Complaint narrative:
I received an email XX/XX/2022 from XXXX which is a company that I had a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  with. The email stated the following correspondence : Saying goodbye is never easy XXXX, You are the reason we built XXXX. Youre the reason we created XXXX XXXX XXXX. All companies change shape and grow at some point. Our time has come and we are saying farewell to our beloved XXXX XXXX XXXX plan to focus our efforts on other products that will help people in greater ways. 


On XX/XX/XXXX, our trusted partner, XXXX, will be taking over for the duration of your loan. You will make payments and manage your account from their website. Aside from XXXX now being the servicer, nothing else about your loan is changing, and all terms will be the same. Continue to make payments on your scheduled due dates. If youre using AutoPay, it will continue to work as usual. Youll be able to download all of your loan documents and statements from the XXXX website. 
1. So my payments which were on auto pay began to come out of my account with the new company as of XX/XX/2022. However, the new company has not reported any of my bi-weekly payments to any of the credit bureaus. And when I tried to file a dispute with all three agencies regarding this matter I was given an message that stated I am unable to dispute the information.

2. Also the company is listing on my credit report that my monthly payments are {$270.00} which is inaccurate. I pay {$120.00} bi-weekly and there are only 4 weeks in a month that comes out to {$250.00} per month not {$270.00} as being reported by the credit reporting agencies. Which you can see from the documentation provided. And the same message was received when I tried to dispute that inaccuracy as well.

Complaint narrative:
BankAmericard Platinum Plus Mastercard Ending in XXXX XXXX  I have reason to believe that Bank of America is violating 15 U.S. Code 1666d ( A ) by failing to offset the balance of my credit account from consumer credit transactions made by this card.

15 U.S. Code 1666d states ; whenever a credit balance in excess of {$1.00} is created in connection with a consumer credit transaction through ( 1 ) transmittal of funds to a creditor in excess of the total balance due on an account, ( 2 ) rebates of unearned finance charges or insurance premiums, or ( 3 ) amounts otherwise owed to or held for the benefit of an obligor, the creditor shall ( A ) credit the amount of the credit balance to the consumers account ; ( B ) refund any part of the amount of the remaining credit balance, upon request of the consumer ; and ( C ) make a good faith effort to refund to the consumer by cash, check, or money order any part of the amount of the credit balance remaining in the account for more than six months, except that no further action is required in any case in which the consumers current location is not known by the creditor and can not be traced through the consumers last known address or telephone number. 

The balance of {$490.00} on my account is evidence that Bank of America has not took the necessary steps to offset the balance from consumer credit transactions on this card as listed in 15 U.S. Code 1666d.
