Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I had deal in place to buy a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX miles. From XXXX XXXX. I was told that XXXX owed money on the vehicle in order to get the title. I deposited ( 2 ) checks 1- {$5000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and a XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for {$20000.00} with the balance due upon receipt of vehicle and title. 1 month goes by and the seller disappears. A call was placed to XXXX XXXX to report fraud on XX/XX/XXXX to the fraud department. I was told by the NFCU representative that they can see the transactions and there was nothing they could do since I did not have the account holders real name. I asked does this not count as fraud? The rep continued on saying there is nothing she could do. There was no fraud investigation started by the bank or a freeze placed on the account. Navy Federal Credit Union failed to protect me as a member against money laundering and fraud.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low

Subissue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Consumer Complaint: Hello, I am very concerned with with the financial institution, Navy Federal Credit Union. There have been several instances such as the one I will describe below but with different amount in regards to different companies I have used. For one example, on XX/XX/XXXX I authorized a payment for {$120.00} at the XXXX XXXX XXXX I was at the front desk when the transaction took place, I was also on my banking app and as I made the payment I watched the amount of money come out of my bank account. I check my app every day and for several days everything looked correct, no money was added and nothing was taken away as I was not using that account during the time frame. I check my account on XX/XX/XXXX and I am negative {$120.00}. I call my institution and ask them why I am in the negatives if my money was taken out at the time of transaction. I was told that when the vendor takes more than 3 days to process, the money goes back on to my card and they still have authorization to take it for up to 60 days. No problem, except the money was never put back on my card. I was charged twice. Again, there have been several situations like the one above with different transaction amounts with different vendors. It is a continuing situation Navy Federal refuses to fix or admit that the original payment never goes back on the account and that I some how end up paying twice for a lot of things.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt was result of identity theft

Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Is attempting to collect a debt that was deemed a fraudulent account by the FTC, CFPB, Navy Federal Credit Union, AND all three major credit bureaus. When I previously disputed this item -- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX response was providing a statement from NFCU showing I made a payment on the account. I am unsure how this " proves '' the account was not fraud and/or the result of identity theft -- it certainly does not meet the legal definition in by the provisions of 15 USC Section 1681i of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Making a payment on the account does not prove it was not fraud. I made a payment in an attempt to avoid it hurting my credit while I disputed the information. Navy Federal Credit Union required that I get a police report, and also an FTC affidavit in order to dispute the charges. Which I did- but the took time. I have attached copies here -- again. My NFCU CREDIT CARDS WERE STOLEN FROM MY HOME. Along with my ID, my social security card, etc. This resulted in identity theft. The cards were not OPENED fraudulently. They were stolen and USED fraudulently to open other accounts. I attached the police report that says as much. My next step is to file a complain with the Florida Attorney General 's office and also to file suit against XXXX XXXX as I have med the burden of proof that these items are a result of fraud AND they they have already been removed from my credit previously. Which means that XXXX IS still attempting to collect a debt.

Issue: Fraud or scam

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I applied for a rental advertisement, signed a lease agreement, and wire transferred the first month and security deposit to the scammer 's account. A few days later the scammer requested I send additional funds before sending the keys to the rental. I filed a police report and called my bank, Navy Federal Credit Union, but they claim because it was an ACH transfer there is nothing that can be done about it. I called the scammer 's bank, XXXX, who also claims nothing can be done.

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers

Subissue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2022, I filed out a credit card application offer sent to me by Navy Federal after prequalifying, speaking to representative, unfreezing my credit report, reading terms and conditions of the program before submitting the application. Nevertheless, I was denied the offer, which is understood did not guarantee approval. The problem is the direct reason of the denial of the credit card application! The denial is in violation of the FCRA LAW. Also Violation of the credit card disclosure program which does not specify in filling out the credit card application you have to qualify for a XXXX credit limit! That was the reason verbatim, my credit card application was denied!
