Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (OH)

I made a balance transfer in the amount of {$14000.00} to a home equity line of credit i have in XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was offered a XXXX percent interest rate. I made the transfer over the phone with my Frontier Airlines XXXX Starting in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I started to receive interest charges for the transfer. I paid the fee of {$700.00} but each month I receive interest charges. I call the company each month to dispute the charges. The call center will reverse the charge, but then again, the next month, I receive an interest charge on the balance transfer and also on any purchases I make. I pay my purchases off every month and continue to pay down the balance transfer amount. Now the company says I agreed to a 20 percent interest amount on the balance transfer. I most definately did not. This transfer transaction was made over the phone. I agreed to a XXXX percent transaction. They say they record these calls. They should go back and listen to this conversation and rectify this situation. I would never transfer {$14000.00} for a 20 percent interest rate promotion.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (CT)

I have a JetBlue MAstercard with Barclays. I have had the card for many years and make payments regularly and use it regularly. I was at my credit limit last week so I made a payment of {$1700.00} against my account which would give me approx. {$1300.00} in credit to use to buy Jet Blue tickets. I made the payment on Sunday from my XXXX account. The payment was registered by Barclays on XXXX  the XXXX XXXX XXXX but they will not release the money to my account until XX/XX/XXXX, saying that somehow I can cancel the payment with my bank. I feel like this is an outrageous practice as they have my money- it is no longer in my XXXX account but they will not allow me to charge anything against my JetBlue card. The only reason this matters is because when I book airfare with Jetblue using that card I get a free checked bag and additional airmiles. I can not wait until the XXXX to book the travel so I had to use another provider 's card and i lose out on the {$30.00} per ticket free bag ( {$60.00} total ) and the miles. I called them and they tole me that they could remove the credit hold so that I could may the purchase but they transferred me to someone else who refused - telling me I could still cancel the payment I also send them an email and they gave me the same response although after I told them I would file a claim with you, they said I could call them back and they will reconsider making the change... too late I already bought the tickets and had to pay for the bags. I don't think its fair for them to hold my money but not apply it to my account enabling me to use it.

Hello, I closed my account with XXXXXXXX  to transfer to another mobile carrier a while ago. Moving forward a few days, I got a hard inquiry on my XXXX XXXX and was surprised to see I had a collection from XXXX on my account. 

I immediately contacted XXXX, who confirmed there was nothing they could do and advised me to contact the law firm of Maury Cobb & Associates LLC.I 've been calling them via relay due to the fact I'm deaf, but they kept hanging up on me, so I don't know what to do and am worried it will impact my credit line as it shows I have collections. 

I never received any notifications, warnings, emails, or letters about the remaining balance, which I believe to be around {$160.00}. I had no idea about all of this. 

Please sit down and remove this debt, as this must be an error.
