Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Personal line of credit
Issue: Problem with cash advance — 
Company: Tally Technologies
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
Tally is a company that promotes a service that makes minimum payments to higher-interest credit cards from companies they are in partnership with, on behalf of the user, and then the user pays Tally back on a consolidated balance with a lower interest rate. 

In XX/XX/2023 I was abruptly informed via email that they would no longer provide services of paying my credit cards. I attempted to call their office during regular business hours and received a strange automatic message that said all of their staff were in a meeting and could not answer the phones, and to send an email for a faster response. I sent an email asking for clarification. Tally replied, citing the previous email from their company, and re-stating that no payments would be made to my credit cards because an investor stopped providing the funds that were used to make the payments to the credit cards, and that payments were no longer being made for anyone. 

The website today still offers the services that I have been wrongfully denied. I am now required to continue payments to Tally, without my credit cards being paid.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On Wednesday, XX/XX/2024, an employee at XXXX XXXX in XXXX, MD, double charged me for one meal totaling {$15.00} that was stolen from me. 

When I asked for a refund the employee claimed he had to take a picture of my credit card # and security code with his personal cell phone and text it to his bosses personal cell phone, because my boss is in his office and it could take a while for him to get here. 

When I refused that option for security reasons, the employee took my receipt and contacted the food and beverage manager. When the manager finally came to me, the manager wrote down my email, phone number, and the last 4 of my CC and claimed he would fix the charge and contact me. The manager at XXXX XXXX  never contacted me and my attempts to reach them have continued to be unsuccessful. 

I sent this information to Bank of America and they immediately closed my charge back request due to lack of a receipt showing incorrect charges. When I called Bank of America to ask why my request was closed so quickly they told me it was because the XXXX  company wanted a receipt that XXXX  food vendor didnt provide. This is clearly fraudulent on XXXX  part, and Bank of Americas part in protecting their customers when using credit cards for purchases. This is my first charge back request in 14 years as a customer with Bank of America and Im frustrated by this entire process.
