Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against USAA Federal Savings Bank for improperly returning a payment to my mortgage company, resulting in significant financial damages and harm to my credit.

ACH payment was initiated from my USAA account to my mortgage company. Despite having sufficient funds available, USAA erroneously returned this payment. I was not notified of this issue until after XX/XX/2022, when my mortgage company sent me a notice. 

On XX/XX/2022, at XXXX XXXX, I contacted USAA about this incorrectly returned payment. The USAA agent acknowledged that funds were available in my account at the time of presentment to the payee, confirming the bank 's error in not honoring the payment. While USAA reversed their {$29.00} NSF fee, they refused to compensate me for the additional charges imposed by my mortgage company as a result of their error.

This error by USAA resulted in the following damages : 1. A {$29.00} returned payment fee from my mortgage company 2. A {$120.00} late fee from my mortgage company 3. My mortgage being reported as 30 days late to credit bureaus, causing a significant drop in my credit score 4. Expenses incurred for credit restoration services to address the credit score drop 5. Denial of credit applications due to the lowered credit score 6. Potential long-term impacts on my creditworthiness and financial opportunities USAA 's actions appear to violate the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E, which require financial institutions to conduct prompt and reasonable investigations of reported errors [ 1 ]. Additionally, USAA 's failure to properly process my payment may constitute an unfair practice under the Consumer Financial Protection Act [ 1 ].

I ask the CFPB to investigate this matter and ensure USAA complies with all applicable laws and regulations, including the EFTA, Regulation E, and the Consumer Financial Protection Act. I also request any additional compensation or remedies to which I may be entitled under these or other relevant laws.

There are certain clear and conspicuous disclosures that this creditor was supposed to provide me with 21 days prior to my statement due date that I didn't receive which is a violation of 15 US code 1666b.

Also 18 US code 8 states that the obligation of this day is already paid for by the United States.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was reviewing my credit reports. XXXX, Equifax and XXXX. 

I noticed that on XX/XX/XXXX there was a hard inquiry on my credit reports from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I knew that I did not have nor did I attempt to obtain any creditcard from XXXX. 

I called XXXX at XXXX and spoke to them two times which is their fraud department. The fraud department checked my concern about someone applying for credit against my name, first and last name, date of birth, social security number and each time could not find any attempt to obtain credit with that information or any active account. 

I explained to them that the acocunt was listed on my credit reports, experian, equifax and transunion XX/XX/XXXX. The Fraud department stated they can't report to have it removed from my credit report because they do not show any active account or any attempt that I have even tried to apply for credit via my social security number, date of birth, first name last name, etc. 

I then called the credit reporting agency equifax who states that ikea need to tell them to remove it they just can't remove something. I explained to them what XXXX services said then the guy told me I have to file an FTC report so they can remove it from my credit report. 

I just want all of my credit reports updated to have this hard inquiry removed asap! ~
