Complaint narrative:
Experian is discriminating against me because I am XXXX and have been unable to work since 2015. I was retired from XXXX XXXX at that time, and despite providing documentation to Experian that I have over 30 years of positive credit history, they still refuse to acknowledge my current credit-worthiness and continue to label me as having 'insufficient credit history ' which is untrue and has prevented me from obtaining a XXXX XXXX credit card through XXXX and now I have been denied a checking account by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I was applying for in an attempt to obtain a secured credit card to help re-establish my good credit. Furthermore, Experian has refused my request to add a personal statement of dispute to my credit report in an attempt to explain my situation to potential creditors. This is a violation of The Fair Credit Reporting Act section 611 ( b ). I wrote to my Senator along with the US Secretary of Veteran 's Affairs and asked for their help, but Experian has refused to allow either of them to advocate for me and continues to penalyze me for my hardship. 

I can come to no other conclusion, but that Experian is refusing to acknowledge my positive credit history because I am XXXX.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I requested an online wire transfer payment through Bank of Americas Online Bill Pay service for my Company Credit Card on Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$1200.00}. The online page and their general credit card guidelines state that the payment will be applied within XXXX business days- which should be by XX/XX/XXXX ( Friday ). 

On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX in the morning the transfer was completed from by business checking account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. However, when checking the BofA Business Credit Card transactions this payment has not been posted. Upon calling BofA Customer Support they say they see the payment in Online Bill Pay but dont expect this payment to post until Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX. This is both frustrating and maddening that {$1200.00} from my business is floating in the ether and is inaccessible for my business. This is absolutely unacceptable and BofA is either incapable or uninterested in appropriately handling my business funds. As far as customer support escalations I was offered to submit my complaint via the customer feedback survey. Which has no ability to appropriately fix this lack of oversight or control of funding in a timely fashion.
