  I wanted to re finance my auto loan with Uncle Credit Union and called at the ***** location but my call went to online customer service and directed to online loan department. Woman over the phone asked me to fill application and my credit inquiry was done right a way. Later on no loan officer reached out to until two weeks. I had to call myself and I was assigned ****** ****** who wasted my time for one month and refused my refinance request after obtaining 3 pay off letters after more than a month. I did not pay to **************** thinking that my refinancing would be done but nothing happened and now my credit report has late payment.All thanks to Uncle Credit Union who refused my refinancing because I have I94 and not the green card. They need to know that nobody can be denied auto loan based on their residency documents. They did not even accept my Driver license which was undergoing renewal.I want them to approach to chrysler capital and admit their mistake and request my lender to remove late payment or otherwise be ready to remove hard inquiry from my credit report because I have been discriminated

  I am not liable for this debt with Uncle Credit Union. I do not have a contract with the collection agency trying to collect. They did not provide me with the original contract as requested. I did not sign any paperwork with the collection agency.

  TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:Over the past few years Ive noticed money coming out of my account not in the order it was spent. I also notice that all my statement and account has been merged to one statement making it difficult to read. Uncle Credit Union has I believe been very crafty and embezzling money and fraudulently balancing accounts. Can someone please assist and tell me whats going on.

  I am the **** for my parents. My dad died in a house fire recently, and my mom developed a brain injury due to smoke exposure and high CO2 levels. She is currently diagnosed with dementia and psychosis. My siblings and I have had to manage all financial issues for her. On 7/3/2024, I attempted to transfer money from her account so that I could pay the rent due on her mobile home spot, where the remains of their burnt home sit. That transfer was administratively canceled. Neither I nor my mother received any communication from Uncle about the action to cancel our transaction. I contacted Uncle on 7/5/2024 to find out why they took this action. The agent's response was to disable all online access to the account. I went into the branch in person on 7/6/2024. I brought all of the required documentation. The bank's assistant manager, *******************, photocopied everything and told me it would be a "Monday or Tuesday" before I would hear back from them. I had not heard back from anyone by then, so I called to follow up. I was told that our documents were being reviewed, and he could not tell me when I should expect to receive a response. I advocated for my concerns to be elevated to an account manager, *********, who promised to prioritize my documents. She later informed me that my POA was accepted and that I would have access to my mother's account. However, the fact that I had attempted to transfer funds from her account to mine to cover the checks I have had to write on her behalf "raised red flags." She stated that the ** was not attempting to "police" the enactment of my mother's POA document. However, that is precisely what they are doing. They have chosen to keep the online access to her account "disabled." My attempts at resolution are currently being ignored. This bank has overstepped its right to control access to my mother's funds, and its employees have decided they have a moral obligation to restrict our access to my mother's account.

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 21983675.  I am satisfied that I now have the required account access that I was requesting and I am glad to know that the credit union is providing their employees further training.  However, I am disappointed that the response states that the lack of access was due to too many password attempts.  That is blatently false and is being used to excuse the actions taken by credit union employees.

  If any investigation into this event were made, it would be clear that the lockout was a purposeful action.  Furthermore, the refusal to reinstate access was also purposeful.  I was, in fact, told that it was related to a backoffice decision.

  Sincerely,

  I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the disclosure of my personal information to credit bureaus, resulting in inaccuracies on my credit report. This has caused significant financial and emotional distress.As per 15 USC 1681 Section 602, I affirm my right to financial privacy and expect my information to be treated confidentially.Moreover, 15 USC 1681 Section 604(a)(2) emphasizes that a consumer reporting agency cannot share account information without my explicit consent, which I have not provided.I have identified discrepancies on my credit report attributed to UNCLE CU, negatively impacting my financial situation. I urgently request the correction of these inaccuracies.Additionally, I wish to emphasize 15 USC 1666(b), which prohibits creditors from treating credit card payments as late under certain circumstances.For your reference, my account details are as follows:Account Number: *****************I request a thorough review of my account, immediate rectification of credit report inaccuracies, and strict compliance with federal laws governing my information.Failure to address these concerns promptly may result in legal action. I appreciate your swift attention to this matter.Sincerely,***************************

  Hello ***,

  I would like to request that you verify this client is requesting the information or filed the complaint.  The reason I ask, this client called us on 02/15/24 at 1:30pm and go information on the account details, so he is fully aware of this debt and not questioning it. 
  

