Issue: Closing an account

Subissue: Funds not received from closed account

Consumer Complaint: This is the second complaint on how my fathers account was closed and still no one can tell me how. My father XXXX XXXX XXXX passed away XXXX XXXX and he had a joint account with his girlfriend XXXX XXXX. I was able to close is personal account as soon as I had the death certificate but not the joint account since XXXX was still alive. But unfortunately she could not take my father off the account with out me since they were not married and she was unable to get his death certificate. So I was willing to go down with her to take him off. But unfortunately she kept putting it off and she had passed away two months later. I was told by Wells Fargo the account can not be closed unless both next of kin were present with both death certificates and IDs since they were not married and there was no Wills or Trust. If no one agreed on who got what we were told we had to take it to court which no one had done. I had been trying to close this account for months and kept getting the run around from the bank. I even had a letter from the bank stating both parties must be present. I was just recently told the account had been closed by XXXX 's son and that was that. When I called the bank they couldn't give me any information over the phone so I went down and was given the run around several times. When I finally was able to talk to a manager they said they don't know why it was closed and since it was closed they would have to have the Estate department call me by XX/XX/2023. Well here it is Thursday XX/XX/2023 with no call no explanation. I need an answer on why this has happened with my fathers account. I am the only living child of my fathers so no one is able to get anything legally but me. There was no one on my fathers account but him and his girlfriend, so with that being said no one can close the account until both next of kin have gone down together and shown ID with both death certificates. I want answers.

Issue: Opening an account

Subissue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

Consumer Complaint: I received an email on XXXX XXXX from Wells Fargo indicating if I opened a new checking account using the link they provided, I would be awarded {$320.00}. I needed to open the account before XX/XX/2023, have a total of {$1000.00} in direct deposits for 90 days, then I was to receive the {$320.00} bonus. I clicked on the link they provided from my email and opened the account on XX/XX/2023. After I opened the account, I noticed the bonus code was not in my paperwork. The bonus code was XXXX. After I noticed the bonus code wasn't there, I immediately called customer service #. They told me to go into the branch and they can add the bonus code. A week later I went into the XXXX CA branch ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX ) and they applied the bonus and they said to wait until all the terms of the offer were met, then you would received the {$320.00} bonus. 120 days after I opened the account, I called the customer service department and they indicated the code was not applied when I opened the account. I said, it wasn't my fault your email link did not work properly and I wanted to open a complaint. I opened a complaint and they denied my claim. I asked to speak with a supervisor and they opened another case. Again, they said since the code was not there on the day I opened the account, it was not valid. I reiterated, the email from Wells Fargo indicated the link would auto-apply the code, which it did not. I would like to add, Wells Fargo has some of the worst customer service representatives I have experienced at a bank.

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 have a Well Fargo Active Cash Credit Car with Well Fargo Bank. I were charged for multiple times for unauthorizes charges from a merchandise that I am not recognize either, I did contact Well Fargo to resolve the problem, they replaced in total more than two card and account during the investigation, end up give me temporary credit for my account. Then, they did send me a letter about calling them back for the report/claim, but the date stated in the letter was in the end of XXXX and post office delivered the letter after the due date that the bank needs me to call back. Turn out, at the end the bank decided to give out a decision on their own, I did tried to made a phone call with Well Fargo banker in XX/XX/2023, the call was taken placed at around XXXX XXXX same day, I were on the phone with multiple banker from their different department, at last I got a chance to speak to a Fraud department agent, he stated that the claim I made was denied, he did open a reconsideration form about the case for me. But when I asked about the chances of them actually accept the claim is not guarantee. Basically, all they said to me was if the claim was not made and I will pay for those unauthorizes charges in total of {$1700.00} with the same merchandise happen at the same day for {$99.00} were charged on my account XXXX times, and XXXX was {$29.00} and XXXX was {$60.00}. The bank, Well Fargo found those charges was authorized by me, which is not true in my option because it happened at the same time even I received a text message alert about those charges, that is how I knew and reported it to the bank. Plus all those charges was from the XXXX XXXX, I lived in XXXX XXXX.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Cashing a check

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/23, I was contacted by the fraud department at TD Bank who suspected alteration ( name whited out and replaced ) of a payee on a {$11000.00} check deposited there drawn on my account at Wells Fargo. I confirmed a different intended payee and fraud was confirmed. I immediately contact my bank to alert them to the fraud, closed the account and transferred funds to a new account I completed and sent the notarized affidavit at the Wells Fargo branch. Despite that there are no contested facts in this case, I am being told by Wells Fargo that return of my funds may take 4 months subject to an investigation and even then are not assured unless they recover funds from XXXX. As I have satisfied my requirement for immediate notification, I am seeking immediate return of funds to enable me to compete payment to the original payee. I have repeatedly requested same form multiple individuals at Wells Fargo to no avail.
