Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NH)

I had a Capital One credit card for many years in my personal name. They sent me notification, so they say, to up date personal info. I am not good at using the computer to up date info. So if it was sent, I never responded, not sure. One day while using my card, to my surprise, it was cancelled. The XXXX then told me to make an application for a new card. They also said because I am XXXX  & not in business the card would remain cancelled. I am ok with that. The problem is, I had accumulated XXXX reward miles. Over the years I was always to use the total amount of rewards to reduce my credit card bill. This time I was told I would only get half the accumulated rewards. They send me a check for {$560.00} which is half of what I had accumulated. I asked to have my. rewards put on my new card, they said no. I asked for the total amount to be sent to me, they said no. My position is, they never notified me that my card was to be cancelled nor did they give me an opportunity to redeem my rewards. I felt like they in effect were steeling. I understand their position, but I feel I was treated unfairly & should have been given an opportunity to redeem my rewards. thank you.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: First Technology Federal Credit Union (DC)

I held a credit card balance on at First Tech Federal Credit Union for which monthly payments were low ( around {$200.00} ). In XXXX and XXXX I chose to make large lump sum payments to pay down my debt. On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a payment of {$4000.00}, which the banking app said was posted on XX/XX/XXXX. Two months later, I saw that the bank had submitted a XXXX late notice to credit agencies stating that I had not paid for the month of XXXX. I contacted the bank to correct the issue, and they agreed that I was not 60 days delinquent. However, when I reviewed my updated credit history, it showed that they changed the notice to a 30-day late notice for the month of XXXX. When I contacted First Tech, they told me that they submitted a 30-day late notice for the month of XXXX, even though I submitted a payment of {$4000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. The credit union now refuses to correct this notice, stating that the billing period for the month of XXXX starts on XX/XX/XXXX. However, the bank did not notify me that I was delinquent in my payment, they did not attempt to contact me in XXXX or XXXX, and they never assessed a late charge. This is the first derogatory remark on my credit history and it dropped my credit score by XXXX points. I do not believe my new credit score reflects the reality of the situation, nor my upstanding payment history, and I am asking that CFPB review these practices to help reverse this decision and restore my good credit. At XXXX XXXX XXXX, such a hit would be devastating to my goal of owning property in the near future.