  Also, the complaint references the credit reporting agency.  We are not a credit reporting agency.
  
  It also references credit card payments.  There is no credit card associated with the account the member specified.
  
  He also again says he identified discrepancies on his credit report.  However, once again, he does not state what the discrepancies are.   

  please give me a call regarding this compliant. ************.  

  Thank you

  I was the victim of a phishing scam. My bank had knowledge of the phishing issues and did not alert their customers. On 9/27/23, I received a phone call from my Bank's number ***********) letting me know that there were potentially fraudulent charges coming from my card. After 40 minutes of talking and several pieces of personal information shared with the person I thought was a banker, my card was supposed to be deactivated.On 9/28/23, I visited the Uncle Credit Union branch in person and canceled my card, which apparently had not been canceled the night before as it was supposed to be. Several hours later on the same day, I received another telephone call, again from the same number, letting me know that there were more fraudulent charges. I was wondering how this could be possible as I had just canceled the card, and was told that this was not the case, and my card was still open and active. I was then informed that scam calls have been made from the exact Uncle Credit Union phone number, and the bank had knowledge of this for a few other cases.I have now tried to deactivate my bank account twice, and have been told that I'm not able to because of pending transactions that I don't think I made. This Bank knew there was a security breach and did not disclose it to its customers. Now my personal information is with a scammer and I have no idea how to proceed.

  On about January 31, 2023 I reached out to Uncle Credit Union to for a balance transfer credit card. I spoke and worked with *********************** and was only approved for $1500. After I expressed to her that I solely wanted to apply to be able to do a balance transfer from my other cards she stated she would send it out again to see if I can get approved for enough to cover my balance transfers. ****** emailed me with great news: "Hello *******, You have been approved Platinum Credit Card the credit limit is at $10,00.00 with an interest rate of *****%. I will continue to process your application; I do want to inform you your loan will have a payment protection if incase of unemployment or disability your loan can get paid for up to six months. Also, I do want to inform you that the credit card payment will be due every 19TH of each month." She also attached a link "Balance Transfer promotion: Put a Freeze on High Interest Rates with a Balance Transfer - UNCLE Credit Union (unclecu.org)." That was the end of our conversation. A few days later I called Uncle CU customer service to see how to go about doing the balance transfer and the lady didn't really have an answer and said maybe I can use the **** number with my other creditors and if that didn't work then I could not do a balance transfer. So that is what I did for two separate transaction. On February 25, 2023 I received my first statement and it had a lot of fees added, however my transaction were deemed cash advances and the interest being charged was *****%. I then contacted Uncle CU again and a rep named ***** answered and he then stated that I was supposed to file a balance transfer form and that there was nothing he can do, but email ******. ******'s supervisor ************************* returned my call a couple of days later and she stated she would look into it and investigate. ****** called back and stated that ****** had sent me a link with instructions on how to do a balance transfer (Which is a lie!) I went back to my email to make sure that it was there and I called ****** directly and she confirmed that she didn't send me a link to do a balance transfer and only sent the promotional balance transfer link. I then went to my contract and located where it states in a clause (Non-Variable Rates information) that "Your non-variable ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) applicable to purchases, advances, AND balance transfers will be a *****0% APR. I emailed that directly to ****** where she is still refusing to adjust my interest rate from *****% to *****% deeming it a breach of the contract I signed.
