Consumer complaint received 2020-07-07 00:00:00
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — Store credit card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF OMAHA
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
First Bankcard sent a letter dated XX/XX/2020 stating that the credit limit on the card was changed to {$500.00}. The card had been issued with a {$800.00} limit. 

First Bankcard 's Customer Service was contacted by telephone regarding this matter on XX/XX/2020, requesting restoration of the limit to {$800.00}. The Customer Service agent stated the limit could not be changed for at least a 90 day period, and stated that it was a program-wide decision, not based on individual usage or actions. 

I reject these account changes and request that the limit be restored to the original {$800.00} amount. 

For wider context, there are news reports that companies engaging in this practice are likely motivated by the COVID-19 pandemic, although the Customer Service Representative did not mention this during the call. Constricting credit access to consumers during a time of crisis constitutes unethical behavior in the marketplace.

Dear XXXX XXXX : I am contacting you regarding a 30-day derogatory mark from XX/XX/2020 that appears on my three credit bureaus. 
I dispute these 30 day lates and demand a full removal of the 30-day late marks based on the enacted Section 4021 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ( the CARES Act ) which bars ( and makes illegal ) such a derogatory mark, subject to its terms. The purpose of this letter is to ask that the derogatory mark immediately be reported as current to the three major credit reporting agencies, XXXX, XXXX, and Trans Union so that this matter be resolved amicably and without any court intervention. I thank you for your anticipated cooperation. 
Prior to the missed payments I attempted to contact XXXX XXXX   regarding my charge card payments, albeit unsuccessfully due to hold times several hours long. My income has been temporarily negatively impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak, I have experienced severe financial hardship as a result of the economic standstill that our country is going through.

..if the credit obligation or account was delinquent before the accommodation ..if the consumer brings the credit obligation or account current during the period described in ( aa ), report the credit obligation or account as current. 
The term covered period means the period beginning on XX/XX/2020 and ending.. 120 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the novel coronavirus disease ( COVID-19 )  outbreak
