Consumer Complaint: My loan got sent back for underwriting and they found a judgement on my record which I paid 10 years ago off, I got the settlement statement. My loan officer said that that was the one thing holding me back from closing everything else is good. Then I get information that I need an explanation of credit stating their are some thing on their that need to be explained. I was under the impression that if they checked my credit twice why now in the final hour is underwriting having problems. I have sent doc. Several times only to have underwriting say oh we need something else or can you explain this it's like they wasting my time and now I am not sure if I will close after months of checking everything and them saying everything looks good and now it doesn't.

Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Application denied

Consumer Complaint: I'm writing this complaint in regard to an adverse action letter I received concerning a consumer credit application I submitted to NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION on XXXX2021, Pursuant to the FCRA, as a consumer, accuracy is defined as the measure of value ; value is something only a natural person or human being can measure. Fair to me means no one is taking unjust advantage of another. Congress talks about accuracy and fairness, they're asking me as a consumer to decide whether my consumer report is valuable to me ; and whether I feel like I am receiving a just advantage or no one is taking unjust advantage against me. I have reasons to convict NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION of 2 counts of taking unjust advantage against me on XXXX2021 and XXXX/2021. according to 15 USC 1681m the adverse action section in the Fair Credit Reporting Act is that it never mentions a denial of credit. It only mentions being denied for insurance or employment. Why does it not ever mention being denied for credit? The answer is in Truth In Lending Act ( TILA ). I am aware that there was a finance charge involved in the transaction which is the sum of all charges. I can not be denied credit because I know that I have an open-end credit plan, which I administered and extend/originate myself credit to make them a creditor/debtor to extend me my own credit. I am the consumer and only a natural person grant such rights. This is why adverse action does not mention being denied for credit because Congress knows the truth, financial institutions don't loan money because there hasn't been any in circulation since XXXX and also pursuant to 12 USC 83, banks are prohibited by law to make loans or discounts on the security of the shares of its own capital stock. So what is navy federal denying me for exactly? are they admitting to violating their corporate charter by loaning me money? Where is the credit coming from exactly? Can they provide me and the CFPB with documentary evidence on where the money being lent is coming from? According to 15 USC 1681m ( C ) ( ii ) ( I ) Information referred to in subparagraph ( A ) - does not include- information solely as transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person furnishing the information. They are found to be in violation labeled Exhibit A & B. This is not a request, I am granted the right to credit under my open-end credit plan which I am administering. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681m The term adverse action ( A ) has the same meaning as in section 1691 ( d ) ( 6 ) of this title ; and ( B ) means ( i ) a denial or cancellation of, an increase in any charge for, or a reduction or other adverse or unfavorable change in the terms of coverage or amount of, any INSURANCE, existing or applied for, in connection with the underwriting of INSURANCE ; ( ii ) a denial of employment or any other decision for employment purposes that adversely affects any current or prospective employee ; ( iii ) a denial or cancellation of, an increase in any charge for, or any other adverse or unfavorable change in the terms of, any license or benefit described in section 1681b ( a ) ( 3 ) ( D ) of this title ; and ( iv ) an action taken or determination that is ( I ) made in connection with an application that was made by, or a transaction that was initiated by, any consumer, or in connection with a review of an account under section 1681b ( a ) ( 3 ) ( F ) ( ii ) of this title ; and ( II ) adverse to the interests of the consumer. The law did not mention any denials of credit but does mentions denial of insurance or employment. The application I submitted to NFCU was a consumer credit application. Pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( f ) The term credit means the right granted by a creditor to a debtor to defer payment of debt or to incur debt and defer its payment. Does this not mean that I granted the right to NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION as the debtor in this transaction to incur debt and defer its payments? so why am I being denied for CREDIT that I am granting? I did not apply for insurance or employment with NFCU. Every consumer credit transaction includes a finance charge. a finance charge is defined as the sum of all charges, payable directly or indirectly by the person to whom the credit is extended, and imposed directly or indirectly by the creditor as an incident to the extension of credit pursuant to 15 USC 1602 ( j ) - The terms open end credit plan and open end consumer credit plan mean a plan under which the creditor reasonably contemplates repeated transactions, which prescribes the terms of such transactions, and which provides for a finance charge which may be computed from time to time on the outstanding unpaid balance .I 'm granting the right as the original creditor to open, my open-end consumer credit plan. copies of the federal laws will be uploaded labeled exhibit c, d and e.

Issue: Problem when making payments

Subissue: Problem during payment process

Consumer Complaint: I am a natural person and a federally protected consumer. NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION is a financial institution holding the account ending in XXXX that belongs to me, the consumer. On XX/XX/2021 I certified mailed with a green receipt a remittance coupon, a negotiable instrument as defined by UCC 3-104, to NAVY FEDERAL . Before sending the negotiable instrument, in an attempt to gain clarity I asked a representative in the secured portal how NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION wanted me to indorse the remittance coupon. I was told to indorse it to NAVY FEDERAL and that is what I did. The negotiable instrument was received on XX/XX/2021 and signed for by an agent on behalf of NAVY FEDERAL. NAVY FEDERAL accepted my negotiable instrument for the value of {$22000.00} as the instrument was not returned. Pursuant to UCC 3-603, NAVY FEDERAL is a person entitled to enforce the instrument, therefore, even if they refused it the alleged debt is discharged upon receipt. On XX/XX/2021, NAVY FEDERAL without my consent processed an electronic fund transfer of {$450.00} from my personal savings account to the credit card account. This is a violation and breach of their own card agreement as my negotiable instrument paid NAVY FEDERAL in full therefore, NAVY FEDERAL had no right to go into my personal savings account and process an electronic transfer of my funds. This is an unauthorized electronic fund transfer and blatant wire fraud as I did not consent to having my funds electronically transferred from my personal savings account to the credit card account ending in:XXXX.

On XXXX I called XXXX and talked with XXXX Services and XXXX to get the statement placed on the account. After being denied. I asked why and where legally do they have the right to deny my request. I wasn't given a legal explanation as to why my request was denied. There is a difference between lawful money vs. XXXX XXXX in which most bankers are incompetent and void of overstating of the law.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: I began to notice more recently that my deposits were being held as pending - while transactions ( that had already been posted to the account ), eat away at the new deposit before funds become available. Navy Federal Credit Union then takes the money a second time claiming they put the deposit in first but that is not the case. A branch deposit was made on XX/XX/XXXX for {$1500.00} and did not become available until XX/XX/XXXX. I had {$3600.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX All transactions posted on XX/XX/XXXX were made and completed before XX/XX/XXXX, For example : XXXX payment ( instant payment ) of {$260.00} was made on XX/XX/XXXX but, per my banking statement it shows that transaction was posted on XX/XX/XXXX ( Same day the {$1500.00} was made " available '' ) Next example : I received {$260.00} on XX/XX/XXXX from my reimbursement for internet with my job. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a XXXX payment for {$260.00} to my brother in law to pay the internet bill. This is supposed to be an instant transaction but when I looked at my statement it was deducted on XX/XX/XXXX. My Account is stating available balance is {$1100.00} Current Balance states {$1500.00} There are many discrepancies, my husband and I have noticed with our account and we would like there to be some sort of rectification. The Navy Federal Representative did not provide detailed explanation. This seems to be fraudulent activity by the company.
