Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
I spoke with the company on 6 occasions regarding this ongoing issue. There are 4 payments that I made to credit account, but they were never applied, applied and reversed. 

After speaking with representatives, they requested proof from my bank that the payments were made. I provided proof in the form of the electronic transfer records provided by my bank. 

I spoke with multiple managers, and have multiple cases open, and each one was closed without explanation. 

I emailed corporate executives and received no response. 

These missing payments have caused my account to go beyond the promotional 0 % APR period for my purchase and its accruing significant interest. I continue to make payments on the account to avoid fees and negative credit reporting.
