Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
In late XX/XX/2022 I completed the requirements to achieve " Titanium Status '' through my American Express XXXX card and XXXX XXXX  Account ( XXXX ). When achieving XXXX XXXX the member is entitled to a selection of rewards that includes a free night and some other options which are of objectively lower value. The member is unable to select the benefit until receiving a notice from XXXX. I checked for this notice as well as inside the app daily from the time I completed the requirements but no selection was possible. In XXXX I received a notice from XXXX informing me that I have selected " 5 suite nights ''. This is a worthless benefit of no value to titanium members because titanium members are always entitled to free upgrades to a suite when available. When I complained numerous times about this no action was taken to correct the problem. 

To be clear I did not make or approve any " automatic selection '' I did not receive any notice to make a selection and when I checked the XXXX website and the XXXX  app daily no opportunity to select an award was available. 

This card carries an extremely high annual fee of {$650.00} and is not acceptable to allow XXXX to cheat the card holders out of the rightfully earned benefits. 

I also have a friend holding the same card who received the exact same treatment from XXXX XXXX and Amex. This is a fraudulent bait and switch on the benefits.

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern : I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well, I want these accounts deleted if they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back to me? I saw on a Credit Site and Board where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them. 

Collection Account : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Please investigate if every piece of information is correct on the reported late payment history. If the late payments are not reporting 100 percent accurate, please remove them from this account and update the account as paid as agreed I also read where I can get the updated report after you investigate this from the Free Lawyer guy. Could you please send it to me? Also, please let me know who had access to my file as well. I want the investigation outcome to be sent to the address. Thank you for your time and help in this matter.

NELNET has confirmed that they are reporting incorrectly on my student loans. They show delinquent in XXXX of 2013 when in fact the loans were deferred during that time.

The loan with original balance of {$10000.00} has been corrected. The loan on this same account with original balance of {$6000.00} is still showing as delinquent. Please remove this information as promised in your letter attached in this complaint.
