Complaint narrative:
I had establish auto pay for my credit cards at Bank of Amrica However, I noticed using XXXX  XXXX  that I was late on a credit card ending in XXXX and was charged late fees and interest. I signed into my account using their app and immediately paid the the total amount on that card. I then called their customer service and was told that the auto pay was cancelled due to no activity for several months. This action was never conveyed to me prior to this conversation. I never received notice a payment was due since I was on paperless statements and was not worried about payments since I had auto pay enforced. I then asked for the account to be closed since I felt cancelling auto pay without notice was an unfair consumer practice. Since, I was never notified about the cancellation, I asked that the late fees and interest be reversed. They replied, NO. When they closed my accounts they reported the credit reporting bureaus the closer as closed by credit grantor instead of closed by consumer As a result of their unfair action, my .credit score dropped from the low XXXX XXXX to around XXXX. 
I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX retired person rely on Banks to provide information prior to taking unfair action like cancelling auto pay.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

Complaint narrative:
For a couple of weeks I have been making deposits. Often Navy Federal moves the deductions and takes money from my account for purchases twice. For example I made a payment for {$410.00} on XX/XX/24. the payment was taken from my available balance. Today I made two deposits totaling {$890.00}. The payment has been moved to posted XX/XX/24 and has been deducted from my balance again. I have gone into the branch, called and emailed. I have asked that an account specialists audit my account. I have asked for a detailed break down of each transaction with balances, not received. I went to an ATM and it did not disburse funds, but the money was deducted from my account. Navy Federal removed the whole transaction once the ATM company completed the return, but they never replaced the funds. No one will listen and as well I have been hung up on by the supervisor.
