Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have two American Express credit cards. Despite making timely payments and paying more than the minimum, they reduced my credit limit on both cards and damaged my credit score. This may be understandable for delinquent accounts but not for those that are paying as agreed. Between the two cards, they requested more than {$12000.00} to prevent this penalty. Please review their practice and have my original credit amount restored to rectify the damage to my credit score.

I have two cards but could only list one on the website. 

Thank you.
