Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (VA)

Upon checking my account I noticed a plethora of unauthorized charges on my account. My card was in my possession the whole time and I let nobody use it. In tears and confused I immediately phone American Express Serve and reported the fraudulent charges. Totaling a little over $ XXXX. To my amazement the representative I spoke to was extremely condescending almost hinting as if I had something to do with these charges. I was furious! I received an email saying {$4800.00} was disputed. Which is a lie! I have proof of my Declaration Of Fraud which I will also attach, I never disputed that much. I only disputed unauthorized charges that I didn't make. The email also stated " Based upon our investigation we have determined that no error occurred and that transaction ( s ) in question was authorized. Therefore, the transaction ( s ) is not eligible for credit to your account. '' I called in another time, the representative that answered said I have to take it up with the merchants in question. How when I've never did business with any of those merchants?! American Express Serve is extremely unprofessional and can care less about their customers. Obviously our money and financial safety mean nothing to them. I am on here to share my nightmare of a story. And hopefully deter others from making the same mistake I made using this Institution. Please go to an Institution that values your account safety and customer relationship. Please stay away from American Express Serve they don't care about their customers.

I have called and sent in letters to all 3 credit bureaus Experian, XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX 2022 by phone, I also sent in dispute letters on XX/XX/XXXX, asking that all incorrect names, addresses, phone numbers, spouse and employers be removed. I have also asked for them to verify accounts that are on my credit report because they aren't my accounts as I have been a victim of identity theft twice. The credit bureaus have failed to do so, and it has hurt me in getting approved for housing and other credit due to inaccurate information being reported. 
They have failed to verify accounts and remove all incorrect information. I have also asked that any correspondence be sent by mail and they have ignored that request.
