Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I funded a high yield savings account on XX/XX/XXXX through BMO Alto. The amount I funded was {$5900.00}. I then about a week and a half later on XX/XX/XXXX tried to pull {$3000.00} back into my linked checking account for personal reasons. XXXX then froze my account because of potential fraud and I was prompted to reset my password to get back into the account. After resetting my password I was not allowed access back into my account. I was also prompted to provide documentation at this time to try and reverse the freeze but was not allowed back into my account to try to provide this documentation. I gave it some time to see if this was just a possible glitch and I could sign back in later. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I called customer service to try to get back into my account and they gave me the number to call the fraud department which was not open on the day. The following day on XX/XX/XXXX I get an email that my account is now closed. I call customer service back and they see that my account did in fact close and that I would see my funds transferred back into my linked checking account. It now becomes Friday XX/XX/XXXX and my funds had still not been transferred back to my personal checking account. I then call the fraud department and explain the situation and they tell me that I am no longer considered a customer with XXXX  and I would not have access to my money that was promised to be transferred back to me. They said if I think I need to be compensated that I should contact my bank that I used to fund the account to get any money back.

Complaint narrative:
Since XX/XX/XXXX I have contacted Barclay Fraud service by phone and with letters. I've asked them to send me a copy of the fraudulent application for a XXXX  credit card. They told me to send a letter asking for the application and to include copies of photo ID, so number, my address etc. I did this XXXX weeks ago. I called Barclay again today to hear that my case wasn't in the system. The case number is ID XXXX. I don't understand why they won't provide this as it is necessary to have this proof to take to the police for an identity theft report. It's been a month. Help. Thanks

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Against CarMax Auto Finance Regarding Fraudulent Account and Identity Theft Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a formal complaint against CarMax Auto Finance concerning a fraudulent vehicle purchase made in my name as a result of identity theft that occurred in XX/XX/XXXX. A vehicle was purchased using my social security number and date of birth ; however, the name on the contract was incorrectly spelled, indicating that this was not a legitimate transaction. 

Despite my attempts to resolve this matter directly with CarMax Auto Finance, they have failed to properly address the issue. They provided me with a so-called " original signed contract, '' which lists an address at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX address with which I have never been associated. Furthermore, all related documents were sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, another address I have no connection to. 

I have already filed a police report regarding this fraudulent activity. 

In addition to these discrepancies, CarMax Auto Finance is currently reporting a balance of {$22000.00} to all three credit bureaus. However, I received a document from them titled " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  '' stating an amount of {$21000.00}, with additional finance charges and interest of {$520.00}, bringing the total deficiency to {$22000.00}. These inconsistencies violate my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Given the errors and CarMax Auto Finance 's failure to properly verify my identity, I am demanding that this fraudulent tradeline be immediately removed from my credit report. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to your assistance in resolving this issue. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

The reason for this, is to dispute all XXXX unauthorized inquiries on my credit report. 

XXXX XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX  Date of inquiry XX/XX/XXXX To my knowledge, I have not signed any documents authorizing your organization to view my credit history. Therefore, your inquiries into my credit report violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681b ( a ) : Permissible Purposes of Consumer Reports as well as Section 1681b ( c ) : Transactions Not Initiated by Consumer. 
If you are in possession of any documentation bearing my signature that you believe authorizes you or your organization to make inquiries into my credit report, I respectfully request a copy be sent to my address listed above. 
For the sake of clarity, I will not accept any documentation that does not bear my signature authorizing you to make an inquiry into my credit file. Otherwise, anyone having stolen my identity could be behind this unauthorized inquiry. And YOU would be in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 
Assuming you do not possess such credit report inquiry authorization, I request that you remove the unauthorized inquiry from my credit report ( XXXX ). I also request that you remove all of my personal information from your records and send me confirmation that you have complied with my request.
