Consumer complaint received 2024-08-23 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a Wells Fargo credit card online at wellsfargo.com. Shortly after submitting my application, I received a notification from XXXX indicating a credit report pull attempt, which I then realized was due to my frozen credit report. 

After removing the freeze from my credit reports, I reapplied and received a notification that the application required further review. Wells Fargo then contacted me via text message requesting additional information. Upon contacting them, the representative informed me that they couldn't access my credit report and needed my authorization to pull it. I provided this authorization under the belief that no prior report was obtained. The representative then pulled the report and forwarded it for underwriting. 

However, I later received a letter stating that my application was denied due to a lack of credit report. Confused, I reauthorized the credit pull. This time, the application was denied due to too many recent credit card openings within the past XXXX  months. 

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered XXXX hard inquiries from Wells Fargo, all initiated on XX/XX/XXXX. Since I was previously told my report wasn't accessible, I contacted Wells Fargo again requesting the removal of XXXX inquiries, as they seemed unnecessary. Unfortunately, they declined my request.

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.

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

I was looking at my consumer report and notice a few things wasnt in accordance with federal laws I seen that XXXX XXXX XXXX opened XXXX XXXX amount {$8400.00} but the federal law states the social security number belongs to the XXXX and anything purchased with that identifier number is in obligation of the United States USC 8 means that anyone attempting to collect a debt from me is guilty under the false claims act [ FCA ] 31 U.S.C 3729 I also was required to put money down for the transaction title 31 USC sec 3123 all debts are United States Obligations and there is plenty more laws made by Congress that protect me as the consumer 42 USC 408 states asking for social security number on any credit transactions or loans is against the law because there is no lawful money and it is a crime.12 USC 1431 banks cant loan money because theyre the borrowers. UUC 3-104 tell us how to use a negotiable instrument,31 USC 5118. 1681 2a they arent supposed to report transactions 15 USC 1602 I am the original creditor. 15 USC 1605 finance charge shall be the sum of all charges, if it isnt its a violation and these other laws should be looked into 15 USC 1635, 15 USC 1662,12CFR s 202,15 USC 1602g USC 8, 12 USC 95a , 18 USC 894 is a federal statute that prohibits the use of extortionate means to collect or attempt to collect credit extensions, or to punish nonrepayment. The statute is part of Title 18, XXXX XXXX of the U.S. Code, which covers crimes and criminal procedure. These persons have violated my federally protected rights. Banks have been committing fraud since 1933 knowingly and willingly deceives the American people for financial gain every loan agreement I sign is actually a payable instrument used to pay for the service/ product so in fact its actually an exchange and not a loan in an exchange you are trading things of equal value by using my social security number.
