Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (DE)

I was purchasing a puppy which was {$900.00}. I sent the money to the person I was making a purchase. within 8 hours I did not receive further communication. I called BOA and told them I thought I was scammed and fraud happened. Then they come back and say they can not get my money back from XXXX XXXX which houses the fraud account used to steal hundreds of thousands. It seems like these banks are promoting theft and fraud and they do not do anything about it as a consumer, this is not fair. You think your money in a bank is protected but I can see they are not.

Company: Solar Mosaic LLC (TN)

In XXXX of 2022 a sales associate with XXXX XXXX came to our house and sold us solar panels to be financed through Solar mosaic. We were promised a reduction of around 70 % of our power bill, we were told we would have a warranty, and we were told we would get a rebate to pay off 30 % of our loan when we did our taxes. all of this turned out to be lies. We don't even save XXXX $ a month, we don't have a warranty, and we didn't receive the rebate as we were promised. Without paying the 30 % within 18 months the amount due will increase XXXX $ per month over the lifetime of the loan ultimately doubling the amount we owe we can't afford to pay for an additional power bill, I have called and spoke with Mosaic numerous times to no avail

reviewed a copy of my credit report and I noticed that there are some fraud accounts listed on my report. I have previously reached out to the credit bureau to rectify this affair but they have been negligent in complying with my request. The disputed information is not related to any transaction made by me. 
I have previously disputed this information and received a response that the creditor verified the information. However, this verification was inadequate and violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., which governs the accuracy and completeness of consumer credit reports. The creditor and credit reporting agency did not provide me with the name of the person who verified the information or any evidence that the creditor conducted a proper verification. The creditor and credit reporting agency did not update the balance or the date of the account as required by the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 2 ). Furthermore, you failed to conduct a reasonable investigation within 30 days ( or 45 days in some cases ) of receiving my notice and report the results of the investigation to me as required by the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ).

Please investigate this matter and update my credit report accordingly using the Metro 2 format and in compliance with the consumer law from the USC, Title 15, Chapter 41, Subchapter V, which protects consumers from unfair or deceptive acts or practices in connection with credit transactions.

I have enclosed a copy of my identity theft report as proof of identity theft, a copy of my ID, Social security card.

Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (MA)

Issue : Im a former Capital One customer who thought I held a high-interest account, but was tricked just like outlined in these articles. Capital One maintains deceptive and predatory practices. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX though Capital One no longer grants me access to my former account statements to review exact dates. 

Amounts : between ~ $ XXXX of lost interest in my accounts Action taken : contacted the company several times, and was told they would not rectify the situation. 

Additional narrative : I'm writing to share my experience leaving Capital One as a longtime customer earlier this year. After investigating discrepancies in my expected vs. actual interest being paid into my 'high interest savings account ', I was informed by a customer service representative that I had in fact been 'grandfathered ' into a legacy rate ( unavailable to any consumer, and certainly not advertised on the Capital One website, which only advertised their High Interest Savings account ) of XXXX % vs. the stated 4.15 %. My account was listed as High Interest Savings, but I was clearly not being paid the market rate. When contacting Capital One, the customer service rep suggested opening a new account to access the expected market rate, but was unable to rectify the years of unpaid interest due to my incorrect account classification. Neither was the supervisor whom I escalated to as a next step, nor the Executive Escalations team after writing the CEO on XX/XX/XXXX. As such, I told them I had completely lost trust in Capital One and closed all accounts. 

I had been a legacy ING Direct customer since XXXX, and was happy to join the Capital One family. Not until years later did I realize Capital One was not paying what would have amounted to thousands of dollars in interest because of my legacy account status. Nor were they willing to make the account whole by correcting past interest. I have since shared my extremely negative impression of Capital One with family/friends since this discovery.

On XX/XX/XXXX I had received a call from the chime ( a banking app ) customer support number. I was told that my account was under technical issues and that I would need to transfer the money to a secure account. The app only allowed XXXX XXXX to be transferred to the secure account and the caller used different tactics such as giving a false badge number and using the same music as the real customer service when they would place me on hold. The day after I called on the real customer service line to get them to stop/refund the transaction. There was a dispute placed that has been opened repeatedly but it has been denied every time thus far. There have been calls made to the New Mexico treasury, a lawyer ( was given free consultation ) in order to see how I could recover the money.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Card opened as result of identity theft or fraud
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CO)

I received a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX in the mail from Wells Fargo on XX/XX/2023. I immediately called Wells Fargo to ask for an investigation into the fraud and close the account. They gave me Case # XXXX for the investigation and told me I would hear back in ten days. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter stating that their investigation found that there was no fraud, how they came to this conclusion was not stated only that they conducted a reasonable investigation. I called Wells Fargo immediately upon receipt of the letter and spoke with 4-6 different representatives, eventually finding out that the email address on the application was not mine, the phone number used for the application was not mine as well, and that they did not close the account on XX/XX/XXXX when I had called about the fraudulent card. Instead of closing the account, it was activated and was maxed out with a balance of {$5200.00}. None of the representatives could give me an explanation for the fraudulent charges or help me with the problem. The last representative said she would reopen the case ( Case # XXXX ) and that I would receive a call from her supervisor in 48 hours, but I never received a call. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter stating that the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX via electronic application with my SSN, Birth Date, Address, and Email Address. The application did not include a telephone number, even though I was given one from a representative that was used on the application and the application shows a different email address than was given to me by the representative as well. The letter from Wells Fargo said that this was for XXXX # XXXX, which is a case number I never received. The letter also states that I am financially liable for the {$5200.00} because the claim was denied. I have disputed the charges, frozen my credit, and placed fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus. A police identity theft report was made on XX/XX/XXXX. I sent a letter to Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX restating the identity theft problems and included a copy of the police identity theft report, a copy of the credit report showing the fraudulent account, and a copy of CFPBs Notice to Furnishers of Information. I am waiting for Wells Fargo to abide by the law and do what is right.
