Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX 's XXXX # XXXX In XX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a JetBlue credit card through XXXX 's. On XX/XX/XXXX, a letter was sent requesting further information to verify my identity, even though I already hold a credit card through Barclay 's ( a XXXX XXXX ). I hesitantly sent through a copy of my driver 's license, a copy of the front of my Social Security card and a utility bill, as requested. I'd like to note sending this type of information through the mail makes me very uncomfortable and is potentially a threat to my credit, as this information could be intercepted and used. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called to check the status of my application and was told that they received the information I had previously sent, but I did not include a copy of the BACK of my social security card, which is something in all of my years I have NEVER been asked to do. I sent over a fax ( which I was told previously that I could not do ) on the same date with a copy of the back of my Social Security card. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, they sent another letter requesting the same information. When I called to inquire why, they verified that they HAD received all of the information I previously sent, including the back of my Social Security Card. The Drivers license, front of Social Security Card and utility bill had all been verified and approved on XX/XX/XXXX, according to their notes, and on XX/XX/XXXX, the back of my Social Security card was approved. I was advised by Barclay 's rep that all parts were accounted for AND that my application had been approved. 
As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, I still had not received any credit card information NOR a denial letter ( which would be odd since I was already approved ) so I called Barclay 's back and spoke with XXXX who said that it's been 90 days since I applied so I'd have to re-apply again, despite her confirmation that, yes, all docs had been verified and yes, I had been approved. Why should I take another inquiry hit to my credit report for something that was already approved? I did everything that was asked of me, my credit inquiries took a hit and yet Barclay 's wants me to apply AGAIN? I would just cancel my other Barclay 's card and not re-apply if it didn't make sense to have this particular airline card since my daughter goes to school in New Jersey and we now frequently fly XXXX. I would like the card I was originally approved for, as it is not fair or right for me to have to re-apply or for my credit to have another inquiry.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
I recently updated my cell phone number and cell phone carrier. I have been attempting to update this information since May to no avail. I have called the company 4 times. I have confirmed my new number XXXX times. Each time I was told that I would be receiving a verification link to send proof of identity. Started this process XX/XX/XXXX. Had to escalate twice to finally get a link sent to me today XX/XX/XXXX. As of XX/XX/XXXX, I'm still locked out and have no way to settle my debt. I am told that verification will take another XXXX to 5 days. Once again I started this process XX/XX/XXXX. I was offered the option to settle the account over the phone, but I was also informed that I would not receive any information regarding the status of the account until the verification was settled. I would never advise a client to make a payment they can not verify. Without access to my account, I am also unable to stop automatic withdrawals from my bank account. In summation, I have no way to settle my debt, stop withdrawals, update my information, or close my account. 
Legal action is my next move. 
Resolution : Unlock my account so that I can pay my bill and close it. 
I will never use this service again.
