Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

On XX/XX/year>, I contacted XXXX and XXXX to find out why the XXXX card associated with Capital One was suddenly showing as closed and reopened on the same day on my credit report last week. The explanation is that XXXX ceased its partnership with capital one and it shouldve been a seamless transfer and should not show as closed but should register as a conversion. I was told to contact Capital One about this capital one representative was very concerned and escalated the matter and told me to submit a letter to their credit reporting team explaining that the merger is showing as an account closure and account opening when it shouldnt. This has drastically affected my score because it looks like a new account is on my account and a closure is on my account. I need this corrected as soon as possible.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (MN)

I have an American Express blue business plus card. They advertise receiving points on purchases. In their initial advertisement there was no discussion of or link to limitations as I recall. However, upon accessing the website and trying to redeem points. None of the points were redeemable, which is totally misleading. to my recollection, no limitations were discussed. this clearly appears to be deceptive practice to get people to utilize their card, thinking that they are going to earn points that are redeemable but which in fact are not redeemable. The attached page shows absolutely confusing and misleading information. You can not ascertain as to what points you can receive or redeem. One part of the documents is there XXXX points to redeem. however, on the actual website. It shows that t I have some XXXX or so points. this is totally misleading. When I try to print the page which showed the inconsistency, the only information which printed was on the attached document and was not a complete reflection of the data on the website page. This clearly appears to be in attempted to mislead people into thinking that they are earning points by using the card when fact they are not earning those points. please note that I have previously filed a complaint regarding their deceptive advertising for their American Express business plus card.

Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (TX)

I reported a scam, USAA still blamed me for the scam. They made only one attempt to contact me this week, and even after returning the call with the representative twice a couple days afterward, I received no response. They then abruptly closed my account with no explanation. I reported the fraud and they are taking credit and saying the check was returned after I requested it to be stopped. They called me once. Left a voicemail instructing that I call them back, but when I did no one answered and no one called me back. They abruptly closed my account even though a police investigation is pending.

Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (MN)

on or around XX/XX/year>, I was contacted via email by American Express promoting an upgrade to my existing American Express blue card to an American express blue plus card. I applied because they offered interest-free promotionsinto XXXX since this was pitched as an upgrade, I assumed that my auto payment which I was making on the American Express blue card would continue over to the upgraded American Express blue plus card . The first statement on the American Express blue card not contain any information regarding status of the payment process so I assumed that my auto pay would continue since the blue plus card was pitched as an upgrade. In fact, when I went into the American Express blue card account, online, my checking account to which I had had the American Express blue card payments automatically withdrawn from was available to be checked. But I was never informed that I needed to check this box in order to continue my automatic payments. I discovered all this on my XXXX statement, which had a penalty charge and an interest charge. I have no record of any communications regarding my American Express blue plus card. I note that I regularly get email notifications regarding my American Express blue card, but not the American Express blue plus card. I find this to be false advertising, and misleading. In violation of the various laws, including the Federal Trade Commission rules. Am requesting or have requested that the penalties and interest be reversed and that my promotional interest free. Be reinstated. They have refused saying they did not have the ability to make those changes, which I know is false. Any company can make any change they want to as long as it does not violate the law, and certainly reversing the charges and interest in reinstating the promotional. Certainly would not violate any law. 
to add insult to injury, I tried to turn on auto payment and could not. As it stated that it was unavailable. in addition, I looked up rewards and the webpages totally confusing stating that I had earned XXXX points in XXXX at the top of the page, but lower on at said that I had earned in excess of XXXX points. This just another example of the misleading information that American Express is providing to cardholders and potential cardholders which I believe bolsters my complaint regarding their misleading information, or at least incomplete information.

I cancelled my lost credit card, when the new card arrived I had a charge of {$1700.00}. I disputed the charge and was told because I had did transactions with the merchant before that I would be held accountable for the bill.
