Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (LA)

On XX/XX/2023 I purchased a dishwasher with my Best Buy credit card, which is run by Citi. It was set to be installed on XX/XX/2023 by Best Buy which was included in the purchase. The overall purchase price was {$840.00} including the dishwasher, installation, and taxes & fees. The third party installer supplied by Best Buy ( XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) came on XX/XX/2023 and had issues installing it. He took it back with him and was supposed to return the dishwasher to Best Buy. ( I have pictures of the return paperwork ) The dishwasher was never returned and I was stuck with the {$840.00} payment, which I paid in full. I called Best Buy to dispute this and got nowhere, so I decided to do an online dispute with the credit card charge. On XX/XX/2023 I got my denial letter of the dispute. I ended up purchasing the same dishwasher elsewhere and had it installed with no problem, but Im still stuck with paying for a dishwasher from Best Buy that I never got.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (CA)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased four roundtrip airplane tickets to travel from XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX, XXXX. I purchased the tickets through the American Express Travel portal to fly with its preferred partner XXXX XXXX. American Express gets special discounted rates to travel with a preferred partner as part of its international travel program. I paid for the tickets using all the points I had accumulated over the course of 8 years. 
Around the first week of XX/XX/XXXX, I canceled my trip. I was told that I would get flight credit. The Amex Travel portal showed a flight credit. I relied on the American Express agent informing me I had credit, and the credit showed on my portal. 

This week I spent over XXXX hours over 3 days with American Express travel agents trying to use my airline credit to reschedule my tickets. On Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with the first Amex agent who told me I had to start my travel before XXXX XXXX, XXXX, in order to use my credit. On XX/XX/XXXX, the second Amex agent told me I had to complete travel by XXXX XXXX, XXXX, to use the credit. That same day, the third AMEX agent told me I had to go through a special process because Amex and XXXX XXXX had ended their preferred partner relationship and the booking had to be approved by a different desk. I was never informed of any plans for American Express to end their partnership with XXXX XXXX, much less of any consequence to my booking. 
Nonetheless, on that XXXX XXXX, XXXX call, that same agent submitted the request to reschedule and asked me to call the next day to confirm my booking. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I called to confirm and another Amex XXXX said I have no credit and I forfeited everything by canceling the original trip in XX/XX/XXXX. The agent started by acknowledging that what she was telling me was preposterous and offered to file a global complaint with American Express ( XXXX ), which she said would take 6-8 weeks to resolve. However, a 6-8 week timeframe would be past my flight credit expiration date. I request my money or my points back. One customer service representative offered to restore my points, but it would include a charge of {$2800.00}, despite not taking the trip. This is a taking. 

After all my calls with Amex, on XX/XX/XXXX, I subsequently called XXXX XXXX directly and they were able to pull up my original travel itinerary but told me they could not rebook me because Amex kept the money for the ticket. She said XXXX XXXX never received the money and I had to return to Amex to rebook.
