Company: M&T BANK CORPORATION (PA)

I am an XXXX XXXX XXXX man and on XX/XX/XXXX, a M & T bank customer service representative named XXXX XXXX asked me if I knew what a CD was, I answered " Yeah like XXXX XXXX and XXXX? '' She said no, but stated that she noticed I had a lot of money in my account. She asked if I wanted to move {$1000.00} each to two ( 2 ) CDs, but she didn't explain enough for me to understand what was going on. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received paperwork showing that {$20000.00} was moved out of my account. When I went into the bank to complain I was informed that it would cost me {$500.00} to cancel the CDs and get my money back. After more complaining they decided to waive {$250.00} on one CD. I believe this whole thing was under-handed. This entire situation was not right and I want all of my money back!

Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (AZ)

I opened an account in XX/XX/2023, because I saw an ad for a {$320.00} checking bonus promotion with over {$1000.00} of direct deposits to the account. Within the month of XXXX, I posted {$1200.00} worth of direct deposit transactions to the account as evidenced by the XXXX statement. In XXXX, I called the local branch on XXXX in XXXX, AZ to see what was up with the bonus and they assured me that the transactions did in fact qualify and to wait to see the bonus. I called again to the branch in early XXXX and was told to wait until the end of the month to see the bonus post. At the end of XXXX, on XXXX I called the corporate support team and they said I didnt qualify- then I told them when the XXXX posted as well as correcting them about there being no minimum balance requirement attached to the offer code. I was then told that I should have received it and that they would file a non payment of bonus form on my behalf and it would take XXXX business days for a response. I called on XXXX to see what happened since it had been XXXX business days, and I was told to wait another day until today to get a response. I called today, XXXX, and was told that the form had been submitted but there was probably a backlog and to wait more. This is extremely frustrating and it seems all the cards are stacked against me here. I have proof I applied the offer code, proof I met the requirements per their system status as well as a branch representative confirming I met the requirement during the qualification period, and it has now been more than the highest end of time their support quoted to get a resolution and I am still being told to wait. I just want my {$320.00} bonus that I am owed. It has taken hours of time and I have gotten nowhere. I have been told by the highest level of phone support that they have no power to resolve this and must just wait for the form they submitted to make its way through the process- no way to credit my account, no way to contact the non payment of bonus team. This is unacceptable. Furthermore, I have seen many other people in similar situations as me online post about there being duplicate bonuses on their accounts, and others getting none. Any attempt to say my XXXX isn't XXXX is invalid as their system says it is a XXXX and many others with similar deposit methods received their bonus, and they should treat all customers equally although it appears not. Their systems and processes are clearly dysfunctional in this regard. All I am asking for is the bonus I am owed you would think with XXXX XXXX track record they would be better in this regard. Apparently not.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Franklin Collection Service, Inc. (LA)

Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I placed my fourth call to Franklin Collection Services. Previously I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX to dispute this derogatory information. XXXX XXXX XXXX tells me that I have to deal directly with Franklin Collection as they have taken over my account. The account being an XXXX account in the amount of {$490.00}. On four separate occasions I have called Franklin Collection and each time the representatives that I have spoken to have been EXTREMELY rude, especially XXXX XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I was able to determine that the address they have for me on file is not mine. I have sent in a lease agreement and also a police report to confirm that the information they have is not me and is a result of identity theft ( XX/XX/XXXX ). They do not care and instead of being receptive to the information that I sent and finding common ground I am meant with hostility, sarcasm, accused of doctoring a police report, etc. I am not willing to pay for a debt that I do not owe. I have been diligently working on my credit in hopes to purchase a home. I have had credit issues in the past and have to pony up the money the money to pay collections, and get my accounts into good standing. I have no problem doing this, but only accounts that are mine where I have incurred the debt. 
When I spoke to the representative XXXX today she told me to " hold on tight because they have 60-90 business days to investigate ''. This has to be illegal. I will fight this tooth and nail.This is not my account. Franklin Collection is unwilling to discuss professionally and instead resorts to rude snarky and threatening dialogue. I mentioned to XXXX XXXX that I was trying to purchase a home and she said with collection amount like this it is unlikely I will get a house. Who are these people? I will not be bullied or talked to like this, finding out that an unauthorized account was opened in my name is hurtful enough.I will not continue to be victimized

Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the credit bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the ORIGINAL CREDITOR, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file.

The original creditor in this case would be the US Bankruptcy Courts. The bankruptcy courts mailed me a letter stating that they do NOT provide any information to the credit reporting agencies, nor do they validate and/or confirm public records.
