Complaint narrative:
I want to get my last name changed back to my maiden name with US Bank Home Mortgage. I currently have a mortgage through this bank. I was legally divorced on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I called US Bank in XXXX XXXX and notified them of my request. They mailed me a name change packet and requested documentation. I filled everything out and mailed it back. Since I did n't hear back from them, I assumed the name change had taken place. In XXXX XXXX, I received a copy of my annual escrow account disclosure statement and noticed my last name was still my married name. I called them to inform them that the name change had not taken place. They stated they did not have a copy of my final divorce decree. I asked them to look into the documentation that I submitted because everything was in the same packet so if they received all of the other documents, they should have the divorce decree. I did not receive any further follow up phone calls or emails to notify me of the results of the search. I called again on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and they stated they still did not have the copy of the divorce decree so I faxed over the copy to the fax number that they provided me. I continued to call to verify they had received the document. I was told that it takes time for the bank to receive the information and then update my account. I called on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and was told they still had not received the divorce decree. They gave me another fax number which I faxed the document to. I called on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and they confirmed that the document was received but it takes 7-10 business days to update my account. I called again on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, which was 10 business days and was told the account was still not updated. This time, the person I spoke with called another person to check on the status. She informed me that there was no documentation as to why the name change had not taken place and that this person would call or email me. I never heard anything back from anyone as of yet. I am writing this to ask for assistance in getting US Bank to change my last name to my maiden name. I have made at least 20 phone calls since XXXX XXXX and I still have not been able to resolve this. There has been no communication from the bank to me, NO COMMUNICATION, I have current email and phone numbers with them. I need to file my taxes and can not do so because they have the wrong last name. They also sent me a refund check on my account, which I can not cash, as the check has my married name listed. Please help.

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Complaint narrative:
We took out a loan. We noticed that our principle reduction over-payments were credited to future monthly payments. I went to the branch, spoke to an officer who told me that he would fix the misapplication of the over-payments and rightfully classify them as principle reduction. As the payments are auto paid from a savings account at the same bank I did not examine a statement until over a year later. At that time we saw that our payments were applied until XXXX. I went into the branch where we took out the mortgage, spoke to the manager who did not understand the misapplication and fixed the issue. 
However the bank has not been transparent about the way it reapportioned the interest. I requested several times that they send me a statement showing that if they applied the principle reduction correctly, the interest paid each month would go down slightly every month, which is not shown that way on the statement they sent. 
After XXXX months and several emails with the branch manager and several calls to the mortgage department they have not responded to my request. I request that USBank provide a statement transparently showing my payments and interest paid in the format as follows : DATE BALANCE PAYMENT PRINCIPLE REDUCTION INTEREST BALANCE as this is the way all financial institutions show history.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of 2003 XXXX transfers, totaling about {$50000.00}, were arranged from a bank in XXXX, to banks in XXXX and XXXX XXXX. XXXX were unsuccessful, resulting in the loss of these funds despite {$60.00} in bank transfer fees paid. The sending bank, according to their printed wire receipts, indicate that mistaken and incomplete wire transfer numbers were used. Their reports indicate no problem with the transfers, despite the non-receipt by the intended recipients. Because no problems were evident on these reports, and the intended recipients had no basis to know to expect wire transfers, and no verification of these transfers were made, these XXXX transfers have been lost. Both the sending and recipient banks no longer have records, although printed records from 2003 are available. Direct contact with the sending bank has been unsuccessful in securing their cooperation in repayment of the lost funds.

Complaint narrative:
There is a company named XXXX XXXX XXXX that continues to call me and threaten me with a law suit. They will not provide a validation notice and have made threats of lawsuits, coming to my place of employment to serve me, and stating that they will find me through my family. They have personal information about me such as my social and address and it concerns me. They offer a settlement over the phone and say I need to pay them through credit card immediately. This feels fraudulent and I am concerned they may be trying to commit identity fraud or collect debt that is not real.

