Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Late or other fees
Company: Block, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Earlier this week, I noticed that my account reflected a XXXX balance. Today, I checked again and saw that it had dropped further to XXXX, even though I have not used my card. 

I have spoken with Cash App Support multiple times. I was initially told that on XX/XX/year>, my XXXX XXXX  placed a transaction for {$15.00} and was advised to dispute it with my bank. However, when I contacted XXXX, they confirmed that there were no Cash App transactions for XX/XX/year>. 

I then spoke with another representative who stated the charge occurred on XX/XX/year>. Once again, I contacted XXXX, and they confirmed that there were no Cash App transactions for XX/XX/year>, either. They informed me that the last transaction from Cash App on their records was on XX/XX/year>, for {$5.00}. At XXXX request, I provided a screenshot to show this. 

Despite this, I am still being told by Cash App Support to dispute the transaction with my bank. As I have explained, I can not dispute something that does not exist in my banks records. 

Additionally, I do not understand how my account balance changed from XXXX to XXXX when I have not used my card. I recently received a new card, which has not yet been activated or used. These additional charges are not mine.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted to withdraw cash from an ATM at XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX Two transactions were processed on my checking account in the amounts of {$120.00} and {$200.00}. In both cases, the ATM debited my account, but no cash was dispensed. 

I filed a dispute with Axos Bank and submitted their official ATMDebit Card Transaction Dispute Form, stating that I never received any money. Despite this, my dispute was denied, and the charges remain on my account.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because all three major credit reporting agenciesEquifax, Experian, and TransUnionare reporting multiple inaccurate and fraudulent accounts and credit inquiries on my credit reports.

Company: Monterey Financial Services LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was misled into signing documents with XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX under false job promises ( XXXX interview ). This was a scam. They lured me to drive almost 4 hours from XXXX to XXXX under the belief that I would attend a job interview. Instead, I was pressured to sign documents I did not understand or authorize. 

Later, Monterey Financial Services reported a {$1200.00} debt tied to this fraudulent contract. I never authorized this account, and I submitted proof of identity theft : FTC Identity Theft Report # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Police Report # XXXX ( under Criminal Investigations ) XXXX  Complaint ID # XXXX Despite this, Monterey failed to verify authorization before reporting the account. This negligence allowed fraud to occur and caused severe harm to me : Credit score dropped by XXXX points on XXXX XXXX and XXXX points on XXXX. 

This is my first-ever derogatory mark. 

I have been denied by lenders because of this false collection. 

I have suffered financial harm, stress, and reputational damage. 

I formally disputed the account and demanded validation from Monterey. Instead of providing proof of authorization or identity verification, they continued to report the debt. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the late payment entries currently listed on my credit report. I have repeatedly attempted to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, yet no significant action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the inaccuracies remain unresolved. 
This prolonged issue has caused ongoing financial strain and has negatively affected both my credit standing and overall well-being. The process of addressing these errors has been not only frustrating but also mentally and emotionally exhausting. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial history. This includes the timely correction or removal of outdated, incorrect, or unverifiable information. I am therefore urging your office to take immediate and appropriate action to update or delete the reported late payment entries in question.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, because of a delay in check payment from XXXX XXXX XXXX, we made a duplicate online payment in full in the amount of {$41000.00}, creating a credit balance in that amount. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I verbally requested a refund during a recorded call with Citi Customer Service. My request was acknowledged, and I was not informed that a written request was necessary. 

To eliminate any possible ambiguity, I sent an email to Citi and a message via secure online chat as my formal written confirmation of this request under 12 CFR 1026.11 ( a ) ( 2 ), which states : The creditor shall refund any part of the credit balance remaining in the account within seven business days from receipt of a written request from the consumer. 

To date Citi has not refunded the balance and refused to provide a date when they will do so. The also engaged is making multiple misleading statements documented in recorded phone conversations ( on their side ) and a letter that I emailed to Citi executives ( copy attached ).

I AM FORMALLY REQUESTING THE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL OF THE FRAUDULENT ACCOUNTS CURRENTLY LISTED ON MY CREDIT REPORT. I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THESE ACCOUNTS, AND THEIR INCLUSION IS A SERIOUS BREACH OF MY PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL SECURITY. THESE ENTRIES ARE FALSE AND INACCURATE, YET DESPITE MONTHS OF DISPUTING THEM AND PROVIDING SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING AN FTC REPORT, THEY STILL HAVE NOT BEEN REMOVED.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
