Consumer Complaint: I had a past due balance of {$710.00} which I paid in full XX/XX/XXXX. I received two finance charges on XX/XX/XXXX {$2.00} and {$3.00}. I called comenity XXXX in XXXX and the rep said she could reversed the charges. This didn't happen. In XXXX messaged XXXX and XXXX XXXX the rep who responded to my inquiry said I was getting charged and I needed to pay. The same thing happened with my other comenity card at XXXX except they reversed the charges because I had paid the account in full. I had been and am getting charged two finance charges a month on each card. I thought having a 0 balance would mean no interest. comenity bank cards are the worst for interest taking advantage of people.

Consumer Complaint: My account due date is on the XXXX of each month. On XX/XX/22 I logged into the app to process my payment at XXXX EST. It showed my payment would not process on time since it was after a XXXX EST cutoff. I had no knowledge of this and thinking it was an error, I tried again but ultimately ended up calling customer service. I was told the app was accurate and the cutoff time of XXXX is shown on page 3 of my electronic billing statement. I disconnected without paying to investigate and found no statement in my email account. So, I called into customer service again. The next representative told me my statement showed as sent electronically. I disputed this and explained I keep all my records and nothing was there. I also usually get a payment reminder via email each month and found nothing was sent this time. The representative said they do not send reminders but I have records proving otherwise. I was told there was nothing that could be done about the fees. The representative told me as a courtesy that beginning in XXXX they were changing cutoff times by 1 hour. So now payments must be made by XXXX EST. I have received no notice of this change as a cardholder and according to the company website their cutoff time is XXXX EST. With this in mind, my payment would have been on time and would negated any late fee IF I hadn't gone through 2 representatives before ultimately paying on the app. According to my research, code 1026 states the cutoff times must be clearly identified on the billing statement. This is not the case and no notice was given to educate consumers on a new cutoff time. It is only found in small print on the last page of the statement. Furthermore the website provides misleading information of cutoff times. I've never been late on this account until now which resulted in a {$30.00} late fee. I was given a one time credit of {$15.00} through the automated system on XX/XX/22 which will be credited within the next 1-2 billing cycles. I feel the creditor is acting in an unethical manner and would like this to be looked into further please.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Subissue: Debt was paid
Consumer Complaint: I was on a payment plan with Comenity Bank that was covered by insurance. I submitted the paper work and they covered the monthly charges. My escrow company requested a pay-off amount and the check was sent to the wrong mailing address. In the process of trying to locate the payment more time passed. Comenity added an additional {$70.00} to the bill. That amount should have been covered by the insurance per the hardship agreement that was sent in. After the payoff was received that kept raising late fees even though I no longer used the card and sent the amount they said was the payoff amount. Now it's on my credit and I'm getting secondary emails from XXXX XXXX debt collection. This should be removed from my credit and shown as paid as agreed. They turned {$70.00} into {$260.00} debt on my credit report. I called to make sure the check was received and I'm still dealing with this.

Consumer Complaint: I have disputed this account and have reached out to the company/creditors MANY times but failed. This account is being reported inaccurately and incorrectly on my credit report. I was told that Congress had passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ( CARES Act ) to minimize the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, In particular, The CARES Act places important requirements on companies that furnish information to consumer reporting agencies about consumers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Basically, during a pandemic creditor can not report payments as past due, and make proper accommodations to consumers. I see incorrect & inaccurate late marks which is a clear violation of my right under the FCRA. The company has never responded to any of my attempts to obtain any proof or documentation that will prove this account is being reported accurately.
