Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX I obtained a credit card from TD Bank. I had a previous credit card from another bank and I attempted to obtain a balance transfer. After explaining the request to TD Bank, they then sent the physical check with the balance to the wrong location, specifically the branch where I had opened the original card but not the company/address which actually receives payments. I have been trying to contact TD Credit Card Services for several days and no one actually picks up. There have been occasions where I have left my phone connected for a half hour to an hour and the usual " representatives are assisting other customers '' keeps replaying. I actually went to a TD Bank location in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX where a customer representative actually sent an e-mail and tried to call on my behalf and was unsuccessful. I have attempted to contact both TD Bank and their credit card unit on XXXX and have been unsuccessful in getting a response. If this is not resolved soon, it will affect my credit rating and ability to pay.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
I opened a CFPB complaint previously, it was closed today. The response letter I received for my complaint was for a different customer, with a different issue. ( See attached ). 

My issue remains unresolved. XXXX from the XXXX office called me last XXXX to inform me XXXX ) that she would not be calling to update me any longer XXXX ) they know a credit needs to be issued, but informs me it will be issued on their remediation timeline. 
XXXX ) they forced me to make a minimum payment beyond what my accurate balance is in order to prevent the account from going delinquent. They refused to adjust the balance to the correct valance, or the minimum payment. 
XXXX ) that i would need to continue to pay any over-inflated minimum payment until they decide to resolve the matter XXXX ) they were closing the complaint because of their needed deadline, even though the matter is not resovled in any way, shape or form ... and now they have the nerve to send me the response of another customer, with his personal information of name, address, checking account details, etc. 

Barclays clearly has no controls in place what-so-ever. They refuse to comply with the law or handle billing disputes for duplicate balance transfers.
