Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
American Express charged a renewal fee on a card that had no fee initially. I was not informed of this {$150.00} fee. In calling to rectify this and cancel the card the agent requires you to listen to him read extensive documentation. After XXXX minutes of this I agreed to switch the balance to a no fee card under duress just to get off the call so I could go to work. He assured me the XXXX fee was cancelled. 
I have never received the new card and yet noticed a {$1.00} fee as a balance on the new card online. In calling AMex I was again put through the hoops of being read to by the agent useless information. They claimed that fee was necessary due to transferring the card balance within their own system. I had to threaten complaints and demand a supervisor remove the fee. After some time on hold this was done and the card was cancelled. 
Consumers like me are being defrauded by Amex with the extreme duress required to cancel a card. This should be available online with no agent involvement. 
The hidden fee charged to me for transferring the balance is also usurious and should be illegal.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting a reinvestigation into multiple items appearing on my credit report, as they are either fraudulent or inaccurately reported. Several accounts listed are not mine. I did not authorize, open, or benefit from them. These items appear to be fraudulent, and I have not received any disclosures, billing statements, or signed agreements as required under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) and the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ). Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611, I request a detailed reinvestigation and disclosure of the verification process, including the identity of the furnisher. 

Additionally, an active account is being reported with a late payment status, which is factually incorrect. I have made timely payments, and this inaccurate reporting violates FCRA 623 and the DoddFrank Acts prohibition against deceptive practices. This negative reporting misrepresents my creditworthiness and causes substantial harm. 

I request a manual, factual-based reinvestigation, not an automated XXXX response. Under FCRA and CFPB guidelines, furnishers and credit bureaus are required to conduct a reasonable investigation and correct or delete inaccurate information. I expect updated reporting and full compliance with the legal timeframes outlined in FCRA.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was contacted by XXXX XXXX from BoAs Regulatory Complaints Department, who confirmed she was assigned as my Resolution Specialist and would follow up within XXXX hours. Since then, I have left XXXX voicemails ( XX/XX/year>, XXXX, and XXXX ) and received no response. 

I also received a written denial letter that completely ignored the appeal evidence I submittedincluding a police report, XXXX written confirmation of fraud, and annotated screenshots. 

BoA initially denied the claim after just XXXX  dayswell before the XXXX investigation windowand approved another claim for the same scam, showing clear inconsistency. 

I filed XXXX separate claims involving the exact same scam, using the same scammer, method, and documentation. The only difference was the dollar amount. For the smaller claim ( {$150.00} ), Bank of America issued temporary credit. For the larger claim ( {$600.00} ), they denied it outright. 
This contradiction is difficult to understand -if the evidence was strong enough to justify provisional reimbursement in XXXX case, why was it not strong enough in the other? It gives the impression that the larger claim was denied based on dollar amount not merit or facts. 

Additionally, Bank of America internally escalated this case to XXXX XXXX XXXX and the local sheriff 's department, acknowledging that they themselves suspected potential financial exploitation. This reinforces that the situation was serious and warranted full consideration-but instead of a full review, they issued a denial. 




My claim status was also changed from completed back to researching, which contradicts their position that the denial is final. 

faxed a full written appeal with all supporting documentation-including the XXXX scam confirmation and annotated screenshots-on XX/XX/XXXX. Bank of America did not acknowledge the appeal or contact me until after I filed this CFPB complaint. 
This reinforces the concern that they were not taking my appeal seriously until regulatory pressure was applied. 

This is a clear pattern of mishandling, regulatory non-compliance, and neglect at the executive escalation level. Please escalate this complaint and assist in obtaining a proper resolution.
