Multiple times I have address Wells Fargo concerning overdraft fees when there are insufficient funds in the account. Ive even tried to get them to disallow the overdraft coverages they offer and have received information from them that they recognize me doing both. Yet overdrafts continue to come through at their discretion. Unfortunately this has no cost me over XXXX $ in overdraft fees when the account is already overdrawn and allowing charges, debits, and transactions to occur. IF THERE IS NO MONEY IN AN ACCOUNT, NO TRANSACTIONS IN ANY FORM SHOULD BE ALLOWED. They are using my future funds to cover for a charge that should not be accepted, and then charging me extra for them doing it. This is not a service I want or desire from any company let alone my Bank.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in 60 days to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 
Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

The representative then kept trying to pressure me to start the process over by making a dispute via phone or upload n their website right then instead of honoring the previous requests. My resolution is for them to honor the dispute letters that I have already sent.
