Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XX/XX/2023 I submitted a payment to Bank of America for payment to my credit card. My credit card account send me an alert & said payment was due & I forgot about sending the 1st payment & I subsequently submitted another payment on XXXX XX/XX/2023. On XXXX XXXX I received another alert & sent a 3rd payment ; but was able to cancel this payment & the called the bank to see if I could cancel one of the other payments. The CS representative told me that both payments processed & that i would not be able to cancel or return the payment to my account until after it posted. On XXXX XX/XX/2023, I received two notices from BOA saying that both payments failed & that I was late. I reviewed my account & previously transferred funds on XXXX XXXX to cover these payments. Upon calling BOA the CS representative stated that there was insufficient funds in my account to cover the payments & as I look at the account this is not the case. I already transferred money to the account. 

here are my concerns : 1. Previously, I had only been late once on a credit card payment & it was for less than 5 days & BOA reduced my credit line 2. if BOA used the credit technology, I would have not received multiple " Alerts '' telling me that my credit card payment was due & I wouldn't have made multiple payments 3. in an effort to charge customers late fees or reduce their credit line I suspect BOA is playing with their algorithms and picking and choosing which payments will be held & which will be paid & at what time 4. BOA has proven to reduce credit lines not based upon any standardly acceptable format, but rather periodic reviews by humans who apply non existent standards & reduce lines of credit based upon assumptions 5. the two failed payment notices ( which previously showed posted ) took longer than industry standard & did not take into account that money could have been transferred from other BOA account to cover these insufficiencies, had alerts & notices been timely

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2023 I notified consumer credit reporting agency Chexsystems that there was a new negative item added improperly to my consumer Chexsystems report. This was negative item added by XXXXXXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/2023. I sent a letter in writing mailed to Chexsystems in which I disputed the new negative item as a result of unauthorized charges being done on my XXXX XXXX checking account including an identity theft victim assistance notice I was sent my XXXXXXXX XXXX and forwarded that document to Chexysystems in writing via US Postal Mail in XX/XX/2023. In XX/XX/2023, Chexsystems responded by stating they verified the item belonged to me and it would remain in my Chexsystems report for 5 years. I responded again explaining this item was placed as a result of identity theft and unauthorized charges and they should remove the negative item. I also asked for proof of their investigation.. whether that be proof these charges and negative item was authorized. I stated if they failed to provide signatures and documentation showing this was not identity theft they are required to delete the item from my consumer Chexsystems report. Chexysystems is continuing to violate my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by not providing documentation or proof that shows this item is not identity theft. Chexsystems is also violating my rights under the FCRA by not sending me the proper proof that meets the guidelines in the FCRA to me in writing.
