Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the {$300.00} sign-up bonus offer that was promised to me upon opening a new Wells Fargo consumer checking account in XX/XX/XXXX. My account number is [ Your Account Number ]. 

When I opened my account in XX/XX/XXXX, I was assured by Wells Fargo representatives that I would receive a {$300.00} sign-up bonus after meeting the necessary criteria. I called Wells Fargo in XX/XX/XXXX to inquire about the timeline for receiving this bonus and was informed by a representative that I was indeed eligible for the bonus and would receive it in XX/XX/XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I called again to check the status of the bonus, only to be told that I was ineligible because I supposedly have an existing account with Wells Fargo. The last time I held an account with Wells Fargo was in XX/XX/XXXX, well over the XXXX eligibility period outlined in your terms. 

Here are the relevant terms of the bonus offer : You are not eligible for this offer if : You are a current primary owner of a Wells Fargo consumer checking account. 
You have received a bonus for opening a Wells Fargo consumer checking account within the past XXXX XXXX. 
You are a XXXX XXXX XXXX 
Based on these terms, I should be eligible for the bonus as : I am not a current primary owner of a Wells Fargo consumer checking account ( my last account was closed in XX/XX/XXXX ). 
I have not received any bonus for opening a Wells Fargo consumer checking account within the past XXXX XXXX 
Although I am a former XXXX XXXX XXXX, my employment ended in XX/XX/XXXX, and your terms only disqualify current employees from receiving the bonus. 
I have also met the requirement of receiving a total of {$1000.00} or more in qualifying electronic deposits to my new checking account within the XXXX qualification period. 

Given that I have adhered to all the terms and conditions of the promotion, I am entitled to receive the {$300.00} sign-up bonus. I am highly disappointed with the misinformation and inconsistent communication provided by Wells Fargo XXXX, which has led to this unfortunate situation. 

I kindly request that you investigate this matter promptly and credit the {$300.00} sign-up bonus to my account. Should this issue not be resolved to my satisfaction, I will consider escalating my complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and other relevant regulatory bodies. 

I look forward to your prompt response and resolution to this matter.
