Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On or around XXXX XXXX XXXX upon arriving back from my work XXXX as a XXXX XXXX I discovered that my personal information had been used to obtain credit and goods without my authorization. During the duration I was in contact with law enforcement and Wells Fargo and eventually given a law enforcement report ( XXXX ) including but not limited to three separate supplemental reports outlining additional forgery and identity theft surrounding stolen checks and my compromised identity. 

Moving forward and over the duration of the next several months I was forced to close several banking accounts, place blocks on my personal information with all major credit bureaus, and constantly monitor my personal information and financial institutions for a breach, not to mention the time I have had to take off work to address. 

On XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX I contacted the Wells Fargo Fraud Department to notify them of my recent review of my bank statements online and my discovery of several checks which were not authorized or signed by me. Having previously gone through this, Wells Fargo continues to not assist clients when fraud occurs and usually refers clients to their depository handbook in an effort not to reimburse the theft and monies placed in the care, custody and control of Wells Fargo. While on the phone outlining to the fraud department that the following check ( s ) made out to the same person were check ( s ) that were originally stolen in law enforcement report ( XXXX ). Additionally with the assistance of the fraud department we found the following checks to have been forged : Check XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Amount : {$6400.00} Check XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Amount : {$1200.00} Check XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Amount : {$2400.00} Check XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Amount : {$3500.00} Check XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Amount : {$6500.00} Upon reporting this ongoing fraud, I was given a reference number ( XXXX ) and told I would receive information in the mail including but not limited to a provisional credit while this matter was investigated. We are now sitting on XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX and I have not received any further correspondence. Since this theft has occurred my personal and business accounts have been overdrawn and Wells Fargo has done very little to make my accounts hold and return the monies. In addition to not supplying the mandated paperwork they have failed to conduct any type of investigation and the harm this forgery has caused is undetermined at this time.

Complaint narrative:
My account with was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported in 60 days to be removed. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments 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 designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports 8

Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I completed a promotional purchase of approximately {$6000.00} with a XXXX  % APR, set to expire in XX/XX/XXXX. Subsequently, in early XXXX, I executed a balance transfer of around {$6000.00}, also at XXXX % APR, with an end date in XXXX. I fully paid off the promotional purchase in XX/XX/XXXX. Contrary to my expectation, US Bank applied this payment to the recent balance transfer instead of the older promotional purchase. As a result, US Bank began charging a high interest rate ( exceeding {$100.00} per month ) on the previously promotional purchase. Upon contacting US Bank to rectify the allocation of my payment, I was informed that such a request could not be accommodated. These practices are inconsistent with reasonable consumer expectations and result in an unfair disadvantage to consumers.
