Complaint:
I tried to open a XXXX Secured Credit Card. 

They attacked my credit score after refusing to close the account, and insisting that I pay the monthly installment for a card I didn't have, that they were reporting to the credit bureaus as a secured loan. 

This is illegal. 

I did not have any funds, nor were any provided to me. They used this as a mechanism to threaten me and my credit score.

I never received a card and never agreed to a loan, I agreed to a Secured Credit Card, of which they did not send me, and committed fraud, effectively flicking me off, and creating a loan application on my credit report, and then pretending I wasn't paying the loan. It is extremely illegal, and credit fraud, loan fraud, credit reporting fraud, credit score fraud and extortion.
