Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account

Subissue: Transaction was not authorized

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2023 a furniture store failed to deliver usable furniture. They tried to deliver damaged furniture. I did NOT sign for the delivery and refused delivery. I tried to work it out with the furniture store and they NEVER redelivered the furniture. After not being able to rectify the situation with the company I called Navy Federal Credit Union to reverse the charges of XXXX. Navy Federal advised the merchant sent them a delivery receipt that I signed along with a statement from me I clearly did not right as well an altered finance company contract which the merchant blocked out my paragraph which stated I am not signing for delivery until I get the item in a new condition and me denying the charges. I clearly did not sign for this delivery. Navy Federal failed to fully investigate and even with me sending them proof of contract and proof of altered contract along with FTC complaint and Police report they still charged me checking account and refused to refund my account. As per 15 usc 1681 once they were advised of the identity theft which in this case Aggregated Identity theft because my name was forged and business records were altered they were supposed to protect my consumer rights and block this merchant from recharging and return the payment as per their own fraud protection measures on the Navy Federal Credit Unit site once supplied with the Identity Theft affidavit and Police report information. I went so far as to send them my index number for my civil suit for fraud, identity theft and breach of contract. Navy Federal Credit Union continued to Violate my Federally protected rights and not charge back the merchant.

Subissue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Re : Dispute of Inaccurate Information on XXXX Credit Report Dear XXXX XXXX Department, I am writing to dispute certain information on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate and in violation of consumer protection laws, specifically 15 U.S. Code 1681s2, 1666b ( a ), and 1681a ( 2 ) ( 1 ). These inaccuracies are adversely affecting my financial well-being and hindering my ability to pursue employment opportunities. I am providing detailed information below to help you understand the nature of these inaccuracies. Account Information : Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Type : Credit card Responsibility : Individual Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Status : Closed. {$170.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. Status Updated : XX/XX/XXXX Inquiries : There were three inquiries on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have no knowledge of these inquiries and believe they are inaccurate. Addresses : I also want to address the issue of multiple addresses on my credit report. There are several addresses listed, including : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, MI XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL XXXX XXXX have no affiliation with these addresses, and they should not be associated with my credit report. The only accurate address that should appear on my account is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX. Please delete the incorrect addresses and retain only the one I have provided. Late Payments - Violation of 15 U.S. Code 1666b ( a ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( 1 ) : The credit report reflects late payments that are inconsistent with my actual payment history. According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b ( a ), these late payments must accurately reflect my payment history, and any inaccurate information is prohibited. Late payments are also illegal under 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( 1 ), as they affect my creditworthiness, credit standing, and capacity, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Investigation of Disputes - Violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( b ) : As per 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( b ), I have previously disputed this inaccurate information with Experian, and you have a responsibility to investigate and report the results of the investigation to the consumer reporting agency. However, the inaccuracies have not been rectified, and I believe this is a violation of the FCRA. Unauthorized Access - Violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681 : Any person who obtains a consumer report from a consumer reporting agency without a permissible purpose or under false pretenses is liable under 15 U.S. Code 1681. I request that you review the circumstances under which my credit report was accessed and ensure that it complies with the law. I kindly request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, their immediate correction, and an updated credit report that accurately reflects my credit history, including the account details, inquiries, and addresses provided above. Please provide a written response regarding the outcome of this investigation and the actions taken to rectify these issues within 30 days, as required by law. Enclosed with this letter are copies of documents supporting my claims, including payment records, correspondence with creditors, and other relevant information. I expect XXXX to take prompt action to rectify these inaccuracies and ensure compliance with federal consumer protection laws. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Subissue: Payment process

Consumer Complaint: I'm upset that I am having to file yet another complaint against NFCU and their mortgage division. I am in a difficult financial situation now since my spouse passed away and losing quite a bit of income. I updated NFCU as to my current situation I also speak for a few who feel bad they they are having trouble meeting their monthly expenses like I am. Today XX/XX/2023 I made my past due mortgage payment before it was 30 days late and reflected on my credit report as delinquent. After I set up the payment as I always do only to have it rejected with a notification to contact NFCU by phone to complete the process. I was LOCKED OUT of my account and could not process any payment online like I have every other time except once when I was late making my mortgage payment then but assumed it was not their common practice.especially after a lawsuit alleging the very same behavior a few years ago. Clearly NFCU is not concerned with their customers experience in making payment 's on their loan. I told the customer service rep how upset I was and she agreed that this practice is common and unfair. Additionally over the course of a few weeks NFCU called my cell phone a minimum of twice, sometimes 3 times a day every day which is quite a bit more than they are allowed to do by law.In fact they completely filled up my voice mail. I know I am late but to have them harass me on the phone especially while I am going through the grieving process after losing my spouse suddenly is too much to bare.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Banking errors

Consumer Complaint: I had two unauthorized transfers on my checking account at Navy Federal Credit Union. There were two transfers for {$50.00}, totaling {$100.00}, stolen by a person claiming to be my son. My son was XXXX and I have not seen him or spoken to him for almost XXXX years. He also does not even know that this bank account exists. Also, even if he did know about this account, he would never transfer money out of it without discussing it with me first. I told the fraud team at the bank all this information and they called me a liar. They said that the person who took the funds out of my account was in fact my real son and his name was XXXX XXXX. First of all, that is not my son 's name. And second, I don't know anyone by the name XXXX XXXX. No one has ever used this account except me. No one knows about this account except me. The message from the bank said I would need to discuss this transaction with XXXX XXXX. I do not know anyone by that name. And no one has my permission to take money out of my account. The fact that the bank fraud team were denying my claims suggests to me that there are suspicions for bank fraud. I also show that there is someone accessing my online banking from a XXXX computer using a XXXX browser. They are hacking my account. I do not ever use or own XXXX products. This could very well be the same person that fraudulently transfered funds out of my account. I would like to get to the bottom of this fraud claim and have the funds that were stolen fully reimbursed to my account.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account

Subissue: Transaction was not authorized

Consumer Complaint: I am in distress, having fallen victim to a distressing incident of identity theft. On XX/XX/XXXX, an unauthorized withdrawal of approximately {$1100.00} was made from my checking account. This transpired when my wallet, debit card, and cell phone were stolen by an individual I unwittingly brought back to my hotel, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. To make matters worse, this person XXXX XXXX and absconded with my belongings. Upon discovering the theft, I promptly reported the incident to the hotel 's front desk. Regrettably, their initial response did not involve contacting the police. It was only after I firmly insisted that they made the call, leading to a considerable delay of approximately two days before the police arrived. Unfortunately, the language barrier proved to be another obstacle as they did not speak English. Through the use of a translator on their phone, I tried to explain the incident and expressed my desire to file a police report. To my dismay, they informed me that this was not within their purview and that I would need to report the incident at a police station. However, they did not provide me with an address or any means of contact. In an effort to rectify this unsettling situation, I swiftly filed a complaint with Navy Federal Credit Union, the institution with which I hold my account, regarding the unauthorized transactions and withdrawals that had occurred in my checking account. I filed this complaint on approximately XX/XX/XXXX. In response, they assured me that they would temporarily credit my account with the stolen amount and conduct a thorough investigation into the matter. As a result, my account was credited with {$910.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. My hope was that justice would be served and I could be made whole again, but my optimism was short-lived. On XX/XX/XXXX, Navy Federal Credit Union abruptly reversed the credited amount, stating, " Based on a thorough investigation of your account activity, we have determined that no error has occurred. '' I am reaching out in desperation, seeking assistance and support in resolving this distressing situation, and to be made whole once more. Your understanding and help during this trying time would mean the world to me.
