Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to you again about the error bank did. I made a payment XX/XX/2020 for the exact amount that I received on my paper mortgage bill, {$2600.00}. Later the bank claimed that I paid the wrong amount, but as I've shown before in my previous complaint, I paid the exact amount that was on my bill. Today, I received a paper from the bank that lists that payment and shows XX/XX/XXXX a " bad check reversal '', when I never had a bad check. I paid by phone through my bank of America account, there was never ANY checks made, it was a balance transfer from my account to the mortgage. My account has enough money to pay for the amount requested on the physical paper mortgage statement. Now the bank has decided to label it as a " bad check reversal '' when there was NEVER any check payment being made. This is clearly an attempt to defraud me and refuse to admit that the Bank made a mistake when sending me the bill by mail. If they changed the amount due between the time they sent me the bill and the time I called to pay the bill, they should have notified me when I was making the payment. I have no way of viewing my balance online because the account is not available due to a bankruptcy. I fully believe, the bank is doing everything that they can, to sabotage my account, my credit and my reputation as revenge for having been in a bankruptcy. The bank is clearly trying to make it harder for me to make my payments so that I would miss a payment and they could take me out of my home.

My original requests, concerns and complaints, were NOT answered, so I believe that shows that the bank is not acting in good faith. They are planning to do everything they can to seize my house.

Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
This complaint pertains to Nationstar Mortgage dba Mr. Cooper, the servicer for my mortgage. Mr. Cooper missed a town tax payment in XX/XX/XXXX. I notified Mr. Cooper by phone of the late payment when I received a past due notice from the town in XX/XX/XXXX. After multiple phone and email attempts, I sent a formal written notice of error in XX/XX/XXXX. Mr. Cooper acknowledged the error and paid the town on XX/XX/XXXX but deducted most of the interest ( {$10.00} ) from my escrow account claiming incorrectly it was base taxes. I have attempted several times in writing to ask Mr. Cooper to refund the amount or justify its belief that this amount was base taxes, and I have also sent documents proving this was interest due to the late payment. Mr. Cooper continues not to correct or answer this last error. Additionally, Mr. Cooper has missed the 30 business day limit to respond to my XX/XX/XXXX error notice and the 5 business day limit to acknowledge my XX/XX/XXXX request for information. Correspondence is attached to this complaint.

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: E*TRADE BANK
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
This is to advise that etrade XXXX  closed my accounts without any written or email notifications per their customer agreement. On XXXX XXXX while out of town i noticed i did not have access to my accounts. I called etrade bank and they advised two of my accounts were closed suddenly and the third was closed for everything except investment deposits. I asked why? they stated per their customer agreement they are able to close accounts down. I was questioned about all of my deposits which are all legitimate deposits into my account and the rep questioned why so many companies. I advised that I am a business owner. I have been discriminated against from this banking institution that i have been a customer of for the last 8 years. The rep kept insisting based on the customer agreement they had that choice. I advised per the agreement it also states they would give a customer a 30day notification and send letters to advise of the closing of any accounts and representative confirmed on many occasions during this call this was not done. I had to quickly change banks for direct deposits and withdrawals some of which I had coming in the same day they decided to close the account. They were also redlining the use of my card and account before this denying certain transactions and would not approve them when the funds were available in my account. They have in the last year done unfair trade practices as a banking institution, which has caused me a lot of havoc personally and in my business. They should not be allowed to no follow protocol or discriminate and in their agreement in print it states they will notify a customer and give a 30 day notification. During the time of the account closure there was not a negative balance, I have never carried a negative balance on any of the accounts more than 30 days. There was no fraud activities and although many deposits came in they were legitimate deposits. I asked the rep why was I being questioned what cause and she could not give a complete answer. Also the day before the accounts were suddenly closed I called in with a third party to verify a transaction and the rep asked for my security question with a third party on the line. When asked why this was done he had no answer. I advised when third parties are on the line basic information such as account number and name are only to be disclosed based on what I was told by ETrade. After this situation my account was closed.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Opening an account — Account opened as a result of fraud
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I opened a checking and savings account with Citi Bank on XX/XX/2020, and was subsequently mailed a debit card and temporary PIN mailer. Because I was just going to use the accounts as a savings account, I never planned on activating the debit card and stored the debit card and Temporary PIN mailer together in my bedside table in my bedroom. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I moved out of my house into an apartment. During the move, apparently the debit card and PIN mailer had fallen out and someone had picked them up. On XX/XX/XXXX, whoever got the card was able to activate by using the temporary PIN at an ATM. Once the card had been activated, they spent approximately {$4600.00} before Citi Bank notified me of potentially fraudulent activity.

Upon receiving a call from the Citi Fraud department, I immediately let them know that none of the charges made on the account were made by me and the Citi representative assured me they would cancel the card, send a new one, and that all the money would be refunded to me.

Since then, Citi denied my appeal of the charges, I have appealed roughly 7 more times with the same result, filed a police report and have gained the ATM footage of the woman using my card, and have spent roughly 20 hours on the phone with Citi.

I have written a 5 page letter to them explaining what happened and have included the police report and the ATM footage of the suspect.

Every time I call to verify that they have received the letter via fax, they tell me I have sent it to the wrong location and give me a new fax number to send it to. I have faxed the letter five times and sent a hard copy in the mail and they still can not confirm receipt of the letter.

Additionally, they refuse to contact the XXXX county police officer that conducted the investigation on my behalf and when I asked if he could contact them, they told me " He can call our general customer service line if he wants ''.

This has been the most unprofessional and frustrating banking experience in my life. I plan on escalating this matter to small claims court and suing Citi for their lack of in-place security as to how someone could activate my debit card without me knowing and spend that much money without any notification.
