Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: MD
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Unexpected or other fees

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX, my credit card was used by a unauthorized user. Comenity quickly took action to investigate the problem and credited my account, however, in the meantime, they shut down the account and reactivated a new credit account. In XXXX, I paid off the balance due using the previous account number as the bill still referenced this number. In XXXX it was identified that my payment had not credited to the account. During this time, Comenity banking systems were hacked and customers could not access their accounts nor get assistance from the Customer Care Team. Eventually, their systems were restored. In XXXX, I was told that I would need to get a letter from my bill pay provider with the payment information for Comenity to investigate and identify where the payment went. Since then on a monthly basis, I continue to receive a bill from Comenity and I directly folllow up on the status of their investigation. On XX/XX/XXXX, Comenity issued a letter to me, advising the payment made was returned to me due to an invalid account number. No details as to where and when the money was returned. I immediately contacted them for this information as my bank has not received these funds. When contacting Comenity, they evade customer questions giving generic/standard responses. I escalated my call to a manager, that said she would inquire and get back to me within a couple days. However, this to was false, I never heard back from the manager. Since then, I received a new letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, advising that my " claim '' has been received and needs to be investigated and I should allow them up to 90 days for them to complete the investigation. I has spent endless hours trying to resolve this with Comenity. Each time I call, I get tossed around, and their staff seem to be uninformed on how processes work. It should be simple to provide the customer with bank/ACH information for the returned funds. My bank simply needs this information to locate the funds. I am done with worrying about this matter and need resolution. I would not recommend anyone to open an account with Comenity. I want to know what I can do to get this resolved.

Complaint:
Hello there and thank you for helping, I wanted to reach out because I am not receiving any statements or alerts. 

I have never been late, and have always made my payments on time. 

However recently my credit report shows that the XXXX XXXX was reflecting 30 days late, however as you guys can see I did not have access to any of my devices. 

I have the XXXX work authorization forms showing that I had no access to any of my devices for me to be able to make a payment, and even if I attempted to make a payment online it requested a two factor authentication code that I could not receive. 

I reached out to customer service who was no help, I have made a payment and then please requesting to have the negative impact removed from my credit report. 

I never received any physical statements when my bill was delinquent, I understand XXXX and XXXX XXXX is trying to go green however they should still mail a statement to be safe and to ensure their customer is indeed receiving communication that is not electronic.
