Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to spend money in a store or online
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
Yesterday, Sunday, XX/XX/2021, I tried to use my card at a retailer who accepts American Express, for a total charge of {$11.00}, and my card was declined twice. I knew I had enough to cover that purchase. When I called the customer care number, the automated system told me my balance was {$39.00}. When I finally got through to an agent, after waiting on hold and having my call dropped, I was told there is nothing wrong with my account, and she didnt see any declined transactions. She stated the retailer didnt run my card correctly but didnt explain how to fix it. So I went to a XXXX ATM and withdrew {$20.00} so I could complete my purchase. Later that evening I added one of my debit cards so I could combine my money. My account was verified, as I was able to identify the two temporary charge amounts of {$1.00} and {$1.00}, used to confirm my ownership of this account. 
This morning, Monday, XX/XX/2021, I attempted to transfer {$18.00} from my debit card to this account. I got a dialog box Oops, this is embarrassing, we seem to be having technical difficulties, please try again later. I tried to login to try the transaction again, and it kept saying my password and login do not match. This was concerning because I KNOW I didnt change my password. When I tried to use the forgot password link, and entered my card information, I got the same error as described above. After waiting a few minutes, again, I tried a couple more times to reset my password, continuing to receive the same error. I called the customer care line, entered my card information, and was told my account access was permanently suspended and an email would be sent to the email address on file. The email stated I had violated the terms of use per section 22D, and I could write to the address in the email for more information. This is not acceptable so of course I tried to contact customer care again, 5 times. Each time my call was dropped with no further help or explanation. I could not locate this section of the terms of use online, and after a quick search on consumer complaints, I found a number of people experienced this same issue. I have had nothing but issues with this company, but this has taken it too far.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021 I notified the credit bureaus that there are some account reporting on my credit report that were the result of someone using my information to open up accounts. The credit bureau 's have removed some fraudulent accounts from my credit report however when I pulled a new credit report and I noticed that the accounts re-appeared. I referred back to the FTC " Guide to assisting identity theft victims '' and it states that I should have received notice 5 days before they added the items back on my credit so it's been re-inserted illegally. I believe the person who has taken my personal information is someone who lived at a previous residence and I am a non confrontational person and I don't want to see anyone in trouble but this account is preventing my fiance and I from purchasing a home so I have taken the time to go to XXXX and spoke to officer XXXX who advised me to file an FTC Identity Theft Affidavit and obtain as much information as possible from the furnisher so my police report is not vague and so they can complete an investigation which may unfortunately lead to an arrest.
