The details of my complaint are as follows : Payment Instruments Submitted : XX/XX/2023, I sent a negotiable instrument for payment to Navy Federal Credit Union in full compliance with legal tender guidelines. The instrument was restrictively endorsed to the company, accompanied by specific processing instructions as prescribed by XXXX CFR XXXX. These instruments were sent via registered mail with tracking numbers XXXX XXXX XXXX Company 's Response and Actions : Regrettably, Navy Federal Credit Union. has neither applied the payments to the account nor returned the negotiable instruments, both of which are mandated by law. In addition, despite my attempts to address this matter, the company has continued to contact me for payment, which is both unwarranted and unsettling. 
Adverse Action on Consumer Credit : Adding to my concerns, Navy Federal Credit Union has taken adverse action against my consumer credit, which, to the best of my knowledge of applicable laws and regulations, they XXXX not have the authority to do. 
XXXX Title XXXX Violation : In accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code, Title XXXX, the non-application of payment in a timely manner constitutes a breach of contract.

Such actions, if proven true, raise significant concerns about the company 's ethical conduct and compliance with federal regulations and securities laws. 
Given the gravity of this situation and the potential violations of consumer protection laws, federal regulations, and securities laws, I believe it is imperative that other relevant regulatory bodies be involved in investigating and addressing this matter. Specifically, the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( FINRA ), and Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) XXXX need to take action to ensure that consumer rights are safeguarded and any alleged misconduct is thoroughly examined. 

Despite my attempts to communicate with Navy Federal Credit Union and my requests for the application of payment or the return of the instruments, the company has not responded or addressed this matter as of the date of this complaint. 

I respectfully request that the CFPB initiates a comprehensive investigation into this matter involving Navy Federal Credit Union to determine whether the company has violated any federal regulations, consumer protection laws, or securities laws. Additionally, I urge the CFPB to collaborate with the aforementioned regulatory bodies, including the FTC, SEC, XXXX, and IRS, to ensure a thorough examination of this matter.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
