    Government Actions
    Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
    CFPB vs Wells Fargo (File No: 2022-CFPB-0011)

    On December 20, 2022, Wells Fargo Bank agreed to settle allegations (File No: 2022-CFPB-0011) brought against the company by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

     

    The enforcement action taken by CFPB, stems from allegations that Wells Fargo Bank caused the repossession of vehicles due to the systematic failure of servicing their automobile loans, caused homes to go into foreclosure due to the improper denial of thousands of mortgage loan modifications,  overdraft fees charged to consumers despite having enough money in their account to cover the transaction at the time the bank authorized it and froze more than a million accounts based on faulty automated filters.

     

    According to the settlement, without any admission of liability Wells Fargo has agreed to pay more than $2 billion to those affected by their actions and $1.7 billion in civil penalties.
