Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I entered into a repayment ( settlement ) agreement with American Express with repayment terms as follows : * Balance : {$7600.00} * Term : XXXX XXXX * Due : XXXX of every month or the following business day if XXXX is a weekend or holiday * XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$380.00} ( Due XX/XX/XXXX ) * Pmts XXXX : {$210.00} ( Due XX/XX/XXXX ) * Last XXXX Pmts : $ XXXX I have paid on-time and as agreed, beginning XX/XX/XXXX when the repayment plan began, and again on my XXXX payment in XXXX. 

American Express is still reporting my account to the bureaus as " 120 days late in April '' and " 150 days late in May '' and they are also adding late fees to my account still. 

This is because the settlement is handled by a separate department internally and doesn't seem to communicate to the " other '' customer service department. 

When I call in they route me back and forth in a circular fashion stating " I can't help, check with this department ..., '' etc. 

I am requesting they update my account status to the bureaus to accurately reflect I am paying as agreed and on-time since we began the settlement and repayment terms, and to stop adding late fees for payments made on time under the new agreement.

Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Unexpected increase in interest rate

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I called Comenity Bank US customer service to inquire why I am being charged two different APRs to the balance of my Comenity Bank XXXX XXXX and XXXX 's credit cards, and why both interest rates are so high ; APR on purchases before XX/XX/XXXX is 27.2400 % ; " new '' APR is 29.2400 %. 

On XX/XX/XXXX the balance of my Comenity Bank XXXX 's card was {$950.00} w/minimum payment due {$45.00}. 
As of XX/XX/XXXX my current balance is {$450.00} - a difference of {$500.00} On XX/XX/XXXX the balance of my Comenity Bank XXXX XXXX card was {$1400.00} w/mimimum payment due {$70.00} As of XX/XX/XXXX my current balance is {$500.00} - a difference of {$940.00}. 

It should also be noted that I have two other Comenity Bank Cards which I have paid in full. 

The XX/XX/XXXX balance of my Comenity Bank XXXX XXXX card was {$1000.00} - Current balance XXXX I paid the balance of my Comenity Bank XXXX XXXX card in XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. 

I have NEVER been 60 days late on a payment for any of my Comenity Bank credit cards. I asked if my interest rate could be lowered as I have a decent credit score ( XXXX currently ) AND my accounts have always been in good standing. I have also substantially lowered my credit card balances since the beginning of XXXX. 

The representative told me Comenity has raised APR interest rates for all products and the interest rate could NOT be lowered. The representative stated she did not know why the APR interest rates were increased, nor could she fully explain how the interest rate application was applied to account purchases. She stated the " computers ' track the purchase history and split the interest payments accordingly. 

The representative advised I pay all credit card balances in full within the billing period to avoid interest charges. But offered no other solution to lower my APR interest rates.
