Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (GA)

Bank of America closed my checking account XX/XX/XXXX which I thought was only for a negative balance. I later find out they closed my account for fraud which Ive never committed. The account balance was {$38.00} which I paid on XX/XX/XXXX. I talked to multiple representatives at Bank of America on XX/XX/XXXX and not one could pull up information about fraud being committed. I completely understand that my account may have been closed due to a negative balance, but Im being reported for something thats completely inaccurate. Fraud and insufficient funds are 2 total completely different things. After trying to resolve the issue I spoke with XXXX and XXXX XXXX  trying to get the issue taken care of. I spoke with a representative at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and told him my issue how Im being misreported as fraud. He basically told me he knows and Bank of America risk department reports EVERYBODY as fraud even if they havent committed any type of fraud and if I dispute its a waste of time because XXXX works for the banks not the people. He later told me also if I wanted it removed I would have to wait 5 years or pay {$400.00}. I then called XXXX XXXX about the situation and they told me to file a dispute which I received the documents in my email XX/XX/XXXX. This entire time Ive been misreported and its completely unfair to me because I cant get no type of Bank accts. All of them see me as fraud when Ive never done such a thing. I paid the {$38.00} that I indeed owe and I just want things to be done fairly. Yes I owed on a negative balance, no I didnt commit fraud. I called Bank of America risk department today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to see if they updated XXXX and XXXX XXXX so I could pursue getting me a new account with a better bank who doesnt just reports every account closure as fraud. The lady told me even though I paid, this account will stay reported as fraud until XX/XX/XXXX. I  then told her that Ive never committed fraud and its reporting inaccurately. She told me that I shouldve filed a claim after the account was closed. I wouldve indeed filed a claimed if the account was closed to fraud, but I was under the impression that my acct was only closed because I had a negative balance of {$38.00}. Nobody at Bank of America can tell me how I committed fraud but theyve reported me. This is completely unfair and its causing unnecessary stress in my life because Im being reported for something that I didnt do. XXXX and XXXX XXXX are working with the banks so its basically 3 against 1. Ive never committed fraud and Bank of America is violating my rights. I demand some type of physical or legal proof showing I committed fraud, if not I need this misreported information removed immediately. Its at the point now where its affecting my daily life because I cant get another bank acct anywhere. If theres no proof where I committed fraud, I need to be removed from XXXX and XXXX XXXX immediately. Like I stated earlier, having an negative account and committing fraud are 2 completely different things.
