Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: This complaint involves USAA accounts : XXXX ; XXXX ; XXXX ; and XXXX. These accounts are found on XXXX Credit Report XXXX. I am disputing the accuracy and legitimacy of these account charges. When they initially surfaced, I contacted USAA and advised them that both me and my wife were identity theft victims and that we had not made these charges. Subsequently, I provided USAA all local Police Reports, Federal Identity Theft Task Force reports of the identity theft and fraudulent acquisition of the cards. I provided USAA the report from the U.S. Department of State as well as the Office of Personnel Management advising both me and my wife had been victim of a breach and that our information had been identified in use on the dark web. As a direct result, USAA refused to conduct a comprehensive, reliable investigation in a timely manner that would have allowed the individuals responsible to be brought to justice. Instead, I was repeatedly told " our investigation does not indicate fraud. '' When asked to provide strict proof of their investigation and findings, I was met with hostility. I met with similar results with our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has repeatedly stated they are under no obligation to conduct any subsequent investigation. I have been pursuing this matter now for over five years, to no avail. CREDIT CARD and CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES have an affirmative obligation to Investigate Consumer Credit Report Disputes in a timely fashion and to provide the results of those investigations. USAA, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX have failed to do either. I demand to be provided the results and a copy of the actual investigation conducted on each of these matters, contemporaneous to the event and report.

Consumer Complaint: I got an email from my XXXX college email address from a XXXX XXXX XXXX He was looking for anyone willing to work as his XXXX on a part time basis. I applied for the job position. He said he was a professor at the XXXX XXXX XXXX, part of my job responsibilities would be running errands, making payment, booking appointments e.t.c On XX/XX/XXXX he sent two checks to my email. {$3500.00} and {$3800.00}. He said i would make deposits on his behalf to some orphanage. He asked me to transfer {$2000.00} to XXXX XXXX using XXXX, i said no and that i only make transactions through my bank. I eventually sent {$1000.00} using XXXX through USAA. Then he started presuring me to send the rest of the money, i saw that as ared i called my bank and spoke to an agent to alert them that its fraud and to dispute the {$1000.00} transaction through XXXX. I filled a police report online with the XXXX XXXX police department. Right now my bank is charging m the {$1000.00}. as a returned check, and also a returned check fee. USAA said theres nothing they can do about it. I contacted XXXX, and was told the transcation has posted and there's nothing they can do about it. Am having to pay {$1000.00} that i do not have, am having to bear the brunt even after alerting my bank immediately within 10 minutes to cancel the transaction. Am surprised USAA will authorize XXXX on their banking website knowing fully well that XXXX has no customer or fraud protection. All am asking is my loss or claim of {$1000.00} that was charged to my account and the returned check fee be refunded. Am a victim of fraud and a banking system that has no fraud protection for its customers

Issue: Closing an account

Subissue: Can't close your account

Consumer Complaint: USAA has a predatory policy of requiring accountholders to wait 24 hours after any transaction has posted to the checking account prior to closing the account. This policy generates fee income for the bank, harms consumers, and is not consistent with the policy of other large financial institutions. I can walk into any competitor 's banking center, bring the account to a {$0.00} balance, and close the account on demand. I have repeatedly contacted USAA to close my account since XX/XX/XXXX. I was told initially that the account could not be closed on XX/XX/XXXX because there is a 5 day required waiting period after any direct deposit posts to the account. Two NSF fees hit the account on XX/XX/XXXX and I transferred funds to bring the account to a XXXX balance. Stop payments were supposed to have been placed so that any retry would be denied. I requested to close account on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX, both days the account had a XXXX balance. The representative again refused to close the account since " it has not been 24 hours since your deposit to bring the account to a XXXX balance has been made. '' I have spent hours on the phone with USAA customer service and spoke to a supervisor, XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX. I expressed concern with the policy that harms consumers and continues to generate fees for the bank, and XXXX stated " there is not even a button that allows me to close the account. '' I offered to drive from XXXX to XXXX XXXX to close the account in person. Again, I was told you can't close the account in person either. XXXX said he could see a returned item coming through the account and would wait until the next morning to refund the NSF fee and call me by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to confirm that he had completed the transaction. He did not follow through, and I called again to speak to a manager on XX/XX/XXXX. I was promised that a " supervisor '' would call me back. No one has called. USAA has failed to act in good faith, and hides behind the veil of the call center - not allowing customers to contact managers/bank officers with any meaningful authority. USAA even sent their own payments back through the account a second time for an insurance policy that had been paid in full ( valuable personal property ). Stop payments are not honored and more fees are assessed. This type of behavior led to a class action settlement in XXXX. I have been a customer for 12 years with no problems and have a credit score of XXXX.
