Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ).

Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ).

Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b. 

I demand that the following items be deleted immediately from my credit report :

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
And here we go again. This is exactly why I asked to close my escrow account with PNC ( without being charged a fee ). 

This is going to be the fourth complaint on PNC due to their failure to manage my funds properly. 

Again, the ongoing incompetency with PNC. I mailed my mortgage payment with the stub and the check noted how to apply my funds to my account. My standard mortgage payment is {$1200.00}. The check was in the amount of {$1700.00} ; {$1200.00} for my XXXX payment and the additional {$500.00} to be placed in my escrow account. When I received my statement for XXXX the Transaction Activity states PNC placed the {$500.00} payment to Principal. As it shows very clearly in my attached pictures, the payment stub and check indicate how to properly deposit my funds. Couldn't get any clearer. 

Due to PNC inept business model, I will continue to take pictures of all interactions, though I have come to the realization that PNC inability to manage a money/loan will be an ongoing matter. 

I would request PNC correct this matter and then allow me to control my money by releasing my escrow account without any of their punishment fees.
