Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (NY)

On XX/XX/2023, I filed a complaint with amex, I think they cheated me. When I applied for the Amex Hilton Aspire credit card before, I clearly remembered that I applied for the card because they claimed that they would give away XXXX XXXX points when they spent {$4000.00} with the credit card in the first three months. I applied through a friend 's referral link, but my application was not accepted because they said I didn't have an SSN so I had to call to apply. I then successfully applied over the phone, and they didn't mention that I was ineligible for the Welcome Offer ( this is in conflict with Amex saying : they reminded me that I was ineligible, because I believe their calls were recorded ). I filed a complaint with Amex, but they don't think they have a problem. I actually don't care about the Hilton points that this credit card welcome bonus gives, I just think that not everyone is willing to spend time fighting for the rights they deserve with big companies because of this trivial matter. As a result, a large company like Amex has a lot of loopholes to exploit when implementing the bonus mentioned in the promotional advertisement. Amex can make an excuse, but in many cases, just like when I applied for this credit card, Amex failed to fulfill its duty of disclosure.

I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on this account though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed XXXX  system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Equifax, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the XXXX  system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.
