Issue: Getting a credit card

Subissue: Card opened as result of identity theft or fraud

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2022, I received a note from XXXX XXXX XXXX that my credit report was accessed by Comenity/Ulta fraudulently to open up a credit card in my name without my consent. I contacted Comenity to flag this account for fraud, and they mentioned that the person who opened the credit card provided the wrong birth date and phone number, yet was still provided approval for the credit card and subsequent purchases, which amounted to about 650 . I have since locked and frozen my credit at the various credit reporting agencies. Comenity is currently investigating this issue, with an eta for resolution in 90 days.

Issue: Problem when making payments

Subissue: You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due

Consumer Complaint: I received in XX/XX/XXXX a refund check from Comenity Bank for my ( now closed ) XXXX credit card account ( XXXX sent a notice over a year ago that they were no longer accepting purchases using their credit card ). The check was in the amount of {$340.00} and there was no explanation of what the refund was for. I cashed the check and then on XX/XX/XXXX, I get a bill saying that I owe this amount and the explanation was " XX/XX/XXXX Misposted Payment ''. I called the bank and was told to send a letter, which is attached hereto. That amount sounded familiar and I realized that it was the same dollar amount that was disputed in a claim filed with you against the bank by my mother, XXXX XXXX. That amount was paid 2 days earlier than due ( per her bank statement ), but yet the bank ( which had taken over the XXXX credit card accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX ) added interest and penalties to her next monthly bill. I do not have the bill ( s ) showing where my {$340.00} came from and requested same in my letter. I was told it would take up to 90 days to resolve this matter. In the meantime, they have on record that I am disputing it so that there will be no interest or penalties incurred.
