Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (NC)

I opened a bank account with Wells Fargo about 3 weeks ago. I told them that I did XXXX for companies all over the world. I also told them I would be receiving many wires from all over the world for services I did. They told me that this would not be a problem. Well, so I recieved a wire for {$990.00} for XXXX services I did. Then I received XXXX more wires into my account for other services/website design I did. Well, then I contacted them to find out when I saw there were no pending transactions to ask about withdrawing my funds the following Monday. This was the previous Friday I called them on. At that time, I was told there was a hold on my account and that I could not get my funds out then. I was told because the customer I did work for received their completed XXXX services a little late eve though I did complete services for them that the customer claimed this was an unauthorized wire. I was also told verbally and in writing in a letter that my account was slated to be closed on today, XXXX/XXXX/15 and for my funds to be sent to me in a check on this coming Monday, XXXX/XXXX/15. Well, I called Wells Fargo fraud department today to ask what the status of my account was since I could still view it on line. I was told that they had sent out for information from XXXX XXXX and was waiting on a response back that they had not recieved and because this information was not received, that they were pushing the account hold back to XX/XX/XXXX. They did not say they were closing the account down then and sending me my funds which total a little more than $ 13,000+. They only told me that they would post notes at that time and that I could contact them on XX/XX/XXXX to see what the status was at that time. 

I have talked to all levels of management all the way up to and including the regional manager who all did what they could but got no favorable resolution. In fact a committee that this matter was escalated to in order to see if they would release my funds early said no. They also told me they would release my funds on XX/XX/XXXX and send them out to me in check form on Monday, XXXX/XXXX/15. They have not done this at all and now say my hold on my account is delays again until XX/XX/XXXX in spite of the fact that I have a hard copy letter stating that i would be sent my money on Monday, XXXX/XXXX/15 which I was told b Wells Fargo fraud department will not happen

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (CA)

In XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a billing dispute with Barclay Card for a {$99.00} charge to my credit card on XX/XX/XXXX by a merchant called XXXX. I informed Barclay Card that I had tried to resolve the issue with the merchant but the merchant was unresponsive. I provided Barclay Card with documentation in the form of a XX/XX/XXXX XXXX e-mail stating that if I signed up for XXXX on that day, the second month would be free to me and XXXX would not charge me a monthly membership fee until XX/XX/XXXX. I also provided Barclay Card with an e-mail confirmation proving that I did in fact sign up with Class Pass on XX/XX/XXXX. Subsequently, I received a XX/XX/XXXX letter from Barclay Card which stated that Barclay Card 's investigation could take up to 45 days. I waited well over 45 days and when I did not hear back, I called Barclay Card around XXXX/XXXX/2015 and was told that Barclay Card had closed my case without resolving it and without informing me. Misleadingly, my Barclay Card billing statements still included an untruthful note that they were still investigating my billing dispute. Then, I faxed Barclay Card again and asked that my billing dispute be re-opened. Unfortunately, Barclay Card responded by sending a letter to me on XX/XX/XXXX stating that " Due to the length of time that has passed since this charge posted to your account, we are unable to take further action on this disputed charge. '' I timely filed my dispute yet Barclay Card is now saying that they can not do anything about the disputed charge because it is too late.

Company: Allied Collection Services, Inc. (Nevada) (MN)

I was in an ongoing dispute with XXXX over their criminal tactics. I was waiting for a final amount to resolve the outstanding amount I owe them. I never received verification that they agreed to the amount I was proposing, I had asked them, etc., and no communication. I was doing some other banking business the other day and was shown on my credit report that Allied Collection Services , Inc had " hit '' my credit report with the amount I owe XXXX. This certainly was a surprise, I did n't get a voicemail, e-mail or so much as a letter in the mail notifying me of their attempt to collect the debt, nor did I get an opportunity to dispute the debt. Since I found out they are illegally ruining my credit I have called and emailed them in an attempt to resolve the problem and nobody will contact me back. This is and should be criminal.

In 2009, XXXX XXXX we unfortunately lost our home of XXXX years to a fire. Within a day XXXX we contacted our mortgage company to inform them of what happened. The representative informed us we would be placed in forbearance. They gave us the run around and we turned to an attorney within a couple months due to going in circles with these people. Over the next XXXX years we fought for payment of the house and personal items. Our attorney asked us for the forbearance letter. We had no idea what she was talking about. The mortgage company, Bank of America, was attempting to take the balance of our insurance money to the tune of approximately {$43000.00}. Our attorney said we should stop the bleeding due to the mortgage company adding up daily charges. The mortgage company said that we have n't made the payments. How in the world in just XXXX months can we owe an additional XXXX $? Would n't they be held accountable for not sending the required paperwork in this situation? I would like to see my $ XXXX plus interest given back to us.

I received a phone call from a debt collector claiming to be from a law office on an old credit card account that was from XX/XX/XXXX. The man that I spoke to was named XXXX at XXXX he attempted to call me several times while I was driving but the call kept dropping. When I was finally in an area that I could return a call to him, I did, and the following conversation transpired that left me feeling UN-eased and uncomfortable. He asked me if I was going to take care of the debt, and I replied no because there was a savings account attached to that credit card that would be used in the instance that I defaulted on the credit card. He told me no there was n't and I replied yes it was from XX/XX/XXXX, then, he told me that the account was opened by me XX/XX/XXXX. I then told him that I did n't go by the name he was stating over the phone since XX/XX/XXXX when one year later I went into the XXXX and the military legally changed my name to my maternal mother 's last name. So I told him good luck proving that I existed by that name XX/XX/XXXX, because I 've been going by my maternal mother last name since XX/XX/XXXX ; at which time he responds to me by saying I knew you were a transgender and bye. So what recourse do I have to pursue any matter in this situation with this certain individual that totally got it wrong and made a derogatory offensive remark to me?

In trying to negotiate a payment plan on debt on a Wells Fargo credit card- and though I 'm still willing to pay the full amount of the debt, the representative consistently said that they could not advise how this would affect my credit.

I feel I have the right to know before I agree to terms. And they said I could contact the Credit Bureau 's to ask them. But I know the reporting comes from the lending entity NOT the credit bureau.
