Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (FL)

My family and I were affected by Hurricane Ian and Nicole during the months of XXXX and XXXX in 2022. I called bank of America on XX/XX/2022 and Spoke to XXXX to explain my situation and hardships with payments due to the hurricane and he advised me that the late fees would be removed from my credit card account and no late payments would be reported to the credit bureaus. My credit report has a late payment for the month of XXXX. I tried to dispute this with Bank of America multiple times and they will not remove this from my credit reports. Even with the difficulties we endured during this natural disaster I still made payments on my account in XXXX and XXXX. I have been banking with Bank of America for almost 10 years with my oldest credit card account of 6 years and not a single late payment with them.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Opening an account — Account opened as a result of fraud
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MI)

On two separate occasions ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), there have been attempts to open checking accounts in my name with Bank of America. It is impossible to get a hold of Bank of America through their automated phone numbers because you have to have an account number with them to proceed, which as evidenced by the denied emails I don't. 

Once I finally got a hold of a person no one was able to verify if anything had gone through and honestly I don't blame the person on the phone, but the fact that this company can not based on my information confirm or deny fraudulent accounts being opened with my identity is very concerning. 

I do not think Bank of America should be allowed to let people open accounts without some form of verification.
