What is the name of your state? California.
I have only checking account with Bank of America, and never applied for any credit card, except using their check card since the day I opened the account around 3 years before.
On nov 21st, Bank of america credit checked with my ssn and issued a credit which I have not asked either in banking center, over phone, internet or in any other form. Similarly, they have issued a credit card fro my spouse. I came to know when I received my card by mail. Based on my friend's advice, I did a self credit check with all three bureaus and found Bank of America has made one credit check on Nov 21, 2006.
Similar incident happened six years before when I opened an account with bank of america in Jan 1999 and I got unwanted card by nov end, especially during the xmas holidays. I got wild and closed the credit card and all accounts with bank of america.
Now, I do not want to leave them, and would like take an official action against them for unauthorized credit checking, and fraudulently issuing credit cards, and deliberate attempt made on my credit history. I understand the motive behind their credit card issue as they people would silently accept the credit card during Xmas session for extra expenditure.
I sent an email to [email protected], and no reply, eternal silence.
I am filing complaints with office of the Comptroller of the Currency in next two days.
What should I do? Experts please guide me the options.
