Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: UNITED COMMUNITY BANK
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I was charged a {$72.00} overdraft fee on XX/XX/22 by United Community Bank as soon as my {$500.00} deposit was made pending to my account. I have no idea why or what transaction caused it, and based on my review of my account it looks like it caused my posted balance to become - {$20.00}. 

This {$72.00} sounds exactly like what CFPB stated was illegal with their recently issued policy guidance. It is certainly predatory and usury. Amusingly, the circular describes these outrageously high surprise fees as being " as high as {$36.00} '', when this one is DOUBLE.

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer. I am filing this complaint with the CFPB against Equifax Inc. because they have failed their requirements as outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) of providing completeness or accuracy of an item of information on my consumer file. I sent Equifax a dispute letter on XX/XX/2022, labeled as Exhibit A, which they received on XX/XX/2022. They finished investigating my dispute which was mailed to me and I received on XX/XX/2022. The date on the Equifax report was XX/XX/2022, report/confirmation # XXXX. As stated on the report : We have reviewed your concerns and our conclusions are : COLLECTIONS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN PAID IN FULL WILL REMAIN ON THE CREDIT FILE SEVEN YEARS FROM THE DATE OF FIRST DELINQUENCY. The information you disputed has been verified as accurate, however, information unrelated to your dispute has been updated The information that they updated was Recent Balance which went from {$4000.00} to {$4000.00} as seen in the screenshots labeled Exhibit B, C.1, & C.2. I sent Equifax a follow-up letter asking for the method of verification, labeled Exhibit D, on XX/XX/2022, which was received on XX/XX/2022, labeled Exhibit E. Equifax failed to provide me with the method of verification which is stated that I can request per 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( B ) ( 7 ) and that XXXX must provide after receiving a request from the consumer for that description no later than 15 days. It has been XXXX ( business ) days, and I still have not received any information on Equifaxs method of verification for an item on my consumer report. I have given Equifax more than the federally required 15 days to provide me with the information that I requested to see how they verified an account to make sure of its completeness and accuracy. If the disputed information, after the reinvestigation, is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, then Equifax must promptly delete that item of information from my consumer file.
