On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 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.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Bank of America via text chat within mobile app to ask why a balance transfer due XX/XX/XXXX was not being reduced. I was told that any payment made in excess of the minimum payment due is applied to the balance with the higher interest rate. There are XXXX balance transfer offers that I took advantage of. The first, due XX/XX/XXXX, was a 0 % balance transfer offer initiated XX/XX/XXXX for {$3000.00}. The second offer was 1.99 % at end of XXXX XXXX for {$4900.00}, due XX/XX/XXXX. I asked how I could request that the next payment received, which will be XX/XX/XXXX due my bill pay schedule, be applied in FULL to the amount due XX/XX/XXXX balance. The Rep said that to be fair and consistent with all customers they could not, and would not, apply my payment to the balance that is due XX/XX/XXXX. Further in order to pay off the XX/XX/XXXX balance of {$1900.00} I would need to pay the {$3000.00} balance due XX/XX/XXXX. For a total due of {$4900.00}, in less than 2 months. The credit card has always been paid every 2 weeks so has never been late, and all payments have been in excess of the minimum balance so that I meet my obligation to pay off the balance transfer the B of A offered. Yet B of A refuses to allocate my payments as requested so that I will now be charged approx. 30 % interest on a balance transfer of {$3000.00} made XX/XX/XXXX.

I have given Robinhood so many chances over the last 2 years. Their customer service staff especially XXXX is absolutely rude and awful human beings. They will arbitrarily put restrictions on your account and takes 7/10 days to get the restrictions lifted. There was no fraud on my account. XXXX placed a restriction on my cell phone from accessing the app he placed restrictions on withdrawing or depositing funds all because he didnt like that I was upset and in a rush to get help trying to stop a XXXX transaction I initiated to the wrong account by accident. He purposefully took his time, would not even speak on the call and eventually hung up and cost me XXXX by wasting time. His supervisor said if I had been transferred just a little earlier ( XXXX just sat on the phone doing literally nothing, not even speaking for almost 8 minutes ) I would have been able to retrieve my money. They play with your money. If you get a large sum deposited, restrictions, if you ask for help, restrictions.
