Complaint narrative:
When I opened the carecredit card several years ago I put {$2000.00} on there and without my knowledge if you put another charge on that card, the payments are split and not applied to the first charge. This was not explained to me clearly they told me that the monies would be paid to the first charge first, although this did not happen, Therefore the first charge did not get paid off and with less than {$300.00} left on the balance, they charged me balloon interest at 30 % And I got an XXXX dollar interest charge on a {$2000.00} charge. It was not clear to me either that these special financing deals included balloon interest, shady XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX! Such unethical practices for people who are trying to pay medical bills and then they go and put {$1100.00} interest on {$2000.00} thats outrageous and egregious and morally wrong. Im furious, broken & XXXX.

State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Recently, my credit score has improved dramatically. I deal with two banks. One bank that is my primary posted my credit score XXXX points lower than the other. I realize that all credit reporting services have different numbers. But this low credit score.

Is rather dramatic compared to the other bank.

And that hurts my overall credibility when concerning financial matters.

For their part, the bank in question wash their hands of the issue. My contention is that if you have three or more credit scores from various services shouldnt there be an amalgam of the three averaged out to reflect your true credit score?
