Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I discovered more than {$50000.00} in fraudulent ACH charges to a little-used account. Citibank could not provide any verifying information other than claiming that the chargers knew my name and account number. ( Such information is on every check. ) Citibank randomly credited some but not all of the charges and recommended that I open a new account. I opened a new account, and Citibank subsequently reversed the credits to my old account by debiting my new account. I have lost more than {$18000.00} due to this unauthorized fraud and Citibank refuses to return the funds.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On approximately XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, I called Bank of America to report fraudulent transactions on my minor child 's bank account that included fake checks and withdrawals from branch locations in California, we live in XXXX. I was told that the transactions would be reported as fraudulent and I placed a hold on the account in question and ordered a new debit card for my primary account. I was under the impression that I performed all of my due diligence as a consumer, and a law-abiding customer with the same bank account for over 19 years. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to log into my online banking account and was not granted access ; I called Bank of America to be informed that they without notice decided to close my primary bank account and that I wouldn't have access to my funds until the process completed, up to XXXX business days. This left me scrambling to pay bills, and feed my daughter not having any access to my funds. 

After numerous calls to corporate and a visit to my local branch, I still don't have access to my money and there is no information as when I will receive the funds. I have deposited my payroll checks into this account since XXXX and there is ZERO empathy, consideration or recourse for their hasty decision to close my account. In addition to telling me that I won't be able to access any Bank of America products in the future. 

Bank of America has notoriously been unfriendly to communities, however the holding of my cash feels predatory considering funds are insured AND this activity is to no fault of my own. I am working hard to manage my finances and pay bills on time and Bank of America is preventing me from doing so by holding my cash XXXX.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Company: Rosebud Economic Development Corporation
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I was desperate because I was facing a possible eviction and I applied for an online loan to pay the rent and they gave me a XXXX XXXX XXXX  loan, payable every two weeks debited directly from my bank, when I saw that they charged {$390.00} I called them to ask why they charged me such a high monthly bill, and they said no, that amount will be debited every two weeks, and told me that the interest is 466 % interest. 
I told him I can't pay XXXX XXXX  a month for a loan of XXXX XXXX XXXX  and he told me you already signed, but I don't remember seeing that amount in interest. 

I think it's a scam that they charge 466 % interest, they charged one installment and stopped the payments at the bank because I can't pay that amount in interest, it's crazy.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

Complaint narrative:
This is the second time ( first was several months ago ) receiving an unsolicited call claiming to be from Chase alleging someone applied for a credit card in my name. The calling party had all the information from my credit report including all accounts, account numbers, current balances, address, and DOB. 
They claimed to be investigating due to card application coming from Pennsylvania and we live in Florida. They gave me a " case number '' ( XXXX ) and then stated they were transferring me to the CFPB to file an investigative report. 

That second party sounded as if they were in the same room ( due to background noise ) and stated his name was XXXX XXXX and his phone number was XXXX. This is obviously similar to CFPB but incorrect. It is very concerning because they have extensive information available through any of the three credit reporting agencies but not likely to be compiled in such a way elsewhere. 

After the first time, we changed most credit card account numbers and passwords. 

My caller ID indicated the call originated from ( XXXX ) XXXX in XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I have monthly payments scheduled using XXXX XXXX from Wells Fargo for the XXXX of each month to XXXX XXXX. My monthly payment is due on the XXXX of each month, so extra time to reach XXXX was allowed. My XXXX and XXXX payments were not sent until the XXXX. I have reached out to Wells Fargo and they say they did not do anything wrong, and followed my payment instructions. How can sending a payment on the XXXX be following my instructions to send it on the XXXX? You will see in the attached Proof of Payment documents that the payment was scheduled for the XXXX yet the checks are dated the XXXX. I was charged {$30.00} for the late XXXX payment, and {$41.00} plus {$2.00} interest for the late XXXX payment. I also reached out to XXXX to see if they would waive these fees and they refused. I believe Wells Fargo is responsible for these payments arriving late and should reimburse me.
