Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (LA)

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (FL)

I waited to file this complaint for this long because I was searching for the bank agreement I was given at the time I opened the account which describes the policies and charges I am subject to. 
On XXXX XXXX XXXX my checking account was charged a overdraft fee of {$35.00} due to insufficient funds. 
I called Bank of America asking to have the fee waived, but the customer service representative told me my account did not qualify to have the fee waived. I told the representative my account was set up to decline or return all payments that will cause overdrafts, plus I was told when I opened the account that the account was exempt of overdraft fees, but the representative, apart from emanating a belittling behaviour towards me, refused to refund me the fee. 
Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I found the copy of the policies and charges the checking account is subject to. This agreement clearly states that the bank will not charge any overdraft fees to this account if the " Decline All '' setting was chosen which it was since the first day I opened the account. I made it clear to the bank representative while I was at the branch when opening the account that I did not want any overdraft protection and that I wanted to Decline ALL transactions that will cause me to be overdraft. Then, I made sure that feature was set up in my online banking settings. 
Bank of America charged me an overdraft fee regardless of all my efforts of following their rules to avoid being overdraft. 
I feel Bank of America is taken advantage of me because I am XXXX years old senior citizen who only source of income comes from XXXX which is how my account gets replenish every month. If I were a super rich customer I am sure their representative team would have had a different approach to my request.
