Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX Truist removed XXXX and XXXX from my escrow account claiming delinquent tax bills. That same day I contacted customer service on a recorded call. I explained the bills were up to date and needed to dispute them. I was informed by the female representative to pay the extra fees to keep my account up to date and once the dispute was resolved the fees paid would be refunded. This issue was resolved XX/XX/XXXX with Truist acknowledging that I wasnt responsible for the bill, but Truist have not refunded the fees that I had to pay that were no fault of my own. The XXXX and XXXX were refunded to the escrow account, I should also be refunded as I was informed on the recorded call. Im so disgusted with Truist bank and realized getting a mortgage with this company is the worst decision I ever made. At this point, I would like my fees refunded for the tax bills that I was charged and my mortgage transferred to a trustworthy company. I will not pay another cent on the mortgage with Truist bank until all my fees for the delinquent debt that I did not owe are refunded. If Truist needs to contact me, DO NOT CALL ME, contact via the email address that is on my account. Truist bank is a whole scam operation that seeks to drain money from unsuspecting clients, I have read many reviews that are very similar to the issue I am currently having with Truist bank.

XXXX XXXX XXXX has since disappeared and is currently being sued by the Rhode Island Attorney General for deceptive and unfair trade practices. Despite this, XXXXConcord continues to demand payments.

This is an attempt to collect on a fraudulent loan tied to deceptive practices. I request that XXXX/Concord : 1. Pause all collections and negative credit reporting while this case is under investigation. 2. Mark my account as in dispute.

3. Cooperate with the Rhode Island Attorney Generals Consumer Protection Unit in resolving this matter.

The reported late payments and charge-off accounts are inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable. The furnishers have failed to provide original, documented proof that these alleged delinquencies occurred. Without legally required validation, continued reporting of this negative information is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).
