Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2022 To Whom It May Concern : RE : Dispute with BMO Harris Bank XXXX name is XXXX XXXX XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX, I transferred $ XXXX from my account at XXXX XXXX XXXX to my beneficiary, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) at BMO Harris Bank, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IN XXXX. They have held my funds for nearly a month. I have asked my credit union to have BMO Harris Bank to return the funds to my account. This is serious because the money was for family support. The purpose of the funds was to help a family member whose health and business was affected by Covid. 

It should be noted that on the original wire transfer the name of the beneficiary was misspelled and that should have triggered an immediate return of my funds. Bank protocol should have returned my money to me the same day since the beneficiarys name was incorrect. Instead, BMO Harris Bank has held my funds for nearly a month with no one contacting me for a reason. 

My credit union reached out to BMO Harris Bank numerous times and after many attempts they responded with reference # XXXX that the funds were credited to the beneficiarys account. When I contacted the beneficiary, he told me that the funds are in his account but the bank has put his account on hold so he cant transfer my funds. Nobody at the BMO Harris Bank has explained why his account is on hold. This puts my {$70000.00} in jeopardy. I need help! You should note that I have filed complaints with the FDIC, Consumer Financial Protection and Department of Financial Protection. This is a serious situation where BMO Harris is using my funds for a full month for an internal problem they are having with the beneficiary and is unfair to me. This needs to be resolved immediately. XXXX XXXX XXXX has been notified of this situation to intervene immediately to prevent an intense investigation by the FDIC. 

I can be reached at XXXX or XXXX. My address is : XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I have applied for a new mortgage. XXXX Credit report indicated I was sent to collections for a {$100.00} bill from XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, NC. I have statement from manager of this organization that this account was PAID in FULL and in GOOD STANDING. Report is on my account as ALDOUS XXXX XXXXXXXX assured me he contacted their legal team and they would correct the issue. The only thing their legal team did was to indicate the account was CLOSED. They did not remove the faulty COLLECTIONS report. This has led to a Lowe credit score which led to a higher interest rate which over the course of the loan will cost me tens of thousands of dollars. XXXX directed me to contact you. 
The following is copied from the email from the manager of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX To : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, Thank you for reaching out. I'm showing you had a family add-on 15 month PAID IN FULL membership back in XX/XX/XXXX. It looks like it rolled to a month-to-month renewal afterwards. I reached out the our billing services company and let them know to remove you from collections in good standing. Let me know if you have any other questions. 
Thank you!

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
End of XXXX I have made a payment to Barclays XXXX for {$390.00} using my bill pay with an outside bank. Since the payment appeared to meet the deadline I have called Barclays and I was informed that the payment was never received. Subsequently I then paid the whole amount of the statement plus some pending activities over the phone at around {$1200.00}. I was also advised to put a stop payment on the missing check which I did. However the company informed me that the payment was actually processed despite being told that the payment was never received resulting in {$39.00} payment denied charge. On XX/XX/29 I have made 3 phone calls with the following results : Call # 1, the CSR couldn't locate the charge stating that it doesn't exist. When I questioned whether she was properly trained to even look up the account I was put on a very long hold to verify the info and then hang up on. 
Call # 2, I called the call center and after a long hold transferred to the supervisor, XXXX. After the verification, the call was subsequently disconnected by the supervisor without warning or cause. 
Call # 3, I finally called and after undergoing a verification process transferred to the supervisor XXXX. XXXX took many notes on the account and at the end informed that that regardless if there was a " miscommunication or not '' he doesn't have an authority to remove the {$39.00} charge. 

It is obvious that Barclays XXXX is doing business this way to accrue unnecessary fees. Not only after many problems I was finally sent a paper bill which I requested for weeks, and now the company is misleading the consumers on whether the payment has been received on not. The transaction log shows that by the time I was told the payment was not received it actually was received but not processed. That's the reason I opted to pay in full while putting a stop payment on the check that should have been processed to begin with.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021, CREDIT COLLECTION SERV added a derogatory mark on my credit report per XXXX. Upon further research, this account was transferred/sold, and I am no longer responsible for the account. The debtor 's creditor did not verify this collection. Also, there was NO written form of communication, contract, or writing signature for this accused debt at all. A bill without a writing signature does not validate the debt, and anybody can send a bill and say it's mine. According to the FCRA, CREDIT COLLECTION SERV has violated my rights as a consumer, and I'm requesting legal action to remove this account immediately.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
This is to get resolved on transferring my available funds in my savings acct. at Goldmans Sacks Bank USA, website by marcus.com. I have my this savings acct. for more than 10 years. 

For last 3~4 weeks, I tried to do online transfer of my available money at my sav. acct in Goldmans Sacks Bank USA, website by marcus.com, to other financial institutes with better saving rate or investment options due to ongoing higher inflation. 

I was able to log in my acct. at marcus.com each time, but keep getting the error mesg. 'website has technical problem, come back later ', my online transfer can't go through. 
I called their customer support at XXXX yesterday to resolve the freeze of my acct. The 1st representative verified my identity by verifying my secret pass code, I asked the representative to un-freeze my acct and let me transfer my available money in this acct. She refused and instead transfer me to another representative. The 2nd representative spent ~ one hour on the phone, making excuse of verifying my identity., asking me my family infor., instead asking me the standard security questions, as all other banks do, my current address, places I had lived, etc. At the end, the 2nd representative refused to un-freeze my acct. And told me I need to send additional proof to them. 

This is the worst nightmare as a bank customer I ever have. I have this acct for more than 10 years and it worked ok until~ 4 weeks ago to transfer in and out my available money in my acct. Also, other smaller banks online offering better saving rate usually help me over the phone to transfer my money in a few minutes. 

Also, I received Transfer Failure Notice from my other local bank, XXXX, here, shown below : ' On XX/XX/2022, you initiated deposit verification for your account : Goldman Sachs Bank USA, XXXX, Savings # # # # # # # # '

Complaint narrative:
Based on The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681, which is U.S. Federal Government legislation enacted to promote the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies., Experian Credit Reporting Agency is suppose to report my credit in fair manner. 
Every two months Experian drops my credit score by XXXX XXXX  with absolutely no reason. 
Since I expressed my objection numerous times, I have no choice but to look for help somewhere else. 
Experian will not stop stop this practice on its own and refuses to provide any explanation of the situation. 
After my written inquiry Experian always replies that it can't identify me and asks me to mail bunch of documents, which of course, would compromise the safety of my data. It will not provide me any answers anyway. After Experian drops my score by XXXX XXXX I receive offers to increase my score by subscribing PAID service from Experian. This is extortion and should be considered criminal action. I am attaching the record of credit scores decreases as well as Experian offer to improve my score for cash. Experian lists 6 possible reasond for a credit score to drop, none applies to me.
