Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card — Sent card you never applied for
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Today I logged into my Bank of America online account and noticed that I had an XXXX XXXX credit card was listed as an active account in my portfolio. I also noticed that there was a past due balance of {$90.00}. 

I went into this account and saw that it was opened some time in XXXX, 2022. I called Bank of America to ask about why this was showing up in my list of accounts and the person I spoke to said I needed to talk to another department. He transferred me but I was on hold for 30 minutes and no one came to the line so I hung up, not able to resolve this serious matter. 

Bank of America had fraudulently opened this card without my knowledge or consent and then made an unauthorized charge to the card and I had no idea either transaction had taken place. I think there is a legal and moral issue in play here I'm hoping someone takes this matter seriously enough to do something about it.
