Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
A criminal created a fraudulent transaction that triggered a text from Bank of America on my checking account for {$53.00} from XXXX. I immediately received a phone call from Bank of America fraud department asking me to login to online banking and my account was indeed frozen. The fraud employee walked me through the screens to contest the charge and said he would reissue my debit card in a few days. He then proceeded to tell me a wire was also pending in the amount of {$9100.00} and I needed to reverse it and walked me through the steps to do that. This person instead used this functionality to send a wire in my name to XXXX XXXX. I immediately realized it was fraud and called Bank of American fraud like as soon as I got off the phone and raced to nearest branch. The fraud line did not answer for 45 minutes and then told me there system was down to recall wire. The branch XXXX was helpless. They told me to call back in 1.5 hours - again I waited 45 minutes for someone to answer. 3 hours after the incident one of the employees attempted to find the transaction and recall. I told her it was not acceptable that Bank of America can immediately initiate a wire from a criminal on a blocked account but they can not recall a wire until three hours later. She said the wire was complete and they bank is not liable - I threatened a lawsuit for the wiping out of my checking account by a text initiated from Bank of America. She pretended not to hear me, waited for me to stop speaking, said excuse me but she couldnt hear me and hung up the phone. Three days later I still do not have any information on this issue. I had to call XXXX myself to attempt to red flag the account given to me by the criminal. There was no KYC or financial crimes procedures followed to immediately stop this wire. The fraud line did not work, the branch XXXX was helpless and a system that can instantly send wires for criminals was down to customers to attempt to stop this criminal did not work for hours. All wires on my account should have been frozen once the initial fraud was notified by Bank of America. I would like a response since all my money has left my checking account.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Re : Follow-Up Complaint Regarding Experian Prior Complaint Number XXXX Dear CFPB Representative, I am writing to express my continued concern regarding the unresolved issue outlined in my previous complaint about Experian. Despite my earlier correspondence and the filing of complaint number XXXX, the issue remains unaddressed. I am unable to access my free credit report through annualcreditreport.com, and it has now been over 30 days without a response or resolution from Experian. This delay far exceeds what is reasonable and permissible under the law. 

Background : Experian has failed to provide the information I am legally entitled to access under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, I am entitled to a free annual credit report, yet I have been blocked from obtaining it. My previous attempts to resolve this matter with Experian have been met with inadequate responses, and no meaningful action has been taken. 

Impact on Me as a Consumer : This ongoing issue is directly hindering my ability to monitor my financial health and make informed decisions about my financial future. My inability to access my credit report has caused significant inconvenience and stress, as it is an essential tool for : Tracking my financial growth Planning for future loans or credit opportunities Ensuring my credit history is accurate and up-to-date The lack of a timely and appropriate response from Experian is a clear violation of their obligations under the FCRA, which mandates that consumers have access to their credit reports. This situation reflects poorly on Experians commitment to transparency and consumer rights.

Request for CFPB Intervention : I respectfully request that the CFPB intervene to ensure Experian complies with its legal responsibilities and provides me access to my free credit report without further delay. Additionally, I urge the CFPB to take appropriate action against Experian for failing to resolve this issue within the legally mandated time frame. 

I have attached all relevant correspondence and documentation to assist with your investigation. Please do not hesitate to contact me if further information or clarification is required. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to your response. 

Sincerely, XXXX

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Zions Debt Holdings
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally notify you that your attempts to collect on the alleged debt referenced above are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 USC 1692-1692p. If you are not aware this entire claim is regulated by an arbitration agreement with the original debtor which clearly stipulates that any dispute must be resolved through arbitration due to the binding agreement. To date there has been no arbitration proceedings. As a direct result of that this is considered to be a breach of the arbitration terms listed in the original agreement acknowledged by all involved parties. I confidently assert that you have no right to collect on this alleged debt. 

I am writing this as I humbly seek to have this discrepancy resolved both promptly and amicably. 

While I do not desire or anticipate that your negligence may force me to pursue further legal action, that option will be explored. In the event that needs to happen, you are subject to a significant increase in the demands to cover damages, attorney fees, and more. I am sure a company of your caliber does not look to unreasonably be exposed to those routes. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. We look forward to resolving this issue promptly.
