Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I changed banks from Bank of America to XXXX on XXXX of XX/XX/2023. I called the National number for Social Security and made the change. The change did not go through, and was told to call the local office. I did and the information was updated. When I called Bank of America, they found out that the 10 day closing hold on the account had not happened and it would be expedited. That was on Tuesday, XX/XX/2023. The hold was removed on XX/XX/2023. I was told that they would be sending me a check for the left over balance of {$57.00} and the SSI check in the amount of {$910.00} for a total of {$970.00}. I got this from one person. The next one told me they would be sending the check back to Social Security. Then another person told me that a check has been sent out for the {$57.00}, but the SSI check has been sent back to Social Security. That was as of Wednesday according to the man I spoke with with today, and the {$57.00} has been sent out in the form of a check, he wasn't sure what was going on with the SSI check. He doesn't even have record of a Social Security check coming to them at all. Social Security has yet to receive, any thing from Bank of America and Bank of America keep giving me the run around about it or where it's coming from, another keeps telling it has been sent back to Social Security. They have done something with my SSI check and won't give me a straight answer as to what they've done with it. I need this money, and Bank of America isn't giving me anything to go with.

I had ta Bank of America XXXX XXXX card and the account was switched to XXXX XXXX.

I closed out all of it so I believe it was between XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I never received the voucher. I started calling and the BOA stated they would look into it. I kept calling and then around XXXX they stated I would have to deal with Comenity to resolve this issue. They could not talk to me since I did not have an active account with them. I called XXXX starting in XXXX and they opened a ticket and told me that BOA has 90 days to respond, call back in 90 days. I did, BOA never responded and they opened another ... and another. This has been going on since XXXX XXXX supervisor told me in XXXX that BOA will not respond to them. I just got a letter from XXXX stating since its been so long they are closing my complaint there is nothing they can do. I have spoke to XXXX and asked for a supervisor to call me and I have not heard back. It is not my fault BOA will not respond or talk to me and they are the ones who kept telling me call back in 90 days. I know this is BOA 's issue, they have my money, but I cant get anyone to take the time to look into it. I dont know if it was lost in the mail or just never sent, but either way I never received it. If it was mailed they should be able to see the check was not cashed but if no one will take the time to look into this issue and they dont care because I am no longer their card holder. Its not my fault they lost the XXXX account. Please help me resolve this.

Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.
