accounts. ( I do n't even have a current loan ) I had one in the past with XXXX XXXX XXXX and they never reported the loan as payed off. Another was, too many inquiries in the last 12 months. ( I explained that to a customer service person at one of the credit bureaus, I believe it was XXXX that I have an addiction and am getting help in therapy. Not sure if they believed that but it is the truth. I mentioned earlier that I wanted to opt out because I did n't want to be tempted to apply for any new credit and that was the reason why. I have been treated unfairly with no resolution.

Account # XXXX & Account # XXXX I have had 3 loans with XXXX. One I closed out very early, due to problems. The othe 2 loans, I always paid a few years in advance. As the loans became due again, I would ask the teller to reapply principal to the unpaid balance. Each & overtime ic came to Bank to make payment. On several occasions I would have to wait for 10/15 minutes whiles the teller called that appropriate office for this request. Teller would write a receipt and I would been my way.
Tellers were also informed that I had 2 accounts as well, so there was no confusion. I had multiple withdrawal slips at the XXXX XXXX, MI Branch for withdrawal slips, staff could go into account and always keep the account current. XXXX XXXX was the manager at the XXXX XXXX  Branch at the time. Afterwards there was a lady name XXXX at the XXXX XXXX Branch. I now work with XXXX at the XXXX XXXX. Branch for a little more than a year, and have had no serious problems that could not be handled within the Branch. 4 Lates on one account and on late on the other has seriously crippled my scores. They should be running in the low XXXX XXXX and these 5 later showing for {$50.00} payments is something that is not my fault. The fault lies with the tellers not knowing what they are doing and telling the customer, that they could not complete the request at this time. I explain to XXXX what I need, and if it ca n't be done at the moment that I am there. He will inform me as to when the task will be completed. Also whether I need to come back into the Bank to sign a slip. The results I am looking for are that all later are removed from both accounts. I have had 5 years of perfect pay history with the other 3 Fiancial Institution I have dealt with on Installment loans for {$170000.00} and have paid them all off as this year.
These are the last 2 that I have and will retire the XXXX debt on each account the beginning of next year. Please investigate and let me know the results at your earliest convience. Thanks, XXXX XXXX

Dear, A hospital, debt collector and credit agencies ruin my credit record/financial record. I had a deductible health insurance in XXXX. We have XXXX kids and their primary doctors were from XXXX hospital. We never had issues in 9 years with them, all bill were paid and no obligatory record yet. In XX/XX/XXXX, we had couple emergency visits in XXXX XXXX Hospital and a few doctors follow up in XXXX. I had a total of {$2600.00} deductible/year. Out of that I paid {$1300.00} for my portion and {$1300.00} left in total for family. My son was recommended some therapies in XXXX hospital. The XXXX XXXX hospital used wrong medical code for billing and sent me tons of bills. I had contacted XXXX in their billing department several times and other later on. None of their people helped me. Then I reached to my insurance facilitator XXXX XXXX and that was finally resolved. Later on the primary health care unit of XXXX acquired by XXXX XXXX hospital. Then our nightmare starts. Newer management start to send several bills without processing through insurance company. I called several times but never worked to my case. I made some payments worrying about bad. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX, I got mails and calls from another fraudulent debt collector XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CT to collect a {$750.00} & {$120.00} bills. I told them, the insurance records shows that amounts were paid out and asked them to find the reality and send me the final bill if I still owe. They did not do that. At the same time, I reached XXXX XXXX, a broker agency to XXXX who have similar unprofessional dummies. They changed words and fake report several times. All these agencies put me in trouble and I did not know what was going on. At the begin of XX/XX/XXXX, the  debt collector reported my debt to credit bureaus. Then, I called debt collector, hospital and sterling benefits why they did that. The XXXX XXXX told me they paid bill in my daughter instead of my sons account. I already cleared my daughter bills but, the XXXX hospital, CT took money from me and insurance. The XXXX  XXXX Hospital overpaid {$340.00} for XX/XX/XXXX and still tried to collect from me. I paid out the due in my son 's account per their final work. The hospital assured me to send the overpaid money back and correct the credit report. Both things never happen yet. I filed complain in Better Business Bureau, The Experian & XXXX both show the records deleted from record however, my credit score is veered off and collection record is still there. I never got the money from the XXXX hospital that I overpaid, the XXXX hospital still trying to still me and the hospital along with XXXX XXXX XXXX ( debt collector ) destroys my credit record. It is a big fraud. I am a hardworking of XXXX little children and this fraud destroys family.
