Complaint narrative:
Hello I have filed this complaint before but no response .I have been calling Bank Of amercia for over two weeks now and not one person has been able to help they just connect me to different people. A few times they even acknowledge there an issue on the report but say we dont have access and cant do anything. Nobody has access to correct a report which is inaccurate Who Can help? I am in a bad situation here because of this report.BoA claims account was closed due to fraud which is inaccurate it was closed because of a negative balance and i paid it off in full why are reporting it as fraud? As a consumer you are diminishing my rights and causing me many issues Resolve this right away This is not right I have filed a complain before. Been contacting Bank Of America for over two weeks. As explained to them I was overseas for a one month trip but unfortunately due to Covid returned after 3 months. Called Bank of America and they notified me my balance was negative ( {$280.00} ) .I paid off the amount in full and confirmed with the banker on a recorded line that all is good, nothing on file and nothing will be reported, which the banker confirmed and even told me he can connect me to another person and open a bank account. At the time I did not need one and moved on.3 weeks ago I tried to open an account and was told there is a report on XXXX XXXX .I requested the report and in it Bank of America has put a remark that this account was charged off and due to fraudulent activity it was closed. Called Bank of America over 10 times, they just connect me to different departments and in some cases i have dealt with very rude and unprofessional people specifically there fraud prevention team. The fraud team tell me I have balance due which I absolutely do not and on the file attached I even got verification from Bank of America. The collections team says your balance is zero but the fraud team has to remove the report from XXXX XXXX. Again the fraud team simply says no and you have to wait for 5 years for it to be automatically removed. ( What are they thinking ) I am professional who works in the medical device industry and my salary is in the mid six digits why would I commit fraud for {$280.00} WHY? Then they tell me I must sent proof, Proof of what? That I didn't commit fraud? You are accusing me of that you send me proof? This is my last follow up I have consulted my lawyer and will follow up with a lawsuit by next month if not resolved. Currently I can not open a business account due to this issue and loosing money and its nota small amount Please follow up right away and remove all reports from XXXX XXXX or anywhere else you are reporting this inaccurate information LETTER ATTACHED
