Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Application denied

Consumer Complaint: I applied for a XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card on XX/XX/XXXX and was denied by Wells Fargo. As per 15 U.S.C. 1691 ( a ) ( 3 ) it's illegal to discriminate against any applicant with respect to any aspect of a credit transaction. I have attempted numerous times in a private setting to resolve these issues with Wells Fargo. I have sent an Adverse Action letter, two ( 2 ) Notice of Default & Opportunities to Cure, and three ( 3 ) Bills of Particulars. All signed by me, notarized and sent via certified USPS, w/ return receipt. Wells Fargo has been complicit in breaking the law and I have been forced to submit a complaint in AZ District Court. On XX/XX/XXXX I will be submitting the complaint, unless Wells Fargo responds to my demands & complies with federal banking & consumer law. This is my third CFPB complaint & nothing has been done on Wells Fargo 's end.

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: XXXX and XXXX of this year ( 2023 ) {$410.00} for a total of {$820.00}. I have no memory of receiving a bill or email for this amount and I didnt authorize them to be paid by bill pay. The following months XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, my personal banker and branch XXXX was no help. It was like they was covering for the scammers. Most people I had contact with would say, you authorized it. I didnt authorize it. Why would authorize a scam. XXXX XXXX have XXXX issues. I think the scammers are Well Fargo employees, it has to be a inside job to set up a XXXX account, somehow authorize payments. My dispute # with Wells Fargo is XXXX. All they say is, you authorized the XXXX payments.Nothing about the XXXX account, with a due date XXXX of the month. My account has always been XXXX of the month. So I have XXXX due dates, XXXX and XXXX. I ask them why, no answer. I have talked for hours on the phone, in the end of the day, they say you authorized them. Nothing about a scam, they covered for the scammers and helped them. I hope this makes sense, if not let me know.

Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Application denied

Consumer Complaint: My name is XXXX ; XXXX . The Agent for principal XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2023, a application was submitted for a credit card and a tender for collateral was received by your bank on behalf of the Principal. A adverse letter was sent saying the application was denied. So the question now, is where is the collateral your bank received? Because that security collateral has value equal to the amount applied for of the application. Please be advised, I am aware this is securities fraud. This has been a ongoing investigation for over 30 days. I trust that you will correct the wrongdoings of the unknown employee of your financial institution who took it upon themselves to defraud the securities. Please respond to this complaint with your name, job title and how long you have been working for Wells Fargo & Company.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Consumer Complaint: Hello, On XX/XX/23 I received a call from Wells Fargo Customer Service number XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX and they went through some attempted fraudulent charges on my account. I told them all of these charges were fraudulent and I wanted to proceed with pressing criminal charges. I told them I didnt want a new card at this time and I would updated my password and PIN.

I called Wells Fargo back and told them all of the above information, we went through recent charges and I told them the {$100.00} and {$400.00} atm withdraws from XXXX were fraudulent and submitted a claim. I was told it can take up to 10 days to resolve the claim.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: Effective XX/XX/2023, Wells Fargo transferred my mortgage to XXXX XXXX. I paid my XXXX mortgage payment on XX/XX/XXXX. My XXXX credit report shows that I have a new account with XXXX and that I have a missed payment with XXXX and that my mortgage balance is now {$1900.00} higher and that I have two mortgages. This lower my score in the double digits. XXXX also shows that I have a 40 year mortgage when I only have a 30 year mortgage. This was reported to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I need Wells Fargo to report my account closed, and I need XXXX to correct my mortgage term, my account balance and my mortgage term, and that I don't have a missed payment. I also need my payment reduced. I had an escrow shortage with Wells Fargo that was spread out over 24 months with a mortgage payment of {$1600.00} that has jumped to {$2100.00}. I am on a fixed income that is net $ XXXX. I believe that that, because I have so much equity in my home, they want me to foreclose. A friend of mine won a XXXX XXXX lawsuit against XXXX, which is the parent company of XXXX, due to fraudulent practices and Wells Fargo has the same practices. Wells Fargo added {$5000.00} to my balance with no explanation and I can't get to the bottom of this with either lender. Please help me.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low

Subissue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Consumer Complaint: Recently a credit card payment was automatically debited from my Wells Fargo checking account as per my credit card auto pay schedule. However, I didn't have enough money in my Wells Fargo checking account, which I wasn't aware of. As soon as I received an email from Wells Fargo informing me of this overdraft, I moved money from a savings account into my Wells Fargo checking account to cover the amount of the overdraft. This process is instant, and the money hit my WF account within an hour after receiving notice that my account was overdrawn. However, Wells Fargo charged me an overdraft fee, even though their policy is a one day grace period. When I called Wells Fargo, they claimed that the overdraft fee is calculated from moment the account is overdrawn, not from the when the notification of overdraft is sent. I think this policy is deceptive and unfair. If Wells Fargo wants to claim they give a one day grace period to put sufficient funds into the account, that period should start when the customer is informed that their account is overdrawn. It is not hard for them to automate a system to immediately email or notify me when my account is overdrawn. I do not control when bank actions, debits etc, are processed, so it's incredibly onerous to expect me or any consumer to constantly check their account to see if a transaction went through and thus there was an overdraft and the overdraft fee clock has started. This is in fact not a one day grace period and seems to be just another gotcha to collect unfair junk fees from consumers.
