Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Late or other fees
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (TX)

My husband and I opened XXXX checking accounts on XX/XX/XXXX. The accounts were our " house '' account XXXX and " groceries '' account XXXX. When we opened the accounts, we were required to hold an aggregate average daily balance of XXXX or we would be assessed a {$25.00} fee each month. The fee is only assessed once regardless of the number of accounts. We added XXXX more checking accounts " billpay '' XXXX and " savings '' XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX that were also linked so that their balance was included in the aggregate daily balance. We were assessed no fees through XX/XX/XXXX because our aggregate balance was above {$10000.00}. I added a fifth checking account " XXXX  '' XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. However, when the bank added the fifth checking account, the customer service agent changed which accounts were linked. There are XXXX boxes the customer service agent has to check to link and include the accounts in the aggregate balance calculation. The agent setting up my fifth account did not check them both which caused the billpay, savings, and XXXX account to all have their own individual {$10000.00} requirement ( {$1500.00} in the case of the nana account ). As a result of this customer service error, the bank assessed fines on those XXXX accounts intermittently from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX ( when we realized the error ) totaling {$1200.00}. I discussed this error with a customer service representative and my understanding is that if the accounts had been correctly linked per the original agreement, we would never have been assessed a fee on these accounts. We should have only been assessed {$120.00} in fees ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ) on the house account XXXX account. The bank has refunded {$75.00} in fees.

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (OH)

Attempted to use card at XXXX XXXX XXXX  card was expired realized I had never received a new one. Called number on back of card and logged in online only to discover that the line of credit had been closed. Noticed an adverse reflection on my credit score for this long-term card being closed. Contacted customer service confirmed that when card term was near its end bank unilaterally decided to close line of credit due to inactivity. Explained to rep there are very few places that except this card and the card was only used for high balance medical expenses due to its very narrow scope of acceptable vendors. Representative apologized but explained it was closed but I could re-apply for a new line of credit. Transferred to a supervisor who said it was not unusual for no notification to be given for account closure and apologized previous rep made it seem as though onus of calling to hey a new card near card expiration was on client rather than done as a matter of normal course. Explained again it was in terms and conditions that bank could close an account at their discretion with no notice to client but sympathized when I explained if I was given noticed I would have gone to one of the two places I know to make a charge on the card. Asked supervisor to file a complaint on my behalf he kept saying he would take the feedback and include my point of some notification in it.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (OR)

Most of problem like many others is with Experian, XXXX. Yes have racked up credit debt. XXXX went after me using their credit. They gave a {$10000.00} limit when first signed up. So started using it. 
Also it's Experian a big problem reporting amount I had used. Who's to say we have monies saved up. Experian and XXXX crossed the line.They have so many documents you would have to be a lawyer to keep up. We already paid down {$1000.00} to XXXX as well as {$100.00} recent payment. They dropped my usage down to {$2900.00} from {$10000.00} I'm citing XXXX with bad policies holding credit against its customers Also Experian for dropping my scores no doubt to get into their high credit interest cards. 
Companies like these should be closed. I'm pretty sure Experian must get a cut behind closed doors. Never use info against consumers. Especially paying on time. I think they try to lower scores for their own benefits. I didn't misunderstand a thing if they should try the consumers XXXX ploy.
