Consumer complaint received 2025-02-01 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was charged a {$29.00} late fee by American Express, even though my payment was made promptly. My account had a due date of XX/XX/XXXX, but the payment did not process because, I believe, of a technical error on American Expresss part that resulted in my auto pay not being properly enabled. 

Immediately on XX/XX/XXXX, upon noticing the fee, I paid off the full balance. I then contacted American Express to request a waiver of the late fee, explaining that the payment issue was due to a technical error and not a failure on my part. During this call, the representative declined my request for a waiver and stated that the matter would be forwarded to a different team for review. 

However, after waiting for XXXX weeks without any follow-up, I called again on XX/XX/XXXX. During this second call, the representative once again declined to review the fee or provide any additional information regarding the issue. 

I am disputing this {$29.00} fee and request that American Express waive the fee.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
