Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, a charge of {$200.00} was deducted from my checking account from XXXX that I did not authorize. On XX/XX/XXXX once I was notified electronically, I contacted my bank, Santander, and advised them about the unauthorized charge on my account and to dispute the charge. I also contacted XXXX to file a complaint and to dispute the charge. The next day, I received an email from XXXX that my checking account was refunded the {$200.00}, and the charge was made for a XXXX purchase. I thought the case was resolved, then on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Santander advising me they agree with the merchant and my checking account will be charged the {$200.00} for the XXXX purchase. I tried to call Sandtander 's card claims contact center twice and was on hold for over 10 minutes. I decided to email their contact center to request a call. I do not agree with their decision and no determination documents were attached.

Complaint narrative:
We had an alarm system with XXXX and we had a dispute with XXXX and they said that they were apart of XXXX and that we had to pay our XXXX XXXX bill that they wrongfully billed us for and threaten to close my account and charge me as if I left my contract which is untrue because i tried to pay them the money but they would not take it and said they would have to turn my alarm system off. Which is unfair because when we signed a contract they had nothing to do with our separate dispute with XXXX XXXX. We did not inter our contract with the alarm with XXXX XXXX   it was with XXXX and they are trying to collect something that has nothing to do with them. So we tried to pay them as I said but they did not take our money and I feel like how you gon na charge us to cancel the contract when you guys cancelled our contract without our permission so that is they fault because I cant make they take my money.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I acquired a copy of my credit report from all three credit bureaus in XX/XX/XXXX. I discovered an account called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. This account seems to be for an auto loan and has a balance of almost {$5000.00} USD. I contacted all three of the credit bureaus and reported this as Fraud. They conducted an investigation and disputed the information with the creditor. The results of the investigation came back and the creditor replied that the account is verified and belongs to me. I spoke to the credit bureaus again and they told me that if this account is really not your account, then I should start another investigation and this time the subject of the investigation will be Identity Theft. They also told me that if I submit a personal statement and obtain a police report. Then that can be included in the investigation as documents supporting your case for Fraud and Identity Theft. Once again the results came back with the same results and response from the creditor. I proceeded to resubmit a dispute to the credit bureau XXXX almost every single month. I also contacted the creditor multiple times and the last time I contacted them I was so frustrated and just wanted this inaccurate information off of my account I told the representative that I would just pay whatever money is owed so that they can be satisfied and remove this account from my credit report. I was told they can not do that and if I did that. The account balance would be reported as {$0.00} dollars but the account would still remain on my report until it falls off. In the meanwhile as I was dealing with this, I did receive a correspondence from the creditor with some kind of fraud questionnaire and affidavit. I filled out this information and sent it to them. 3 months have passed by and I didn't receive a single response. I find this company very unprofessional, it seems like they are just playing games and trying to give me the runaround. With the many investigations that I submitted against this creditor they have yet to send any proof that this account belongs to me. If they fail to do so then they are not legally fulfilling their obligation as a creditor in this situation. For more the account should be removed from my credit report immediately. This is causing me personal loss because this account is showing future creditors that I am irresponsible and present myself as potential credit risk for any and all future credit decisions.

Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: POPULAR BANK
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX, with no warning, unilaterally decided to block all customers accounts from transferring even minimal amounts out. Because of that, I nearly bounced a check elsewhere. 

In trying to resolve it, they requested a proof of the account where the money came from which I provided. They said I should have transfer availability within 24 hours. Its been 3 times that, they refuse to let me transfer a miniscule amount, they refuse to let me talk to their fraud department and they refuse to let me talk to a supervisor. 

I am all for fraud prevention. But there is no fraud, there was no warning. This is just shoddy business practices. 

I will be closing my account as soon as I can without incurring a fee but I have no idea how much longer my money will be held hostage because of this pitiful excuse of a bank.
