    Dear Mr. ****************** am writing to acknowledge receipt of the complaint filed by Mr. ******* ****************, ID #********, which was originally submitted on August 23, 2024.

     I apologize for the delay in our response, as this case was previously directed to an individual who is no longer with GFA Federal Credit Union. Additionally, the voicemail notification you left earlier today was our first clear notice of this issue. The previous email sent was flagged as spam/suspicious in our system, which contributed to the oversight. I have now white-listed the domain to prevent further issues.

    We take this matter seriously and are actively working to gather the necessary details to ensure a thorough investigation. ***'s Compliance and Risk Officer attempted to contact Mr. **************** via the phone number provided, but the call could not go through. She has sent an email requesting additional information to help move the investigation forward.

    At this time, our records do not show Mr. **************** as an account holder at **********************. Therefore, we require further information from him, including a police report or FTC affidavit, government-issued ID, and proof of address, to continue our investigation.

    This is my first time responding to a BBB complaint, and any guidance or feedback you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, I would like to thank you in advance for your assistance in helping us update our contact information to avoid similar issues in the future.

    We will provide updates in real time as we receive more information.

    Thank you for your understanding, and we appreciate your continued support in resolving this matter promptly.

    Sincerely,

Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?

BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
