Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request your assistance in resolving a matter involving fraudulent charges on my Wells Fargo debit card and the bank 's failure to adequately address my claims. 

On XX/XX/scrub> 2024, I noticed XXXX unauthorized transactions on my Wells Fargo debit card, totaling {$4900.00}. I immediately reported these charges to Wells Fargo and submitted a claim for reimbursement. Unfortunately, my initial claim was denied without sufficient explanation. 

On XXXX XXXX, 2024, I re-filed my claim, but upon following up on XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that the claim had not been processed. I resubmitted the claim on the same day, and on XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email confirming that case number XXXX had been submitted and would require XXXX  days for investigation. 

Despite these assurances, when I called Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX, I was told that the charges were deemed legitimate. I was advised to contact XXXX, the debit card issuer, but they informed me that Wells Fargo was the decision-maker. In an attempt to escalate the matter, I contacted my branch banker on XX/XX/XXXX, who promised that the case would be reviewed by the XXXX team. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response once again stating that the charges were legitimate, now referencing claim number XXXX. 

Throughout this process, I have repeatedly requested supporting documentation for Wells Fargo 's determination, but have received nothing. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Wells Fargo again to express my concerns, and on XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email indicating that the case is still under review, now referenced under claim number XXXX. 

It has been XXXX  days since I first reported these fraudulent charges, and I am no closer to resolving this issue. The lack of transparency and the repeated denial of my claims, despite clear evidence of fraud, is both frustrating and unacceptable. 
I am seeking your intervention to expedite the resolution of this matter and to ensure that I am reimbursed for the fraudulent charges. Additionally, I request that Wells Fargo provide all documentation related to their investigation and decisions. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your assistance in resolving this issue.
