I sent the below letter to Bank of America for a resolution, which they denied. I believe their actions are unjust. 

I am writing you with a very heavy heart. I am extremely dishearten and dissatisfied with the level of insensitivity and lack of understanding and communications received from Bank of America 's representatives regarding my closed account, now " charged off ''. I am requesting the charge off be reversed due to miscommunications and technicality. In XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with a representative, who I notified that I was having hardship ( became unemployed ). She notified me that my account would be charged off on XX/XX/XXXX. Being XX/XX/XXXX was on a Saturday ( weekend ). I paid the bill on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, which was paid the next business day, XX/XX/XXXX. I had no idea my account would be charged off on a weekend and neither was I explained this information in detailed. 

Additional information : I also was told that I had a cease and desist order on my account, which too was puzzling. I never requested a cease and desist and was never told such an order would be put on my account when requesting not to contacted via telephone. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, the represented mentioned that the cease and desist stopped all phone calls and correspondence, which I would have never agreed to. Requesting not to receive phone calls is totally different then not receiving mail. I never knew there was an issue until now, because I was still receiving my monthly statements. Therefore, I did n't get any reminder notice for the upcoming charge off or notice of the actual charge off or any notice pertaining to this cease and desist order that I did not consent to. 

I have had several hardships during the course of this account from being unemployment several times, XXXX, newborn ( a bundle of joy, nevertheless a financial adversity ), accepting a XXXX " only '' XXXX position, which was insufficient, thus having to move in with my mother, then recently in XX/XX/XXXX, becoming unemployed again. Through it all, I did the best I could. Now, that I have almost completed my payment in full, it is quite unfair and disappointing to receive a charge-off on my account for a difference of XXXX days, of which XXXX were weekend days. Furthermore, I never receive any notification pertaining to this charge-off, due to the above mentioned unauthorized communications disconnect. I thought Bank of America was in the business of helping people and that Bank of America would much rather see me pay my bill and build up my credit vs. damage my credit with a derogatory " charge-off ''. 

I am asking that you have compassion, thereby reversing the charge-off on the aforementioned account, in so doing allowing me to pay my outstanding balance in the amount of {$1200.00} without such a steep penalty. I really like Bank of America and hope to be a customer again, when my financial situation changes for the better. 

Thank you kindly for your consideration, time and immediate attention to this matter. Providing you require additional information, please feel free to contact me.
