Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information that should be on the report is missing
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

I owed a balance of XXXX to Capital One Bank. I paid the account off XX/XX/XXXX. Received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating the account was closed. I called Capital One on XX/XX/XXXX to ensure they reported this updated information to XXXX XXXX XXXX, the customer service rep with capital one stated they did, but I could reach out to XXXX XXXX XXXX  to ensure it was done. Well, it hasn't been reported correctly at all. Companies stated still shows that I owe XXXX, but the account was closed. I filed a dispute with the XXXX regarding this matter. In my letter from Capital One they didn't state I paid the account off, only that the account was closed. Which I thought was odd.

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (CA)

On the day of XX/XX/2019, I was wrongfully accused of depositing two counterfeit checks to my account by Bank of America, I completed all necessary steps in proving that my checks were not counterfeit just to have my fresh new account closed for basically no reason at all. When I made the first call to Bank of America, on a recorded line, the representative had told me my account was on the verge of being closed because I uploaded the same check twice. I then explained to the representative that it was an accident and all I was meaning to do was upload better images because the first images were very poor looking. The representative, acts as if its not a big problem and supposedly connects me with the department to clear the situation up but no one ever answers after being on hold for 30 minutes or more. After a while another representative picks up the line from the same department and I briefly explain my situation to the female representative. The representative then notify me that the department who can help me is now closed and to call in the morning starting at XXXX. When I call the next morning, once again I explain my mistake, a new male representative tells me that my account is in closure status because of a counterfeit check and to go inside the bank to present proof that check is not counterfeit. I follow those steps and go to the nearest branch. I bring in the check and give the manager the number to the agency who sent the check, she claims that she cant reach anyone so I call with my personal cell phone. The manager speaks with the agency and informs me to the agency whom issued the check to fax over a letterhead and receipt in which the agency did. I call to check the status of the claim and I was directed to go to another branch so a financial advisor could speak to a representative of accounts closures. Still even with the financial advisor speaking and showing proof that all of this was a misunderstanding, my account was wrongfully closed.
