      I opened a new account with ********************** after closing my account with ****** they send me a check out with my remaining balances in my accounts with them and I deposited it through mobile at USALLIANCE. After Review they told me thats my check was rejected for being altered even though its an official check and they will not call to verify. They just assume and told me nothing else could be done and that I should call Penfed to get a new check and they cant do anything else nor would I be able to use any service of theres in the future. Im highly disappointed and baffled. They care none for their ************* would like for them to call and verify and open back my account. Its unacceptable knowing its a official check and nothing fictitious about it.

      Hello,I'm emailing in regards to requseting that you forward this information directly to your fraud department - I had recevied a notification from my credit monitoring service that a hard inquiry was performed on my credit. I called Experian immediately and was advised that they would remove the item due to id theft I was also advised that they would contact the creditor directly with this information so they are aware, but was advised that I should send the creditor my FTC Identity Theft report that was filed so you would have it for your records and to make sure nothing was opened in my name resulting from this hard inquiry. I'm attaching a copy of my FTC Identity Theft Report directly to this email for your review. Thank you for your assistance please let me know if anything else is needed from my end.

      I need the company to contact me because their live chat keeps having me wait endlessly despite saying only 2 minutes and my external transfer is still on hold. See screenshot.

      I opened a new high yield savings account to take advantage of the high interest rates. The account opened with no trouble and I attempted to transfer money from my bank to the credit union. After two days I was locked out of my account and the transfer was cancelled. When I called to inquire about what was going on with my account, they told me it had been closed but would not give me a reason why. I spoke to two different people who told me two different things, but would not confirm anything with me. They said I was not eligible to open another one and that an explanation letter would be mailed to me. No letter came, however a debit card and a welcome letter came after the account was closed. I did not attempt to pursue it further and I decided to go to another financial institution with my savings.

My average minimum balance for ****** May, *********** were $1084.04, $771.74, $572.12 & $534.98, respectively. Per their advertised promotion, I should have been credited the $250 on or before 7/30/23. On 8/1/23, I called USAlliance customer service and talked to ********************** first told me that she checked with her supervisor and was told to look at my account & see if there was any instance where the balance fell below $500 and, if she found any, she was to tell me that that was why I didn't get the bonus. ******* initially expained that I did not get awarded the bonus because my balance dropped to $490 for 5 days in July. After 40 minutes of reading over the actual offer w/*******, explaining to ******* how to calculate AVERAGE minimum balances and ******* going back and forth to verify the math with her supervisor, ******* acknowledged that I did make 3 consecutive qualifying deposits and that my average minimum balance was above $500 for 3 consecutive months. She told me she would forward those details to the promotion department so that they would have all of the facts on hand when they received the case and that I should hear back from USAlliance in 1-3 days. I have yet to receive a response from USAlliance or the bonus.

      I opened an account with US Alliance May in an effort to have an account when I am back home in ** visiting. It has been a complete nightmare. They took a US Treasury check and attempted to hold it for 14 days. I Fought to get the check released, they blocked me at every turn to get my funds out of the account. Refusing to give me assistance because they felt I didn't have enough time with them. The only transaction I was able to do on the account was in their shared branches. July 12th I logged into my account and saw ***** was missing. 4 transfers to another member had occured within minutes of each other 3 stating for rent and one for a mortgage. I called immediately for Help. Was told an investigation would take place and be completed in 1-2 days. Thursday 7/13 I called and was told a form would be sent to me NO FORM WAS SENT. 7/14 Friday I called was sent a form and told I had to get a police report. I filed a police report with local police and called back and provided the case number.

      Their payment website was on the ***** for days so I mailed my credit card payment ten days before due date. They claim they did not receive it and said it was past due and charged me a late fee. I want the late payment notation removed and the late fee removed.

      My card was charge in excess by an unauthorized user multiple times starting on 5/27-5/29 2022. I was notified through a text message banking alert that there might fraudulent transactions on my card through US Alliance. Since it was the Saturday before Memorial Day, I immediately reported my card as stolen/compromised-but charges somehow still got through on Sunday. I then called them 5/31. While speaking with an associate, they sent me a Fraud Dispute Form to which I completed and sent back to them detailing all the transactions. That Friday night 6/3, I received an email from US Alliance notifying me that they were "voiding" my dispute form because the merchant were the fraud charges occurred refunded me money back and that somehow establishes a relationship. I tend called them back and told them I have no idea as to why the merchant refunded my money back but I never authorized the approx. $ **** that was charged in the first place. They informed me that I need to get in contact with the merchant. I have told them the merchant isn't answering any calls or emails and now US Alliance is going to hold me responsible for $**** worth of fraudulent charges that is now on my credit.The Transactions I am referencing are listed below**** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ *********** *** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ************** *** ******* ** *********** ************ ***********
