Company: M&T BANK CORPORATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
My wife and I both have some of our banking accounts ( 1 Personal Checking, 1 Personal Savings, 1 Business Checking ) with M & T Bank. I spoke with the manager regarding a complaint of an employee with a conflict of interest looking into my account. The bank manager that I spoke with is listed below. 

M & T Bank Rep. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX Vice President Senior Branch Managager I spoke with her on XX/XX/XXXX in the XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Md in the XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

The inquiry was regarding an two M & T employees ( one at the time was currently an employee, while the other was no longer employed with the bank ). These two individuals are directly related to someone I had a falling out with in my past who had/has been spreading false and/or disparaging rumors about me and my character over the last 2.5 - 3 years. I have reason to believe that they were prior into my account and sharing my personal information with this individual. This individual that has been spreading these false rumors, is also the father of employee 1 and the father-in-law of former employee 2. 

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I requested if they could investigate whether or not either of these individuals had made inquiries into our accounts which would have a clear conflict of interest. 

After I sent the email, XXXX XXXX called me directly to tell me that she had shared the info with proper department. She then explained to me that she could not tell me what department it was going to, or if they would get back with me. She told me that she is not allowed to tell me anything. She refused to tell me anything after multiple visits to this bank, while I repeated informed her that I felt like my privacy has been compromised. The bank will not respond to me via email and they will not give me a point of contact or the name of the department that is supposed to be doing the investigation. 

In addition to their refusal to share with me a direct answer, on XXXX XXXX, XXXX I received a notice from the same bank that said that after a recent review they found that between XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX more than one Non-Suffient Fund ( NSF ) Fees had been charged to my account and they accredited back to me {$100.00}.

1. Due to defects in the Wells Fargo online check deposit system, I have tried to take photos to deposit money several times but failed. There is no record of my taking photos to deposit money and the reason for the failure in the system.

2. If my operation is illegal, Wells Fargo should also give a warning. They should not close my checking account and savings account directly. Because I did nothing wrong, I followed the online prompts step by step.

3. Wells Fargo said in the account closure notice that I deposited and cashed checks many times. Please provide evidence.

4. Wells Fargo used its online defects as a tool to harm customers.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding inaccurate late payments that are reported on my credit file maintained by Experian I believe these late payments are erroneous and do not accurately reflect my payment history.

Nature of the Complaint : 1. Inaccurate Reporting : The late payments listed on my credit report are inaccurate. I have consistently made my payments on time, as I have been enrolled in autopay for all my accounts.

2. Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : The inaccurate reporting of these late payments violates my rights under the FCRA ( 15 USC 1666 ( b ) ), as they misrepresent my creditworthiness.

3. Potential Violation of Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : The reporting of false late payments may also constitute a violation of the FDCPA, which protects consumers from misrepresentation regarding their accounts.

4. Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) : I assert that the reporting practices violate the TILA, which mandates accurate reporting of credit information.

Additionally, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files.

Furthermore, under the FCRA, articles 616 and 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o ) outline the civil liability for willful and negligent noncompliance, respectively. These provisions provide for damages, including actual damages, attorneys fees, and possible punitive damages, for failure to comply with the Act 's requirements.
