Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage
Subissue:
Consumer Complaint: I recently filed bankruptcy stop the property foreclosure sale of my home. My Bankruptcy has been dismissed and I recently submitted financials and request for mortgage modification again. Regions bank has given me a hard time with my request for mortgage assistance. Regions has informed me last week they would not review my file because I was on XXXX. I did provide the requested documents I don't want to lose my house to foreclosure. Received a letter in the mail from the XXXX XXXX XXXX Regions foreclosure attorney stating there is a property foreclosure sale set for my home XX/XX/2018. The letter is dated XX/XX/2018 the Tennessee law states the homeowner is to be given 30 day notice before the property sale date. I didn't receive this notice 30 days before the sale date. I feel I'm being discriminated and not being treated fairly. see attachment

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: I went to use my Visa debit card on XX/XX/2018 at my local hardware store. My card was declined. I then went home, logged onto my banks website and noticed purchases on my account that I did not make. I called the bank, they informed me that suspicious activity on my account hat caused them to freeze my account, that I needed to go to a local branch office to open a dispute. I then went to the bank, open a dispute, but I had to wait until all of the charges cleared my account, all the while incurring over draft charges because I transferred all of the money out of the account as to not incur further illegal purchases. The bank sent me a letter in the mail saying that they had investigated my claim and fount that all of the questionable charges that that caused them to freeze my account were authorized transactions. They were not. So I went back to a local branch and had the open the dispute back up and to investigate again. A week later I received another letter stating that my second dispute had been declined because they had found that one of the charges was actually mine. I told them about that particular charge being mine from the very beginning. So thus far they have refused to credit my account back with these charges or the over draft fees that I was charged during this period. This is a business account that I have had with Regions bank for twenty years. This is unacceptable. They do not answer their help line phone number.

Issue: Getting a line of credit
Subissue:
Consumer Complaint: In XXXX I when shopping for a Home Equity Line Of Credit ( HELOC ) so that I can pay off bills and make home improvements. On XX/XX/2018 I went to Regions Bank mainly to ask questions and gather information to see if this is where I wanted to apply for the HELOC. They were very helpful and answered all my questions. I shared with them my credit score, my personal finance and some of the negatives that I had on my credit history. I was trying to get from them, if I should or shouldn't apply based on the information I was providing. I knew that applying would result in a HARD INQUIRY on my credit which would affect my credit score. I didn't want to apply if the information I was sharing didn't prequalify me to move forward. But from the positive response I received I didn't see a reason not to apply. I was informed that the underwriters makes all the decisions on the applications. After weighing everything I returned To Regions Bank on XX/XX/2018 and applied for a HELOC. By the end of the day on Wednesday, XX/XX/2018 my credit application was denied. Now I have NO HELOC and left with a HARD INQUIRY on my credit. I have a checking account with Regions because I like them. So I'm not trying to hurt them. I need your help in getting their HARD INQUIRY off my credit report IMMEDIATELY so I can continue to search for the financial product that I need to do what I need to do for my home and personal finance.

Issue: Managing an account
Subissue: Fee problem
Consumer Complaint: Regions Bank has been charging me excessive fees and returning items that other banks would pay into overdraft, the type of items that they did not return before, after I opted out of overdraft coverage based on advice from a customer service agent when I said I wanted to avoid fees in the future. Their customer service agents refused to admit bank errors when I was charged overdraft/NSF fees on a positive balance randomly during the day ( not overnight ), I had made a deposit to cover the transactions via instant transfer from the XXXX XXXX app by the stated deadline of XXXX central the day before. The mobile app showed the balance correctly at XXXX central, and I woke up the next day and it was still the same, then at some point I log in and my balance is {$36.00} less than expected after the fee. After I made the deposit, the deposited amount had been included in my available balance on both online banking and the mobile app. I should not have been charged the fees on these days. When I called customer service about this the agents basically just said no and didnt really listen to me, and implied that they thought I was making it up. The dates and times sometimes change for transactions, purchases disappear and then reappear later, and its very difficult to know exactly how much is in my account. The fees got worse after I called and complained. When I was opted in to overdraft coverage they were still returning some items and charging me a fee- I still had to pay the item another way but had a fee from Regions and a fee from the company, but it wasnt every single item. I was never able to make an everyday debit card or atm transaction that overdrew my account even when I really needed to get gas and was getting paid the next day, so I turned overdraft coverage off as the agent suggested because almost nothing was being covered anyway. The way it was explained to me was that opting out is just supposed to mean I do not want to allow debit card and atm transactions to overdraw my account, but I cant opt out of overdraft for checks, ach, and recurring card transactions. It should not affect how they treat my account in terms of paying or returning a check, echeck, or recurring payment, but it has seemed to have the effect of them returning more items and charging more fees. It seems almost every item is returned but they dont let me know until several days later, and these fees are being charged for items that were not paid. I have been charged {$210.00} in fees just since XX/XX/XXXX, half of that on 1 day ( It didnt show up until XX/XX/XXXX but the {$100.00} in fees are listed on the XXXX ). My balance is - {$200.00}. If you remove all of these fees just since the XXXX my account would not be negative, and many banks would have paid the returned items in my case. I might not have this big of a problem with the fees if the items themselves were not returned, causing me to be charged another fee by the other company for many of them. I was charged at least 2 {$36.00} fees when I had a positive balance after making a deposit by the deadline. I only didnt make a deposit because it appeared that the items were successful on the other companies end, and I wasnt seeing any returned items on my end so that I could prevent them being returned. The items had appeared to be completed when I last checked the app.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Subissue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Consumer Complaint: I opened an account with Comdata in XXXX of XXXX for my truck drivers to purchase fuel for long distance trips. My account code is XXXX. The cards were setup for fuel only and on situations were a driver needed cash for roadside assistance, truck wash, fax service, etc. I manually generated an EXPRESS CHEK code ( XXXX ) from the Comdata portal and send code to the driver with the amount available on the code to access cash or pay for service. On XX/XX/XXXX we hired a new driver, XXXX XXXX XXXX whom managed to withdraw cash advances from the fuel card without me knowing. The fuel transactions Mr. XXXX was making were legitimate but the cash advances were fraudulent. From XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX Mr. XXXX stole a total of {$28000.00} not including the fees for the cash advances. On the weekly statements Comdata sends in the mail ( " Daily RECAP SHEET '' ) these cash advances were not listed on the summary only express codes and the total purchases for each card. During the first week of XX/XX/XXXX we had a business slow down but the comdata fuel expenses were still high. I called in Comdata for help and when I spoke to a representative they guided me to a section of their website where I will have to run specific reports for detailed explanations and that's when I realized the fraudulent cash advances Mr. XXXX was taking with his fuel card. I have filed criminal charges with the XXXX, New Jersey Police Department against the driver. I immediately reported all the fraudulent transactions to Comdata however they are refusing to issue credit for the charges because they claimed the driver had a card. However I never requested for this drive or any driver to have access to cash advances that was the purpose for the express chek codes. If they would have listed these cash advances on the weekly recap statements I would've notice the fraudulent activity but they were not listed. I believe Comdata needs to credit me back for these transactions as they never notified me about any cash advances this driver was fraudulently making or any of my drivers, and they also never notified me that my drivers were able to get cash advances with their fuel cards. I have attached a copy of what the daily recap weekly statement looks like and it does not show anything for cash advances.
