Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Beginning in XX/XX/XXXX I reported to Bank of America multiple recurring fraudulent charges to my checking account dated back to XX/XX/XXXX. I've made over 20 phone calls to BoA. I opened multiple claims, provided all requested info over the phone, and faxed in 41 pages of evidence to prove I am the victim of fraud. This includes a police report, complaints with multiple other federal agencies, and another CFPB complaint ( XXXX ). After placing the cited CFPB complaint, the 2 claims cited there were permanently refunded ( with no explanation and no contact ). BoA still owes me {$30.00} and refuses to help me neither on the phone or at a local branch. BoA claim XXXX for {$29.00} is still outstanding. It was not included in the original CFPB complaint because I was not yet notified that it was denied. For this claim, I am only requesting {$29.00} of the {$61.00} denied. I fully explain this in my attached letter, which was sent to BoA through a bank center on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Please help me close this out.
