Issue: Managing an account — Problem making or receiving payments
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
This is in regard to a XXXX transaction. I sent {$2500.00} to a " XXXX '' via XXXX on XX/XX/2022. As soon as I realized the mistake, I called BoA and was told by the agent I spoke with that they were able to reverse the transaction successfully, and that the money would be available in my account the next day, XXXX  XX/XX/2022. 

On XXXX, I saw that the money was still not available so I called again and was told not to worry that the money will surely be available on XXXX  the XXXX, as these transactions do not usually post on week ends. 

On XXXX  the money was still not available so i called again and asked to speak with a supervisor. I was still being told by another agent that it looked like the money would be back in my account the next day, on XX/XX/XXXX! On XXXX, I was finally able to speak with someone that handles XXXX transactions and was told I had been given the wrong information and that I would need to file a claim, which I did. I was told that the claim would take 10 business days but could take up to 45. I called several times during the 10 business days period, trying to figure out if there was any progress. On the 8th business, the agent I spoke with told me that they couldn't see any notes on this claim and it wasn't clear if the other bank had been reached yet.

On the 11th business day, I received the attached letter stating that " BoA isn't able to honor my claim because the transfer posted to the requested account according to the instructions provided ''. The letter does not state whether there was any attempt to contact the other bank at all. 

I'm also unsure if an actual investigation was done and confused as to why I was told by several agents that the {$2500.00} would be back in my account the next days. These calls are recorded so I'm sure there would be no issue finding the recordings. 

I'm not sure what my account history or details has to do with this XXXX claim, as stated in this letter. 
I would like to know the details on the said investigation that was supposedly completed, as this letter does not give any of that information. 
Thank you!

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
It appears that my credit/my file/my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ), I found that under section 605b ( a ) Equifax shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. 

The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) Please block/remove this account. 

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date Opened XX/XX/2015 XXXX {$440.00}. 

If you feel there is a possibility this account belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney.

Company: AMERISAVE MORTGAGE CORPORATION
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I received a call from a representative that works for amerisave on XX/XX/XXXX. The representative assured me that he could lock in a rate and beat any rate I was offered. I paid {$500.00} for a rate lock and received it in my email a few days later showing I was approved for a loan for {$190000.00} at a locked interest rate of 4.375 %. The letter showed that I was eligible for this rate lock until XX/XX/2022. This morning I was informed that they couldnt honor their rate lock and that my interest rate would be going up 1 % to 5.375 % even though Im still in my rate lock period. The letter also states that I would be guaranteed a {$1500.00} payment if the loan failed to close. Well, it didnt close because my rate was changed on me and they refused to fund my loan at the agreed upon rate but was told that I would not be receiving this {$1500.00} payment. This lender also ran my credit without my permission on XX/XX/2022. This company is using very deceitful practices with their certified preapproval letters and their rate lock system.

State: MS

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, I was alerted that a medical collection for {$150.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX that I had no knowledge of was reported on all three credit bureaus. I immediately filed disputes with all bureaus requesting the removal as I had never received any documentation/statement/bill from creditor recently or in the past. On XXXX XXXX, after investigation by the bureaus, XXXX XXXX XXXX removed the collections from their reports as being unfounded. However on XX/XX/2022, Equifax reported that the collection will remain on their credit report for me. I find it very unlikely that two of the three bureaus deem the collections as invalid, but Equifax is unable to remove the collections. I have requested verification from the credit bureau and the creditor for validation of the collection, but I am unable to receive a response. 

How is this legal to disrupt someone's life because a creditor wants to extort money out of consumers for their deceptive practices without providing evidence? The burden of proof falls on the consumer although they have no knowledge or never utilized their services.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The company response does not meet requirements of validation .The dates being reported on credit report, address listed in response letter as their proof of debt notice is not my address and does not belong to me and or listed on or ever been used on my accounts listed on my credit report. Upon further investigation that is a childhood address of over XXXXyrs ago at a age not old enough to even obtain credit at such time .which proves Portfolio Recovery did not obtain my information from a creditor and participated in stolen identity /info and breached rights of privacy by searching public information and violated FDCPA Laws! Although company is stating they have purchased the account, that litigates and agreement between them and the third party not me and Portfolio Recovery. Theres no contract nor agreement and I am not applicable by law to make any payments to them as I have no knowledge of the account and am positive of no contract existing between me and Portfolio Recovery nor how they have violated my right to privacy by obtaining my information by way of identity theft. Furthermore because they do not have a correct address for me Portfolio Recovery has violated law by not sending a debt validation notice amongst other violations that total XXXX a piece Portfolio Recovery now legally owes me more than the alleged debt by way of damages that were caused due to their negligence.So if this is not removed from my credit report at once I will proceed further legal action of my own!
