- Type of product involved (i.e., Checking Account, Mortgage Loan, Certificate of Deposit, etc.);
- Detailed explanation of the issue including events in the order in which they occurred, names and phone numbers of individuals involved, amounts and dates of any transactions, and any other information that will enable us to thoroughly understand your concerns;