If the claims were separated I would not even qualify for the monitored process. I have paid monies out of my own pocket to begin the repairs but they are refusing to release the funds to reimburse the monies spent or for other items such as appliances and XXXX XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I originally had a home mortgage loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX but they transferred the account over to US Bank back on XXXX XXXX, 2016. I have always paid my mortgage 1 month in advance therefore I sent my payment to XXXX XXXX XXXX before I received correspondence that the loan had been transferred. XXXX XXXX XXXX had sent my payment history over to US Bank at the end of XXXX clearly documenting that my payment was received by them and applied to the account in XXXX for the XXXX payment. US Bank has requested and received every document, bank statement and cancelled check regarding this account. US Bank has been very difficult and lack luster in providing good customer service to get this matter resolved. I can never speak to a manager, dates to resolve this case have been given to me since XXXX XXXX, 2016 my first point of contact date with this banking institution. Nothing is getting resolved no matter how many times I call, just more false promises and being tossed around by reps. I get regular phone calls several times a week that are harassing and letters that reflect incorrect information about this account. I do not owe any additional payments because I have never been late. US Bank has not been able to submit the proper recording of information into my file which would make it current. This is the worse experience I have ever had with a bank let alone as a first time homeowner. They have been nothing but difficult, unprofessional, poor communicators and horrible with their customer service skills and problem solving abilities. They have also used me to participate in their backroom banking operations process between banks that I know nothing about or should be involved in at any time. This matter should be resolved between banks not the consumer. US Bank needs to record the XXXX payment that XXXX XXXX XXXX issued them and make the account current.I ca n't understand the confusion if all the documentation is present for US Bank to record.

Complaint narrative:
Initially, I went to make a purchase through XXXX that subscribes to a service called Verified by XXXX, to complete the purchase you must provide your password, which I entered, and entered again and again and it was n't accepted. I then tried to reset the password and provided all the needed info, again multiple times, each time it was rejected. Since it was declined, I went and purchased the items elsewhere on a different card. Then I find that they went ahead and completed the transaction even after all the rejections and telling me I was providing wrong info. I then sent a message to Compass Bank through their on-line banking system, which they deleted. Sent another message about it, and have continued to send messages daily to the bank for a week now. Each time I send a message, I get a response stating they will try and respond within one business day, it is now at XXXX messages and not a single response. Have a feeling they want me to call and deal with this over the phone as that provides them with deniability as there have been other issues in the past. i.e. I signed up at Compass Bank under an offer that was mailed to me which promised free checking for life. A couple years later they changed this and started charging me, when I challenged them on this, they asked for a copy of the letter, my reply was that they had attached it to the original paperwork opening the account. I then called another branch and asked if they maintain the original paperwork on accounts and was told yes. I then proceeded to the original bank branch and told them I had been told they maintain this paperwork, they replied 'yes, it 's a banking requirement ', but then I provided my ID and lo and behold, my paperwork had vanished ... ..and of course no offer was made to attempt to find it. Will add but a few of the screenshots showing that the messages have been sent acknowledged and ignored

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
Earlier this week I opened a new money market account online. My account is a joint account with my wife ; however, the process to open the new account online included me providing my driver 's license, and none of my wife 's information. Several days later, the new account appeared online, in their online banking system but did not display the interest rate ( likely under 1 % ). I called the XXXX number to speak with a customer service agent and they advised me that I was not on the account. I explained that the account was opened by me using my driver 's license. Also, I had authenticated with them with the password on my account. Since I was logged into their online banking portal, I could provide complete account number for all XXXX of my accounts, including a checking, XXXX savings, and a mortgage account. I asked to speak to a supervisor or manager so I could understand the protocol around authentication and account ownership. I was once again advised that I do not own or have access to the new savings account opened earlier this week. I asked who opened it and they again stated they were not allowed to discuss the account. I will likely be closing my account after the rude treatment and lack of service. I 'm not sure if there are regulations which protect me from not being able to get access to my money or account information, but the whole experience just seems backwards. It is sad to end a banking relationship with a bank I have trusted for over 10 years ; and also it is annoying that I will have to reroute a handful of auto-payments for utilities, etc to a new financial institution. Oh well, I guess BBVA has too many customers, and their cost of customer acquisition must be very very low. Good for them, bad for me.

We received a payoff that had an amount good through XXXX XXXX, 2016. The full amount of funds were wired to Carrington Mortgage CA XXXX. Their company did n't upload the correct amount of funds-they uploaded a smaller amount and rejected the payoff. When title and I called they could n't give us an amount and kept saying it was in foreclosure. I was referred to a lady XXXX, their attorney, who stated it was not in foreclosure and no additional fees had been assessed. Carrington Mortgage has added an additional {$800.00} in fees they ca n't explain to me what they are for. They will not release the house or take the funds unless we pay this amout. The home was never filed to be in foreclosure. They are also now charging us additional days that they returned the money for but they never even uploaded the correct amount on XXXX XXXX. Today is now the XXXX and they are still charging us because they wo n't accept the funds. Title sent them the exact amount on this payoff Carrington Mortgage provided ... giving the balance through XXXX XXXX but to add {$26.00} per day until the XXXX. As I stated the funds were wired XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$200000.00}. Carrington Mortgage only uploaded {$200000.00} Then stated it was n't enough to payoff and returned all funds. The loan is still accustoming interest as I type this though we sent balance in full almost a week ago that they refused.
