Consumer Complaint: Hello my name is XXXX XXXX and this is the second CFPB complaint I have had to file about the same issue that Navy Federal keeps telling me for 3 years has been resolved. I am not wasting my time telling the entire story again- please read the prior complaint I have attached and see two documents. Due to having spoken to numerous reps for the past 3 years and no one seeming to be on the same page, I am corresponding here to make sure this is handled properly. Someone called after the last complaint and assured things would be handled and here we go again a year later. Navy Federal needs a much better system of accountability in their auto titles department instead of sending out threatening letters out of the blue with no context. Use the Navy Federal portal to communicate with members specifically and notes should be in the system so employees can read the backstory so they know how to communicate with members.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem making or receiving payments

Consumer Complaint: I have been calling NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION since XXXX attempting to speak to the securities department so that I can have access to my account be restored to me. After about the 7th time calling I finally got someone from the XXXX XXXX XXXX to speak with me. His name was XXXX XXXX XXXX and he called me from the number XXXX. When I answered Fiduciary Agent XXXX of the night securities team lied on me and told me that I am harassing NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION then threatened to block me from calling if I continued to call the company seeking assistance for this matter. That is a defamation of character and a deprivation of my federally protected rights as a federally protected consumer. Then XXXX Hung Up on Me without trying to assist me. I CALLED BACK and was transferred back to XXXX the night securities fiduciary agent again. I explained to him that I filed a complaint with the FTC complaint number # XXXX and that I am attempting to handle business with NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION the CORPORATION. I tried to explain to him that I called NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION because my account has been flagged for suspicious activity wrongfully and that the fiduciary agents of the securities team did not obtain permission from me to act as my guardian and that I need access to my account restored immediately. He TOLD ME THAT I AM NOT TRYING TO HANDLE BUSINESS even though I explained earlier to other fiduciary agents that I NEED MY ACCOUNT TO BE RESTORED IMMEDIATELY SO I CAN COMMENCE TO HANDLE BUSINESS ONLINE AND CHECK MY ACCOUNTS AND SEE WHAT TOOLS I CAN USE ON THE NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION ONLINE BANKING APP THAT WILL GIVE ME THE ABILITY OF MAKING SMART DECISIONS WITH MY NEWLY ACQUIRED FUNDS. Instead of helping me he OBSCENELY hung up the phone again on me. Causing great mental anguish, anxiety and many other actual damages. All are equal under the law. In commerce, truth is sovereign. A matter must be expressed to be resolved. I can not sign away my rights. The Federal Government did not create guidelines for corporations to abide by. The Federal Government created Codes and Statutes that are based on the LAW which must be adhered to. The Official Misconduct of the fiduciary agents of NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION have caused me many actual damages. Deceptis, non decipientibus, jura subveniunt. THE LAWS HELP PERSONS WHO ARE DECEIVED, NOT THOSE DECEIVING. As beneficiary of the XXXX XXXX XXXX, Estate I have not received any benefit from the actions of the Fiduciary agents and demand to be treated with respect. There is abundant evidence that NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNIONs FIDUCIARIES have ill will towards me and have knowingly and willingly discriminated against me because of my race and financial status. PLEASE HELP. Note 1 : I, XXXX : Small, Beneficiary wrote this complaint and the affidavit of truth and facts and the complaint to the FTC MYSELF XXXX I am of the age of Majority and not a minor. Note 2 : With this complaint I will also attached the Affidavit of Truth and Facts which covers the subjects of Credit Cards, Credit Instruments, Commercial Instruments, Creditors, Card Holders, Original Creditor, Original Card Holder and my complaint that I filed with the FTC. Note 3 : I opened my bank account without prejudice, with honor, in good faith, and with clean hands. Note 4 : I have provided proof of the lawful commercial instrument that has been created by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Beneficiary and payed to the order of me Note 5 : I have provided proof of the lawful commercial instrument that I created and paid to the order of XXXX XXXX XXXX, Beneficiary . Note 6 : I already sent NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION the affidavit of truth and facts supporting my acts notarized, dated with a time, autographed with my beneficiary signature, stamped with executor 's seal, and with a witness signature via Certified Return Receipt Mail XXXX XXXX

Subissue: Other problem

Consumer Complaint: I called the Navy Federal Credit collection department to request a 1099-C form for a debt that was charged off on my credit card account. Unfortunately, my circumstances have led me to experience significant financial hardship and medical issues, which has made it difficult for me to pay my debts on time. I asked them in the hopes that they can provide me with the necessary documentation for tax purposes. ( 1099C ) I explain to them our i have been struggling with financial hardship, such as job loss, medical bills and other unforeseen expenses. Despite my best efforts, I have not been able to make timely payments on my account, and the account was charged off as a result. This has been a difficult time for me, and I am doing everything in my power to manage my finances and improve my situation. But they refuse to provide me with a 1099c despite the changed off is on my credit account.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low

Subissue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Consumer Complaint: I have never contacted my bank before in which is Navy Federal a credit Union. Ive never contacted them about funds being stolen from my account. In which it has happened before but the XXXX app the person tried to use was able to block the charges. No help to my bank. I live in a small area and I dont travel. I work 7 days a week and I can travel out of town. My cards was stolen on top of my cell phone on which had apps the had my contact information and some card information stored on the phone. I notice XXXX $ was taken out of my card in numerous ways via stores and XXXX purchases. In which I dont se XXXX to make up {$900.00} worth of purchases. Im a routine person. Navy federal told me they are taking my provisional credit back because its normal activity for me and that is just not true. This bank does not do a thorough investigation and will loose a lot of consumers if we cant even trust them to secure our funds! Im a single mother I just got my taxes and spent it all to pull myself out of the hole I was in and I placed {$1200.00} to the side to go on top of my work checks so me and my kids will never be in a bind again! But now someone stealing my information and cards me contacting navy federal to let them no whats going on only for them to do absolutely nothing is the most disheartening thing ever what about protecting your consumers. At this point I wan to find another bank that can promise to secure my account. The charges should have looked suspicious to the bank and they should have blocked those charges mid transaction because its out of the ordinary for me.
