Issue: Other features, terms, or problems

Subissue: Other problem

Consumer Complaint: Comenity company has bought out all my store cards XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I originally applied for the card with the store. However, Comenity bought out all my accounts and now I make my payments to Comenity. Now, Comenity is sabotaging my credit score and credit report. They decided to drop all credit lines since I had a deregotory mark on my credit report ( I had a XXXX XXXX bill placed in Collections ). However, I have made my payments on time and was building my credit. We are trying to purchase a home and now our dreams have been destroyed by this company. Their customer service is over seas and they are unable to assist. A company should not have a monopoly on all credit cards and then have the ability to drop all my credit lines.

I have been charged XXXX late fees of {$30.00}, XXXX of {$40.00} and a return check fee of {$30.00}. I have excellent credit and have never been in this situation before. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I tried to sent a secure message which is shown on Comenity 's site and after completing the message and attaching the attachments a message said that the attachments would not attach but I could send the message without the attachements. It could not be sent. I did send a letter via snail mail on XX/XX/XXXX as per their request showing the information they requested and when I called on XX/XX/XXXX, they said they did not receive my correspondence. They do not have email or fax only regular mail. I have paid them everything I owe including my last payment of {$96.00}. the only thing outstanding are the fees and interest totaling {$100.00} which is due XX/XX/XXXX. Please advise what to do.

Issue: Closing your account

Subissue: Company closed your account

Consumer Complaint: Hi I was unable to use my Victoria Secret credit Card on XXXX XXXX. I was unaware that it was closed. I was embarrassed as I tried to make a purchase and it declined three times. I then called company to find out and they said it was closed on XX/XX/XXXX. I explained to them that I did not receive a letter or any type of message explaining reason. Theyre answer was they sent it in the mail. I never gotten a letter because I have paperless billing also I never received anything from message center as well. I asked why and they couldnt give me an exact answer. I have been with them since XXXX. I paid on time and just paid them off in XXXX of this year. I am very disappointed that my account has been closed and I did not give Permission to close my account. I have this account for my daughters. I cant understand why this has happened. There is no recitation on me asking to close my account. I have had this account for a long time. I had issues with them before lowering my account and making my credit score drop down. I had to call and inquire about this as well. I dont appreciate it and will not tolerate this type of association with my accounts. I would like this resolved and put into place as I would like my account reopened. This is inconveniencing me as well. Also my daughter is an authorized user. What if she would have gone to make a purchase and was not aware that account was closed. It doesnt make since to pay off a store credit card in beginning of this year and have it closed two months letter without warning. I believe Victoria Secret should at least send out an email or message stating why or telling you to use your card. They send everything else through messages. Best regards
