Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is about my credit card. My account was delinquent and my mother contacted the branch instructing them that she wished to repay the balance on her behalf to bring the account current. The payment receipt is attached. That did happen ( XX/XX/2021 ) but the bank also closed the account ( see below ). This was and is a problem as it affected my credit score negatively. This was a secured card and my mother has XXXX on deposit with the bank to secure the card. My credit score is now much lower than it should be due to this event. This impacts my ability to rent an apartment, get insurance etc. We have contacted a person at the bank by phone on multiple occasions and my mother met with them twice at the branch. At the last visit, the person explained that the credit card account was somehow closed in connection with the merger between SunTrust and BB & T ( this company is now called Truist ). She said it appears this happened as part of the system conversion that occurred when the banks combined. She told us that she would forward the information to the merger office and ask that they research it and resolve the issue. We have heard nothing from them and now this person will not return our phone calls.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2022 my husband got a call from Bank of America saying that someone was trying to access our accounts thru XXXX. The number they called from was the same number on the back of the bank card. They " walked '' him thru stopping the transaction. Come to find out it was a scam and they were " spoofing* the phone number. They transferred {$3500.00} out of our personal checking account and {$3500.00} out of our savings. That evening when we figured it out because the checking account went negative over {$2100.00} we call the bank to report it. Then we also called our local Law Enforcement and made a report. The bank advised since it was a scam and not fraud we would not get our money back. The next evening the scammers called back, we hung up. Then we called the bank to let them know. Once again we were told we " probably '' will not be able to recover our money. The representative that answered even read me a script on the difference between scam and fraud. The next day we went to a branch office to talk to them. In their office they had a monitor up and it was showing about how bad XXXX is scamming people. When I pointed it out to the manager he said he sees between XXXX a week. He could not give me an answer on how they transferred money from my checking account that wasn't even there. He had no answers about anything but did advise us we probably won't get our money back also. So now we are out {$7000.00} and need to know our next step. Maybe the Electronic Funds Act.

Complaint narrative:
I requested information from Discover regarding how much of a line of credit I would qualify for with 0 % APR for 15 months, but was unsatisfied with their answer and so never completed an application for a card nor accepted any terms and conditions. 
I was then mailed a card anyway, with a term sheet that said " You accept this Agreement if you do not cancel your Account within 30 days after you received a Card. '' This is predatory and takes advantage of those who may not read their tiny-print terms or have time to cancel a credit card they didn't even want.
