Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Billing problem
Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I had a car loan with BMO. In XX/XX/2023 my car was in an accident and totaled and my insurance company ( XXXX ) sent payment to BMO to pay off the remainder of the vehicle loan. BMO closed my account but continued to deduct autopayments for 3 months following the payoff. I was able to reverse the XXXX payment with my bank. For 3 months I have contacted BMO multiple times to get a refund check. They claim that they mailed a check but that it was sent to the wrong address. They now want me to pay for notary to complete and indemnity form and pay to mail this form to them before they will submit my refund. I have faithfully paid my loan on time the past XXXX years, the loan was paid off and they BMO continued to draft money even after my account with them was closed ( by them ). I do not think it's right that I should spend the time and money for their mistake. I just want a refund check sent to me.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My American Express Simply Cash card does not allow automatic payments nor does it provide normal statements online. 

This leads to claims that one has not paid the balance off but you can not determine what the statement balance is. For example, I had {$0.00} payments or credits XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX ; XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX shows {$270.00} payment and a charge of {$270.00} ; and XXXX to XXXX shows me paying {$1100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and a charge of {$270.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I paid that high amount because Amex claimed I had late payments and fees and I was paying the balance up to date so as to avoid fees in the future. Today I was told I owed {$400.00}. Customer service is telling me that I was charged {$70.00} XX/XX/XXXX but it is not on the billing statement I can access. Customer service is also telling me the statement is for {$360.00}. It's totally misleading and impossible to verify! 

I am cancelling my card as soon as this is resolved, but this card is purposefully obfuscating billing and charges to induce late fees.
