I do not agree with the amount your company has put in my consumer report.

Pursuant to 15 USC 1692a ( 4 ) the term creditor means any person who offers or extends credit creating a debt or to whom a debt is owed.

If you claim that I own the debt than please send me the instrument of indebtness with my signature. Also please keep in mind numbers or ID numbers is not a signature. If you can not provide me this instrument of indebtness than the debt is not owned by me and this has to be removed from my consumer report.

Complaint narrative:
Today - XX/XX/2022, I spoke with an individual by the name of XXXX - that works in the " unclaimed property department '' for Bank of America. I asked her to place my funds placed back in my bank account. She placed me on hold and came back to the phone conversation and began reading the disclosure from the bank that stated, whenever the bank can not contact the bank customer- they send the funds to the state. 

The problem I have with this is that the letter I received yesterday XX/XX/2022, was the " first and only time '' I received anything from Bank of America, and the letter that I have attached states " Escheatment of abandoned account to state '' The assistance I am seeking is to have my funds placed back into my account. Bank of America has chosen to step bounds without properly contacting me ( as stated in their own disclosure ) to find out if I was still alive. Bank of America, I am still alive and don't take it upon yourself to make decisions for me when I am alive to make them for myself. Place the funds back into my bank account.
