Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Consumer Complaint: Navy Federal Credit Union recently revoked my debit card privileges in XX/XX/XXXX. There explanation provided to me by a XXXX was due to XXXX XXXX claims filed 6 months time frame. I opened my account with Navy Federal Credit Union in XX/XX/XXXX. My first fraud claim filed was on ; XXXX {$1300.00} XXXX {$1100.00} XXXX {$240.00} XX/XX/XXXX - {$140.00} XX/XX/XXXX - {$270.00} The fraudulent filed claim was reported immediately, and approved by NFCU. The next Fraudulent claim reported to nfcu was on XXXX {$1100.00} & XXXX {$240.00}, which was denied by nfcu. I reported claim XXXX {$240.00}, which was a continuation of left off unauthorized charges day before, however, it was resulted in a new fraud claim. The last XXXX fraudulent claims filed on XX/XX/XXXX - {$140.00} & XX/XX/XXXX - {$270.00}, was approved by NFCU. Only XXXX fraud claims were actually accepted and approved by NFCU. XXXX of the claims filed XX/XX/XXXX - {$140.00} & XX/XX/XXXX - {$270.00}, are within 6 months time frame. I filed a appeal on XX/XX/XXXX, I provided NFCU a copy of a police report, FTC Identity Theft Report, IRS XXXX XXXX, appeal was denied, which Nfcu XXXX not notify in writing or email. Under the XXXX If you suspect there have been unauthorized transactions involving your accounts, it could be a result of identity theft or a lost or stolen debit card. In these cases, you have recourse under the XXXX. Notify your bank of a lost or stolen ATM or debit card right away. You are no longer responsible for unauthorized use of the card as soon as you report the loss. If you report a lost or stolen ATM or debit card within XXXX days, the XXXX limits your liability to {$50.00}. If you report the loss within 60 days after your statement is mailed to you, you could lose as much as {$500.00}. I have an over draft protection on my account, that I usually have 30 days to bring current, since my debit card privileges has been revoked, NFCU recently sent me a letter informing me that I had to bring my account current by XX/XX/XXXX. My account has only been in a negative status for less than a week. This is unfair and unjust discrimination by NFCU. If you dont report a loss within 60 days you risk unlimited loss. Once notified, the financial institution has XXXX business days to conduct an investigation of the claim. The institution must tell you the results within XXXX days of concluding its investigation. If a mistake was made, the institution must correct it within XXXX business day. Occasionally, banks can take up to 45 days to conduct the investigation, but in these cases, the bank has to give the disputed money back to you until the process is over.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: I recieved funding through goverment assistance covid-19. And recieved a goverment check for XXXX for deposit into my business account with Navy Federal Bank. XX/XX/XXXX the check was deposited and immediately flagged as a fake check. After reviewing and verifying the check a portion of the funds was released, XXXX and immediately on friday all acounts was froze and closed without warning or notification.When i called to check what was going on they said they had high belief that the check would not clear. I knew this was false because it was a goverment check. After verifing the check was indeed legit, they later said my account was set up wrong for my business account.After sending all the documents to correct they still did not deposit the check. Ater waiting on hold for over several hours they said the check would be returned and the account closed. I asked what day the process would start so i can notify the XXXX loan department and get a reissue of the check they are holding, they said up to & mounths to return the check! after i informed them that this would cause me to defult on the funding and miss the dead lines set for funding that i signed for they refused to give me a number to a complaint department or even a explanation on why the funds was held. I find the only reason they had for not releasing the funds was racially motivated.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Collected or attempted to collect exempt funds

Consumer Complaint: I am a victim of Navy Federal attempting to collect a dept. They have taken hold of my accounts including the exempt one which is an CD/IRA that belongs to my kids. I have filed a complaint with consumer financial bureau, XXXX, FTA and I also filed a motion with the court on XX/XX/XXXX for my assets to be released. The judge ruled in my favor and they have refused. They have scared me, bullied me, refused to speak to me and using abuse of power to take my funds to pay of a credit card I accumulated during the pandemic. I am not the only victim in XXXX they were sued XXXX XXXX for improper debt collection and this is the same issue that is happening to me. I was told by an agent called XXXX to call an attorney. She was being sarcastic because I said all my funds are locked up by navy federal. She demoralized me right on the recorded line. This occurred today at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. this is the second complaint i have filed against navy federal due to this issue. The consumer Protection bureau is suppose to assist consumers not intimidate them, give them false information and make fun of there issues over the phone. This is completely unethical, unprofessional and embarrassment to the state and the governor himself.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: Navy Federal has yet to address a dispute for a billing error that was raised in XX/XX/XXXX. They were sent a total of 4 payable instruments for the balance at the time of both of my accounts. 2 instruments for each account. To date, the payments have never been applied to my credit card accounts. They have yet to acknowledge that they have received it and refuse to send it back in the case that it was not accepted. A negotiable instrument is an acceptable form of payment as there is no money since the bankruptcy of this country in XXXX. Navy Federal continues to state that I owe them money for so-called outstanding bills and repayment of the money they " gave '' or loaned me. However, banks are not allowed to make loans according to 12 USC 83. The disclosures for these transactions have security interest clauses within it. A security interest can not be given to a person if the obligor has not already fulfilled their obligation. I am requesting the original wet-ink signed contract that compels me to perform in regards to this contract. A contract requires 2 signatures in order for it to be deemed valid. I have asked repeatedly for this information and this company keeps sending me a bunch of statements. In the case that Navy Federal can not provide me with the signed contract that I am requesting, they need to stop asking for repayment. I am requesting the return of my {$700.00} down payment, as a cash downpayment is a violation of TILA pursuant to 15 USC 1605 ( a ) and 15 USC 1662 ( 2 ) Please see attachment for affidavit and notice of rescission due in 20 days.
