Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Fraudulent charges occurred on my account from XX/XX/2022 to XX/XX/2022. I was out of town and not even in California. I contacted Wells Fargo on XX/XX/2022 to alert the bank. The employee marked which charges were fraudulent and ordered a new debit card. I received a letter stating that the bank did not view the charges as fraudulent and would not reimburse me for the money taken out. The letter did not state the correct dollar amount and stated that my pin was used to make the charges. This claim is incorrect. When filing the initial complaint, the banker noted that my pin was not used on the charges. The following charges are fraudulent : XX/XX/2022 XXXX 's {$64.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX  {$1.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX {$0.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX$13.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX {$12.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX {$16.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX {$44.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX  {$150.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX {$69.00}, XX/XX/2022 XXXX {$35.00}. Due to the fraudulent charges, I was also charged a service fee of {$10.00} on XX/XX/2022. I contacted the bank again to discuss the claim and the banker filed another claim. I followed up on XX/XX/2022 since I had not received any updates from them. The banker was unable to reach a supervisor to assist me further but stated she would have one call me. The supervisor called and left a voicemail. I have now called and left three separate voicemails for the supervisor with no response. The employees over the phone can not provide any information as to why the bank has taken longer than the allotted 10 days to process my claim. These charges are not mine and the bank guarantees to protect my account. The entirety of the charges, {$410.00}, plus the service fee of {$10.00}, needs to be refunded so I can close my bank account. No one will give me any answers.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I sent a certified factual dispute letter to Transunion that was received by them on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. I called two weeks later to check on the status and the representative told me they had no dispute open. I waited another 2 weeks and called back to see if anything changed. That individual told me that they did not have any investigation opened. I have receipt of them receiving my letter. There are several inconsistent items on my credit report that are hindering me from moving forward in the homebuying process. I spent money sending the letter certified and I have absolutely no faith that they did not receive my letter. I am including a copy of the letter sent with visual proof of incorrect items, as well as delivery receipt.

Company: FinCo Services Inc DBA Current
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account with Current ( Finco Services Inc. ) on or around XX/XX/2022. I initially made 2 small deposits to establish the account and ensure everything was working correctly. Next I created and funded 3 " saving pods '' with dollar amounts close to the {$2000.00} maximum per pod. Within 24 hours of accepting the deposits Current closed my account.

Following an internal review of your account activity, we are exercising our right to permanently close your Current account, and if applicable, your linked Current teen account ( s ), pursuant to the Account Agreement, Section C, Article 12. We are also terminating your access to any Current services, and this decision can not be appealed. 

I did request further information and was sent the following reply : We dont generally provide specifics related to the difficult decision to close your Current account. However, please know an objective and detailed analysis of account and transaction history, along with intelligence collected from sophisticated external sources, supports our decision to part ways. Based on this analysis we strongly believe appropriate action was taken. 

Current has now informed me they will only release my money after receiving a hold harmless letter via email from XXXX XXXX. XXXX will provide the letter to the account holder but due to security concerns will not email it to Current. Current informed me they will only accept an email from XXXX ; therefore, they won't return my money. Current did send three auto emails to me this morning, XX/XX/2022, stating the deposits had been settled and the are funds available. After I received the emails XXXX at Current has confirmed they will not release any money until XXXX emails them a hold harmless letter.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I opened a Bank of America XXXX XXXX credit Card on XX/XX/2021 pursuant to a promotion of 50,000 bonus points for spending {$3000.00} within the first 90 days. Bank of America charged me a {$95.00} annual fee before I made even a single purchase with the card. I then satisfied the {$3000.00} purchase minimum within 90 days. The 50,000 reward points should have posted months ago by the express terms of the promotion ( attached ). I called Customer Service on XXXX XXXX, XXXX  to ask about the reward points. XXXX confirmed that I met the minimum purchase requirement to receive the promotional points, and said the rewards take at least a statement cycle to post. He said the points would post soon ( in next statement cycle ). Five months later, the points still have not posted. Instead, BofA imposed another {$95.00} annual fee on my account, reflected on the card statement I just received today. Apparently BofA is deliberately dragging out the promised reward posting to receive at least one more annual fee. This should not be allowed.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
Citizens Bank acquired my XXXX savings, checking, and overdraft accounts earlier this year. I began trying to close those accounts in XXXX. This required several phone calls, a branch visit, then several more phone calls. It appears my accounts are finally closed, but Citizens continues to send me statements for the savings account, which required yet another phone call to them today. They advised me to ignore the statements. I won't go into the details of my branch visit and the at least five phone calls required to get them to close my accounts, but I think they should be investigated, because their incompetence is truly astonishing.
