Consumer complaint received 2022-12-29 00:00:00
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Bank of America blocked my checking and credit card accounts claiming that my residency documents were invalid. 

In the letter asking for my residency verification, XXXX of the accepted documents was an XXXX As I am currently in XXXX status, I provided Bank of America XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX. Despite providing the document proving my current residency status in the USA, Bank of America refused and claimed my XXXX was invalid because I am on XXXX status. A couple of phone calls later, they asked me to close both my account with them. I went ahead and closed my checking account, but while closing my credit card account, they refused to let me redeem the cashback amount of {$75.00} that I earned. 

Bank of America claims that my account is locked, so they can't let me redeem my cashback, but they can happily accept my payments to close the account. 

I find it unacceptable that a financial institution in the USA can force me to close my account without any valid reasons and, on top of that, not allow to redeem my own money.

Consumer complaint received 2022-12-29 00:00:00
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My credit card has a limit of {$5500.00} and I reached that limit on XX/XX/2022. However, Bank of America continued to approve transactions on that card allowing the credit balance to exceed {$8000.00} up until XX/XX/2022 when I called and asked them to stop. When I called to ask, they informed me that I was required to make a phone call in order to opt out of allowing my balance to go past the credit limit. They also told me that the only way to know what I needed to opt out of was for them to mail me a book with those rules. 

The overall problem is Bank of America never informed me that my credit card could spend past the limit and that if I don't want that to happen, I have to verbally inform them and wait up to 30 days.

Company: Fundo LLC
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
In the beginning it was explained to me that this particular loan was to help small business owners and there was no interest, but just a fee added on to the loan. Currently my payment status is up to date but the last time I spoke with the company I asked them about final payment and they told me I owed the amount {$1900.00} on top of the {$1200.00} Ive already paid them. I was confused about the total amount because the loan was only for {$1200.00} originally when I told them I was never explained any of these extra fees they seem to backpedal and couldnt explain anything and told me they can email me the agreement. The email stated that I abandoned the call with an agreement attached that I was never properly explained. I dont want this bad loan to affect my credit that Im so desperately trying to repair.
