Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
My mother had a debt that was settled with her retirement home. She got numerous calls after I removed her from the home due to abuse that was reported previous to her moving and after. After that she got a demand letter and a filing from Hunter Warfield for approximately 15k which was never what she owed to start before being settled. XXXX XXXX belittled my elderly mom and scared her. She had me take over trying to deal with him. He and I did not get along and he would not listen so he decided it was best to call my mom and do it over to her. I filed with a lawfirm for her and she spoke to them they said that they could get it settled I said I am not settling for a debt that I dealt with them for that was a year ago. Well about 2 weeks ago I got a collection on my report for XXXX and I have never signed anything for her I was not even in the same state when she went into the retirement home. I started looking for a law firm to sue and see that this is a normal practice of these XXXX. I want to stop this. They need to remove from my report immediately as there are many damages as I support my mom and she has altheimers and I have been looking for a loan for her to get complete medical care that XXXX and XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX will not cover and of course they pulled this and see this collection and now I am unable to do this ... I am contacting all places needed to resolve this and attorney generals. I contacted the original creditor they do not know how they got my social security number so this is very serious in my book.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
Hello, I have been a loyal American Express card customer for more than 20 years, and I have been accumulating membership reward points for many years now. So far I have around XXXX points in my account. I planned my trip with the points in mind to book my return flights. When I was ready to redeem the points to book the last leg of my flights, I got the message : This action will not be completed at this time because your account is currently being reviewed to make sure all eligible purchases meet qualifying criteria. Why????? 

It has been 3 weeks, I am still getting the same message. I called the Membership Reward program 4 times, and the 3rd representative helped me file a complaint, saying they will get back to me in 7-10 days by phone or email. Its been 2 weeks since, and nobody has called or emailed. 
Our trip plan is on hold and we are at risk of losing my already-booked tickets and reservations because American Express is holding my points without providing any information or explanation. 

If we can not use the reward points why did you make them look available? We do use the points to plan trips, not just to look at them. And why are you holding all of my points? I only want to transfer some of the points that I accumulated a long time ago. Why cant I use them? Please explain!

Company: Exeter Finance Corp.
State: IL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Auto debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
Just recently I spoke with a representative from Exeter Finance LLC. I spoke to him about my contract and the fact that even though the CEO said that a part of my contract was not funded, it still makes my the contract void because it has incorrect information on it causing me major confusion. I explained this him and he asked " why didn't you ask questions if you did not properly understand the contract? '' I then replied : " I did ''. Then he went on to say that if i did then i would not be calling about it now. After a long conversation, I asked him for a account XXXX XXXX of my account. He did not know what I meant because he offered to send me a statement of account which I already have. I then told him that i need to see a copy of the check that was sent over to XXXX XXXX in order for me to drive out of there with the car. He then refused and said that he can't do that. I then said I should be able to see the copy of check that you issued to XXXX XXXX because I am asking for debt validation under the Fdcpa which is federal law. I then asked him to send the debt validation within 14 working days so that we could sort this out. he then said OK. I still have not received the copy of the check given to XXXX XXXX from Exeter Finance. I have no proof that this debt is valid and need to see the copy of the check before we can move forward. I also want to bring up the fact that I heard from another Exeter FInance LLC representative that all down payments have nothing to do with the finance company. So the {$3000.00} down payment I paid for the vehicle in question did not go to the finance company : Exeter Finance. If that is the case, why was it on the FEDERAL TRUTH IN LENDING TABULAR at the top of the retail instalment contract? It is against the law to lie on the FEDERAL TRUTH IN LENDING TABULAR located at the top of the contract. Also, why does the retail installment contract say EXETER FINANCE CORP when that place does not exist. Another error in the contract.
