A document that I recently had notarized by Bank of America is being rejected by my university on the grounds that the notary hasn't signed it. While attempting to research this online, I have yet to find definitive answers.
answered on Jan 26, 2023
There are seven (7) items required for the notary to state on each document being notarized:

3. The notarial statement – what is being notarized (i.e. a... Read more »
I went to pay my auto loan off and get my title and they told me they won't give it to me because of a signature loan from 2015, it shows as a closed account on equifax and transunion

You should probably bring proof that you fully paid off the signature loan to your bank. Credit bureau reports probably aren’t enough. You probably need to bring loan statements from the signature loan itself.
I did fully pay the debt with paypal within 8 days

If it was a worthless check, then a charge is possible. It sounds like you have not been charged yet, so do not worry about it unless cited/arrested. Then hire an attorney top get it Diverted, Dismissed and Expunged.
Someone fraudulently cashed a check I sent to pay my trash bill. The trash company never received it, so they still say I owe the bill. Who is responsible for getting the money - the bank, or the trash company?
answered on Jan 13, 2023
Most likely you.
If someone intercepted a check you wrote to pay a bill and wrongly cashed it, you can legally pursue that person and possibly your own bank as well as the bank that cashed the check.
But you do still owe your trash company and should pay it. This time I recommend... Read more »

Not a lot of detail in this question. A lawyer will need a lot more to provide you with your best legal options. However, my suggestion would be to immediately file a complaint with the CFPB. Your bank will have to respond, and this action may allow for a resolution. To the extent you later file a... Read more »

Your post is confusing. Your boyfriend at the time paid your bills for 3 months when you were unemployed. You broke up in March 2022. He reported *what* as fraud? What does this have to do with your credit rating? You didn't connect the dots or dots are missing.
My bank (credit union, actually), with whom I have had accounts for over 25 years, recently froze all of my accounts (2 checking, 2 savings) with assets totaling over $180k, without any warning or notice.
