Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020 I deposited my payroll check into my US bank checking account only to find out the next day there was a seven day hold placed on it. Every single time I attempted to deposit a paycheck into my US Bank checking account there has been a seven day hold on my entire paycheck. No partial availability of funds. This has lead to my rent being late for XXXX and previous months when I deposited my paycheck and a hold has been placed upon it. 
US Bank branches are closed to the public due to Covid-19 and I am unable to contact a banker to discuss this matter. My employer requires a voided check to sign up for direct deposit and I am unable to obtain a voided check because I do not order checks and I am unable to meet with a banker or branch manager due to the lobbies being closed due to Covid-19. 
This is not the only paycheck that was placed on a seven day hold. Every single paycheck I have had since I opened my account in XXXX of 2020 has had a seven day hold placed upon it. 
On XX/XX/XXXX ( when this hold for my current paycheck expires ) I will be closing this account and not depositing another dime into this checking account.

State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My adult daughter purchase some sofas back in XXXX From a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  '. She was going through a tough patch and like any mother, I decided to help her by taking one of her bills off her hands. 

She was a single mother with XXXX babies. I called the company and told them to charge my account monthly. they set it up over the phone, every month they took {$180.00} until they final payment on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I thought I was done, but according to the secretary whom I only spoke to on the phone, I was told I had to make 3 more payment of {$180.00} for the buyout of {$560.00}. I paid them and never heard back from them again. Mind you, they have my telephone and work number which has never changed. I never got a letter, ever because like I said, the contract was my daughters who lives at a different address. 

Now 6 years later I get a letter from a Rozlin Financial Group saying I purchased sofas and never made any payments {$1900.00}!! I called to tell them they was some mistake, I didn't know any Rozlin Financial Group, Then they said it was a leasing company and they bought the debt. First they said there was one payment missing in XXXX of XXXX. They side if i could show I made that payment they will delete what was put on my credit, I got my bank records and showed them they charged my card. then they came with another excuse, I realized they were just fishing, anything to get me to fork over more money to these scammers!!! 

The worst part is they are making it seem like I opened and account in XXXX and never paid them. They are lying and saying I owe them {$1900.00} Now! They refuse to send me the original contract with my signature or printout of payment made and who made them. They said they done't have any of that information. Truth is they do not want to submit it because they know that contract was not mine! I don't know how to expose these scammers!!! 

I want to see the original contract with my signature!!!! Attached is what they sent, this is no contract, this is just a piece of paper they generated to say what ever they want!!

XX/XX/XXXX Equifax XXXX. XXXX  XXXX XXXX Ga XXXX RE :  Requesting a Method of Verification Letter Dear Sir/Maam : I recently received a response to a dispute ( see attached ) that I made under FCRA 611 ( a ) regarding an erroneous item on my credit report involving a transaction with. I was saddened to learn that you somehow verified the disputed item, electing to leave it on my report. 
I am absolutely certain that the item I disputed is incorrect and should be removed, so I am hereby exercising my rights under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) to request a complete description of all methods used to investigate my aforementioned dispute. 
I am very interested to learn how your investigator ( s ) arrived at this erroneous conclusion. I would like to see a complete list of all documents and correspondence with. Please include all names and contact information of employees that you spoke to at as part of this investigation. 
All previous letters and documents that I sent to you previously are once again attached along with this correspondence in order to help you process this request. 
I am asking for this verification because my credit score is important to me, and I believe it is being unjustly degraded as a result of this unfortunate error. I would therefore request that you please do not send me a template letter in response to this request. I am in the process of planning a legal case, so I need specific answers to the specific questions asked of you in this letter. 
I expect to receive a response within 15 days of receipt of this letter, or I will expect to see the item in question permanently expunged from my record. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I very much look forward to getting this resolved as soon as possible. 
Very Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ca XXXX

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Ca XXXX Experian XXXX. XXXX  XXXX XXXX Tx XXXX XXXX : Dispute Letter of date you sent in first or subsequent requests To Whom it May Concern, This letter is formal notice that you have failed to respond to my dispute letter of XX/XX/2020 I sent this letter registered mail and have enclosed a copy of the return receipt which you received XX/XX/XXXX. 

As you are well aware, federal law requires you to respond within 30 days. I understand that the CFPB is relaxing the accountability for the 30 day recepose requirement due to these uncertain times. HOW EVER THE LAW HAS NOT CHANGED. 
It has now been over that period since the receipt of my letter. As you are no doubt aware, failure to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are in serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and may be investigated by the FTC. Obviously, I am maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with you. 

I am aware that you may have misplaced my letters or have failed to respond to my letter because of an oversight due to the high volume of the requests you receive daily. If this is the case, I'm sure you'll want to handle this matter as soon as possible. For this purpose, I have included a copy of my original request, the dated receipt of your reception of the original letter and a copy of the proof verifying the incorrectness of the credit item you have mistakenly placed on my records.
