Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: ZIONS BANCORPORATION
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I have an account with National Bank of Arizona which is a division of XXXX, XXXX. I have {$3400.00} in the account and they deactivated my online banking and debit card because it had reached a {$0.00} balance for a little while. I was visiting in Texas and they told me they have a sister branch in XXXX XXXX, Texas called XXXX XXXX I informed them over the phone I had an expired license and a yellow slip of paper from the XXXX that was stamped by the XXXX showing the issue date and proof of new licensure because it takes them a month to send me a new license. The national bank of arizona supervisor called the XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX and told me they would be able to give me my money if I brought those documents over to the bank. I drove 60+ miles to XXXX XXXXXXXX and brought my expired license, my proof of new drivers licensure paperwork, my certificate of live birth, my social security card and my school ID and they informed me they would not be disbursing any funds to me because their policy states I need to have a hard copy of my drivers license. 

I called the online banking service later and informed them of what happened and they activated my online banking for me after I was able to fill in the security questions. Then I added an external bank account to the system and then they deactivated my online banking without explanation. They then demanded I give them a phone number to verify my identity, so I did, and they said that phone number I gave was n't going to be verified and their " system '' listed 2 phone numbers that I never even heard of and one phone number that was super old that I did n't even have anymore, to verify me. 

Basically they are refusing to give me the money that is in my account until I show up at their bank account in XXXX XXXX with a hard copy of my new drivers license, which can take over a month to receive, even though they promised me over the phone I would be able to make a withdrawl and get my online banking activated again.

Complaint narrative:
Onemain XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, IN XXXX Acct # XXXX and Onemain Financial XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX are both Subsidiaries of XXXX. I had a loan with Onemain Financial opened in XXXX that is now charged off. The problem is that this one loan is being reported to all 3 credit bureaus : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX  twice.Once by Onemain and once by Onemain Financial. I have disputed this error many times and just recent as today XX/XX/XXXX I received the results of my dispute and this is still not corrected. I called XXXX today and they called Onemain while I was on the phone waiting and was told that since Onemain Financial sold the loan to Onemain and they are two seperate entities that both charge offs will have to stay on my credit report. I had one loan  with Onemain Financial and if they sold the loan to Onemain then one of these two entities will have to stop reporting. Both  entities are reporting the same loan and appears to be two seperate charge offs on my credit report for one loan and this has caused me to have lower score than I should. This is a violation of the The Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am disturbed that the Credit Bureaus Experian and XXXX  continue to list the bankruptcy that was Voluntarily discharged on XXXX XXXX, 2017 as confirmed in my credit profile. It is their policy to keep reporting bankruptcies that are adjudicated for ten years, but the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681c, mentions nothing about dismissals or fillings. The Law clearly states from the " date of adjudication '' or " date of order for relief. '' Any case, whether civil or otherwise, the bankruptcy no longer exists in the eyes of the law once dismissed, and never adjudicated. This is nonexistent information that should not be kept as public information. I am requesting that the Bankruptcy information is deleted from my Credit Reports and I request that a updated copy of my reports to be sent to me when the action is complete. I would appreciate a response on this matter within 14 calendar days.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a home improvement loan over the phone through XXXX XXXX at 9 % in XX/XX/XXXX of 2015. Prior to that, I had a checking account and a credit card with them that was in good standing. Because of this the fund was deposited into my checking account within a few days. Several weeks later, I received the loan documents in the mail requesting my signature and notice the interest rate was 18 % instead of 9 %. Immediately, I contacted the bank regarding this matter and was told, they would review the original phone call and make the proper adjustment. After a month, I checked my account and notice no change was made to the loan. I called again and was told once again that they would look into the matter and make the proper adjustment. Since then, I have made several phone calls, a visit to my local branch to resolved the matter, and was told over and over that they would make the changes but it never happened. After waiting for a year, I disputed the loan by certified mail. I gave them 30 days to respond but they never did. I have sent three certified letters and they have not validated my account bearing my signature.They are still reporting my account as being late to the credit bureaus and have refused to mark the account as disputed. This have greatly impacted my credit score negatively.

Company: Community Loan Servicing, LLC (formerly known as Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC)
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX and Bayview Loan Servicing is the mortgage loan servicer on my mortgage loan ( Loan # XXXX ). It has been a couple of months that this company keep sending me letters about the home insurance certificate for my residence. I have asked my insurance company to send them ( email address is XXXXXXXXXXXX ) a copy of my home insurance certificate. A copy of that certificate has been sent to Bayview on multiple occasions ( On XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX ). However, I received another letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from this company claiming that they have illegally purchase insurance on my behalf and they threaten to deduct the exuberance cost of this illegal policy from my escrow account. 

I filed a complaint with CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX, and Bayview provided a false response to that complaint on XX/XX/XXXX. 

In its response letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, page 2 of 4, Bayview claims that it was not in the receipt of an updated insurance policy until the policy was received via email on XX/XX/XXXX, and was processed on XX/XX/XXXX. This is a pure lie, as I have an email evidence that the updated insurance policy was emailed to Bayview Insurance department ( i.e., XXXXXXXXXXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX, and again was forwarded to them on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I believe Bayview has been caught in a lie to a federal agency now. They received the proof of insurance that they were seeking on XX/XX/XXXX, but they refused to process it until XX/XX/XXXX. That is more that a month, during which time, Bayview was harassing me with threatening and distressful letters about purchasing lender imposed insurance policy. 

I want CFPB to ask Bayview about their recent lie in their response. I have attached a copy of the email that was sent by my insurance agent to Bayview on XX/XX/XXXX. In that email, the certificate of insurance was sent to Bayview, but now Bayview claims it did not receive the certificate of insurance until XX/XX/XXXX, which is a big lie.

Company: Midwest Recovery Systems
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Midwest Recovery Systems appeared on my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX and I reached out to them via email on XX/XX/XXXXto dispute the validity of this account. I had not taken but any payday loans in the last four years and also knew that I had dealt with some companies who were not abiding by CA law. I forwarded the Desist and Refrain Order from the California Dept of Business Oversight showing that any payday loans issued to residents in CA were null and void. They have yet to acknowledge any of my emails ( followups sent on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX) so I called. A call center rep said that that order had no bearing on their collection since their client, XXXX XXXX, had purchased the debt. My argument was the original debt was made null and void so their collection was invalid. Nothing came of that call and I ended. I reached out to the California Dept of Business Oversight and they forwarded my request to your oce. All I am asking is for this to be removed from credit reports. XXXX has removed it and it is under investigation with XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a fresh alert that it had been reported to XXXX which I have since challenged. I thought this had been previously reported to the CFPB but when I checkeed for status, it does not send me login information.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed a certified letter requesting debt validation. It is currently in route and is attached to this complaint.
