Complaint narrative:
I changed my address on my credit card. They locked my account and prevented me from using my card, seeing balances, making payments ect. I asked them how to get it unlocked and they said I had to submit a form showing my drivers license and that I could get it unlocked. They told me it would take 2-3 hours to receive and then 14 days to review. I submitted the form on Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX waited 5 hours and they told me they hadnt received it and there was no way for them to check when they would get it. Had it escalated to a supervisor and they said the same thing and then told me I just had to wait the 14 days with no confirmation that they even received it. Not only is it ridiculous that my account is locked for a change of address, but the fact that I have to wait 14 days for them to verify who I say I am with no confirmation that they received anything is absolutely insane.
