Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: Early XXXX I purchased several items from XXXX XXXX using my credit card from their company. One item was sent that was completely wrong from what I ordered. I called to let them know and they said they would ship out the proper item and that I needed to return the other item. I informed them that I could not make it to the post office seeing how it was 30 minutes each way. Having to take off for their mistake was out of the question. They informed that was fine. I never received the item that I was being charged for. I called again probably a month later when my bill was due and was sent to 5 or so different people trying to get the right person. I was on the phone for a couple of hours trying to get resolved. I would be put on hold then the phone would get hung up on. After all this I would start to get very frustrated and customer service agent would cut you off or not let you explain anything. I was told finally that I would get my refund and I told them I wanted to cancel the card. So now we are a month later and i was charged interest and still being charged for item and bill is coming up again that im suppose to pay for something I never received. I call again and me and the customer service agent get into it because he refuses to let me finish a sentence. I ask for a manager and he hangs up on me.

Date Received: 2021-08-03

Issue: Fees or interest

Subissue: Unexpected increase in interest rate

Consumer Complaint: I noticed XXXX was charging 2 different finance charges on my bill. Upon questioning them about it, via email and phone call, I was told it was due to their Terms had changed. Now, I was aware of the terms changing, but did not think it would result into 2 different finance charges each month thereafter the terms changing. The only way I could have gotten out of those terms ( according to the supervisor I spoke with ), which was also not stated in the message I was sent online, was to close my card. The way they did this, to me was double billing, in turn against the law according to the Credit Card Accountability and Disclosure Act of 2009. They said its not double billing because of the way their terms are noted. The APR is the same from the past and current Billings. However, Im being charged for the finance charge before the terms changed and the finance charge of after the terms changed. This just does not seem right. I have closed my account with them as of today due to all of this.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: I have previously filed a complaint with cfpb on XX/XX/XXXX and my complaint ID is XXXX. This complaint is against Comenity Bank and their reporting of 4 Fraudulent accounts being reported to the credit bureaus. I have provided all documentation I can provide to the best of my ability and after my complaint there was no resolution to the accounts being reported. I am a victim of Identity theft and I first contacted Comenity Bank regarding four accounts that were opened and utilized by the individual who stole my identity on XX/XX/XXXX ( this individual was a family member who resided with me for a period of time ). They replied to me and stated that even after I provided a notarized Identity theft affidavit that they see no basis of my claim and that the debt of all 4 accounts belongs to me. I have also contacted the credit bureaus regarding these accounts and both XXXX and XXXX have honored my claim but XXXX has not. I contacted Comenity Bank again XX/XX/XXXX and I have only received a decision regarding one of the accounts however they have not acknowledged the remaining 3 and all 4 accounts are still being reported by XXXX to date. I am also still receiving collection calls and letters regarding one of the accounts that was sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX and all three credit bureaus are currently reporting this account as a collections account. Please also keep in mind the 3 remaining accounts on XXXX are reporting charged off every single month for the last year which is a violation of the FCRA.
