Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have been with TD bank for over nine years and have personal and business direct account with them. This was regarding by business account. I own a laundromat and that is a cash business, I deposit over {$12000.00} a moth in this account and TD bank charges a fee if it supposed {$10000.00}. One of the bank employees offered to help me set up my account so I avoid that fee. 
She had made a mistake how she set my account, she has set up my account that I should have {$40000.00} in my account minimum ( which is how much a receive from my business in the whole year )!! 

As a result of this, I have been charged maintenance fee of {$30.00} a month for 15 months. From XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. 

When I brought this to the attention of the bank manager XXXX he admitted that they made a mistake BUT because I took so long to notice their error he was ONLY going to refund HALF of my money! They charged me over {$450.00} and only gave me back half. I filed a complained to TD bank customer service and did not get enywhere the manager only returned half. I think it is completely UNETHCAL for TD Bank to get paid for the mistake they did on my account and they should not be paid for it! 
I would like a full refund and my my account restated the way it way before it was tampered with ( at {$500.00} minimum at my account which was their promotional offer when I opened an account with them! 
After it was tampered with I have lost this promotion and now I have to minimum of {$1500.00} on my account ).

Company: SUN WEST MORTGAGE COMPANY, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have a XXXX mortgage from Sun West Mortgage Company. After the repairs were completed, Sun West Mortgage Company sent me my monthly statement XX/XX/XXXX for my upcoming XXXX 2016 mortgage payment. The statement showed the unused funds were applied to my bill and I still will have a remaining credit for about half a month worth of mortgage. The statement clearly indicated under please pay amount that it was a negative ( credit ) amount. Because of that monthly statement, I rearrange my finances to cover things I normally did not have room in my budget. On XXXX XXXX, 2016 Sun West Mortgage sent me an email saying I did not make mortgage payment before the end of the grace period ( XXXX XXXX ). I contacted Sun West and they stated it does not matter what they sent to me and pay my bill. They refuse to admit fault. They bombarded me with a lot of phone calls and had someone visit my home twice to instruct me to pay. Sun West stated that the credit is correct, but they applied it to principle. This may or may not be standard practice, but the monthly statement did not reflect that. I find Sun West practices to be misleading, inappropriate, harassing, and intimidating. Still, no one has apologize to me for the mix up.

Complaint narrative:
My auto loan has showed up on my credit report from XXXX. This was a loan that was payed off in full by my insurance company " XXXX '' because my husband was in a car accident that resulted in a total loss. My insurance company paid what TDBANK said was a full payment for the vehicle before XXXX/XXXX/2012. TD Bank is reporting on my credit that there was {$290.00} owed and finally charged off. I received NO information about this or would have realized this sooner. This is greatly impacting my credit report because it was an auto loan. It 's fraudulent. I called TDBANK about it yesterday XXXX and they said I would have to contact you and file a complaint and have you investigate it. I sure wish I had realized it was on my credit report years ago!

Complaint narrative:
In 2011 we refinanced our home with TD Bank. They paid off the old mortgage company loans we had with XXXX and I have proof of satisfaction from XXXX. Recently we started a VA loan refinance but a few day before closing the new mortgage company informed us that TD Bank never filed the deed with the city of DC so they can not close until TD Bank fixes the original loan and files it with the city. When I call TD Bank I can not get any answers as to why the TD Bank refinance did not close with a Deed filed. We are now past our lock date with the new company and we had a really good interest rate VA load approved. I can not seem to get to anyone high enough at TD Bank to fix the problem so we can continue our current plans and the longer it take the more money it 's costing us due to TD Bank 's original error in 2011.

Complaint narrative:
My husband and I are XXXX and we recently had an issue with our mortgage payment. While we had been overpaying our mortgage for the last 2 years, a change in the monthly escrow payment in XX/XX/XXXX resulted in an underpayment situation. While we were paying our mortgage payment each month, we were slightly off ( XXXX-XXXX USD ), and as a result our credit report now reflects two 30 day late payments. To be clear, we sent our mortgage payment each month, but because it was not the right amount TD Bank marked us as late until they received the next month 's payment to apply the additional {$20.00} needed. TD Bank sent notifications of the change in escrow, not to the right address. From talking to two separate TD Bank reps I understand in our account notes it shows a long history of returned mail since XX/XX/2016. Despite this mail being returned TD Bank did not call our telephone numbers on file or email us. Since initiating the dispute I looked at my account online and found I HAD updated our address online, but TD Bank required I send this request in formal writing. I did not see that request in my online account message board. 

In the attached paperwork you will see we requested TD Bank remove the two 30 day late records- based on the mail issue, the fact we were sending in payments on time, just the wrong amount, and our history of timely payments that were in fact over-payments, vice under. We also attached XXXX ( like XXXX ) explaining we are XXXX, which helps to explain why we were n't getting the mail. This is an important issue to us, as our credit scores had been XXXX, and now they have dropped significantly. 

