Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to complain about the practices of Comenity Bank, owned by Bread Financial, which issues consumer credit cards for XXXX, Talbots, and other retailers. 

1 ) I opened a Talbots store credit card sometime in XXXX per Comenity 's records, when I was residing at Address # XXXX. Despite multiple requests in writing and via telephone, I never received the card. I have spoken to numerous customer service representatives over the years who apologize and commit to sending me a card, but I have still never received a card. 
2 ) In XX/XX/XXXX, I moved to Address # XXXX. 
3 ) At some point in the last few months, someone apparently made a purchase at a Talbots either using the card I have never received, or by claiming they were me. Talbots apparently allows people to make credit purchases without presenting the card, which is an incredibly poor security practice. I suspect they do this because Comenity regularly doesn't mail cards to people. 
4 ) Comenity has been harassing me for months over this purchase, despite never sending me a Talbots credit card after approval and claiming it has been sent.

Issue: Fees or interest — Unexpected increase in interest rate
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have a XXXX credit card account. I had purchased a computer with an interest fee of 0 % for the first year. I carefully calculated my payments and the computer was to be paid off prior to the interest fees. I had autopay set up for $ XXXX payments. At the end of XXXX i received an email stating they were selling my account, and access would be restricted. I called XXXX at that time, to make sure my last payemnt ( {$97.00} ) would not be charged late, or if the autopay would still work, etc. I was told no late fees are charged, and as soon as I got the letter stating the account was changed, to login, and make sure all was in order. I received the letter around XX/XX/XXXX. It stated that I had incurred interest of {$280.00} because I did not pay my promotional purchase off in time. I reached out to the creditor, and was told that there is nothing they can do, as I did not pay my promotion off in time. My promotional balace would have been paid off in time had they NOT SOLD my creidt account, and restricted my access to the account while the transfer was occuring. Even if you can not assit, I would like others to be warned of the predatory manuever of creditors, as this is totally unfair. Thank you.
