Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX After analyzing each statement in XXXX  XXXX thru XX/XX/year>, here is what I found : After analyzing the billing statements provided, here are some identified discrepancies and details that may require further review : Interest Charges and Promotional Plan Balances : Interest charges seem to vary significantly from statement to statement, despite no new purchases. This includes high interest amounts applied to promotional plan balances after expiration. Example : XX/XX/year> statement shows a total interest charge of {$45.00}. 
XX/XX/year> statement shows zero interest, then XXXX shows {$51.00}. 
Expired promotional balances ( e.g., {$260.00} due by XX/XX/year> ) may now be accruing interest at a higher rate. Consistently review if these balances are being managed correctly to avoid unnecessary interest. 
Fees and Payment Processing : There are multiple instances of late fees, such as the {$29.00} fee in XX/XX/year>, despite consistent minimum payments. Ensure payments are processed by the statements cutoff time to avoid repeated late fees. 
Payment amounts and dates sometimes appear inconsistent, like a {$66.00} payment in XX/XX/year> followed by a {$60.00} payment in XXXX. This might imply payment adjustments based on plan requirements or errors in the recorded dates. 
Adjustments in Minimum Payment Due : The minimum payment fluctuates across statements, such as {$66.00} in XXXX, {$65.00} in XXXX, {$94.00} in XXXX, and then {$100.00} in XXXX, which seems unusually varied. Check for any changes in the minimum payment structure or additional charges impacting these amounts. 
Promotional Plan Expiration and Balance Updates : The statements mention specific balances under promotional plans that require full payment by set deadlines to avoid higher interest. There is an increase in the amounts listed under expired promotional plans, e.g., {$53.00} in XX/XX/year>. Confirm that promotional balances are correctly rolled over or paid off to avoid future interest charges. 
Credit Limit and Available Credit Changes : Available credit fluctuates with each statement, sometimes without corresponding purchase activity ( e.g., available credit of {$1500.00} in XXXX, then {$580.00} in XXXX ). Ensure there are no system or reporting errors affecting the credit limit or available balance. 

Also on XX/XX/year> they charged me the wrong finance charges and in the attached document this is clearly evident. Since they have taken over as the lender for XXXX, it's been a nightmare.

Santander never updates my credit report which makes me debt to income ratio higher on my credit report. My credit report has not been updated since I last did a dispute with my credit bureau of XXXX back in XXXX. It is XXXX and my credit report still has not been updated. Also, they charge me late fees before my ten day grace period. I still believe I should have not had no late fees or charges at all this year. 
Every time I make a payment within my grace period it does not show on the bill until days later. You all did this to my XXXX bill as if I was late and I have a email saying it was paid within the grace period but the bill shows that XXXX is the last payment. 
You all are charging people for late fees and writing incorrect bills when payment is made timely.