Depite all this paper work TD Bank refused to remove the two 30 day late notices. I believe they should remove these notices as : we had updated our address online, but their system did not reflect same ; we had a positive overpayment history with this mortgage ; and TD Bank made NO EFFORT to contact us via the valid telephone numbers and email addresses online, dispite getting all correspondence returned to them. 
We appreciate your attention in this matter. Please advise if you need any other information from me. Regards, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX i received a charge on my account form XXXX ( furniture rental ) for XXXX that was not valid. i filed a dispute that they stated would take up to 10 business days. they came stating i needed to provide documentation that this charge was not valid. but did not ask the vendor to provide documentation that it was.!!! of course they bounced everything in the account that would have been more than covered if the unauthorized charge was not there! the manager at the branch allowed me to withdraw cash pending dispute resolution which i appreciated or else i would not have been able to buy gas or food .. when i called about it i was hung up on by a rude rep who got upset when i asked to speak to a supervisor. This dispute is not being handled correctly or fairly because the bank does not want to refund XXXX in fees. 
then on XXXX/XXXX/15 and XXXX/XXXX/15 i was charged XXXX in fees because of the way the bank posted the payments they bounced out charges for XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX to be able to charge the XXXX per day max -- then did it again on XX/XX/XXXX i spoke to a supervisor on XXXX/XXXX/15 who told me the the end of the business day is XXXX so slot of what they charged me fees for technically posted before the end of friday 's business day!!!! the way they handled those fees was underhanded! i asked for documentation for the charges to dispute the fees and was met with resistance. i want documentation about those charges and posting since i am not ok with paying XXXX in additional fees when at most i should have paid XXXX possibly XXXX. Also when i filed a dispute the last time i had a problem with the bank i was told each office has a budget for fee refunds and it took almost 2 weeks to get the refunds i was due since they has to go to other offices who had more money in their budgets for fees.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is absolutely ridiculous if the bank is wrong and a refund is owed then pay it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they should not be able to limit how many funds they refund if the BANK IS IN THE WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would also like to know the legality of that policy as well. i want the dispute handled the correct way

Complaint narrative:
This relates to Target Credit. As stated above our house burned and I do not havve my records but, Target should because we dealt with only XXXX man. The issue was over XXXX fraudulent charged to our Target Card.and was resolved with the removal of the XXXX and we paid account as agreed. The XXXX Credit report shows the matter under " Adverse Accounts '' but I can not understand what was reported but, the settlement was not. Then XXXX reported that a company called " XXXX XXXX was reporting a collection matter with XXXX Target XXXX with an amount of {$3000.00} but, we have never talked or had any communication with this company. The {$3000.00} was the fraud amount that Target said was charged off. There is no address or phone for this company. I think Target should do what they ageed to to and remove this from my Credit Report. It is unfortunate that the fire and burning of our house on XX/XX/2015 took all my records. I am complaining about the difference of the XXXX reports and the information contained in the reports.

Complaint narrative:
The Target Store credit card provides 5 % discount at point of sale, so if I bought something for {$100.00}, I would be charged {$95.00} only. If I returned the item to Target, they would refund me back {$95.00} only as that is all I paid. 
However, if you look at the attached receipts and calculate, you 'll notice a lower refund amount in each if you calculate the 5 % difference. So, in the case of the first receipt on the left, the amount of item was {$4.00}, the refund back to me should have been around {$4.00} cents. Instead, Target kept back XXXX cents and returned me {$4.00} only. 
This small STEALING is inappropriate and I tried for a long time by emailing or speaking with Target to no avail. This is not just deceptive and abusive, it is literally STEALING. I am a regular customer at Target and do n't know how long this issue has been going on, as also with other customers. I should just file a class action against Target and TD Bank USA.

Complaint narrative:
Loan was originally taken out in XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX XXXX for {$8000.00}. XXXX was taken over by Greentree. They hold title to XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have been making payments on this loan for 11 years & the balance is still {$7100.00}. I have missed payments along the way due to unemployment & health issues. 
I believe they are charging me interest on interest, have tried several times to come to an agreement with them & they refuse. Have told them they can come get the car, they say they do n't want it. I feel this loan has been more than paid for. My only recourse at this point is to file bankruptcy as I ca n't continue to make payments on this loan. I 've also considered seeking an attorney to see if there is any legal recourse I can take against the company. I feel Greentree has unscrupulous loan practices. They have made XXXX of dollars off this loan.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Through this complaint, I request that CFPB staff review the action taken by TD Bank in denying my Reg E-covered unauthorized withdrawal claim. I opened an XXXX account for my minor daughter so that she would have access to limited funds on a debit card. The card and the account were used sparingly. When my daughter attempted to make a teller cash withdrawal on XXXX XXXX, 2015, she and I were advised by bank staff that our account was overdrawn in the amount of {$1800.00}. We subsequently learned that my daughter was unaware that she had lost the debit card and that XXXX counterfeit checks were deposited to the account. Whomever perpetrated this fraud capitalized on the fact that immediate credit was provided by TD at the time of deposit. ATM withdrawals were then executed against the account over a 12 day span. Once we were aware that the card had been lost and the account compromised, we filed an unauthorized electronic transaction claim with TD. At the request of bank investigator 's, a police report was filed with the XXXX XXXX Police Department. 

