Consumer Narrative
On the night of XX/XX/2021, I logged into my Moneylion bank account to find that my balance was at {$0.00}. Around {$9000.00} was missing from my acct. I immediately called customer service and the representative went over numerous multiple back to back charges at gas station/convenience stores located in or around XXXX, Ca. I have never been to that area of California and over the past XXXX I havent gone further than XXXX away from my home in XXXX XXXX XXXX Ca XXXX My debit card has also never left my possession nor does anyone have access to it. Due to Covid the number of people I see on a daily basis is extremely limited and my debit card has never left my possession. I still have my debit card that has since been deactivated. I asked the representative for detailed statements detailing all the unauthorized charges because I was only able to view very limited details through the app and only about the past 20 or so transactions. She stated I could get detailed statements through the fraud dept and she emailed me fraudulent charges paperwork to be filled out and returned, which I returned immediately. On XXXX XXXX 2021 I received an email stating that the paperwork I filled out and sent as an attachment in an email, could not be opened and that I needed to resubmit paperwork as a PDF file. On XXXX 2021 I resubmitted the paperwork as a PDF. I resubmitted paperwork on XXXX XXXX and I sent a separate email to the fraud dept. explaining that I had resubmitted the paperwork and I would like confirmation and that I would also need to see my detailed statements. On XXXX XXXX I received confirmation that my paperwork was received. At the time I filed police reports with the XXXX XXXX PD and also with Police dept in XXXX, Ca using the details I could remember from the initial phone call to report the unauthorized charges. I was told on the intial phone call that I would receive provisional funds within 10 business days. After 10 business days I began calling because I had not received my funds back into my account. Numerous days I sat on hold for over an hour and when it reached XXXX my time, I would be hung up on or transferred to general customer service because the fraud dept was now closed. I work XXXX and was having to miss work to make these phone calls. On XXXX XXXX at approx XXXX I got through to someone in the fraud dept. who verified my paperwork had been received but due to it being the end of the day he would have to return a call to me in the morning. I never received a call, at this point Im at a loss. XXXX was ruined as I had no money, that money was every dime I had been saving up and its gone and I have zero faith in getting it back at this point. A coworker suggested I try to get help through CFPB.
