Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I received a fraud alert email from my bank Truist XXXX XXXX XXXX, 2024 and was instructed to call XXXX to confirm a transaction in the amount of {$540.00} that was made at XXXX in XXXXXXXX XXXX 


I called the number and told the agent to block the transaction since I did not make that transaction and I'm currently in XXXXXXXX XXXX and I've never been to XXXX I was told by the agent that they blocked the {$540.00} transaction but there was another pending transaction in the amount of {$540.00} also made in XXXXXXXX XXXX I checked my Truist debit account online, and saw the XXXX transactions I did not make, so I told the agent to also block the pending {$540.00} transaction and lock my debit card as well. 


The customer service told me I will receive a new debit card but will need to wait for the {$540.00} transaction to be posted first before I can dispute the amount so I followed her advice. The amount was posted on XXXX XXXX, 2024 and I logged in to Truist debit account online on XX/XX/XXXX to dispute the amount with case XXXX XXXXXXXX. 


I did not get a reply so on XXXX XXXX, 2024, I called the XXXX fraud number of my bank Truist because it was taking so long to get my money back to my account. They denied my dispute because they said there were XXXX other transactions last XX/XX/year> in the amount of {$45.00} and {$30.00} made in the same location, XXXX in XXXXXXXX XXXX which were not disputed. I've never been to XXXXXXXX XXXX nor have I made those transactions and this was the first time I knew about those other transactions, and was not notified about them so I was not able to dispute them during that time. 


The XXXX told me to contact XXXX to dispute the transactions so I called XXXX customer service and was told they can't find the transaction in my account and told me to dispute the transactions with my bank, as well as file an Identity theft report to XXXX, fill out the online form for FTC, and get a police report since somebody is making transactions using my debit card. 


I again called Truist to refile the dispute and and denied it again. I provided additional like the online form from FTC, and the police report to support the dispute.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Product: Mortgage — Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue related to modification, forbearance, short sale, deed-in-lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
The representative refused to send me correspondence via email so I would have a record of what occurred. They had said in XXXX that all past due amounts during covid had been put on back end on a recorded line and to make regular payments. We started making payments in XX/XX/XXXX. Then in XX/XX/XXXX they sent a demand letter for XXXX payments they had said were deferred during covid. They demanded a lump sum payment. We filed a complaint with you and they lied about what occurred. We continued making mortgage payments on time and then in XX/XX/XXXX they said they would not accept a payment as we were in foreclosure. we kept in contact with you thru XX/XX/XXXX in which you said they had answered your questions. In XX/XX/XXXX they served us with foreclosure documents. We had a court date and I wrote a letter to the judge explaining they were in Violation of the XXXX XXXX by demanding a lump sum payment. After attending court I reached out to their reinstatement department and was given the attached letter, we made the payment and our mortgage was reinstated. 
They then started sending the mortgage documents with the late fees of over XXXX every month adding more each month. They charged us a XXXX monthly fee from XX/XX/XXXX until this month. They also sent negative information to all credit bureaus ruining our credit rating. My husband is XXXX and I collect social security. We are XXXX payment behind but that is it but they keep sending this statements showing this enormous late fee. The lawyer we spoke to said all amounts due for past payments etc would have been in the reinstatement letter. The reinstatement letter never mentioned those fees and he said they can not collect. We also feel that the damage they have done to our credit for the last XXXX years has been relentless predatory and has been enacted to damage our ability to due business at all with other companies and will impede our ability to get a XXXX XXXX if needed, a credit card or even the daily badgering of their XXXX who are trying to collect late fees that should never have been put against us. Their representatives are crass, unprofessional, tell untruths even in written documents and when I asked for them to pull the recorded calls they mysteriously disappeared. This is a company that needs to be fully audited for their mortgage and Heloc loans as if they are trying to scam us they are doing it to other citizens of our country as well.
