I opened an account with XXXX to take payments for vending art and merchandise at local events. It started out great, and i made many sales! But then i went to verify my bank account, and they deactivated my account. I tried their text chat, and they refused to help me stating it could only be done over phone. I called, and they refused to talk to me or tell me what was wrong and they stated I could only contest the deactivation through the email they had sent me. i emailed, and it stated I had waited too long to respond so my reply was denied. I was notified I'd have my money in XXXX months, but I don't understand why they took my money for XXXX whole months, refused to tell me anything, and my account is gone. 

I'm not a scammer or anything, I don't understand this. I just wanted customer service, to fix whatever the issue was, and to get my money and use them for future events. 

I have since made a fully functional account with XXXX XXXX. But I still do not have my money from XXXX.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was persuaded by a cashier from XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2022 during checkout that I was pre-approved for a Rewards Card and went on about the deals I could be getting. I initially said No, because I already assumed she is selling me a credit card, and that I opened enough credit accounts this year and I dont want to hurt my credit score. She then told me that since I was pre-approved, this wouldnt affect my credit score at all. I reiterated that back to her, and she said that this is a Rewards Card and you are pre-approved as I can see here, so dont worry about your credit score. I asked Are you sure this wouldnt affect my credit score? The cashier said Not at all. Then, a day after, all of the credit bureau informed of a credit score change and my credit score is down by XXXX points. I wish to dispute this, because this is plain false advertising, and I would like to see if I can settle this first without an attorney.
