Consumer complaint received 2025-12-29 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> my Wells Fargo credit card was charged {$650.00} for a purchase that I did not make and a vendor that I do not recognize. At the time of the charge, I was attending a XXXX  and had my wallet with my credit cards in my back pocket. I had XXXX other credit cards ( XXXX total ). After the XXXX, I noticed that the same charge had been attempted on all XXXX cards. XXXX of the cards blocked the transaction, and XXXX allowed the transaction to go through. XXXX of the cards that did not allow the charge was also a Wells Fargo card and the other was from XXXX. 

I called Wells Fargo the next morning, and informed them of the fraudulent charge and a claim was opened. Wells Fargo denied the claim stating that because I still had possession of the card, then it wasn't fraud. Since then, I have reopened multiple ( 4? ) claims and each one has been denied for the same reason. One of the representatives I spoke with told me to fax in information proving I was not at the vendor at the time of the charge. I uploaded pictures of the XXXX  tickets, the XXXX receipt from the fraud vendor showing the charge occurred at a time I was at the concert, pictures with time stamps from my time at the concert, screenshot of drinks being purchased at the concert with the other Wells Fargo credit card, and a XXXX XXXX  screenshot showing the vendor appears to be a private residence over XXXX minutes from the XXXX  location. 

Even with this evidence, they denied the claim again for the same reason. I tried to offer a theory of " digital pickpocketing '' which can easily be searched online to where someone can place a card reader against your pocket and put a charge through, which could explain why all XXXX cards were charged at the same time. However this seems to fall on deaf ears, and any other possible explanation I have tried to provide. My wife is also an authorized user and has her own card, and was at home that night with my son. They asked if it was her card and I told them no, for the reason she never left the house, and that it wouldn't make sense because my other XXXX cards were charged as well and that they could look this up since one of the other cards was also a Wells Fargo card.

State: NC

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. ''

Complaint narrative:
In the process of moving I lost both my cell phone and laptop. All my passwords to my accounts were in my cell phone and laptop. I was unable to recover them. Now I can no longer get into a lot of my accounts. 
Without the verification from the multi-factor verification from my email and my cell phone I'm unable to ever log into my credit reports again. I did have it fixed with one of the companies but two of the companies I can't get it fixed with. 
This is causing me all sorts of problems with wanting to take out a mortgage and take out a car loan. I don't know how to solve the problem. Without being able to talk to human being I can't prove my identity. 
The only thing I get is an automated machine. I never get to talk to a human.
