I opened a Silver Business Checking account with U.S. Bank on XX/XX/XXXX with promo code XXXX. 

The terms of this offer state that : - An individual signer on the new checking account must be enrolled in U.S. Bank online banking or the U.S. Bank Mobile App using their business profile within 60 days of account opening. 
- Earn your {$500.00} Business Checking bonus by opening a new U.S. Bank Silver, Gold, Gold with Interest or Platinum Business Checking account between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. You must make new deposit ( s ) of at least {$5000.00} in new money deposits ( Direct Deposits, ATM/Branch Deposits, Mobile Check Deposit, ACH or Wires ) within 30 days of account opening and thereafter maintain a balance of at least {$5000.00} until the 60th day after account opening. 

I enrolled in U.S. Bank online and mobile banking, and I deposited {$5000.00} shortly after setting up my account. 

I have satisfied all parts of the bonus ( confirmed on a call with U.S. Bank on XX/XX/XXXX ). The U.S. Bank representative opened a case and stated a 2 business day response time, but I have not heard back.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Greetings, on XX/XX/2023, there were UNAUTHORIZED charges made from my checking account with BANK OF AMERICA. These UNAUTHORIZED charges were transacted through XXXX, as someone fraudulently accessed my XXXX XXXX account, and made the transaction, which deducted the money from my checking account when my cellular device was lost/stolen. These UNAUTHORIZED charges were in the form of 2 payments, one for {$4600.00} and one for {$4500.00}. For a sum total of {$9100.00} in UNAUTHORIZED FRAUDULENT charges. One of the recipients that the money was fraudulently stolen and sent had the name " XXXX XXXX. '' I concluded that THIS PERSON had a part in the FRAUDULENT UNAUTHORIZED charges that were made from my account, and this person must be investigated, and their accounts should be reported. I contacted XXXX to dispute the transactions and gave information on the fraud, yet I was denied a refund of the charges with NO SUBSTANTIAL evidence or documents provided at all regarding the denial decision that was made. I requested documents that support their decision of denial, and all I received was an email showing the transactions that were made, and no other evidence that positively accurately support their denial. I then created a fraudulent claim with my bank ( BANK OF AMERICA. ) After a week of waiting, I was then met with a message including the denial of my claim from Bank of America for my unauthorized charges. There was a message included by Bank of America that stated, " The charge was authorized by you or made by someone who has permission to use the card or account. '' THE CHARGES MADE FROM MY CHECKING ACCOUNT WERE NOT BY ME, AND I DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO USE MY ACCOUNT. There is supporting evidence of the person who was associated with the fraud, as the UNAUTHORIZED money was sent to this person, as their name shows up as one of the persons to who the money was sent to ( " XXXX XXXX ''. ) XXXX clearly has information on where the money was sent to, and which bank the money was withdrawn from. If they further investigated this, they will realize that the money was fraudulently taken from my account and was UNAUTHORIZED. They also have information regarding the banks involved with this fraud, as they can further investigate it. BUT I WAS DENIED OF MY CLAIMS AND DISPUTES BY BOTH XXXX  AND BANK OF AMERICA.

I have submitted numerous letters and have reported my identity stolen in regards to this debt and have forwarded over the proper paperwork to EQUIFAX- however this credit bureau continues to leave debt on my credit file unidentified and unverified.

I am requesting this item be remove once and for all.
