Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022 I accidently made a huge over payment on my credit card ; I sent them my mortgage payment of {$2600.00} and sent my mortgage company a payment of {$300.00}. I called them immediately after noticing it, but it couldn't be instantly reversed. I spoke with XXXX XXXX ( my credit card company ) and the rep told me he saw my overpayment, but the only option was to send me a refund back in the form of a check. He said before he could issue it, he needed me to verify the payment. He asked me very specific questions like : the exact payment amount, the bank the payment was written on, the address and phone number of the bank, along with the acct # and routing # of the payment. That was on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I tried to use my card only to find out it had been frozen. I called and was informed it was frozen because of the {$2600.00} payment. They wanted even more information now such as a picture of my ID, a picture of a utility bill, and a copy of the bank statement showing the payment. I provided all of that to them. On XX/XX/XXXX after still not receiving my refund, I called again and had to it all over again. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, I got an alert from Experian saying that XXXX bank reported my account as being over the limit by {$2000.00}. You'll see in the statement I'm providing that they claimed they issued me two different refunds and charged my account for them, but they never issued me any. Both refunds they processed were put on hold by them because they were verifying my identity. I called them and informed them of what happened and the 4 different reps I spoke with all were very rude and treated me like I did something wrong. They still claimed I owed them that money. On XX/XX/XXXX, without them informing me of anything, my account had been " fixed ''. They credited my account for the two refunds they claimed they processed, but didnt fix my credit report and they still havent issued me my money back. This company is actively trying to steal an overpayment.
