Issue: Fees or interest

Subissue: Problem with fees

Consumer Complaint: This is the original message that was sent with first complaint. Then the complaint was closed with company providing not correct information and not replying to my complaint. " I have made a purchase but after 3.5 weeks, this purchase was returned. Before making a payment, I waited until the refund was posted and by the time refund posted, credit card company posted a late fee and interest charge. I have contacted them and explained what happened, they have removed the late fee and said they will remove the interest charge but they never did. The interest charge was {$21.00}. After contacting them again, they told me they refunded the interest charge but it was only {$0.00}. I told them the amount was incorrect, however I was told they refunded full amount of interest charge. It takes them 3-5 business days to reply, and by the time I was dealing with this issue, they charged me additional {$18.00} interest charge because I did not pay my bill in full. I tried contacting them, with no help. They told me they will keep adding additional interest until I pay my account in full. I owed nothing on my account except that {$21.00} interest charge and now it's up to {$40.00}. They will not work with me to resolve this issue. '' Here 's the response from the company : " The account terms are explained in the Credit Card Agreement. When payments aren't received, are made for less than the minimum required, or are received after the due date cutoff time, we'll assess a late fee to the account. In addition, we'll assess a finance charge or minimum interest charge any time the full balance in the regular revolving credit plan is not paid by the payment due date. On XX/XX/2022, we applied a courtesy late fee credit of {$30.00} along with the associated finance charge of {$0.00}. '' My feedback to that response. I have stated that you have refunded the late fee, and I am grateful for that, however when you said you refunded the finance charge, it was only {$0.00} and not {$21.00}. If you would have refunded the correct amount, I wouldn't be here, and while we were trying to resolve this, you have charged me additional {$18.00} interest, because I did not pay the initial interest charge. You knew we are trying to resolve this, why would you purposefully charge me additional interested on top of the previous interest? I also closed my account over a month ago.

Subissue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Consumer Complaint: My account recently changed from XXXX to this company. Recently I noticed that I had a negative balance for my rewards. I have not had any returns or credit to my account so I don't know how a negative balance can even happen. On XX/XX/2022 I contacted the company via their secure message center to find out what was going on. On XX/XX/2022 they responded and said I needed to call customer service. On XX/XX/2022 I responded and said for my protection I want all correspondence to be done in writing. On XX/XX/2022 they responded and requested I call again. I responded and told them I would find ways to file complaints and we can go that way because I want the protection of the information in writing. I don't want someone to lie to me on the phone. This sort of behavior seems really unethical by the company. What are they trying to hide that they don't want to put the answer in writing? Are they doing something wrong? Illegal? Do then not want to admit that they stole my rewards and gave me a negative balance in writing because they know that I am entitled to those? Are they just like most large companies where they try to take advantage of low customer. I think we need some answers her and for the company to address this unethical behavior. It seems the company doesn't want to use the secure message center they have on their site. For that reason, I request that the company contact me in writing either by my email or by the regular mail. I've attempted to use their system and they have shown the inability to answer the issue that way, so to ensure I get a response, I have giving two reasonable options for the company in contacting me.
