Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am an elderly man. I have banked with BofA for 46 years. I set a bill pay to pay {$9500.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX Collector that would arrive by XX/XX/XXXX. BofA indicated it was sent on XX/XX/XXXX as a draft. The payment was not deposited to XXXX Collector account until XX/XX/XXXX. Tax collector charged my account {$960.00} late charge, as the payment was due on XX/XX/XXXX. The Tax Collector would have used the postmark on the check envelope ( XX/XX/XXXX ) as a delivery date, but the envelope was bulk mail/pre-sorted and did not have the standard postmark, thus the assessed late charge. I called BofA a number of times notably XX/XX/XXXX and opened XXXX # XXXX. They would call tax collector and ask for late charge waiver. On XX/XX/XXXX BofA responded via Messages in my online account, and indicated that the Tax collector would not divulge public information. I called tax collector, and they said it is all public information. Called BofA on XX/XX/XXXX and they attempted a call back to tax collector and were denied the waiver request for late charge. BofA sent me an online Billpay Message on same date and stated they would refund the {$960.00} and the funds would be in my account in XXXX business days. Called BofA on XX/XX/XXXX was told the payment refund was not made due to the internal request not being completed properly, it now had been rectified and the refund would be made in XXXX business days, again and online bill pay message was sent to my XXXX center and payment would be made to my account in XXXX business days. On XX/XX/XXXX I called BofA and asked where my money was. I was told first it had been declined, then that the third party XXXX ( who handles online bill pay ) was responsible for it. BofA then cold transferred me to XXXX and I went through the process again, I then was told it was continuing through the approval process and money would be in my account in XXXX business days. I questioned that again, then the response was changed to follow up in XXXX business days, and that it would not be paid in XXXX business days.

I have an auto loan with First Investors account XXXX XXXX and its almost paid off. I owe about {$4300.00} on it have been making payments to pay it off. Recently I checked my credit report and they have reported my XXXX  charged off and I dont understand how or why. I just spoke to a rep last week when I set up a payment and they never said my account had been charged off except I was XXXX days late. So how is my XXXX  being charged off?? This happened after I disputed my XXXX being XXXX days past due which was incorrect and I guess they didnt like that and decided to charge my XXXX off even though they were getting payment and my XXXX wouldve been paided off this year. My XXXX XXXX had went down on XXXX for them reporting my XXXX  charged off when it shouldnt be. I proof of sending payments and I had just spoke to a representative last week when setting up my payment. My XXXX wouldve been paided off this year and I wouldve had the title. I dont understand how they can do this to me.

Complaint narrative:
Account Name : XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Number : XXXX Reason for Dispute : The payment was marked as late, but I did not receive the periodic statement at least 21 days before the payment due date. 
Late Date : XXXX I am writing to dispute the following inaccurate information that appears on my credit report. Under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1666b, a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures to ensure that each periodic statement is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Additionally, if an open-end consumer credit plan provides a grace period during which the obligor may repay any portion of the credit extended without incurring an additional finance charge, such a charge may not be imposed unless a statement including the amount upon which the finance charge is based was mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the date specified for payment. In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1666b, I request that the credit bureau conduct a thorough investigation of these items and correct or remove the inaccurate information from my credit report. You can also check below attachment that i am paying on time.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
1- A representative at American express informed me that I have a gold American Express XXXX since XXXX but under a different name and in another state ( i have only ever applied for any/all credit/ debit cards in only one state ( residence ) 2- I received great communication with the fraud department of American Express and was informed that i will receive more information via regular mail only. 

3- I have been dealing with several issues with the mail and failed to receive replacement cards for two other banks since XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 4- I created an account with XXXX and discovered through the website that the American Express letter had been sent but my mailbox was completely empty so i filed a claim for the missing piece. 

5- There are several inaccuracies regarding both my personal information and credit card history on my credit report and I have spent endless hours trying to have the information corrected only to find the issue growing larger. 

6- On my credit report 2 completely separate bank accounts were combined as one. XXXX and XXXX  XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ). I could not make any sense of these two credit cards were opened years apart and XXXX had been closed several years ago. I also couldnt find any statements related to XXXX  XXXX so i called XXXX XXXX and XXXX and XXXX with no luck. 

7- On this day, i found that both XXXX and XXXX XXXX were entirely removed from my credit report as if they never existed. 

8- The initial reason i made all these calls before deciding to report is that i had assumed there to be some form of misunderstandings as both American Express and XXXX  XXXX had been closed as a result of my recent divorce. 

9- Macys tricked me into believing my account had been closed during a few times i went to shop there without my card but with the provided drivers license and SSN. I was told my account was closed but i knew i had paid it off so I figured it was just their decision as I had similar experience with my Rooms to go account. I later discovered that the macys account had been opened for months with recurring charges and then closed! 

10- I had been instructed that i can freeze my XXXX through a local social security office And i did exactly that and even received a confirmational email of the freeze. This happened on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX ( I scanned the ticket number XXXX ) however the email associated with this visit was hacked and i no longer have access to it. 

Note : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was closed late XXXX or early XXXX no actual information specific to this account shows on my credit report. 

XXXX claim number : XXXX
