Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year> while travelling in remote areas for helping XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX with finance, I was not able to pay my CHARGE card payment. With all challenges in my face I still managed to call the front desk of local AMERICAN EXPRESS CARD and they said we will accommodate. 
After that they did not accommodate but started levying penalties, doubling down on interest, SUSPENDING my CHARGE CARD for which I paid money, putting a criminal EXTRACTION AGENCY behind me. Its been 30 days since I put a request to cancel. But they do not act on it as then I cease to be their cashew. I have appealed to everyone but they hide behind procedural things and avoid the resolution. 

My other card which is also a charge card with almost 5 times credit limits they blocked that too. 

I am totally frustrated and hence this request.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
