Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Are you aware of Chase 's Pay Over Time Fee and the language that they use to describe it, and the fact that they do not provide any numeric examples of the " fee. '' I can't believe this explanation is not deemed deceptive. Fees " Monthly fee of up to 1.72 % of the amount of each eligible purchase transaction or amount you select to pay over time with no interest, just a fixed monthly fee. '' Yes I am aware of the Buy Now Pay Later schemes and I am surprised that they don't run a foul of regulations, but then I learned that they do not run a foul because of a problem with the regulation, namely that there is some short-time periods to which truth in lending rules do not apply. 

And you let them say, " Chase Pay Over Time plan balances that have a Chase Pay Over Time Fee will not be subject to interest after plan activation. If this XXXX  craziness, I don't know what is. 

Yes, I understand that Chase is trying to partition past charges from new charges and possibly eliminating interest on the new charges when there are still unpaid prior balances, but this just seems like a practice that is going to lead to some real abuse of admittedly financial stupid consumers. 

Are you going to allow insurers and others that have different premiums for annual versus monthly payments, avoid disclosures of the implicit interest rates in the monthly payment approaches? The insurers might already avoid disclosing such, but I'm pretty sure that Professor XXXX and others have criticized the insurance industry 's inadequate disclosure practices. 

Chase may not have needed your prior approval to send out their marketing literature, but I sure hope I'm not the first person to complain about this because the date of this old mail that I just opened, I'm pretty sure that Chase has been sending out such notices about Pay Over Time Fee for many months.

Complaint narrative:
I am stressed and displeased that I see so many fraudulent accounts on my credit report. This is really damaging my credit worthiness. I am trying to buy a home for me and my family and this is not fair. I have tried several times to get these accounts removed. Let alone, my information was in an XXXX & Equifax breach some months ago so I thought you all would protect my consumer report. I do not feel that my information is being protected. This is a defamation to my character, and this is a federal law violation. According to, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) my consumer report fairness and privacy has been violated. I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also, it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher people 's information to 3rd party companies, so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can get sued for these damages. This is negatively affecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately.

Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
A purchase for over {$900.00} was made on a Best Buy store on XXXX XXXX, FL according to my account statement. According to the Best Buy representative, this purchase was made in person with a physical card. 
I was in XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX to the XXXX. The purchase was made on XX/XX/XXXX without my authorization. 

I found out about this Monday XX/XX/XXXX, when I got a phone call and an email regarding a late payment. Since I do not use this card, I was surprised and I checked the account. As my surprise I had a balance due for over {$900.00} dollars plus late fee and interest. I immediately contacted Best Buy 's number behind the card and did a police report today. What has me preoccupied is that my mailing address, where I was getting my mail from Best Buy was in a UPS store, where I have a mail box. All my addresses were changed to my apartment building but since I don't use Best Buy, I forgot to change that one. I have my suspicions on the store because if someone ordered a new card, then they took it from there. 

I have not received any info back and I am very worried about my credit score, I take really good care of it and this crime is freaking me out. 
Attached you will find photos of the bank statement ( it got wet I apologize ), prove of my passport and the stamps that show when did I fly to XXXX and came back to the US, and prove of the FAX that was sent to Best Buy of my passport evidence. Also, the claim number and the police report case number.

I acknowledge that there was a late payment on the mentioned account, and I take full responsibility for the delay. However, I want to bring to your attention that the late payment has since been settled. I discovered the oversight promptly and made the payment as soon as I became aware of the delinquency. 
I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting, and I am kindly requesting your consideration to update the late payment status on my credit report. I am not disputing the fact that the payment was initially late, but I am requesting that the credit report reflect the resolution of the issue that is, the payment has been made and the account is now current.
