Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
During XXXX, XXXX I received a promotion from Elan Financial Services on XXXX XXXX  XXXX  letterhead offering 12 months with no interest on balance transfers. I responded and requested a balance transfer to my XXXX XXXX XXXX  which was confirmed by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The transfer was for XXXX. The disclosed fee was for XXXX. 

On the next statement dated XX/XX/XXXX the balances were reflected accurately on page XXXX ( interest calculation ) and no interest was charged. 

During the XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX period ( the next statement basis period ), I made a total of {$5300.00} in payments against this account. On the statement dated XX/XX/XXXX, some form of arbitrary and undisclosed application process was followed which resulted in an interest charge on page XXXX of the XX/XX/XXXX statement of {$73.00}. This was because the majority of the payments made during the period were applied to the balance transfer and not the purchases. 

This arbitrary method of application mostly obliterates the dollar value of the interest free balance transfer. This is aggravated by the usurous rate charged by Elan/ XXXX compared to other similar cards on regular purchases not paid during the usual interest free period. Note that my payments during the XX/XX/XXXX billing cycle far exceeded the purchases made during that cycle, as has always been my practice with this card, with the exception of a promotion. 

I received a number of explanations of the application and assurance that I would be sent the disclosure of the application process. What I received was a copy of the Card agreement, which does not address promotional payment applications at all. I believe Elan is taking advantage of the lack of capability for the customer to direct application of payments on their website and failure of the customer to understand the problem.
