Consumer complaint received 2017-09-06
Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (CA)

There are unauthorized charges to my debit card in excess of {$300.00} posted on XXXX/XXXX/2017. I went through all the proper channels to resolve this dispute as it is Bank of America 's statement that a customer is never responsible for unauthorized charges made to their bank card. My claim was denied THREE times. They sped through a myriad of reasons on why they denied my claim that are all based on speculative " evidence. '' I felt like I was being treated like a criminal when I 'm the victim of fraud. One reason for denial was that the signature was similar to the one signed on the fraudulent purchase. The only problem is that on the back of all their cards, it clearly states that the card is not valid or authorized until signed. As a result, ANYBODY can glance at the back and forge a signature so that evidence just throws itself out the window. Another reason for denial was that I did n't report it in a speedy manner. This one makes me cringe. As per Bank of America 's directions, they advise to wait till the bogus transaction posts, contact the company FIRST AND THEN contact the bank if there is no resolution ; I did just that in a timely fashion. So again, this denial reason is ludicrous. This joke of an investigation is criminal and so are the practices of this bank. They have denied my claims before and are rarely, if ever, on my side. But this time, I 've had enough being stepped on and bullied. The so-called investigators have Bank of America 's interest in mind and are n't concerned to whether or not there is actual PROOF, their job is to deny claims and save and generate money for the bank in a bureaucratic fashion. This is a conflict of interest. The letter that this bank has send me with their " proof '' is all speculative. And speculation never trumps real evidence. I BEGGED for video or photo evidence and was told they do n't do that. We are talking about a stadium that holds over 55,000 people and there is n't one camera around? So anybody can abuse my card, forge my signature and I have to pay for it? If I ca n't trust my bank to back me up, then who will? This is truly disturbing. I need help to rectify this situation please. No one can or wants to help me!

Company: Jon Barry and Associates, Inc. (NC)

I was contacted by Paragon Revenue Group in XXXX NC saying that I had three accounts that I owed them money for in XXXX of 2022. These were reported as medical debts on my credit report. I immediately sent them a letter via certified mail requesting them to validate/verify the debt and that they had the right to collect. On XX/XX/2022 they sent me a packet of documents in the mail, which I have attached to this complaint. In this packet were pages upon pages of personal and private detailed medical information about myself. They did not include a signed HIPAA release. They did not include any kind of original signed contract and they did not provide a contract showing they have a relationship with the original creditor to collect on this so called debt I owed. I did not realize that they had not provided the proper verification needed until I spoke to a lawyer this week who pointed it out to me. They refuse to remove the 3 collections from the credit bureaus upon requesting this. The phone representative was also threatening toward me and tried to strong arm me into making immediate payment without proving they have any kind of right to collect, what the amount is, who they are collecting for, etc.

I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed an account that was not reporting accurately. There is a late payment reporting on XX/XX/year> which I know for a fact was paid on time. The consumer reporting agency needs to report all information with complete accuracy. I'm now requesting that the late payment reported on XX/XX/year> be updated to paid on time immediately. I recently contacted my creditor to discuss the late payments listed on my account, and they confirmed that I have no late payments. As a responsible consumer, I always ensure that my accounts are paid on time, and this particular account had been marked as such when it was settled. Therefore, I am confused as to how a payment that was previously recorded as " on time '' can now be reclassified as " late. '' Despite this confirmation, the bureau has refused to delete and remove these inaccuracies, leaving me feeling taken advantage of and powerless.Thank you for your understanding and prompt action.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (IL)

My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment to be updated. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

I originally sent in letters on XX/XX/XXXX that show that the " charged off account '' from XXXX was inaccurate on my Consumer report. XXXX has reported this account balance as a loss to the IRS. But they are still receiving payments toward the account balance. Pursuant to US CODE 1681 S2 ( a ), a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. If this account is charged off, then XXXX should not be receiving payments on this account as it was already written off as a loss according to the IRS. Therefore this account is being reported INACCURATELY AND NEEDS TO BE DELETED IMMEDIATELY. I've attached the receipt of my most recent payment to show as well. Furthermore, pursuant to 15 US Code 1681 S-2 ( A ) ( B ) -Reporting information after notice and confirmation of errors - A person shall not furnish information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if ( i ) the person has been notified by the consumer, that specific information is inaccurate.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

I am very concerned that it seems as Experian has not followed the provisions of the Federal FCRA which specifies that a reasonable investigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate/unverifiable or delete the item. It states that if information disputed by the consumer is found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or can not be verified that the consumer reporting agency shall promptly delete the information from the file. In this case no verification of these listings was provided. I initiated a dispute with Experian for a listings for XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX and XXXX XXXX, that should not be on my credit report. The investigation was completed by Experian noting that the outcome of the dispute was Updated. However, there was nothing updated and the listings are still showing with the same information prior to the dispute. I contacted Experian over the phone because the listing looked the exact same prior to the dispute and should be removed. On a recorded line the representative verified that he saw the exact same thing I did that there were no changes. The credit bureau is not following procedures on making sure creditors are substantiating listings to reports. It 's almost as if they work for the creditors. I also have been having an issue with this company removing an inaccurate address that should not be on my file. I have requested numerous times and they tell me that they ca n't remove it when they can.
