Consumer complaint received 2023-10-25 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I noticed a charge of {$96.00} from the vendor XXXX XXXX XXXX which posted near the end of XXXX on my Advantage Airline credit card managed by Barclays. I have never interacted with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and in fact didn't know the company existed until the fraudulent charge appeared. I called Mastercard number on the back of my card and the gentleman suggested they issue a new card, which happened. 

On the next bill, the charge remained, so I called the company again and followed up with a letter, attached. 

The charge remained, so I called again. This time they said they would review the dispute. The woman also said " the chip was present '' and that " since the other charges that day were not disputed '' that I must have made the charge. In fact, there are no other charges that day listed. I never had any dealings with the vendor. So, to me, this charge was just added to my account without justification or evidence that I made the charge. 

After this call, my account now showed a second XXXX XXXX XXXX  charge for the same amount. I called again and was told the 2nd charge was just an accounting error, and would be removed ( it was ), but the original charge was NOT removed. 

I have not heard anything more from Barclay 's Mastercard and the charge remains. 

In summary, I called multiple times and sent the attached letter via surface mail. I also called after this letter and they again said they would review my case. In the meanwhile, I paid all but the disputed charge. However, the charge remains and I am now being asked to pay a minimum fee and interest has begun to accumulate. I have never received anything in writing. 

I appreciate your help. I have never had a credit card company refuse to remove a fraudulent charge before, so I am somewhat at a loss here. I don't know when the next charge will magically appear, so I have locked my card for the time being and paid all but the disputed charge.

Company: Saturn Systems, Inc
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Despite multiple notifications to XXXX regarding the constant reporting of an incorrect amount owed by SATURN SYSTEMS - XXXX, the issue persists. I have repeatedly informed XXXX that I have never made direct payments to SATURN SYSTEMS. Instead, I make payments to the original creditor, XXXX XXXX, for which I owe only {$300.00}. Any medical debt under {$500.00} should be promptly removed from my credit report. Please refer to the attached recent bill from XXXX, which clearly indicates a balance of {$300.00}. 

Failing to rectify this account after being informed of its inaccuracy would be a violation of my rights under the FCRA. Enclosed, you will find copies of the bill showing a {$300.00} balance owed. 

I'm also attaching proof that XXXX is allowing the reporting of the balance owed to constantly be increased and decreased. It is now increased to showing over {$600.00}.
