Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Madam/Sir, Hi, In XXXX XXXX, I sent {$300.00} CAD to Mr. XXXX XXXX XXXX [ I forwarded the verification ], but this amount was sent to another person, whose name is XXXX XXXX [ You can find the picture in the attachment. ] I have no idea who he is, and how this amount sent to him?! So it shouldn't be my fault because I did not use any e-Mail addresses. I just used Mr. XXXX 's phone number in order to send money. Money was sent to another person, whom I don't know, and PayPal is responsible about this problem. That person might be PayPal user [ I even sent him an e-Mail, but he did not respond me ], so you can find him by transition ID or his information in your data bank. Please help me to refund money. It's {$250.00} and I can not afford to send it again because of the mistake I never made. 

Thank you. 
Best, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Managing an account — Fee problem
Company: AMERICA FIRST FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
They are upgrading free accounts without consent to a paid account service. Though the services provided may be nice we can not opt out without calling or visit a bank.

Issue 1 - no consent. They have notified but opt in automatically is not okay.

Issue 2 - their response on social media is forcing it down our throats and telling us to like it.

Issue 3 - opt out process is intentionally inconvenient and a dark pattern that is intended to discourage people from changing. This is a practice used by unscrupulous companies and reduces my trust in general with the company drastically. 

Issue 4 - two month " free trial '' is code for " you will forget about this in a while and not realize you are paying for it nor are you using the service. '' If everyone used this service to full extent they could not afford to provide it. This service is intended to be used minimally and they are relying on unsavory company tactics to get more money from their customers. Again another blow to the trust of the customers.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint to request the removal of a negative account that Wells Fargo is reporting on my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit report. The account number reported on my credit report is XXXX. I called Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX, to discuss this account. I was told by the customer service representative that I could settle the account for {$200.00}. I asked him if the account would then be reflected as paid, and all negative entries would be removed from my credit report. He said not unless I paid the balance in full. I told him it was critically important that all negative information be removed from my credit report, and I agreed to pay the full balance of {$400.00}. I have attached a copy of the receipt from my bank to this letter. It has now been over one year since my payment, and Wells Fargo is still reporting negative information on my credit report. This account was first reported to the credit bureau on XX/XX/XXXX. I have sent letters to Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and received no response or resolution. I am requesting that Wells Fargo delete this account from my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX  credit reports immediately.

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I have previously sent LVNV Funding and affiliates a request to validate this debt, for the following account number ( XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX via certified mail. Under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDPCA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt that you say I owe you per the FDPCA. I have given LVNV Funding 30 days to remedy this situation, which is not only a reasonable period but is also the maximum time request limit as indicated by the FDPCA/FRCA. I received an unsubstantiated response from LVNV Funding, which did not properly validate debt, although I did receive signed confirmation via certified mail from the United States Postal Service that my validation letters were received on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, however attempts to collect said debt are still being made by LVNV Funding without properly validating debt.

Since LVNV Funding is still reporting this account on my credit profile, LVNV Funding is now in violation of the FDPCA and are subject to fines of {$1000.00}, which I may collect from LVNV Funding by filing a claim in small claims court. I intend to follow through with said suit if I do not hear back from LVNV Funding within 10 days. LVNV Funding should also be aware that reporting such invalidated information to the major credit reporting bureaus may constitute as defamation of character, as the negative remarks on my credit profile prevent me from benefits associated with a good profile. I am sure that legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could present LVNV Funding with legal inconvenience with the FTC and other state and federal agencies.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Please refer my previous complaint # XXXX. 
It was : -- -- -- -- - I had opened a Checking account with BB & T last month. I have setup the direct deposit also. I have no idea why BB & T has blocked my online access? As during COVID-19 me and my spouse is working remotely ( from home ) as well as helping the kids during their online schooling. It seems BB & T called and my spouse picked up up the call - but he was in a meeting and I was also in the meeting. I tried to call back BB & T at XXXX but there is so many confusing menus and no way to reach out a human being. Worse thing - during this pandemic - this bank is giving tough time to it's customers - by blocking their online access for no good reasons. Moreover My XXXX payment request is also blocked or stopped. I want full access to my BB & T and freedom to use my account - as end of the this is my money and I need to have the access during this testing times. 
-- -- -- -- -- -- I am not satisfied with the response of BB & T after CFPB intervention. 
My access is blocked. 
I tried calling them but it's a long wait and confusing menu. 
Ideally they should have provided the direct number to reach out to them. 
With my full time job, preexisting conditions during pandemic - I can not think of going to their branch and risk my life. 

So i would l like my account to be closed and all the money being sent to me by check or money order. 
I just don't want to deal with this bank anymore.

Complaint narrative:
My credit union ( America First ) has started offering a premium checking account for an additional {$6.00} per month. 

Rather than allowing customers to opt into the premium checking, they automatically put everyone into the premium checking and you have to call to opt out of the plan or get charged monthly. This is REALLY shady!!
