I explained in detail that my daughter which is XXXX was applying for the loan on her own but the representative insisted it wasn't anything they could do. I advised the representative that I am currently in process of a refinance on my home and I can't have any non valid inquiries on my credit.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: I received notice that my bank account had been closed and put under investigation for a bounced check from a representative over the phone. I later called 15 days later because he stated that my funds would be mailed to me. The lady I spoke with that day stated that it was suspicious activity on the account which is why it was put on hold. I explained to them over the phone and via message center that the money from this check that they speak of was never deposited into my account. The amount that was sent to me was XXXX in all from another navy federal member and it was sent member to member via app so there was no reason for my account to be under investigation and they could take that money back but I needed access to my funds for business purposes. They proceeded to ask about deposits that came directly from my merchant which had nothing to do with the actual situation but I still explained to them. They then went on to tell me about how my XXXX isnt used for that. I explained XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX They asked for paperwork to prove that and I submitted as requested. The forms I submitted were forms from the city of XXXX for my XXXX, my agreement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and another form stating they are the institution that sends payments from their other business name since it doesnt show up as XXXX payments but instead XXXX payment. They closed my account yet the user who sent the funds to me still has their account. I asked them about it and asked if they could just release my funds that were already in my business and personal account which was around XXXX total. They said no and the lady also said that there is no time frame on the investigation and that they get to it in the order they receive them. It has been months and they will not give me the slightest update.
