Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I received an alert email from BOA that my credit was charged {$1600.00} on XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX I was in XXXX at that day. I called BOA immediately to report and dispute this transaction, and meanwhile, I locked my card from the online banking. It was another transaction at {$590.00} from XXXX store tried to make after XXXX minutes. Thank god, I locked my credit card after the first transaction, so the amount at {$590.00} has not gone through. The agent from BOA credit department told me no need to worry. BOA would take care of the fraud transactions and send me the replacement card. However, they charged that dispute amount {$1600.00} again after XXXX weeks on XXXX XXXX. I feel so confused that they knew I was impossible to make the transaction and lock the card at the same time, but they still want me to take responsible on that fraud. It doesnt make sense.

Complaint narrative:
Request for Removal of Inaccurate Late Payments from Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of inaccurate late payments listed on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1666 ( b ), and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am entitled to have accurate information reported on my credit file. The late payments in question are inaccurately reported on my credit file and do not reflect my payment history accurately. I assert that I have never been late on any payments, as I have always been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts. The fact that a bill may have been sent to my address does not constitute proof of a late payment. The reporting of these inaccurate late payments violates my rights under the FCRA, as they do not reflect my true creditworthiness. Additionally, the reporting of false late payments may constitute a violation of the FDCPA, as it misrepresents the status\ of my accounts :, Number : Furthermore, the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) requires accurate reporting of credit information to ensure consumers are treated fairly and have access to credit based on accurate data. I demand that all late payments currently reported on my credit file be updated to reflect 100 % on-time payments, as per my true payment history. Failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under the FCRA and other consumer protection laws. I request that you investigate this matter promptly and provide me with written documentation of the removal of these inaccurate late payments from my credit report within 30 days XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