In explicably, TD Bank has denied our claim, citing as the basis for its decision, the fact that no additional transactions were attempted after the checks deposited were returned as counterfeits and because the transactions were consistent with our normal usage pattern. XXXX 's actions in this matter are a flagrant violation of Reg E and raise a question as to whether it 's policies in this area are in conformance with the requirements of the regulation. How many other consumers have been unfairly treated as my daughter and I have been? 

I want to emphasize that the unauthorized transactions were all conducted in XXXX, NJ. My daughter and I reside in XXXX, XXXX, New York. Neither of us has ever recorded a bank transaction in XXXX, nor did we transact in the amounts and frequency noted for the fraudulent transactions. Moreover, there is no significance of the fact that unauthorized activity on the account ceased after there were no longer available funds. 

Reg E requires that a financial institution have evidence that a covered transaction or transactions which form the basis of a consumer claim were not unauthorized if it is to deny the call for reimbursement. TD Bank has no such evidence and the inaccurate and absurd reasons it offers to unlawfully deny my claim is behavior that warrants an examination by the CFPB.

Complaint narrative:
I am a XXXX who was looking for a job on my university 's job net and I came across a job that seemed legit. Therefore I applied for the job by sending my resume to the email on the page and I heard back from him two days later. He had my information from my resume and mailed me a check and told me to deposit it into my checking account and to let him know when the funds cleared. As a college student seeking a job to support myself, I went ahead and did so. However, something told me to go into TD location and speak with someone to see why the fund was taking so long to clear. They told me the check was fraudulent. That is when I reached out to the person and they began ignoring my calls. TD bank made {$100.00} available and I withdrew that. I was a new customer as of XX/XX/2017 so I was unaware that TD bank even did that. Due to this bounced check that this person sent to me I now owe TD Bank {$150.00} for an overdraft. However, when I opened this account I told the lady that worked with me that I wanted to be protected from overdrafts and she obviously was not listening and did otherwise. I filed a police report and spoke with district attorney and they both told me there is no reason why TD bank can not waive these fee 's and found it more inconsiderate that I am a student who is not working and can not afford to pay this fee. I went into a TD location on XX/XX/2017 and the teller told me I am still responsible so I went in again on XX/XX/2017 and the manager told me the same thing.

Complaint narrative:
My bank, TD Bank, keeps holding my paychecks until the end of the next business day and charging me {$35.00} for any debit to my account that is n't covered because they are holding my check. For example, this past week, I deposited my paycheck of {$2300.00} on Saturday, and it cleared and was credited on Monday, making my balance {$2700.00}. My rent check for {$1000.00} also hit the bank and cleared on Monday, as did a loan payment of {$300.00} to my mother. However, the bank charged me {$70.00} - XXXX overdraft charges of {$35.00} each - saying the rent and loan payments hit the bank before the paycheck was credited. I believe this is illegal, or at the very least, dishonest and predatory. I would like them to credit me with the {$70.00} - and with the {$35.00} they charged me last pay period for the same nonsense - and stop doing this.

Complaint narrative:
I received a letter from TD Retail Card Services dated XXXX/XXXX/15 stating that my account is past due and to promptly send my total payment due. I call TD Retail customer service to inquire about my late charges, as I have never missed a payment. In short, they stated that I made XXXX separate payments in XXXX reflecting as a combined payment, rather than posting separately for XXXX and XXXX. The supervisor stated that I have to make payments monthly after the XXXX and before the XXXX of the preceding month to prevent XXXX posting to the same month and reflecting no payment for the next. Here is the sequence of events : XXXX paid, XXXX posted. XXXX paid, XXXX posted. XXXX paid, XXXX {$25.00} late fee, XXXX posted. XXXX paid, XXXX {$35.00} late fee, XXXX posted. Amount currently due : {$98.00} ( {$60.00} late fees ). This institution refuses to reverse adverse charges and to reinstate my account to current status reflecting 0.00 % for remaining balance owed. I have made all payments either on time or early, and this financial institution wishes to punish me for being a responsible consumer. Additionally, this unfortunately changes the terms of agreement from XXXX months with no interest to 29.99 %. This poor customer service is having a negative reflection on my current account and credit report, as this company is showing my account as late or not current.
