Company: WESTERN ALLIANCE BANCORPORATION (MN)

On XX/XX/ I received a letter from Western Alliance Bank that they are taking over the servicing of my loan and I must contact them by XX/XX/ to stay enrolled in the ACH monthly payment that we set at the previous mortgage servicer. I was traveling outside of the US at the time. Upon my return to the US, I had received letters that I was late on the loan payments, which I was unaware were transferred to another servicer. I immediately called Western Alliance Bank and the customer service rep assisted me in making a payment and informed me she reinstating my ACH. Two months later I received more letters that my payments are not being received and there is no ACH set up, that the previous service rep processed a one time payment the ACH could not be completed as the one time payments had not been processed and the ACH was not allowed. I now have a 30 day late payment on my credit report. I received nothing from Western that the ACH was not in place, but I was told by the service rep over the phone that it was now actively in place. Again in XXXX I set up the ACH over the phone with the servicer and was told it was set up. Shockingly this happened again a 3rd time on XXXX XXXX that they had not received the previous moth mortgage payment. I now have been charge several XXXX dollars in late fees and have derogatory posting on my credit report from Western Alliance bank. Through the past few moths, I have called several times but my calls get disconnected or stuck in their automated phone system. When I do get through, they assure me they have corrected the matter. It is not corrected to my satisfaction. Their customer experience is terrible and their website interface is not effective in managing accounts.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

pened a XXXX secured credit card account. I was approved and funded the card through an ACH transfer from my bank to XXXX. A card is mailed to me and I am able to activate and use the card. A week/10 days in, I am asked to submit a verification document. 10 days after that, I received an email saying that my account has been closed. I called XXXX to get information regarding the closure. They could provide none other than " business decision. '' I asked about recourse, next steps and why there was no adverse action notice. They had no answers other than " our current policy is not updated '' so we can not provide any information regarding the business decision. Any remaining credit balance will be mailed to me in 4 months. Why was I approved for a card and then denied with no explanation or recourse? In addition, why are they holding on to my money and collecting interest on it based upon their unilateral decision? The phone agent did indicate that I could reapply for a card. It I can reapply for a card though I suspect it would be rejected and further harm my XXXX score. 

In my XXXX complaints, XXXX reviewed my complaint and cited no new information and provided no answers : They provided no adverse action notice and no justification for their decision. They must inform me of where they got their information and how it can be corrected. I received neither of those. When pressed in the XXXX  complaint, XXXX offered no information and subsequently the XXXX complaint was closed without resolution. 

They are violating FCRA as their denial of credit impacts my credit score. I have a right to know why my credit account was closed and how I can correct any errors that led to that bad decision. They do not get to have my money for several weeks while they review and ultimately cancel my credit account. 

As this closure negatively impacted my credit score and any subsequent attempt to reopen an account would further impact my account, they have a responsibility to disclose.
