Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Opening an account — Didn't receive terms that were advertised
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a new checking account with Citizens Bank XX/XX/21 ( Application # XXXX ). On XX/XX/21, I received an email from Citizens stating that my new account was open and a {$50.00} transaction was processed from my debit card ( from another institution ) to fund the account. At this point, I setup an online account to access my new checking account and setup my paycheck to be direct deposited into this new account at Citizens Bank. I opened this account under a promotion offered by Citizens Bank for a {$400.00} bonus for opening a new checking account with direct deposit ( Promotion code = XXXX ). 

On XX/XX/21, I received in the mail a new debit card for this account. When I called the number to activate my debit card, I was instead forwarded to a representative. He said there was a problem with my account and he needed to speak with a supervisor. After waiting for a total of 45 minutes on hold, the representative told me there was nothing he could do to help me and nothing he could tell me about the problem. He said I should wait for a letter in the mail which would come in a day or two. At this point, I also realized that my online account was locked and I could no longer access my account. 

On XX/XX/21, I finally received a letter from Citizens Bank. It stated that my account had been closed. It offered no other information other than vague threats like " If you continue using this closed account, we will be forced to place a freeze on it. '' In fact, earlier that day my paycheck in the amount of {$500.00} was direct deposited to this account, as I had set up earlier. 

The letter also claims that they will send me a check for the balance at some point in the future. But they have no right to hold my money. They have already held {$50.00} for more than 2 weeks and now they are also holding an additional {$500.00} from my paycheck. Furthermore, as I have set up ( and they have received ) the direct deposit required for the promotion they offered me, I am now due the {$400.00} bonus that was promised. At this point, I have no idea when I will get my money as they have refused to speak with me on the phone. The letter I received is signed by " Fraud Operations '' but it seems clear that Citizens Bank is the one perpetuating a fraud here. The have enticed me to sign up for an account under false promises of a bonus, and then locked me out of access to my own money. 

I have attached screenshots showing the promotion that was offered and the promotion code attached to my account application. I have also included a copy of the letter I received. Finally, I can not provide my full checking account number as I have been locked out of online access.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020, I made a purchase from a shop through paypal with my credit card for XXXX. My credit card is through Capital One. The items that I received were not what I ordered. I notified the company through XXXX, because they did not have a customer service phone number or email address. The company asked me to keep the items and that they would refund me 10 %. I told them no. They then asked me to ship the items back at my expense internationally and they would refund me fully. I told them that if they sent me a shipping label that I would happily send it back. They never responded and I escalated the claim to Capital One. This is the first time that I received a letter asking me for more information and they decided to close my case. I am not appreciative of this. I called and spoke with a XXXX, who on the call, states that he is the highest person in the call center that I could speak with and then directed me to the stakeholders if I wanted to speak with someone higher. I am not pleased with the service right now and I am not pleased with how he kept interrupting me through the call, and I am not pleased with how my claim is being handled. Not at all.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2020, 3 fraudulent ATM withdrawals were made using my Bank of America EDD card, for a total amount of {$2900.00}.

The card was in my possession at all times yet someone managed to get its details, or rather forge it to get a perfect copy of it, as well as my PIN code, which nobody but me knew. As a result, my account had been drained out. They had withdrawn the maximum daily authorized amount. 
The fraudulent withdrawals were the following : - XX/XX/XXXX : {$1000.00} - XX/XX/XXXX : {$980.00} - XX/XX/XXXX : {$1000.00} I have called Bank of America EDD customer service number as soon as I noticed the fraudulent activity, on XX/XX/XXXX I believe, and a claim was instantly filed over the phone. 

A week later, I received in the mail a notice dated from 2 days after my phone call, stating that my claim had been closed, without any other reason, and without the money being credited to my account. 
I then immediately called them back to have more information, and was told that my case had actually been accidentally closed ... So I instantly reopened a new one. I kept calling and being put on hold for 2 hours at a time, until mid-XXXX I finally got to get an update, to be told that my claim was still pending, and that I should hang tight. 

I waited a few weeks and since there were no news, I called back again mid-XXXX, to be told that my second claim had in fact been closed on XX/XX/XXXX, without further explanation, or even notice received at the time. I was shocked, I had been told that work was still in progress when in fact my case had been closed, for the second time. 

It has now been over 3 months that this money was taken from my account and I still haven't received any update about the resolution.
