      Hello, I wish to register a complaint regarding RBC Royal Bank. I requested an international money transfer to my U.S. account, which was never received. RBC kept my money and refused to credit me back. They attempted to charge me an additional $25 to simply look into it. * **** ****** ** *****  ** ********* ***** ******** ******* ** ********** Their automated phone system frequently hangs up on you, their associates cannot call you back if they disconnect, and you are constantly transferred around. I had a issue in the past with RBC, where I cancelled a credit card, and it was near impossible to continue to make payments on the remaining balance as I kept being told "you cannot make payments because the card is cancelled." Thank you, ******

      I called online service center to close my account with RBC in back August 2023. They requested to visit any branch to do it. I visited branch to close. They asked me to sign the paper , and made my balance "0" and told me "your account closed" so I discarded my debit card. That was a successful closure. But that account was still open. they still charge interests and other fees. What is going on in the bank system. So weird.

      They sent my Car to Credit Collections (*** ***********) after I paid it and received a payed in full statement on September 7th. Now it will not release from Collections and their data. Secondary issue, They placed a Lien on my business Vehicle that I am looking to sell and the transaction can only be complete once the Lien is removed and the documents can move over to the new owner. I also cannot pay off the loan unless I sell the Vehicle first as my business currently does not make any income. The only solution is to sell the vehicle first so that I can pay off the loan in full. Otherwise I cannot afford to pay them. So the vehicle must be sold first. I have attempted several times to explain it to them however they do not seem to understand the only resolution is remove the lien so that I can properly sell and then with those funds I can pay the loan off.

      My Consumer proposal was completed May 25th, 2023. I have been trying unsuccessfully to have this reflected on my credit report by Royal Bank. I have sent ******* the legal documents they required to have it corrected several times. They have agreed and changed it, only to have it changed back at the start of the next month. I have contacted Royal Banks Collections office by phone and email. They claimed two months ago they were unaware of the proposal completion, despite accepting payment and putting it on my credit report as a regular payment - which will leave the R9 on my record longer. They have now altered the Consumer Proposal payments to appear as monthly payments. Court documents prove otherwise.

      I called rbc bank as POA on an account, We misplaced the client card and wanted to status card as lost so no one else can use it. She proceeded to say I could do nothing else and had to visit a branch. I want to speak to someone so I could have my card locked for the time being so my funds can’t be touched.
