Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Problem with additional products or services purchased with the loan
Company: AMERICA FIRST FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I would like to report predatory practices by America First Credit Union. 

I have an auto loan with this bank and I have always been ahead of payments and tried paying off the loan early. They promise no fees or costs associated with early payoff, which is clearly a lie. The online banking limits payments to a certain amount per week and month, preventing payoff that way. So I tried reaching out to the bank to ask how to pay it off- through online messages and repeatedly calling. 

Every time I call I am placed on hold, often for so long I have to go. The automated system gives me an option for a callback, which I always select yes, and they have NEVER called me back - not 10 minutes later, not an hour later, not days later. Just never. 

In the meantime, they keep adding interest to this account I have been actively trying to pay off. 

I am not located in a state that has an America First branch so going in in person is not an option. 

Today I managed to get a hold of a person after waiting for more than XXXX hours on hold from an office phone. They informed me that I need to pay to transfer in money and that is the only way to pay of fthe loan. They will not waive that fee even though their loan was issued, again, under the guise of no fees for early repayment, and they claim they can not do anything about the interest being added daily. 

Very predatory to put up this many obstacles to paying off loans, while charging for it. 

XXXXerica First used to be a great bank with great customer service, but it's gone down the toilet like everything else. Horrendous experience. Will never deal with these thieves again.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against SYCB/ Care for their continued reporting and collection activity on an account that I have repeatedly disputed as fraudulent. This account is the result of identity theft. 

I have disputed this account multiple times with Synchrony and have provided : A valid FTC Identity Theft Report, which qualifies as an Identity Theft Report under FCRA 603 ( q ) ; A notarized affidavit confirming that I did not authorize or open this account ; Several written disputes under FCRA 605B, demanding deletion and a block on any reporting.

Despite this, Synchrony Bank has : Failed to comply with FCRA 605B ( b ), which requires blocking the tradeline within 4 business days of receiving a valid Identity Theft Report ; Continued to report this account to the credit bureaus, harming my credit ; Sent me repeated collection letters demanding payment, even though under FDCPA 809 ( b ), collection must cease until validation is provided ; Failed to provide any actual proof of my liability for this account no signed application, no contract, no documentation showing that I opened or agreed to this debt.

Instead, Synchrony simply continues to demand payment and to report this as a derogatory account on my credit file, despite clear notice that this is the result of identity theft.

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate Synchrony Bank for violations of : FCRA 605B ( failure to block reporting upon notice of identity theft ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( continuing to furnish information known to be fraudulent ), FDCPA 807 & 809 ( b ) ( continued collection without proper validation after dispute ).

I am also asking that Synchrony Bank be required to : Permanently delete this fraudulent account from all consumer reporting agencies ; Cease all collection activities and communications about this account ; Provide written confirmation that this account has been removed and closed in accordance with the law. 

I have attached my FTC Identity Theft Report.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
