Company: SUNRISE CREDIT SERVICES, INC

Complaint narrative:
The company has contacted me multiple times about this debt, and every time I request more information, they say they will mail me a letter. After a few months of this, they finally mailed me a letter but it contains no information about the debt other than the amount. It says the debt is to XXXX but I currently have a XXXX account and do n't show a balance due on the bill. Additionally, the company never said that I could dispute the debt or gave me information on how to verify the debt. In conclusion, this debt is not mine, and the company failed to provide further information or ways to dispute the debt.

Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I have a XXXX XXXX through Continental Finance ( XXXX XXXX ). There was a data breach at the company that caused them to want the card frozen. Unfortunately, and through no fault of my own, their computers never shut the card down and I was able to continue making purchases on it. One day, after checking my account details, I noticed purchases having been reversed. In addition, there was a 60-day delinquency being reported. 
I called Customer Service with regard to the matter, and a manager named " XXXX '' called me back the next day. He explained that, in their error, the card was never shut down as they wanted it to be. A new card had been sent to my old address and returned to them as undeliverable. XXXX assured me that all would be taken care of. They would send me a new card, to my current address, and would also remove any and all derogatory information sent to the credit bureaus. This was in XX/XX/XXXX. 
Last week, around XX/XX/XXXX, my credit monitoring notified me of another 60-day delinquent notice that had been sent to the credit bureaus. In addition, an " over the limit '' indicator was there. This, combined, caused a 70-point decrease in my score. 
I called Customer Service and they reiterated the conversation I had with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. It was confirmed that I had faxed in the necessary information to have the new card sent. However, I was told that they would need to confer with XXXX related to any reversal of late fees and also any removal of negative information to the credit bureaus. 
I was told XXXX would call me " right away '' but no word from him at this point. Continental Finance indicated this was their error and they would be happy to fix it.

Company: HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I charged my HSBC credit card {$20000.00} to pay XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for tuition on behalf of my son. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I paid back the entire {$20000.00} to HSBC to avoid interest charges. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX refunded {$19000.00} ( tuition refund ) to me through my HSBC credit card. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, knowing that my credit card account had money, I used the mobile app to transfer {$19000.00} between accounts, from my credit card account to my savings bank account. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I found out my credit card was charged {$590.00} ( see attached statement ). I called HSBC and the agent told me its for a cash advance fee on {$19000.00}, the tuition refund that I received. So, I paid a cash advance fee on my own money. I was told that any time I transfer from a credit card account on my own, I would be charged a cash advance fee regardless of whether I have money in the account or not ( i.e. refund/overpayment ). I told him I was unaware of this, and it is unfair and makes no sense that I have to pay a cash advance fee on my own money, HSBC didnt pay me any cash at all. The agent was very nice ; he helped me to submit a request to waive the cash advance fee as a one-time courtesy. The request needed manager approval, but he was unable to get the approval because the manager was unavailable. He said I should receive a call around Monday, XXXX for the outcome. By XXXX, I had not received a call, so I contacted HSBC again. This time, the agent retrieved my request, and tried to get manager approval for me, but then she informed that there was a manager meeting in progress and I should receive feedback within 2 days. After two days on XXXX, I called again, another agent tried to get the managers approval for me, but yet again, the manager was unavailable. The agent told me I would receive a call once its done. I am frustrated ; it seems like the XXXX is avoiding me. I made all calls during the regular business hours and as of today, I have not received a single call from HSBC. It is also worth noting that the HSBCs mobile app and website allow people to transfer easily from credit card account to savings/checking bank account, but there is no warning that a cash advance fee will be charged even if you have money in your account ( see attached Transfer between Account ). Other banks ' websites dont have the option to transfer money from credit card account to bank account. For instance, Chases website doesnt allow any transfers from a credit card account to savings or checking account ; you can only transfer from savings/checking account to credit card account. I have tried to resolve this issue with HSBC, but was not successful. I hope Consumer Financial Protection Bureau can help me. Thank you!

More recently, they called telling me, that because I was a " good customer, '' they were awarding me XXXX bonus points. The call came from a person with a heavy accent.

I already have canceled some of my accounts with American Express and in the coming months, will cancel the rest. But I know that means nothing to such a huge company. They need to be made to held to account for such shameful -- and fraudful ( is that a word? ) marketing.
