Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity the

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a Bank of America credit card 10 years ago. Recently, as I hadnt used the card in a while, I logged into my online banking to find that the card had been closed in XXXX. However, I had more than {$400.00} in cash rewards in the account, and now I cant redeem it. I have several questions regarding this situation.

1. I have been a Bank of America customer for over 10 years. Besides this credit card, I also have a checking account and a savings account with Bank of America. While I havent used the credit card, I have been using the same login ID to access my credit card, checking, and savings accounts, so I believe I have shown consistent account activity. Therefore, they shouldnt have closed my credit card. If they determine account activity by looking only at specific accounts, they should clearly separate the credit card account, allowing me to create a different login ID for it.

2. When I applied for this credit card, they stated that the rewards would never expire. But now the money no longer exists in my account. This is misleading to consumers in my opinion.

3. The cash reward is actual cash, not points, so removing this money without my authorization could be considered theft.

4. If I didnt redeem this money in time, since its cash, it should have been escheated ; its impossible for this money to just disappear from my account without reason. I should have the option to contact the state government to claim it, but they didnt give me this optionthey just told me its gone.

5. When I inquired about where my money went, they told me it returned to the bank. I dont understand what law allows them to take my money back into the bank. Will this money show up in their annual audit report?

6. Ive called them three times. Each time, I received different answers. The first time, they simply said no without any explanation. During the second call, they filed a case for me, saying I would receive a response within two weeks. It has now been three weeks, and I havent received any reply. On the last call, they just transferred me between departments without trying to resolve my issue, and each call lasted over 30 minutes.
