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.

Company: EVERBANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
My complaint is against XXXX XXXX for their handling of my XXXX term CD. I only engage XXXX through their mobile app. Specifically, my CD reached the XXXX maturity date. After that, according to XXXX, because I did not call within XXXX of the maturity date they initiated another XXXX term. Today, I contacted XXXX to close the CD and was advised there would be a {$3000.00} early withdrawal penalty. When I confronted XXXX about this predatory amount I was advised that the terms of early withdrawal where shared with me during the original agreement. I stated that since I only engage with them through the mobile App I can not be expected to recall terms from over XXXX  years ago and that I should have been given notice through the mobile app since they have records that this is my only engagement tool. Furthermore, I questioned how I could be charged on the entire principal amount when they initiated new 4 year terms without my consent. Giving Customers a limited XXXX window to provide instructions on how to handle an account after sitting with XXXX terms is a dishonest business practice as that XXXX window assumes a Customer has access and awareness to provide instruction. I would NOT have chosen to initiate another XXXX term had XXXX made XXXX aware of their intended actions through the mobile APP. This business practice undoubtedly is abusive and takes advantage of Customers who XXXX not recall CD origination detail and should receive notice and a longer window to provide instructions in order to avoid such a significant penalty.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I recieved a digital letter from Synchrony Bank who owns my Sam 's Club Credit card informing me that they had dropped my credit limit from {$1500.00} to {$500.00} due to several reasons, the first XXXX listed being my student loans not being paid down enough ( my student loans have been in deferrment and are scheduled to resume in XX/XX/year> of this year ). This made it look like the card was nearly maxed and of course drowns my XXXX XXXX. This bank has done this on several cards, even though I never was late on a payment or missed a payment. I would like to know what my rights are. Unfortunately, I was unable to save the letter before it seems to have disappeared. 

Thank you.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX This letter is formal notice that you have failed to respond to my dispute letter of 3-19-24. I sent this letter certified mail and have enclosed a copy of the return receipt which says you received it. Federal law requires you to respond within 30 days. It has now been over that period since your receipt of my letter. As you are no doubt aware, failure to comply with federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are in serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and may be investigated by the FTC. 

I have been maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with you. You may have misplaced my letters or have failed to respond to my letter because of an oversight due to the high volume of the requests you receive daily. If this is the case, I'm sure you'll want to handle this matter as soon as possible. For this purpose, I have included a copy of my original request, the dated receipt of your reception of the original letter and a copy of the proof verifying the incorrectness of the credit item you have mistakenly placed on my records. I was not given proper time to dispute the debt as well which is another violation of my consumer rights under 15 usc 1681 The following information therefore needs to be DELETED from the report as soon as possible : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX Delete this erroneous item from my credit report as soon as possible. I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Mo ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I XXXX Presume that no proof of the alleged Debt, nor therefore any such debt in fact exists.
