Complaint narrative:
This Complaint is against XXXX XXXX XXXX at Wells Fargo Executive Office- at Wells Fargo Bank . XXXX XXXX is the most recent member of the W.Fargo Executive Office and the Enterprise Complaints Management Office, to take over my Case / Complaint against W.Fargo. Ongoing for 14 months thus far- due to W. Fargo allowing my Retirement Savings of {$8800.00} to be drained through Fraudulent Transactions- -- AFTER I had everything in place to prevent this -- specifically my W. Fargo accounts deactivated and disabled. 
I was wrongly thinking that if someone works with the Executive Office, they should be seeking a Resolution. And this issue is what my Complaint is based on!! XXXX XXXX has only notified me x 1, that she now has my case. I have sent several Emails- no response. MANY, Many, attempts to call XXXX XXXX, no answer, no return calls, and strangely, no way to leave a message. Therefore, how can we finally get a Resolution in my Case, if XXXX XXXX refuses all communication with me!! 
And this validates once again, the reason that Wells Fargo has been voted the most hated bank in America in many, many, on-line surveys. AND WELLS FARGO IS VERY, VERY, WORTHY OF THIS NOMINATION. JUST DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account with TD Bank Credit Services while purchasing furniture at Ramour & Flanagan in XXXX, CT. The purpose of opening the account was based on the zero percent financing for 12 months. Shortly after opening the account, I attempted to set up automatic payment from my checking account. On at least 4 occasions, I received an email confirming my account was setup for direct payment, however on all 4 occasions, I received a letter in the mail days later stating that my account was rejected. There was no reason provided as to why this was happening. I tried to resolve this multiple times with no solution. What is most puzzling is that I have a separate account for a purchase made from another furniture retailer and have had no such problem. 

After multiple attempts to resolve this, I called the customer service number and paid the account balance off and receive a confirmation number for the final transaction. Approximately 2 weeks later, I received a letter from TD Credit Services notifying me the account balance had been fully paid and the account was closed. A couple of weeks after receiving the letter, I received a statement from TD Bank Credit Services stating that I had a remaining balance of {$35.00}. I did not the pay the balance initially as I received notification that the account was paid in full and closed. 

The following month, I received another invoice for the same {$35.00} charge. I went to my online account to pay the {$35.00} figuring something must have been outstanding. The TD online account took my payment, and then 3 days later rejected my payment. When I finally reached someone to try and resolve the issue, I was told the {$35.00} was for a returned payment, I stated that TD sent me the invoice for the {$35.00} charge. 

I have since contacted TD Bank Credit Services online to try and resolve the issue. I sent all documentation showing the confirmation of the closed account as well as the confirmation number for the balance being paid in full. On XX/XX/24 I received a notice from TD Bank Credit Services stating the payment was due. There was no phone number or email to contact to dispute the ruling. On XX/XX/24 I received a statement now with an amount due of {$210.00}. 

In summary, there is no way to resolve this as TD Bank Credit Services is rejecting my payments from a valid bank account and is fraudulently charging interest on an account that is closed. In addition. XXXX action has been recorded without any possibility to resolve. 

Any help to resolve this matter would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks, XXXX XXXX
