Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX and I am having some issues with Credit Card department. I had originally applied for a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of 2022 to help rebuild my credit profile. In late XXXX I received my first statement but never received my card. I reached out to customer service and they advised me that they would send out a replacement card and restart my account so I can make the Annual fee payment after I receive my card. 
I then receive my second statement but did not receive my card again. I contacted customer service and informed them about my card, they agreed to send out a second card and again reset my account. I then receive my third statement and no card. At this point I called customer service and requested that my account be closed. I was told that nothing was reported to my credit due to this discrepancy. 
I recently got a copy of my credit report and not only did they report XXXX lates but they also reported XXXX different accounts. This is very damaging to my credit so I reached out to customer service to get these accounts removed as I never received the credit cards. I was informed that XXXX XXXX is unable to do anything about this and that it should be disputed through the credit bureaus. I advised her the information being reported is correct and is hurting my credit drastically. I requested to speak with a manager but was denied. The representative would rely my concern to the manager and the manager to would advise the representative what response to give me. 
The second time I reached out and was finally about to speak with a supervisor, she informed me that 3 accounts WERE NOT reported and that only 3 cards were issued. I advised that 3 accounts are reported and to please remove them or to transfer me to someone that could help with the situation. She insisted that I should take to the credit bureaus as they can not do anything about it.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Urgent Request to Rectify Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Dear Sir/Ma, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring your immediate attention to a serious matter regarding my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I believe that your current actions are in direct violation of several sections of the FCRA, as outlined below : Violation of 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A : The FCRA guarantees my right to privacy, and it is evident that your recent actions have infringed upon this right.

Violation of 5 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : The FCRA clearly states that a consumer reporting agency must not furnish an account without my explicit written instruction. It has come to my attention that this provision has been disregarded.

Violation of 15 U.S.C 1666B : The FCRA specifies that a creditor can not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. I have evidence indicating that you have incorrectly categorized a payment as late.

Given the gravity of these violations, I hereby request your immediate attention and action to rectify this situation. I insist that you promptly remove the late payment and any associated negative reports from my account. Furthermore, I kindly request that you update my account in accordance with the provisions set forth in the FCRA.

I trust that you understand the urgency and importance of addressing this matter without delay. Failure to comply with the FCRA may result in legal consequences, and I would prefer to resolve this matter amicably and swiftly.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue and expect a written response from you confirming the necessary actions taken to remedy the violations mentioned above. I look forward to a favorable resolution and a restored credit profile that reflects my accurate financial standing.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this urgent matter. 

Yours sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Truist Bank failed to apply principal balance to the principal account for set off. Violation : I submitted a restrictive endorsement ( Bill of Exchange Act ) on several occasions ( endorsed payment coupon ) which is a negotiable instrument and lawful form of payment. Truist Bank denied the lawful form of payment and therefore caused an issue with the account. 





I, XXXX, XXXX : on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX CFO XXXX XXXX of Truist Bank by certified mail XXXX XX/XX/23 instructing CFO XXXX XXXX to apply my principals balance to my principals account for set off. I sent CFO XXXX XXXX my tender along with my instructions pursuant to the Bills of Exchange Act. I informed Truist Bank that it is not now, nor has it ever been, my intention to avoid paying any obligation that I lawfully owe. I am not refusing to pay. I am trying to set off this debt as instructed by law. My tender and instructions were refused on both occasions. I notified CFO XXXX XXXX of Truist Bank by certified mail again dated XX/XX/23 and provided my tender and instructions. Again, Truist Bank failed to perform their fiduciary duty. I received letters from Truist Bank stating that they do not accept my presentment or negotiable instruments. This is described as Dishonor pursuant to the Bills of Exchange Act ( Section 80 ). I notified CFO XXXX XXXX of Truist Bank a 3rd time dated XX/XX/23, by certified mail and again instructed him to apply my principals balance to my principals account for set off. I sent CFO XXXX XXXX my tender along with my instructions pursuant to the Bills of Exchange Act. Once again, my instructions were refused. Pursuant to the Federal Reserve Act ( Section 29 ), Truist Bank has shown a pattern of misconduct and knowingly breached their fiduciary duty ( Third Tier ). 



Federal Reserve Act section 16 Part 1 and 2 states that once I submitted my application for credit, the application serves as collateral security. In an equitable contract according to contract law, both parties should receive equal consideration. I have not received my equal consideration on the collateral security created from the application in the form of interest or equity to set off the debt for the Truist account ending in 4862. 12 USC 1431 also states banks are borrowers and to pay interest on debentures ( debt instrument ).

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2023 : I was a victim of a XXXX scam. The scammer posed as one of my friends from high school and created a XXXX XXXX. The XXXX posted stated that he received a promotion and therefore is selling furniture and other items. I inquired about an item that was for sale and we agreed Id purchase these items for a deposit of {$350.00}. I sent the {$350.00} through Zelle on my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX app to who I believed was my friends wife. Shortly after sending that money I read comments from mutual friends under the original post and realized I was a victim of a scam. I felt used and so sick to my stomach. I was taken advantage of. I immediately called my bank to report the incident and take the next steps to get my money back. I also did my best to protect others from this scammer by reporting the zelle recipients email.
