Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (NV)

I have extended my credit in good faith as a consumer to Navy Federal Credit Union.

I have the right to extended and rescind my consumer credit by federal law. I wish to continue to exercise my consumer rights and help further the economy with in the Corporation of the United States of America through fairness and legality. 

I have inquired multiple times about a credit limit increase and have be denied but by federal law the consumer Must not be denied an extension of his/her own open ended credit plan. One non living corporation can not tell the living man in trust over his corporation how to handle his open ended credit. As the credit card issuer, NFCU has been sending false payment charges on this account account, to which I am the original creditor, with a positive balance. It should reflect a negative figured balance in any billing documents. This is a misleading tactic on the overall education to consumer credit usage and their further education, as well as a detriment to economic expansion and development, according to Congress. I demand NFCU produce an original consumer agreement and they haven't done so, I demand that my consumer rights be met and we can carry on with our great commercial relationship. I am the original credit of this account, the natural man, in trust, the consumer doing business in commerce. Please respect the federal codes and promptly respond. I dont want to be a litigious consumer.
