At that point I asked if my social security number was mandatory to obtain in order to proceed with the account, they stated that it was a type of U.S. Law that required me to provide that with any account. After I was verbally told that specific information, I pulled up this website that states that a social security number was not a requirement so they proceeded with asking more personal information, thereafter I was told to leave the branch due to not qualifying under their policy. This situation was embarrassing and made me feel discriminated against. No disclosure or acknowledgement where in the advertisement stating what they mentioned to me in the branch.

When a citizen has negative accounts and is a victim of identity theft and has a report, these accounts must be eliminated from the credit bureau in the next 5 days. On the other hand I can not make disputes via online because they have blocked access. what kind of credit bureau is this that does not work. I 'm already going for more than 2 years with this problem. Dispute staff and fraud department staff are poorly educated and do not help you find a solution.

She lets me know that she will inform department about my dilemma, do some additional research, and get back to me.

Consumer complaint received 03/17/2017 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with FIRST TENNESSEE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (AR).
Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint: My bank is withholding funds equal to an amount of altered check. I notified the bank of the altered amount on the day it cleared my account ( XX/XX/2017 ) in accordance with U.C.C. Article 4-406. The bank has told me that the funds are not available to me due to Breach of Warranty but can not tell me what warranty I have breached. The bank will also not give me a date on when the funds will be available to me, and will not even guarantee that I will get the funds back at all. The bank should not have honored the check for more than the legal ( long-hand ) amount and because it was not endorsed by the payee. I believe the bank is in violation of U.C.C. Article 4. I do not see anywhere in Article 4 ( or ECCHO rule 9 ) that gives the bank the authority to withhold, and certainly not, to refuse indefinitely access to my funds since I provided timely notification and the check should not have been honored in the first place. It is unfair that the bank has use of my funds to compensate them for their error.

Consumer complaint received 06/18/2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF PENNSYLVANIA (PA).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: A bank I held a checking account with was purchased by First National Bank. My checking account and funds were moved to a new bank without my permission. When I attempted to close this account multiple times over the phone I was told I could not due to various issues. First I was told the account was in transition and would have to call back in a few days. Then was told I could n't close it over the phone and had to go to a bank branch. During this time of me actively trying to close the account a recurring payment I had set up with my actual bank hit the purchased account and I was charged {$200.00} in overdraft fees. When I attempted to have these waived due to circumstances above I was told I had authorized the payments ( which I had not ) and failure to pay immediately would cost an additional {$12.00} a day. This was the most unbelievable experience I 've had as I was being hijacked and extorted.

Consumer complaint received 06/20/2016 about Credit card () with TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (NY).
Issue: Identity theft / Fraud / Embezzlement

Complaint: Hello, This complaint is on TD Bank. Recently I noticed a charge on my credit card that I never authorized. The charge was for {$4900.00} from a company called In Compliance Services on the date of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I always pay my balance and usually review our books. Upon a closer look we noticed this charge and we have never given out our credit card number to a company like this. The first thing we did was try to find out why the charge was made, so we did some research on the company to find out who they were. We called the number we got off the internet and asked who they were and if they could give us some info on why they billed us. They told us that they did compliance services and they have no records of charging our card, but they could n't give our money back. The only thing I wanted to know was why I was charged and they gave me a very vague ambiguous answer. I was upset because not only did they take my money, they would n't tell me why. The next thing I did was call my credit card company. TD Bank. This first phone call was made on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. TD Bank started a fraud investigation, and said that they would do the research and find out what was going on, and also that they would credit me back the money that was taken if they find out the charge was not good. They said the investigation would take XXXX10 business days. So I called them back on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and at that point they asked me to send a affidavit claiming fraud. So I sent them a letter stating that I had no business with this company. I finally heard back from them about a month later and they said that since the charge happened 2 years ago that I was responsible. I asked them about their XXXX $ fraud liability, and they said that it did n't apply here. They made it seem like they did n't even do an investigation on this company. They had me send them an affidavit and they did n't even lift one finger to try to figure out why these people charged me! I did my own research and I found out that the fair credit and billing act said that I was protected from fraudulent charges and that if I was billed that the merchant should have to provide documents saying what they charged me for, an invoice, something. Anything! So I wrote TD Bank another letter that included these federal laws that I looked into. Again I was denied. I also asked them to resend the information for the denials so that I could attach it to this complaint. They said they would, but they never sent anything. So I feel like I was victimized by someone who got my credit card information and that the bank unfairly denied my claim without even looking into it. I was just given the run around, and I was n't protected by my bank against this fraud. My husband has served in the XXXX and I just feel like we were left out to dry by TD Bank.

Consumer complaint received 02-06-2017 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE (GA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I 'd like to request assistance with a problem I 'm having with XXXX, an employee in the XXXX at NationStar Mortgage. A few weeks ago, I contacted my first lienholder, NationStar Mortgage, asking for a loan modification. I specifically asked for a reduction in the interest rate from XXXX % to XXXX %. I also told them I had excellent credit and that my payments are current, as they already knew. They started the loan modification process by asking for an application and multiple supporting documents, all of which I provided. NationStar notified me I had to resubmit the XXXX, which I resubmitted. NationStar had pre-filled in some of the data on the form and it was incorrect, so I had to correct it and resubmit it. Then, last week XXXX XXXX who was assigned as the point of contact for my loan modification called me and said I had to submit the IRS for XXXX for a third time, but she was n't sure why or what was wrong with it. An argument began after she told me loan modifications are only for people who are behind on their payments. In other words, what she was telling me was that I do n't meet the requirements for a loan modification, but she still wanted me to resubmit the IRS XXXX in order to go thru the motions of a loan modification application despite knowing it would be denied. A day or XXXX after this exchange, I logged into the NationStar Mortgage website, but was unable to access the message center where I intended to complain about this phone conversation with XXXX. I 'd previously sent messages, but after that conversation I suddenly could n't access the messaging function. I still ca n't access it today, XX/XX/XXXX. So, today XXXX, I called NationStar Customer Service at XXXX, but the phone system automatically routed me to XXXX voicemail, multiple times. I can not speak to a NationStar customer service representative because my phone number is being automatically re-routed to XXXX voicemail. I called back blocking my number, and it still went to XXXXs voicemail. I 'm not even calling XXXX number, I 'm calling the main NationStar customer service number. NationStar is servicing my mortgage, but I ca n't talk to customer service because my number is being automatically re-routed to XXXX voicemail. She also did n't respond to an email I replied to asking why she still needed that IRS form for the third time if I do n't even qualify for a loan modification. This is mind-boggling to me.
