Company: COLUMBIA BANKING SYSTEM, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Hello -- I awoke yesterday with a near-XXXX balance in my Umpqua Bank account , after I'd just received a generous loan from a friend to help keep me afloat after numerous devastating hardships, including, but not limited to : -- being defrauded by my best friend and tax accountant for my entire life savings, -- the Pandemic hitting just as I was starting to re-build, -- losing supportive parents & grandparents plus -- fires and extreme weather devastating my rebuilding efforts. 

This complaint is not about the {$470.00} funds removed ( in error by another entity ) from my account, but for the -- Umpqua 's lack of notice and the -- EXORBITANT FEE of {$120.00}!! ( 26.3 %!!! ) charged against my account by Umpqua Bank for the dis-privilege of giving my extremely hard-earned {$470.00} to an external entity. 

I was told by the external entity who received my {$470.00} ( without prior notice, sadly -- another miscarriage of justice ) that " most banks do not charge fees '' to send them funds, and that I had to get the fees charged by Umpqua reversed by Umpqua. 

Spent over an hour on the phone at XXXX with XXXX, a lovely guy who I believe genuinely wanted to help, and his supervisor, XXXX, who both put me on hold 3x total to talk to XXXX and 2 others in the " Operations Legal '' department. 

I was told the {$120.00} fee was indeed an Umpqua fee, an Umpqua policy was non-negotiable, and one of the fees that they had zero power to change. 

So I've devastatingly donated {$120.00} plus many extraordinarily-more-valuable hours to Umpqua profits for the privilege of inadvertently paying another entity {$470.00} I do not owe. 

This has occurred at a time when I have XXXX income due to extreme hardships ( many of which others are experiencing at a more critical level than I. ) Clearly, we are suffering immeasurably from an extreme lack of oversight of our financial institutions and their general abuse of customers across-the-board. 

In a quest for profits and shareholder enrichment, we have created sociopathic systems. 

Fortunately, we are starting to recognize this societal destruction, and have the power to change it, something I'm passionately committed to, hence my wasting hours of valuable time to make entities aware of their abusive practices.

Complaint narrative:
I reached out to these companies via the credit bureaus and I haven't heard a response back in over 90 days. I feel like I'm being ignored and punished for something that is completely out of my control. I demand that this incorrect, inaccurate and unverifiable information be deleted from my report. Over 90 days with no response is ridiculous. Why put someone through the ringer whose actually trying to get to the bottom of this?

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
The following accounts were charged off. Upon reviewing my current credit report, the accounts have been repeatedly updated as a charge off every month. My understanding is that charge offs should not have an active payment history. This is not legal as it unfairly manipulates the statue of limitations. Ive disputed this multiple times with XXXX and Equifax and they have not responded nor removed the accounts. One account in particular XXXX I paid it off but then in XXXX of XXXX they updated the account by adding late payments made in XXXX which dramatically reduced my credit score. The account was closed but when I sent them a dispute letter they added late payments from XXXX. XXXX should not have went in a closed/paid off account and added late payments from XXXX. 
I am requesting that the following accounts be deleted immediately : XXXX Acct # XXXX XXXX Acct # XXXX XXXX  XXXX Acct # XXXX XXXX Acct # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct # XXXX

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX an electronic letter was sent from XXXX through my online banking for an account that was in the negative - {$4.00} ( Ending in XXXX ). In the electronic letter the bank mentioned the account was ultimately closed in XX/XX/XXXX due to the account being in the negative. However, I was not aware of the status of my account until XX/XX/XXXX when I tried to log into my account and viewed the letter. In XX/XX/XXXX, I tried to open an account with another bank and I was denied due to critical information that was being flagged on my consumer reports. I am unable to open any other accounts with banks that I have applied to, which tells me there must be some critical information on there that will not allow me to do banking with any other banks. XXXX is the only bank that I have ever worked with and had a great relationship with until my account closed. The only incident that I can think of that could be tied to this was back in XX/XX/XXXX a company by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX sent a check to me under their financial services check system however, XXXX updated that check as invalid. I then contacted that company and expressed my concern, and I was told that some of the information was incorrect on the check and that another check would be sent out, which they did send back out and I tried to cash that check but once again the bank updated it as invalid. After that incident I chose to no longer communicate with this company due to this company invalid check activity on their part. The account was put in the negative because of this company 's actions, which was out of my control. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX bears responsibility for this. I am requesting for XXXX to remove any negative flags on my account if there is any in regard to this account as I was not notified previously if the account was being closed for any other reason, otherwise I would have disputed it and provided any information requested. I am also requesting for Early Warning Services to also remove any negative flags on my account in regard to this account and also send a copy of my report. This is causing an extreme hardship since I can not have any direct deposits/paychecks at this time.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute a promotion that was denied. I have included that dispute resolution letter for your reference. I was denied because the Citi Priority Account package is not eligible under this promotion. 

In XX/XX/XXXX, I was targeted on my Citibank app with this promotion to open a Citi Accelerate Savings Account. I have included a copy of the promotion screenshot from my phone. In the screenshot, you can see that there is no mention of Access Account or Priority Account. It simply says : 1 ) Open a new eligible Citi Accelerate Online Savings Account during the offer period XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. In accordance with the promotion instructions, I deposited over {$50000.00} of New-to-Citibank funds into the new account, and then I maintained over {$50000.00} balance in the new account for an additional 60 consecutive calendar days. 

Let me reiterate that I was TARGETED with this promotion on my app ; I simply responded to this targeting. I acted in accordance with the instructions from the promotion, as my screenshot provides sufficient proof. I believe that I should have qualified for this promotion. Citibank owes me a {$450.00} cash bonus.
