Date of Complaint: June 29, 2020
Company Official Name: PNC Bank N.A.
State: PA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-Product: Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-Issue: Transaction was not authorized
Full Complaint:
I sold a stock on XXXX for {.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, and my bank account was mysteriously removed from the app. XXXX reversed the transaction as a result and took my earnings from the stock, and also charged a {.00} fee for reversing the transaction. The app ‘s service used for connecting bank accounts to XXXX, known as XXXX, has not allowed me to connect my bank account to XXXX. Over the past three weeks, I have tried connecting my bank account to XXXX, but to no avail.
I also tried to pay a friend on XXXX because he put a down payment on an XXXX we rented for vacation. XXXX also uses XXXX to connect bank accounts. For some reason, PNC is unable to connect to XXXX as well, and I haven’t been able to make transactions on XXXX during the same time frame as the encounter with XXXX.
Today, XXXX gave me the option to file a complaint to the CFPB, and I’m hoping this can solve the issues I’ve been dealing with regarding my bank account and other applications.

Full Complaint:
I cl
osed my PNC checking account on the XX/XX/XXXX via telephone and was told that a certified check for all remaining funds ( { 000.00} ) should arrive via mail within 2-4 business weeks. On XX/XX/XXXX I called PNC back because I had not received the check. I was told that the issue would be escalated to their customer service team and that I would receive a call from them.
I received an email and call from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX, XXXX ) of PNC on XX/XX/XXXX. After connecting with XXXX, I was required to fill out an indemnification form, have it notarized, and return to a local PNC branch in order to receive my funds.
The indemnification form was submitted to the branch on XX/XX/XXXX and I have not received any additional communication from PNC as of today XX/XX/XXXX.
Seven weeks and counting without receipt of my funds is unacceptable.
