Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Unjustified Account Closure by BMO Bank N.A . 

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally file a complaint against BMO Bank N.A . ( BMO ) regarding the closure of my credit card account without any valid reason or explanation. 

On XX/XX/2025, I received a letter dated XX/XX/ 2025, from BMO stating that following a regular review of my account, they had decided to close it. The only reasoning provided was : In accordance with the terms of our cardholder agreement with you, which allows us to close your account at any time for any reason. We are unable to reconsider this decision.

This response is vague and lacks transparency. I immediately contacted BMO customer service to inquire further. During the call, I emphasized that my account has always been in excellent standing, with no late payments or delinquencies. I requested to speak with a supervisor for clarification. Unfortunately, I was given no further explanation and was instead advised to contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau if I wished to dispute the decision. 
I have never had any credit card account closed under such circumstances. This action appears arbitrary and raises concerns about fairness and accountability in how BMO treats its customers.

Company: Professional Finance Company, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
There are XXXX duplicate / identical collection accounts on my credit report, showing as Professional finance com. Located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CO. XXXX. Phone # XXXX. Both amounts {$720.00}, both dates opened, XX/XX/XXXX both from medical company which I will not name due to HIPAA rights. I called to dispute these with XXXX and report # XXXX was generated. For both collection accounts. The next day, it came back as debt was valid. They did not listen to anything I said. First of all, it can not be valid when it clearly, and publicly violates my HIPAA rights. Secondly, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finalized a rule banning the inclusion of medical debt on credit reports as of XX/XX/XXXX. The CFPB prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including medical debt on credit reports. That being said, XXXX credit reporting agency needs to remove these XXXX duplicate medical debts off of my credit report because it is illegal. The collection agency itself, Professional Finance Com needs to do it.

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me.

The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!
