Complaint narrative:
I opened a new XXXX XXXX by Barclays bank. This company charged me a fee for overnight shipping and did not tell me that it would be {$15.00} fee. I did not request expedited shipping for this card. I was not home and would not request a credit card be delivered without my being within 2 states of my home. I called the credit card company and they sent me to multiple call centers in different countries and did not seem to understand my complaint. I would like the {$15.00} removed from my bill as well as make sure other consumers are not placed into the same position being stuck on hold for almost an hour. Yes, it's just {$15.00} but I'm sure they do this to a lot of consumers who would just pay it. Unfortunately, they agent from Barclays could not provide documentation of me agreeing to this.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
I have two credit cards with Bank of America. I recently had to use both for some major purchases. Today I logged on to set up Auto Pay so that I can pay the debt down. The company has removed the ability to set up a specific amount to be paid each month and only allow the option of Statement Balance or Minimum Due. I find this extremely unfair as I can not currently pay the Statement Balance amount but want to pay more than the Minimum Due. Because I can't schedule such payments any longer and now need to take time to log in each month to pay beyond the Minimum Due. Of course, if I forget or fail to do so for some other reason ( work, health, family, vacation, plenty of reasons this could happen ), Bank of America benefits by earning extra interest on the amount I hold on the credit card and do not pay down each month. This is not reasonable and just a way to juice consumers for more money when they are already making tidy profits on high interest rates. 

I called the company today ( XX/XX/2024 ) and the agent I spoke with confirmed that they did not offer any option for amounts other than Minimum Due or Statement BalancXXXX. I asked if they could set up a recurring payment for me and she said they could not. She took a complaint down and said the company was really good about reading them. I asked if I would hear back from anyone on the issue and she said, " No ''.
