I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Crddit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when the trans action was authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal Credit Union for similar practices, where transactions were settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address my concerns regarding XXXX handling of disputes, especially in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit that has brought significant issues with the platform to light. Despite frequently using Zelle and reporting transaction discrepancies, both my financial institution and Zelle failed to conduct a thorough investigation into my claims. I was informed that recovering lost funds was not possible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPBs findings reveal that Zelle has not only failed to protect its users but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the platform, leaving consumers vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is deeply troubling and raises serious questions about the safety of users on Zelle.

Complaint narrative:
Direct deposit paycheck deposited by employer ( confirmed ) shouldve been accessible to me on Wednesday. But when calling capital one Wednesday evening, the agent said they did not see any deposit pending on the back end and to check with my employer. He also acknowledged that they had just been notified of an ACH problem.

Now it is Friday, Ive obviously read the news and still dont have my deposit. The FIRST communication I received from capital one regarding the issue was at XXXX XXXX. No transparency, definitely not looking out for my interests. Had they notified me before Id even noticed, at the onset of the issue, which they surely realized before I did, my confidence in my bank wouldve been retained. The complete radio silence while thousands of their hard working customers struggle to figure out why they didnt get paid is completely lost on me. 

They need to be accountable for withholding funds as well as any unprocessed payments and fees as a result, and for the stress they have caused so many. This is completely unacceptable.
