Company: OLD NATIONAL BANCORP
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Received a letter from Old National Bank XX/XX/XXXX for a loan in the amount of {$36000.00}. for a XXXX XXXX XXXX. Called Customer Service XX/XX/XXXX to report this loan as fraudulent. Customer service would not let me talk to anyone in the fraud department and told me I have to I have to go to a branch. I don't understand why I have to take time off of work which I don't get paid for to come to a branch when I didn't take this loan out on this vehicle. This loan was taken out in Michigan and I have never lived outside of Indiana. I feel as if ONB did not do their due diligence at the time of loan and allowed this fraudulent in my name.

Company: NBT BANCORP INC.
State: UNITED STATES MINOR OUTLYING ISLANDS

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 an order was placed to XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1000.00}. After approximately 4 days of no order update I tried to call the merchant. There was no answer and the voicemail stated they do not discuss orders over the phone. I then sent a message through their online contact form. I received no response. I then sent a new message through their XXXX business page. They replied that they do not discuss orders through XXXX. So I used their contact form again but this time was a little more assertive and expressed my discontent. The company then canceled my order and returned only 80 % of the monies paid to them. They told my husband it is a fee kept due to my disgruntled email. They later added this clause to their return policy page. They provided no services whatsoever. It is theft. I have filed a dispute twice through our bank ; NBT Bank with being denied the claim both times as they say the policy is stated on the website which was not there until my husband contacted them about the refund being shorted. The company has no other contact information other than the phone number listed. I am thinking the company is potentially a scam and that they do this as a way to get money. NBT Bank should be protecting its consumers from problems like this. We have used NBT for all of our banking needs for many years and the service has been exceptional until this current issue.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Communication tactics — Frequent or repeated calls
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I have two issues with Portfolio Recovery : 1. When their collectors call my number and ask for me, I confirm and verify that they are speaking with me. However, before giving me a mini-miranda they refuse to discuss the matter they are calling about until I " verify '' further information such as my address, date of birth and social. When I challenge them, they tell me this is required to verify they are speaking to the right person. I remind them that they called my number, asked for me, and I have affirmed they have the right person. That shoud be enough verification to continue with business. Forcing me to give private and sensitive information to continue the call is harassment and a violation of the FDCPA especially prior to any mini-miranda.

2. I have repeatedly disputed the debts in their office with the credit bureaus and with Portfolio recovery. They are unable to prove that I am legally responsible for any of these debts. They just reply with a form letter and a few statements. Nothing that proves I am contractually liable for this debt.

I intend to file and FCRA and FDCPA suit against them in my local courts at my earliest conveince.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I made a phone call to a debt collector that was hired on behalf of XXXX XXXX. My original account with XXXX has been in dispute over my ex wife opening it without my knowledge, this company had told me that for XXXX dollars I can settle the entire debt and that it would delete it from my report. In an attempt to simply put the entire thing behind me I agreed and I paid it. They assured me that Id get a letter in the mail and that no more than 30 days the account would be deleted from my report. I have not gotten any letter nor has it been deleted. This account is roughly one year from the 7 year period meaning it would fall off on its own. When I explained that they then told me to pay less and they would make sure it was deleted. I attached a photo of my payment to them as proof

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Comenity Bank offered/advertised {$120.00} in promotional Sony Rewards credits upon satisfying the terms after opening their credit card. I opened my card in XXXX of 2022 and satisfied the terms in XXXX of 2022. After having not received any information about the promotional credits, I contacted them in XXXX via electronic message and phone to explain to them the issue, and they stated they had opened a ticket. I contacted them again by phone in XXXX and they were not able to provide me with further information other than sharing that they had escalated the issue. The could not provide me with an estimated date of resolution or when I would receive my promotional credits/rewards. I contacted them again in XXXX and they provided me with no further information. After contacting Sony Rewards, they explained the Comenity Bank had an issue with their system that tracked purchases for the purposes of the promotional credit/rewards and that they were working through it. However, it has been months since I have reached out and I still have no further information. Based on this, I feel as though Comenity Bank used bait and switch tactics by advertising promotional rewards and incentives to open a credit card with them and are now not offering the rewards which they advertised and they seem to be making no good faith efforts to provide said promotions.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My husband died on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, Citizens Bank withdrew his XX/XX/XXXX Social Security payment, which was his benefit for the month of XX/XX/XXXX. Apparently, this is common bank practice, but it is wrong. The banks should know that Social Security is always paid for the previous month, not the current month. I had to spend an hour on the phone with Social Security and needed to complete a form to get the money back. However, it will take 2-3 months for that to happen. 

I have a pension and can get by for a few months without this money. However, if a person relies totally on Social Security and this happens to them, after losing his/her spouse, it would create a terrible hardship for them.
