Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint:
After 10 months of having my accounts with bank of america, they have decided to close all of my accounts and not give me any reason at all for the closures, nor are they willing to let me speak to anyone regarding the reason for my closure. My personal accounts are all with a positive balance and are in good standing at the time that the bank has made a decision to close my accounts. I feel like I am being discriminated against because I am of XXXX decent and the fact that nobody will tell me why this is happening in the first place is completely unfair to me. I have done everything I can to keep my accounts with a positive balance and in good standing and all of a sudden today, I go to make a cash deposit to my account to find out that my cards were all blocked. 

The only thing I can think of would be because I have made several claims on my accounts over the last 10 months for people double charging my account or taking money out without my authorization, but yet it seems like I am to blame for their actions. In fact I have won all of my claims that the bank has reviewed because i was correct with filing those claims at the time they were done. The last claim that was filed under my business account was an ach claim for XXXX prematurely taking out monthly service charges from my account without my authorization because my application with them was never completed. A third party had pushed the application through to them without my final approval and so I started to get billed by them without even knowing it. How is that my fault? It is not, which is why I had filed that claim in the first place. Also XXXX agreed to refund my money for these transactions and they never did, so I filed a claim. Does this warrant a closure of all of my accounts with BofA I think not? Does this mean that I am a risky client because of other people 's actions on my account? I think not as well. So, why would you just decide, out of the blue and when all of my accounts are in good standing with normal day to day transactions, for you to just decide to close all of my accounts? Also, I am 3000 miles away visiting family in Virginia and now I can not have any access to any of my money due to this closure. I have been placed in a very bad situation now because of this and I am clear across the United States with no access to any of my money because of this decision to close my accounts with you. And the simple fact that you can't even give me the courtesy of telling why is yet another issue here. Therefore, I am led to believe that you are discriminating against me due to this premature decision to close and lock my accounts up when I have been doing nothing wrong with my accounts for you to come to this decision in the first place.

Issue: Closing an account — Can't close your account
Company: PEOPLE'S UNITED BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

Complaint:
People 's United Bank makes it onerous to near impossible to close their accounts. I have had a small balance in my account for a number of years, and their first request is to ask you to visit a physical branch since you can not close the account online or by telephone. Then they make it onerous, severe and unusual in trying to link external bank accounts ( I have had 2 external bank account efforts cancelled despite verifying the 4 direct deposits ).

Consequently, it has taken multiple phone calls, messages, and time to go nowhere - and they now require me to send bank statements from my other banks I want to link in order to get approval ( and then re-verify the external micro deposits ). To say the least, they are so happy to open accounts for people but make it impossible to close accounts with them because their systems are outdated and require paperwork. Few modern banks require so much paperwork and verifications.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY

Complaint:
We received a letter from Wells Fargo stating that they will be closing our business checking account that has been open and active since XX/XX/2002. The account funded an initial investment to a reputable developer as a partner and is currently receiving distributions from the net rental proceeds on a monthly basis. We do not deposit any large amounts of cash to this account. We have never written any bad checks from this account or any of our accounts. The Wells Fargo letter states that the pending closure is a " business decision ''. There is no risk associated with this account and any claim that this account is a risk would be a false assessment. We feel that Wells Fargo is simply claiming a " risk '' out of thin air and closing accounts to simply satisfy and counter their recent shady activity of opening unauthorized accounts.

Company: GREAT LAKES

Complaint:
About XX/XX/XXXX I began working toward filing a request for an IDR plan with Great Lakes Borrower service. They had contacted me regarding an upcoming payment to be made in the amount of {$1000.00}. This is far more than I can afford right now so I went onto their website to attempt to file for an IDR. I was told I qualified for an income driven repayment plan and was directed to studentloans.gov where I began to process my request. Part of the way through that application it sent me to irs.gov where I encountered my first problem. There was some problem with the irs.gov form submitting my information. As it was only a few weeks until my due date, I did not wish to rely on paper mail. So I called Great Lakes, figuring I must not be the first person with the problem. The person on the phone did not even let me finish explaining my problem before telling me just to download the app. She said that if I submitted my request on the app I could use images of my paychecks as proof of income and not have to worry about issues with the irs website. Wonderful. So I downloaded the app and submitted the requested documents, proof of payments over the last 90 days. The service told me that my documents had been accepted and that if they needed additional information to finalize my IDR plan request they would contact me. Today, the day BEFORE my payment was due, I logged in online just to ensure that everything was properly set up, only to discover that Great Lakes had never finalized my IDR, or perhaps they did, their website is so misleading I'm not sure, and they are already processing a payment for {$1000.00}. I was told that my lDR payment would be about {$120.00}. I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX, there is no way I can afford to pay over a thousand dollars a month for anything, let alone a loan which will qualify for forgiveness after 10 years of payments. I tried to contact Great Lakes, somehow they are able to process my payment on a non business day but are unable to answer the phone. I feel as though they have on their website, on their app, and through personal communication attempted to mislead me about what I needed to do to re-new my IDR. I have submitted a complaint with them as well, requesting a refund on the incorrect and early payment or that this payment be applied toward future payments. They are a horrible service, and if it is possible for me to finance my loans through someone else, I would like to do that.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with fees charged
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

Complaint:
In reference to account # XXXX, Citizens One Auto Finance is utilizing illegal late fee policies. 
My payment is due on the 3rd of the month with a 10 day grace period. 
I have always paid my car note before the XX/XX/XXXX of every month. 
The first time they accessed the late fee, I asked them to remove it because I paid on the XX/XX/XXXX. 
The rep stated that I paid on a Saturday, and they don't count the weekend as a payment date. 
I asked the rep, where does it state that on their website. 
She couldn't advise me because it's not stated on their website. 
If their policy states that weekend payments only count for the next business day, PLEASE PUT THAT ON YOUR WEBSITE. 
After I complained, they removed the late fee. 
This second late fee that they won't remove occurred after I paid my bill on the XX/XX/XXXX of the month in XX/XX/2018. 
They did not debit the money out of my account until 5 days later. 
I don't care when they took the money out of my account, I paid the bill on the XX/XX/XXXX. 
Instead of them reviewing my account to see if a payment is pending, they immediately access a late fee. 
These are unethical practices that they're using to access late fees on their customers ' account. 
If my account is reviewed, there will be NO payments made after the XX/XX/XXXX, so I've never been late. 
I mailed them a letter two weeks ago asking for them to remove the late fee. They refuse to remove it despite me paying my bill on the XX/XX/XXXX.

I feel like I'm taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes.

I demand these accounts should be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax Data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.
