Issue: Communication tactics

Subissue: Frequent or repeated calls

Consumer Complaint: I lost my job due to COVID, I have had an Express Clothing Store Credit card for years and now very behind on payments. COMENITY BANK has not only tried contacting me but they are also calling my mother-in-law, whom lives in a different state not listed on any of my financials. My XXXX year old son, during school hours. They are not only requesting to get my contact information or questions about my whereabouts, they are telling them details of my debt and the legal implications if I dont call. I never gave them permission to discuss anything with anyone. They are leaving messages as if they were calling my phone..messages directed to me and not them.

Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2021 I was at XXXX XXXX in XXXX, PA, XXXX. I thought I was scheduling my upcoming oral XXXX. They had me sign a form on a tablet, which I assumed was permission for my XXXX. Unknown to me, I was signing a new Credit Inquiry for them of {$1400.00}, that they wanted in order for them to even do the XXXX! I have called Comenity Capital Bank, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to no avail. I was on the phone 3-way with XXXX before my appointment, and with my insurance company, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX was assured that I was fully covered. I am trying to repair my credit, and I do not want this Hard Inquiry on my report for 2 years, whenever I did not authorize it in the first place!

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. The 3 Credit Bureaus are reporting inaccurate information on CCB/XXXX and CB/XXXX. The 3 Credit Bureaus are also reporting this company to be the owner of the debt when they are not! These accounts were transferred or sold to another company and I tried contacting 3 Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with these accounts for me to review the exact date on which the charge-off was posted. The 3 Credit Bureau can validate this information by investigating the matter and MUST correct or remove the defamatory information they are currently reporting. I'm not swayed that Bureaus efficiently pleased the principles of the Fair Credit Reporting Act in completing their investigation. Please REMOVE these accounts immediately.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: Despite my previous query letters to your department, the most recent credit report I reviewed indicates that this record is being accounted for incorrectly and inaccurately. This file is used to keep track of various " infringement '' declarations. I don't believe the circumstances surrounding this record are accurate. Ensure that reliable, fair, and comprehensive reporting is done! In order to validate or refute my point, I demand proof that you followed all of the proper and fair procedures.

Issue: Fees or interest

Subissue: Problem with fees

Consumer Complaint: Please refer to the attached for full copy of statements XXXX XXXX The last purchase made with my Victoria Secrets card occured on XX/XX/XXXX which showed up on XXXX 's statement, due XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, I made the payment too close to the due date ( XXXX ) and it was received on the XXXX, generating a late fee and interest charge, for a total of {$31.00}, due on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, a new payment for the amount due was made, leaving a {$0.00} balance in the account. And, again, I have not used the card since XXXX, so I was not tracking the account any more at this point. Here is where the unfair, unexplained and incoherent transaction starts. In my opinion a system error. A new " Fee Charged '' for {$2.00} was applied to the account on XX/XX/XXXX. This has no explanation whatsoever. Considering I've already paid my dues, actually 15 days earlier ( paid XXXX, due XX/XX/XXXX ) The {$2.00} generated late fees and more interest and late fees over and over. The balance grew up to {$30.00} ( breakdown below ). XXXX {$2.00} interest XXXX {$2.00} late fee XXXX {$2.00} interest XXXX {$6.00} late fee XXXX {$2.00} interest XXXX {$14.00} late fee XXXX {$2.00} interest On XX/XX/XXXX I received a paper statement ( while I'm signed up for eDelivery ) showing a total of {$30.00} balance due on XX/XX/XXXX. I should've not paid it at this time, however I did. A full payment was made, again on XXXX. Today, I noticed a new balance for {$2.00} posted in the account. I went and paid it. But not fully convinced of what is happening, I decided to call Customer Service and discuss. Spoke to XXXX with client service, and she understood the situation and credited the {$2.00} I had just paid. And offered me to transfer the call to her supervisor to apply the credit for the {$30.00} previously paid, as she was not able to process it. XXXX, XXXX 's supervisor, argued with me from the beginning, repeating herself and not listening to the full analysis I've prepared, before I called them. So I requested her to transfer me to her manager or a higher up agent. Then I was transferred to XXXX, Senior manager. Again, arguing and advising me to refer to the statements which were black and white, clear enough to anyone or close the account if I disagree to their terms and conditions. I explained, several times, that I did not disagree of being charged for the late fee in XXXX. however if I had until XX/XX/XXXX to pay {$31.00} and had paid that amount on XXXX, basically 15 days in advance, why am I being charged {$2.00} again in XXXX. It just makes no sense. This call was on for almost an hour. And if they really recorded it, I hope you could listen to it.
