Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I entered into a disaster forbearance, due to a storm in XXXX. Prior to the forbearance ended, I called on XX/XX/XXXX to apply for resolution to the forbearance. I was told the process was an application, which I completed over the phone. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called back and was told I was put into another forbearance. I asked that I be reevaluated for other programs. I again did an application over the phone. I was assured that I was in loss mitigation and that my credit report would not be affected during this process. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX for a status update, I was told the application that was supposed to be done on XX/XX/XXXX was not done and I had to do another XXXX, which I did. On XX/XX/XXXX, this same thing happened again ; again on XX/XX/XXXX I went through the same process again after I received approval for the Stand Alone Partial Claim twice, and it was not honored either time. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called after returning the acceptance of the Partial Claim and was told I was put back in a forbearance. Each time I spoke with my mortgage company I asked about my credit and was assured that I would not be affected because I was in this process. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called after finding out that it has been reported that I was delinquent on my credit report and was on hold for XXXX hour and XXXX minutes for a supervisor, the supervisor answered and put me back on hold. I was then told that she would get back to me within XXXX. I have not received a call back to date. My credit is still affected and my issue with the forbearance remains.

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''

Company: DISCOVER BANK

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for a product/service from XXXX. I received the product but never the services. I tried to contact them multiple times with XXXX response about scheduling lab work. This made me nervous so I canceled the service and put a stop payment on the company through Discover. Finally when I got in contact they admitted there was fault on their part and offered to credit me {$25.00}. The credit never happened so I contacted Discover again to dispute the transaction. For XXXX I never received the services promised from a provider, only an email. XXXX, they promised a credit I never received. Discover filed the dispute and sided with XXXX. XXXX admitted they failed to provide the initial refund, and my messages weren't answered so they offerd me a {$50.00} credit. When they issued it it failed to post to my Discover account. XXXX sent a screenshot of a credit that they tried to credit my account XX/XX/XXXX but say the charge back is still in place, it reversed XX/XX/XXXX on my statement, so they refuse to do anything and tell me to work with Discover. I've provided Discover with multiple emails from XXXX, showing the refund failure, the admitting they failed to credit {$25.00} initially, showing they were crediting me {$50.00}, showing the last XXXX of the card used. Discover now refuses to repoen the dispute for the incorrect amount due to " policy ''. Each company puts the responsibility on the other and neither will fix the issue.

Issue: Closing an account — Fees charged for closing account
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
I have a checking account with PNC for 8 months and was charged {$25.00} in monthly fee to keep the account active. To save money, I contacted customer service to close my account. One of the requirement to close the account was to have a {$0.00} balance. A bill payment was initiated on XX/XX/XXXX to remove all available balance. On XX/XX/XXXX and for hte next 4 days, I contacted PNC via chat daily to request bank account closure. After getting a hold of someone, they advised me that the bill payment have to clear before I can request bank account closure. Bill payment cleared on XX/XX/XXXX and on the same day I was charged a $ XXXX  monthly fee resulting in a negative balance on the account. I contacted customer service again and they can not process account closure due to the {$25.00} negative account balance. A courtesy credit was requested twice but it was rejected by a live and chat associate because I am trying to terminate the relationship. 

PNC is making consumer jump through hoops to close an account and have deliberately put roadblock in place to lengthen the time they can charge monthly fee. I am concern the negative balance will result in an overdraft fee and subsequent interest charges will be added on top. I just want to close my account on XX/XX/XXXX and go to another financial institution that does not charge a $ XXXX  monthly fee and should not be penalize for doing so.
