      My vehicle was towed. In front of all four of my children and i was left stranded. I was not notified by Skyla bank that they would be impounding my vehicle. I fell on hard times and missed payments. But I was not contacted for a resolution. When attempting to work with the bank during the tow they were less than empathetic and left me no information on time frame or solutions. The *** company broke property and I have missing items. This was highly unprofessional as Skyla bank has my email address as another contact. They again did not contact me to inform me they were going to take the vehicle. I am emotionally scarred, the incident was traumatic for me and my children. The tow company has stated more than once they cannot do other than the bank states. Therefore the bank is solely responsible for its negligence, un professionalism and its due diligence in contacting me to work out a reasonable solution. There have been two hurricanes in ******* impacting my ability to obtain employment. I had relocate for safety from an abusive marriage. Why am I being penalized rather than given in good faith ***** and compassion considering I have children with me. The tow company was unprofessional. And I feel violated.

       I am rejecting this response because:

      I would like the fact that I was hung up on and denied the request to speak with a manager addressed.y I was being denied. After receiving what I felt was a disrespectful tone, I asked to speak with her supervisor. She asked why. I told her I didn't like her tone and I wasn't getting a clear explanation of the issue and a resolution that is satisfactory to both parties.. She told me that the supervisor wasn't around. She asked why I was asking for a supervisor, I later asked if I could be transferred to the supervisor's email, after requesting one again. I felt the conversation was getting escalated. She told me to have a good day and ended the call. The last call took place on Friday, February 2, at 10:10 a.m. c.s.t. It lasted 12 minutes. The first call took place on Thursday, January 11 at 11:05 a.m. c.s.t. I also left a voicemail message that wasn't returned.The call left me baffled, upset, and humiliated. I would also like to speak with someone to get clarification on opening the account and why I was denied considering I have opened up accounts with a bank and another credit union since.

      I just did, I haven't received all the funds aback from I'd theft and I want compensation.

      nd it and I told them the rep I spoke woth and the branch only has access to the claim she did which caused more delays. We were going back and forth via email and she stated that it has been resolved as the funds were back into my savings and I told her my credit was impacted since there was a unauthorized cash advance over 1500 done on my personal account and was reported to the agencies which dropped my credit score significantly and they said that they could not do anything else about it as the credit will adjust itself. This isn't right and I want funds for this

      Mr. Robinson                                     ,

      Skyla Federal Credit Union has reviewed your submitted BBB
      complaint #********. The results of the review are as follows:

      Skyla FCU would be unable to detect any unauthorized
      activity or account access to a member’s account until the activity is reported
      by the account holder.

      According to our records, on December 22, 2022, you
      reported and filed a claim for unauthorized activity that had occurred on your
      account and credit card between December 20th and December 21st,
      2002. Your claim totaled $4,635.00. On the same day, your primary accounts were
      closed to prevent further unauthorized activity. 

      In accordance with regulations, the credit union must
      investigate reports of unauthorized account activity and correct any discovered
      errors within ten (10) business days of the claim. If the credit union is
      unable to resolve the issue within ten (10) business days or more time is
      needed, we may continue investigating up to 45 days. However, we must provide
      you with a temporary credit within ten (10) business days for the amount you
      believe is in error, so that you may have use of those funds until our
      investigation is complete.

      According to our records, your account received a credit
      for the reported unauthorized activity, totaling $4,635.00 on January 4, 2023;
      thus, meeting the ten (10) business day deadline.

      Finally, in accordance with regulations, if an
      institution furnishes data to a national credit bureau reporting agency, that
      information must be accurate. Due to the pending investigation, the December
      status and balance of your credit card, at the time of data furnishing to the
      nation credit bureau, was reported accurately.

      Our investigation was closed on January 4, 2023, when all
      unauthorized funds were re-credited to your savings account since that was the
      account used to make the unauthorized withdrawals; including the funds that
      were advanced from your credit card and deposited to your savings account. Our
      records do indicate that a large payment was made to your credit card on
      January 31, 2023. Therefore, any data that was furnished to a national credit
      bureau agency after January 31, 2023, would reflect the current status and
      balance of your credit card.

      Skyla FCU has thoroughly reviewed the BBB complaint and
      considers the investigation closed.

       I am rejecting this response because:  

      They just told me information I already know. The report shouldn't had been done I never authorized the transactions so my credit score decreasing from that timeframe in January 2023 should have never been reported and if so it should be reported to the bureaus are inaccurate or unauthorized since it was reported fraud. My score hasn't increased to where it was since this incident. Also requested compensation due to me having to constantly call them and that is how I got the first bit of funds since I told them I had issues paying my bills since they still didn't give me my money back in my savings account. 







      Business Response

      Date: 03/20/2023

      We are unable to provide any additional information from the initial response. The credit card balance for December 2022 and January 2023 were reported on time and with the current information at that time. While we recognize that the December 2022 credit card balance may have contained a higher balance due to fraud, institutions are not able to report part of a balance as fraud and another part as non-fraud. When the balance was reported again in January, the balance had returned to normal. As we are not in control of the credit bureau's scoring calculations, we are unable to explain why the credit score did not return to the same score as it was prior to the fraud. 

      We are also unable to see where the member is due any additional reimbursement of funds. All unauthorized funds, totaling $4,635.00, that were withdrawn from the savings and/or checking account was refunded on January 4, 2023.

      Customer Answer

      Date: 03/21/2023

       I am rejecting this response because:




      I want reimbursement for the time I've spent trying to correct this due to your fraud time incompetencies on recognizing a fraud action which led to all of this. I had to consistently call back I never got a call from you all about this or the status the customer service was terrible. Each time I called and they can check the rep never saw my claim so I had to constantly repeat myself and tell them what happened and that it was filed at the branch which they don't have access of seeing. This has taken away from my job as I spent a lot of phone time with you guys and that affects my money as I can't close as many files for my job since I took away from there to contact them. As it relates to how they feel I am not owed anything they had to give me some type of credit cause I didn't have funds to pay my credit card bills and impacted my account where they lowered my credit limit due to the miss payment while I waited for you all to return my funds. It lowered more than 5k and cause my score to decrease since the credit limit was lowered

      Mr. *****,

      Premier FCU, KNA Charlotte Metro Federal Credit Union
      (CMCU), has review your submitted BBB complaints #******** and #********. The
      results of the review are as follows:

      In response to a $3629.49 credit card billing dispute
      filed by you on February 22, 2022 against a merchant, CMCU issued a provisional
      credit to your credit card account in the amount of $3,309.24 on March 8, 2022 for use
      while the dispute was investigated. This was the provisional credit amount since
      the merchant had already applied a partial credit of $320.25 on February 18, 2022.

      In accordance with billing dispute rules, CMCU and the
      merchant conducted an investigation and upon conclusion, the dispute was
      decided in your favor on May 2, 2022. It was determined that the provisional
      credit applied to your credit card on March 8, 2022 would remain in place. Inadvertently,
      an additional credit of $3,309.24 was posted to your credit card on May 2, 2022
      at the conclusion of the investigation.

      The duplicate credit posting was discovered on September
      12, 2022. CMCU issued communication to you concerning the duplicate credit
      posting and notification that the duplication would be reversed from your
      credit card on September 19, 2022.

      CMCU has thoroughly reviewed both BBB complaints
      and considers the investigation closed.
