Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Hello I hope that this message finds you well. I am a consumer let me first start there. This company that I make this complaint against has used my report inaccurately and unlawfully. According to 15 USC 1681e these companies should make sure that are not in violation of 15 USC 1681c which discusses and states that the only reason any information should be furnished on an account is because of federal judgments or if permission was granted. COVID-19 set alot of people back including myself having to walk away from the industry. Now I was checking my credit report on yesterday and I noticed that XXXX XXXX  is reporting multiple late payments and this reporting agency is allowing the furnishing of such information after I asked for accommodations under the CARES ACT which states that information is supposed to show as current and never late. If I may add further to that. There are laws that have and are still currently in place that state that open transactions should not be reported and that also written consent must be given by the consumer which is me to furnish such information and looking at the consumer report the information is incomplete and inaccurate. This is aggravated theft and I am demanding that this account be removed due to the multiple law violations that this reporting agency has broken. This has caused significant trauma. Please allow me to be CLEAR. I am not looking for VERIFIED nor am I looking for those spam like messages that state that we are required to report which is not true by the way. I just provided the law that CONGRESS placed not your policies. I want the account removed or I reserve the right to get the allotted amounted for each violation.

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
After loan closed received instruction for monthly payment and set it up accordingly. In addition to the monthly payment I emailed the company to apply all additional payments to principle only. After making 8 additional payments on a weekly basis they called to notify me that they pushed all payments to XXXX as early payments because I should have called them and there is nothing I can do about paying early. They already applied my payments until next XXXX. 
No company should have the right to take all payments and apply them how they want to without customer notification and secondly call to tell you they were applied to the account differently than requested by customer

Consumer complaint received 2023-01-09 00:00:00
Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
The complete story is provided below. On XX/XX/XXXX, the day I received my employment check, I went ahead and logged into my account to check my checking account to see the deposit. Moments after I checked the deposit, I realized that my checking account dropped from XXXX to XXXX dollars, and as I scrolled through, unauthorized charges began to appear on my Wells Fargo account. I immediately called the bank, and they advised me to file a claim with their fraud department. 

The fraud department began by asking me to identify the fraud charges, which I did, and then inquired about the IP address with which I logged into the bank account with. They discovered that my account was being accessed from locations far from my home, including some from other states. At this point, it was clear that my personal information had been compromised, and the charges were unauthorized. 

This data breach could have been caused by a phone trade-in I recently completed with XXXX When I called XXXX about a phone trade-in plan, I was told to erase my login password rather than the entire phone. I eventually sent my phone via XXXX with the tracking number XXXX. 

XXXX never received my phone, I was told a week later. However, when I inquired about it with XXXX, they informed me that it had been delivered. I filed a ticket with XXXX, but I never received a response. It was only a few days later that my account began to show unauthorized charges. 

After 10 business days, Wells Fargo informed me that they had closed the case and found it against me, which perplexed me because they couldn't explain the IP addresses that were constantly accessing my account from other states for many days during that timeframe. My account was always in good standing, and I am extremely disciplined with no criminal record. I'm hoping the department can assist, and I'm asking Wells Fargo to refund the unauthorized charges to which I'm entitled under federal law. 

I attached some evidence I have proving that the charges are truly unauthorized.

Product: Checking or savings account — CD (Certificate of Deposit)
Issue: Managing an account — Deposits or withdrawals
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow up complaint to the complaint # XXXX described below. Wells Fargo 's reply to that complaint stated they could not find the CD account ending XXXX. Well, duh. That is not my CD account number, which ends XXXX XXXX. That number is clearly printed on the CD and the receipt for same. They need to more " thoroughly review '' their records and find my deposit. I also want to know how a renewable CD with interest reinvested can be " inactive '' or " dormant '' and turned over to the State without notifying me. Here is my original complaint : On XX/XX/XXXX I deposited {$15000.00} with Wells Fargo Bank and received a Certificate of Deposit. I still have it. On the back of this Certificate of Deposit is a cash register Transaction Record receipt for the same amount and a " Thank you, XXXX ''. I forgot about this cd which was to renew in 180 days at 5.02 % interest. Now retired, I'm trying to organize my finances and I discovered the fancy, scrolled, member FDIC, Certificate of Deposit and contacted Wells Fargo to ask about my welcomed discovery. After their search, they said they have NO RECORD of it. What? They said that I should check my state 's Unclaimed Property roster. I did, with no luck. I don't understand how my deposit could be handed over to the state, if that's what happened. I am and have been a Wells Fargo customer since XXXX. I don't understand how a renewable certificate of deposit could be considered " inactive '' and seized by the state, if that is what happened. Also, if this renewable cd was deemed inactive, why didn't the bank contact me? They have my address, the state does, too ( I file taxes every year. I am not dead, yet ). Should I have kept my $ XXXX under my mattress instead of with Wells Fargo?
