Bank Amrica closed my account for no reason, some of them have never committed fraud, every time I call, they never let me open a new account, they tell me that I can no longer be a client of theirs and they never give me the reason, I have not made any mistake, the only thing I did was I tried to change my password and they blocked my online access.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: TFS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have had the mortgage for many years, and had set up automatic payments. Initially I has some problems with automatic payments as Third Federal would refuse payments directly to the mortgage account number. They could not fix this. I also had a separate account with them, and I set up automatic payments to go to that account instead, and then automatically forward to the mortgage account. This worked every month for many years. The bank then changed something in their system without notifying me, and the transfer was rejected. I noticed the error a bit more than a month later, and corrected it, but they already reported the missed payment. My credit score when from excellent to bad. I also lost money due to fees and interests falsely charged against me. 

I have not been able to reswolve this, and I have not found anyone to talk to that can tell me why the bank failed me, and why they will not take responsibility for their defect. They said they tried to reach me. I was never contacted. I am easy to reach by phone, email, letter or any other way, and resolved it as soon as I discovered the banks error.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I attempted to close my account with Venmo, and Venmo does not appear to be willing to close my account unless I provide a picture of my government issued ID, and a picture of me holding my ID. 

I don't like the idea of keeping an account open for a money service that I no longer plan to use. I also don't want to give out personal information that shouldn't need to be given in order to cease business with that company. 

Companies are routinely hacked and data is routinely leaked. By requiring personal information that is not necessary for closing my account, Venmo is putting my data and my identity at risk. I have been able to close accounts on many other money based services ( such as banks ) without needing to jump through so many hoops.
