On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter re : inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. It has been over 60 days and I have not received a response yet.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021 I contacted BB & T because once the merger was successful I was charged a service fee of XXXX throwing my account into overdraft. The total I owed was XXXX and some change ( exact dollar amounts forwarded upon request ). I cleared that balance, paid it in full and closed the account. The bank informed me that because my direct deposit was less than XXXX the fee was charged. I was outraged. I am XXXX XXXX of age and was in the hospital for several weeks, thus my direct deposit was less. So I cleared my balance with the bank, and left XXXX in the account because I am tired of the money that BB & T now Truist takes in fees from my account and the fees they collect on my account. On XX/XX/2021 I closed my account in person at the XXXX XXXX branch and there was a XXXX balance, today I checked the account as the cards were cut in front of the young lady that I went into the bank to closed the account. No paperwork was given and I was informed that I would not receive paperwork that day but that it would be mailed to me ( and to date I have not received that paperwork ) so I asked her for my account numbers and routing number so that if my deposit came in before my job stopped my direct deposit and it was routed to BB & T they could find my money. This bank has been ripping me off since the pandemic started and I have proof of how many times BB & T closed my account and issued new account numbers, ATM cards and prepaid Debit cards in order to keep me as a client. They knew they was wrong and I can forward this information upon request. Today I called BB & T/TRUIST to make sure my direct deposit did not go to an closed account, ( today is XX/XX/2021 ) and this bank had the nerve to charge me XXXX on a positive account ( it was not negative when I closed the account and they charged me this fee on a closed account. I would like to have this fee and charge dismissed as they young lady informed me to keep the XXXX in the account in the event that my direct deposit hit. Now how did the XXXX become a negative XXXX and they access a fee of XXXX on a closed account. All my creditors ( proof given upon request ) was given my new account ( Visa card numbers for bill paying on XX/XX/2021 ) so no bills went or was forwarded to BB & T for payment. I am not going to pay this fee and would like to have it cleared and closed before they report it to the Credit Bureau. Thank you
