In 2010 I was divorced and per divorce docs accounts were closed and the cities card retained by xhusband removed me as authorized user. It was taken off my report but now he is diseased and they have put it on my credit. They have no record of me because I was only an authorized user but they have refused to let me speak to a supervisor. Customer service transferred me to applications so they didnt have to send me up the chain of command. I was removed as an authorized user in 2010 and now am back on since he is late on payments. The death certificate probably has already been provided by his brother so they must have thought this is a way to try to collect. They are rude and admitted they couldnt find me on an account but insisted I would have to go through the credit agencies. In the meantime they are trashing my credit with their illegal and underhanded action.

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding unauthorized accounts appearing on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to have these accounts removed, they persist, causing significant damage to my financial reputation and well-being. The accounts in question are in clear violation of 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes. It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.
Consumer complaint received 2024-05-15
Product: Prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Unexpected or other fees — 
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (IL)

In XXXX, I purchased a prepaid American Express Gift Card on the American Express Gift Card site. This card processed on XX/XX/XXXX for {$700.00}. Upon getting the card, I noticed that there were XXXX transactions at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX. XXXX was for + {$.00} and the other was for - {$96.00}. I called American Express to discuss the unauthorized charge. American Express listened to the complaint, but said I needed to contact XXXX about the matter. I never heard back from American Express. XXXX said there was nothing they could do either, so I began to think I just lost almost {$100.00} through no fault of my own and wondering how this could have happened after having purchased directly of the American Express website. 
In XXXX of XXXX, I still had not used the balance and decided to try again. XXXX again said there was nothing they could do on their end. So my wife and I called American Express again. They listened to the story and said that they investigated back in XXXX and determined that they would not refund the unauthorized money to the account. We told them that no one ever contacted us to let us know this determination and could we open another complaint to be able to be a part of the process since we paid for a {$700.00} gift card and we were only able to use around {$600.00} of it. They said they would need the previous case number from XXXX. They never gave me a case number. I had no idea they had even opened XXXX up given there was no communication about it. I asked for the case number and they refused to give it to me despite me having all the information for the gift card. They said since I didn't have a case number, there is nothing else for me to do. I asked for a supervisor who initially said the same thing until I told him I'd be escalating this since this seems like fraud that we received a gift card purchased directly from the site that showed up with money already spent on it. He said he'd file another case that would take 45 days. I let him know I was going to file a report on this site and then he ultimately said he would try and push the matter through quicker and that I should call back in a couple days to find out what they decided. 
At this point, I feel like I need more help for this matter than just the customer service representatives. I've searched the internet and this seems to be an issue with many other people.
