Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX never provided a resolution or goodwill. 
My credit report is still affected as well as my Insurance Score. 
This adverse action has reduced my insurance score which is impacting a higher insurance rate. 
The Bank claims the issue has been resolved but refuses to contact the credit agencys to update the information. 
This bank reported to the credit agencys twice in error. 
The first time the late payment was disputed the bank falsified a record stating that I was late and I had to write letters and exhaustively contact this bank without any help. If this bank refuses to provide a reasonable goodwill I will be filing a lawsuit for violating the fair credit reporting act as well as negligence and failure to respond.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of 2022, I was unemployed and contacted XXXX about solutions available to me, due to unemployment. I was on unemployment and receiving government benefits and told them I could provide proof if needed be. They kept telling me they had no programs available to me, even with me being on government assistance. 

In XXXX of 2022, I received a call about my payment missing. I informed the agent that I was unemployed and receiving government benefits. She told me that if I could make a payment of {$170.00} that would cover XXXX and XXXX. She then informed that if I made an additional payment of {$86.00}, that would cover XXXX 's payment. I checked my account and luckily had received my tax refund check and made the payments. 

In XXXX of 2022, I started receiving calls from XXXX saying I was behind again. I questioned how that could be, considering what the lady told me. I asked for them to go back and listen to the call to see what she told me. 

The calls continued into XXXX of 2022 and every time I asked the customer service rep to verify what I was told, they told me they would put it in a request and then get back to me. I then told them I wanted to hear the XX/XX/XXXX call also. I told them if I heard it wrong, I would pay gladly pay them. I also asked about any programs, as I was just recently employed, but had not received a check and they told me they could lower my payments, if I agreed to another 10 years added to the loan. I declined. 

The calls came in once every XXXX days and each time I asked for them to review the call and they told they would and would get back to me, but never did so. 

I submitted an online inquiry on XX/XX/2022, due to not getting a response from them. Before ever getting back to me they alerted the credit bureau of a delinquent account. They finally replied to me on XX/XX/2022. 

This could have been solved before then, had their reps gotten back to me.

Complaint narrative:
I started my accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  in XXXX and had checking, saving, credit card, and the Line Of Credit ( LOC ) accounts. 
My LOC had a limit of {$40000.00} with interest rate of XXXX XXXX XXXX 
In XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from US Bank increasing my LOC interest to Prime + 2.99 %. On XX/XX/XXXX again I received another notice that they intend to increase my interest rate to Prime + 8.74 % effective XXXX 
After my call on XXXX  using my Opt Out option US Bank confirmed on XX/XX/XXXX that my LOC was cancelled and the interest rate would stay the same until my LOC balance of about {$29000.00} is paid off. 
Since then I have paid my minimum payments as direct withdraw from my account and my recent LOC balance is about {$5000.00} and the interest charged is 11.49 %. Withdraws from my US Bank and later XXXX XXXX accounts have been executed few days before due date and never been late or defaulted. In spite of my credit rating of XXXX, US Bank ( during Covid19 period ) without proper notice cancelled my credit card and checking account, and later I closed my US Bank saving account and had the payments made directly from my XXXX XXXX account. 
Thank you in advance for your consideration and help.

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo performed a " Web Direct/Debit Payment '' withdrawal from my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX checking account that I did not authorize. 

I have an auto loan with Wells Fargo for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. That auto loan has been on an automatic loan payment program since XX/XX/XXXX. 

Every month since XXXX of XXXX, Wells Fargo has performed an " Automatic Loan Payment '' transaction to withdraw {$510.00} from my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX checking account and apply it to my Wells Fargo Auto XXXX. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Wells Fargo performed a " Web Direct/Debit Payment '' transaction to withdraw {$510.00} from my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX checking account. These types of electronic transactions require customer authorization. I did not authorize such a request. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Wells Fargo performed the typically scheduled " Automatic Loan Payment '' transaction and withdrew a second {$510.00} from my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX checking account. 

On Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered Wells Fargo 's unauthorized withdrawal from my XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX checking account. 

I contacted Wells Fargo customer service and was asked to email screenshots of my XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account transactions showing that the Wells Fargo withdrawals had cleared. The screenshots were emailed. 

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, a representative named XXXX from Wells Fargo left a voicemail on my wife 's phone asking me to call her regarding the issue. I attempted two callbacks on Thursday. I tried a third callback on Friday at approximately XXXXXXXX XXXX Pacific. 

I reached XXXX and was informed that she would try to look into it, but it would likely not be until Monday XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, because she only worked for another XXXX minutes. No options were provided for me to speak with another representative working Pacific Time Zone business hours. 

So now, it appears that Wells Fargo will not make any effort to reimburse me for my money. This error on their part placed me in a difficult position as I relied on that {$500.00} to pay other bills. XXXX also told me that Wells Fargo had XXXX business days to decide to give me back my money and would mail it to me because they had no method of electronically transmitting the payment back to my Checking Account. That is hard to believe because they electronically withdrew my money when they first made the mistake.
