Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally contest the recent closure of my Bank of America account and the withholding of my remaining balance. I have been a long-time customer and have always maintained a responsible banking relationship with your institution. However, my recent experience has been both unjust and distressing. 

XXXX day, I discovered that my online banking access was locked, preventing me from logging in. I immediately contacted customer service to resolve the issue, but my request was denied as my activity was deemed suspicious. I was instructed to visit a branch in person later that day for identity verification. 

Upon further investigation, I realized that my online banking had been compromised by a fraudster who filed multiple fraudulent claims to receive additional credit funds, which they likely intended to transfer out. While I understand and appreciate the banks security measures, I took the initiative to clarify the situation with the bank, explaining that these fraud cases were not legitimate, and I requested that the funds be returned accordingly. 

However, when I visited the branch as instructed, my account was unexpectedly closed without prior notice or the opportunity to provide further clarification. To my dismay, not only was my account closed, but my remaining balancemy legitimately owned fundswas not returned to me. 

This decision was made without proper due process, disregarding the fact that I was the victim of fraudulent activity rather than the perpetrator. As a loyal customer of Bank of America, I find it deeply disappointing that my good standing has been overlooked in favor of an abrupt and unjust closure. 

I formally request that : XXXX. My remaining balance be returned to me immediately. 
XXXX. A thorough review of my case be conducted to recognize that I was the victim of fraud, not the perpetrator. 
XXXX. The possibility of reinstating my banking relationship with Bank of America be considered, as this situation was not caused by any wrongdoing on my part. 

I expect a prompt and fair resolution to this matter. Please provide me with a detailed explanation for the closure and withholding of my funds, as well as the steps I can take to resolve this issue. If necessary, I am prepared to escalate this complaint to relevant consumer protection authorities. 

I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and look forward to your response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I was very surprised and disappointed to discover unauthorized credit inquiries and incorrect personal information made without my knowledge or approval. Despite my efforts to obtain clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to give the requested information. I am demanding fast action and willingness from the creditors. Creditors must disclose full information about each inquiry, such as the dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, as well as applicable application paperwork and evidence of explicit authorization. Please see the attached documents for my complaint!

Product: Debt collection — Rental debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: HW Holding, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX for improper handling of a disputed debt and unfair credit reporting practices. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I disputed a {$2900.00} charge for XXXX rent at a property managed by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA ). I vacated the unit in XX/XX/XXXX and did not reside there in XXXX. Despite my formal dispute, XXXX sent the account to collections with XXXX XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX first contacted me in XX/XX/XXXX. I disputed the debt again directly with XXXX XXXX. I provided proof that I was not living in the unit in XXXX, including my new lease and documentation of my move. Despite this, XXXX XXXX repeatedly failed to respond to my dispute emails. Instead, they demanded phone contact and ultimately hung up on me during a call on XX/XX/XXXX. They provided no advance notice before reporting this debt to the credit bureaus, and I was alerted to a major derogatory mark by my bank on XX/XX/XXXX. They offered me a 25 % settlement offer during a call with XXXX XXXX. 

I requested written confirmation of a " pay-for-delete '' arrangement, along with a 25 % settlement offer discussed during a call with XXXX XXXX. To date, I have not received this agreement for the 25 % off and the pay-for-delete in writing, which prevents me from formalizing any payment. Without clear terms documented, this violates standard consumer protections and leaves me unable to resolve the issue. 

Additionally, under California Civil Code 1951.2, XXXX XXXX had a legal obligation to mitigate damages by making reasonable efforts to re-rent the unit after I vacated. Neither XXXX nor XXXX XXXX has provided any evidence of such efforts, yet they are holding me responsible for XXXX rent. 

Finally, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), debt collectors are required to mark debts as " disputed '' once a formal dispute is filed. It remains unclear whether XXXX XXXX properly updated my account status with the credit bureaus to reflect this dispute.
