Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to seek your assistance with a matter that has been causing me considerable concern. For the past month, Bank of America has blocked access to my account without any justification, despite my repeated efforts to resolve the issue. I am at a loss as to the reason for this action, but I suspect it may be related to a form I completed with XXXX, which granted them access to my account information due to the securities I purchased with them. When I became aware of the potential risks involved, I attempted to cancel the access granted to XXXX, but was unable to do so after Bank of America revoked my account access without explanation. 
This has caused significant inconvenience and financial hardship for me, as I'm out of the country on a business trip, and will not return until XXXX. I am hopeful that you may be able to intervene in this matter to help me regain access to my account. 
I am deeply grateful for the assistance that your establishment has provided me with in the past, without which my business would have failed. I am hopeful that with your help, this matter can be resolved swiftly and effectively. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Company: EdFinancial Services
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
EdFinancial has incorrectly modified XXXX XXXX XXXX, a {$0.00} balance loan that was paid off during consolidation, to now reflect a {$73000.00} balance. This is grossly inaccurate. XXXX XXXX XXXX was {$10000.00} prior to consolidation. Due to their error, I now show " new debt '' of {$73000.00} on my record. I spoke to them immediately upon discovering their error on XX/XX/year> ; however, they blamed XXXX for the error. I spoke to XXXX on XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, who confirmed the error was made by EdFinancial. I spoke to EdFinancial again on XX/XX/year> to inform them that they are responsible for the error, the mishandling of the consolidation process, and my student loan records are inaccurate. I again explained that the amount of {$73000.00} was to be ADDED to an existing consolidation loan XXXX. This debt must reflect as " existing debt '' not " new debt ''. I also explained that any incorrect changes to my credit report at this time will cause substantial financial damages and harm to me, and would be a violation of FCRA. I requested they correct the information effective immediately. They told me they would " review '' and I should see changes in several days. This type of slow approach is not acceptable.
