RE : XXXX XXXX It is crucial that consumer reporting agencies uphold their grave responsibilities when it comes to the handling of consumers personal credit files. After performing a re-investigation upon my credit file for account XXXX XXXXpursuant to 15 USC 1681ia1a, your company failed to follow proper procedures in regard to correspondence to me the consumer, in the handling of the reinvestigation. As clearly outlined within, 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ) ; 15 U.S. Code 1681i - Procedure in case of disputed accuracy Subchapter 7 states the following ; ( 7 ) Description of reinvestigation procedure A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a detailed description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Ive had a bank account with them for about two months and every single time I call in I have to visit a branch because they cant send a code to my phone number and every time I call through the app XXXX doesnt verify me. Im logged into the Bank of America app and every time they try to send a notification I keep telling them theres a technical problem on there and Im not receiving the notification. They just dont care. I have to go into a branch for the simplest things every single time I need help with my account and Im so over it to anyone who wants a Bank of America account. Please go after a different bank give your money to a different bank. The representatives are helpless. Everyone at this bank are so useless. Please just get a bank that actually cares about you. This bank does not care because it wouldve been fixed a long time ago. I went in a month ago, sat down with the banker to verify all my information to avoid all this and it is still happening. Avoid Bank of America at all cost.

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On several occasions between XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>, I mistakenly sent funds totaling {$3000.00} via Zelle to an unknown recipient as a result of a phone scam. My personal and banking information was fraudulently obtained by someone impersonating a service representative. I reported the transactions to XXXXXXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year> under claim reference # XXXX, but my claim was denied. XXXX informed me that Zelles policies do not allow for recovery of funds once a transaction is completed, even in cases of fraud or error. 

The lack of recourse for recovering funds through Zelle has left me financially harmed, and the denial of my claim by XXXX has further compounded my frustration. I believe Zelles policies do not sufficiently protect users from fraud or unauthorized transactions, and I was not adequately informed of these limitations when using the service.
