Good Day, I have a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX According to the credit bureaus, there has been a credit score decrease of XXXX points in XXXX due to me exceeding the credit limit of {$50.00}. After reviewing my credit reports, I realized that the {$50.00} balance from XXXX is reporting instead of the balance for XXXX. According to XXXX 's terms, I'm required to add money to the account to set the spending for the month. The spent amount is locked as the secured funds in the XXXX account, which then can be used to repay the statement balance automatically with XXXX at the end of the month. I have not been provided with a statement for XXXX, but I do have screenshots of the transactions from the account. I deposited almost {$1000.00} into the account in XXXX. I've had the account for more than 6 months and I have only been provided 3 statements excluding the statement for XXXX. Also, XXXX does not have live agents for emergencies. Customers are required to chat with a live agent. This is an inconvenience when credit card companies have to contact a representative to verify transactions.
