Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, at approximately XXXX XXXX, I made a cash deposit of {$7000.00} at a Bank of America ATM ( ATM ID : XXXX ). Upon inserting the cash into the ATM, the machine processed the transaction but displayed an error and did not credit my account. Since it was a holiday, the bank was closed. I immediately contacted the XXXX XXXX XXXX who advised me to contact the bank. 
On XX/XX/year>, I visited the branch first thing in the morning to report the incident. The branch staff confirmed they had found {$7000.00} excess cash during their count and had reported it. They assured me the credit would be applied to my account either the same day or the next day. 
After filing a claim, I was then told it would take 2 business days for the credit. On Friday, XX/XX/year>, I met with the branch manager who said I should receive the credit the next day. However, when I called Bank of America today, they claimed they need 10 business days for research, despite having already located and confirmed the excess {$7000.00} in the ATM. 
This situation is particularly concerning because : The bank has confirmed finding the exact amount ( {$7000.00} ) in excess cash Multiple bank representatives gave different timeframes for resolving the issue The bank is now claiming a 10-day research period despite having already located the funds I have been without access to my {$7000.00} for nearly 7 days I am requesting immediate credit of the {$7000.00} to my account, as the bank has already verified the excess cash matches my deposit amount. This extended delay in crediting confirmed funds appears to violate banking regulations regarding timely resolution of ATM errors.

Product: Mortgage — Manufactured home loan
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: LAKE MICHIGAN CREDIT UNION
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I got a mortgage on a manufactured home on XX/XX/XXXX. Everything was fine. The bank signed a letter from my insurance company stating that they acknowledged that I did not have wind insurance. Fast forward to XXXX. The bank forcibly put wind insurance on the home ( they took the $ out of the escrow account ). I complained and it was refunded. They have now taken {$2300.00} in XXXX for wind. They also are stating this policy started in XXXX ( not possible - the other policy was supposedly in effect then ). I do not want this wind policy and should not be forced to get it since they signed off in the beginning. We were hit by XXXX and had over {$100000.00} of damage which we paid out in cash to fix. I do not want this insurance and how can they say it started in XXXX ( the previous policy was only {$640.00} and supposedly started in XXXX ). This is a total scam. I am way ahead in payments and do not want this taken from my account

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I purchased furniture At XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX on XX/XX/year>. A promotion for 24 months of interest free financing was part of this transaction. The promotional balance for this purchase was {$2800.00}. 
Another purchase at XXXXXXXX XXXX  was made on XX/XX/year>. A promotion for 12 months of interest free financing was part of this transaction. The promotional balance for this purchase was {$1300.00}. 
This promotion was financed by Synchrony Bank. The statement is attached. 
The first statement was accessed on-line to determine the due date for the payment and the amount. In reviewing the statement, ONLY the Total Minimum Payment Due ( {$150.00} ) is listed. There is no indication anywhere on the statement of the amount due to keep the terms of the interest free financing in place.

Clearly, it is the intent of the bank for the purchaser to make the minimum payment, thereby activating the 34.99 % interest immediately on the unpaid balance. I consider this practice to be deceitful and predatory - particularly on consumer who need the interest free terms and those who may not be financially astute to the point where they would inquire regarding the amount due to keep the promotional terms in place. If this practice is legal- it shouldn't be. It is a shameful practice and it should be eliminated.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Today I contacted XXXX and spoke to the fraud department regarding the late payment status for Bridgecrest yet again after disputing this inaccuracy several times of a late payment from XXXX. Ive asked that it be removed after reinvestigation. Spoke to XXXX who was very nasty and repeatedly told me to reach out to the merchant when Ive explained I gave in the past several times. I then proceeded to ask for a copy of the investigation results and she refused on a recorded line and told me I would have to subpoena them. This violates my consumer rights. Your Right to Documentation FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) requires the credit bureau to provide you with a summary of the results of the reinvestigation, including the details of the furnishers response. 

While the law requires the bureau to summarize the furnishers response, it does not mandate the credit bureau to share the exact documents provided by the furnisher unless requested. 2.Notification Timeline : Once the reinvestigation is completed, the credit bureau must notify you of the results within 5 business days.

This notification must include : Whether the information was verified, corrected, or deleted.

A summary of what the furnisher provided to verify the information. 

Please keep in mind this recent dispute was filed back on XXXX, XXXX Ive not yet been notified of any results, or been provided any mail from the bureaus explaining the furnisher ( Bridgecrest ) on this alleged late payment status & past due payment from XX/XX/XXXX. I requested today XX/XX/XXXX to have what the results were from the furnisher and was told to seek a subpoena to get the information. This totally violates my FCRA consumer rights listed above. I also have XXXX recorded saying this. I will attach this below. Im asking that they delete and remove the late payment status and past due status that is reporting inaccurately immediately. Please see attached audio as evidence.
