Consumer complaint received 2023-02-28
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: VA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Charged too much interest

Complaint:
I have an issue with a 0 % balance transfer offer from Bank of America. This is the first time I accepted a 0 % offer for a credit card that I actually use ( I actually have to use it in order to take advantage of the deals with co-branded company, in this case XXXX XXXXXXXX. ). 
After transferring, I made a purchase. I was charged some interest on this purchase. After calling in about it, I was told by Bank of America that all I needed to do was to pay off any purchases immediately, and pay the minimum balance on the card ( which is based on the balance transfer ). I was told that if I did this, the interest would be minimal. 
To my great surprise, When I booked my airline tickets, and paid the exact amount of the tickets on the card account, I was charged a total of ~ {$28.00} over two months. When I called back, the agent told me I should just avoid using the card for purchases ( again, that is not possible because I HAVE to use that card to take advantage of a yearly offer with XXXX XXXXXXXX for a {$99.00} companion fare ). 
She explained ( as did a manager when I escalated to get the interest refunded- and did not ) that even though I processed the payment the XXXX day that I charged it, the interest is based on the whole billing cycle of 30 days. 
I find this very deceptive and unintuitive, that if I am basically taking a 1-day loan from the bank, they are going to charge me one month of interest. Of course this is detailed in the fine print, but I don't read 20 pages of fine print. A regular credit card does not work this way. If you pay the balance, you don't pay interest. 
Why does Bank of America even offer a 0 % offer on a card that people " must '' use as it is a co-branded card where you need to use it to get the deals? It is basically a trap to get excess interest fees. 

Here are the related charges and interest fees as they show up on the statement : XXXX Statement ( XX/XX/XXXX ) XX/XX/XXXX : Travel insurance charge : {$79.00} XX/XX/XXXX : Payment I made ( they reflected even before the charges below ) : {$190.00} ( minimum payment for the month ) XX/XX/XXXX : Payment I made to cover the Travel insurance and Flights : {$1300.00} XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX XXXXXXXX charge : {$1100.00} XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX XXXX charge : {$150.00} XX/XX/XXXX : Interest charged ( which was refunded when I called in ) : {$3.00} XX/XX/XXXX : {$24.00} interest charge Just to make sure it's clear, I was charged a total of {$24.00} on a loan of XXXX that I actually paid off ONE DAY BEFORE it was even charged to the bank ( so in reality it wasn't even a loan as I paid it before Bank of America even sent it to XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: Jim Bottin Enterprises, Inc
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I spoke/written/emailed all the companies regarding the debt with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/20 I had called XXXX XXXX XXXX and attempted many times to get this account removed and was told by an employee I would have to come inside to cancel, which I am unable to because I live in a different city. 

Later that year when I called and spoke with someone from the gym they said it wasnt an issue and helped me cancel the account over the phone and sent a confirmation/cancellation letter showing a {$0.00} balance. 

They ( XXXX XXXX ) said they were putting an email through to have my fees waived. As I have not been living in the city for over a year and I had the letter. 

Then I received an email from XXXX, I wrote them a letter ( I completed the letter within the timeframe ) and provided the proof for cancellation and debt. 

They continue to hold the debt. 

I have sent letters/emails to all companies with the cancellation letter provided.

Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
n a XXXX Credit Report there was a charge off for a XXXX/XXXX. 
In a recent XX/XX/XXXX Credit Report the same XXXX/XXXX  was showing as a collection. 

I am filing a complain against XXXX, XXXX and Equifax for improper reporting of this charge off on my XXXX Credit report. 

This XXXX/XXXX  collection needs to be deleted as it was shown as a charge off on my XX/XX/XXXX credit report and four years  later somehow it is reporting differently. 

I have attached both credit reports for you to compare. 

This needs to be deleted off of my credit report. 
Thank you, XXXX & XXXX XXXX

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I submitted to Capital One Finance a request to update the Pay Status on or about XXXX. This is separate from a previous dispute regarding the correct payment date. 
1. XXXX updated the report to show XX/XX/XXXX as the correct date. 
2. If the maturity date was XX/XX/XXXX, the item can not be counted as late on XX/XX/XXXX. The date of XX/XX/XXXX would actually be the first late day, as you can not count XX/XX/XXXX as late. From XX/XX/XXXX ( the first late day after maturity date ) to XX/XX/XXXX ( date I paid and effective date ) is 29 days. 
3. 29 days is still not 30 days, therefore the Pay Status needs to be updated to reflect that I was not late. 
4. The delinquent note from XX/XX/XXXX which initiated this dispute, needs to be removed from my report. 
5. XXXX deliberately refuses to correct the PAY STATUS error as I submitted this complaint directly through XXXX.
