Issue: Opening an account — Account opened without my consent or knowledge
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
Today, XX/XX/year> I received a debit card in the mail for a Wells Fargo debit account I never opened or wanted. I called Wells Fargo using the number provided on the letter. I, between hold time and time spent talking to a person, wasted 10 minutes just to get hung up on. I called again and was transferred to a different department and spoke for another 20 minutes just to be told, " we can not take further action at this time. '' The account is fraudulent and they refuse to do anything about it. I suspect this is another instance of what they were busted for 10 years ago when they opened accounts fraudulently to boost their numbers.

What Happened? 
I am filing this complaint due to unauthorized inquiries persisting on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This is my second request, as the credit bureau has failed to take adequate action after my initial claim, sent on [ XX/XX/XXXX ]. The involved creditors confirmed that they do not possess written authorization or a permissible purpose for these inquiries. '' Unauthorized Inquiries : List the inquiries you continue to dispute : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX FCRA Violations and Relevant Case Law : " These unauthorized inquiries violate several provisions of the FCRA and relevant case law, as follows : 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( Section 604 ) - These inquiries do not meet permissible purposes for accessing my credit report as established in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I also requested deletion under identity theft protections ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-1 ), as these inquiries pose a potential fraud risk. ''

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 10
02 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Back in early XXXX I made a payment on my PayPal Credit account using a previously used/saved bank account. PayPal somehow altered the account details, after I confirmed the account was correct, but before the information reached my bank. This resulted in the wrong account being charged, and overdrafted because it wasn't being used/funded. I disputed the matter with my bank ( they refunded their NSF fees ). Instead of noticing the error with the account numbers, correcting it, and resubmitting the payment, PayPal responded by marking my account delinquent and adding penalty fees. I reached out to PayPal Credit to resolve the matter. I was told they did a " courtesy refund '' of one of the fees. It's not a courtesy for them to fix their mistake. Today I learned that they never corrected the delinquent mark on my account, and it has now been used against me as a reason not to increase my credit limit.

Complaint narrative:
I am currently going through a bankruptcy. Freedom Mortgage has revoked my ability to pay my mortgage online, making my financial hardship worse during my time of need. As a veteran this is disgusting. They received my payment online and are not doing anything with it. My mortgage payment will be late while they attempt to collect late fees on a payment they already received and just won't acknowledge. They lied to me and said that the law is my lawyer has to contact their customer service department. That is an internal company policy and not a law.
