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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed : XXXX XXXX

Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
On my XXXX statement ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ), I had XXXX types of balances : XXXX. PURCHASES {$1300.00} ( PROMOTIONAL RATE EXPIRES XX/XX/XXXX ) XXXX. BALANCE TRANSFER {$250.00} ( PROMOTIONAL RATE EXPIRES XX/XX/XXXX ) XXXX. PROMOTIONAL BALANCE {$20000.00} ( PROMOTIONAL RATE EXPIRES XX/XX/XXXX ) I took this to mean that if I paid {$1600.00}, it would clear the oldest balances ( the purchases and balance transfer fee ). And so, I paid {$1600.00} on XX/XX/XXXX ( due date ) but when I received my XXXX statement, I saw I was charged {$33.00} in interests. My payment was inexplicably divided into the XXXX different types of balances rather than going towards the oldest ones first which I believe led to the interest getting charged. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to get to the bottom of this and they tried to explain their payment structure but again it made no sense. I requested how much I needed to pay to wipe the earliest balance and they gave me the formula to calculate my payment for next month. However, this occurred again in the XXXX statement ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ) when the oldest balance was still wiped despite using their formula. I believe Wells Fargo is using deceptive payment practices in order to extract revenue from interests fees.
