Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/scrub> 2025, my American Express credit cardwhich had been used responsibly and without any violationswas suddenly and unreasonably closed by the company without warning or explanation. Additionally, all of the reward points I had accumulated were revoked. I did not receive any prior notification or communication explaining the reason for this account closure.

I contacted American Express customer service multiple times seeking clarification and a resolution, but no specific reason was provided. The representatives were unable to give any insight into what led to the account termination or point forfeiture. I believe this treatment is unfair and lacks transparency.

I am requesting that my account be reinstated or that I be given a formal, written explanation. I am also requesting the restoration of my reward points or financial compensation equal to their value.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPD, On XX/XX/year> my phone was hacked. The hack involved accessing my PayPal account, which was linked to my debit card and deducting many increments of a {$100.00}, totaling an amount of {$2000.00}. I changed my cell phone, my email, all credit card accounts and all bank accounts. After showing proof of all that is previously mentioned, I filed a complaint with PayPal as well as my bank, XXXX. My bank was credited {$2000.00} from PayPal and XXXX gave me the money back by depositing it back into my XXXX  account. 

Last month, PayPal showed a negative balance in my account for {$1100.00}, after they already provided the refund to XXXX several months earlier. After having to deal with them for a month and getting nowhere, I paid them {$1100.00} on XX/XX/year> to resolve the negative balance and to avoid a negative impact my credit score. Now today, XX/XX/year>, they are showing another negative balance on my PayPal account of {$600.00} and they are saying I now owe them this amount. When I called PayPal to inquire why, they said for the transactions that were done back in XX/XX/year>. 

When I called to dispute this new claim and explained to them that they refunded my bank, XXXX, {$2000.00}, they refuse to show documentation to support their case. They tried to blame it on my bank, but XXXX resolved the dispute and was credited the {$2000.00} from PayPal. Why are they now coming back and asking me for additional funds? I should receive my {$11000.00} back and not owe PayPal another {$600.00}. 
Please help, XXXX XXXX
