On XX/XX/23, I checked my account to see the balance. At that time, I had a positive account balance. On XX/XX/23, I received an email notification of an overdraft. When I logged in to my account, a fee has already been charged. I contacted Fifth Third to ask that the fee be waived as I would have brought the account positive prior to a fee if I had been aware. They maintained that a notification was present in their system on XX/XX/23. I explained I had not received this and my first notification occured after the fee had been charged. They declined to waive the fee based on this internal notification that I was not sent.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681 section 602a, which mandates fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumer privacy by consumer reporting agencies such as TransUnion, I assert my right to safeguard my private information as supported by 15 USC 6801. Furnishers of information to credit agencies, being financial institutions, must respect customer privacy and security according to the same title. However, they have not obtained my written consent, as required by 15 USC 1681 section 604a ( 2 ), to furnish this information. Additionally, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) obliges financial institutions to inform consumers of their nondisclosure options, which was never done in my case. Moreover, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from reporting adverse information without consent, which TransUnion is violating. Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681e dictate accurate information reporting and reasonable procedures maintenance, which TransUnion are not complying with. Finally, 12 CFR 1016.7 grants me the right to opt out at any time, which I am exercising.

Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Chrysalis Holdings LLC (VA)

I would like to bring to your attention the unethical Veteran 's Administration ( VA ) mortgage loan procedures of NEWDAYUSA mortgage company. I have had VA mortgages in the past and I am looking to refinance my current mortgage which has {$57000.00} remaining principal at a rate of 3.75 %. I answered a mailing from NewDayUSA which said NO appraisal was needed. One of the first things the agent said was " There will be a {$500.00} to {$600.00} appraisal fee, but we will pay it and add it to the closing costs. '' I was offered a 30 year {$150000.00} loan at 3.5 % to pay off the current 15 year mortgage, and {$15000.00} in other debt ; plus cash for remodeling. The agent than listed the fees and closing costs : a {$7700.00} fee that the VA supposedly charges! ; {$4000.00} escrow ; {$2900.00} title and other closing costs ; {$2100.00} fee that NEWDAYUSA charges ; {$4300.00} fee that was not explained. Total {$21000.00} in closing costs. NewDayUSA 's offer was a 30 year loan with a principal balance of only {$20000.00} more than my original mortgage principal which is a 15 year loan ( {$150000.00} vs {$130000.00} ; and payments would be {$40.00} more than my current monthly payment ). 

NEWDAYUSA is scamming veterans and needs to be investigated. I am aware that mortgage companys add costs to the loan balance but these fees are totally unreasonable. Something needs to be done.
