Consumer complaint received 2023-11-15 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I booked flights from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX through my credit card, Chase, on or about XX/XX/2023 for an itinerary of XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. I paid additional funds to choose my seats both ways and selected XXXX. No where obvious did it say that I was not guaranteed these seats. I was shown a seat map, much like I would have if I booked directly with the airline, and paid fees that the airline would charge. I thought my fees being paid through Chase were going to the airline for my seats. When I went to view my travel through XXXX on XX/XX/2023, I was shocked to see I did not have seats assigned to me. I was unable to select any seats, except for upgrade seats, which were only two rows ahead of where I initially selected and paid for through Chase. I was forced to pay {$250.00} to XXXX to get guaranteed seats, as I did not want to be booted off the flight at the worst, or at best, be seated in a seat where I would be unable to sleep on a red eye and ruin the first day of visiting with family. 

I then called Chase who stated that those seat selections are just requests, and they charge for requests. They refused to remedy their bait and switch tactic and after searching the internet, this seems like a common situation, customers pay for seats, think they have them, then show up to their flight and do not. 

Chase is aware of the problem, but have not done anything to remove the feature - or at a minimum, remove the payment requirement. 

It is a shady tactic, and if customers were aware, they would book their seats directly with the airline. XXXX is doing this to get more money in their pocket and then refuse to do anything about. They would not even refund me the amount I spent with them. 

This tactic is deceitful and common practice and they are fully aware that customers are often unaware their payment for seats is doing nothing except lining XXXX 's bank account. Forums are full of similar stories. 

Imagine if they did this with flights and let you book the flight for the full cost through them, but not guarantee your booking will go through.

Company: Flexible Finance, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Flex Finance has been reporting inaccurate information to the credit bureau for months. I've disputed this account numerous times with XXXX and each time the account comes back as verified by the creditor without me receiving any documents proving their claims. I have provided proof that this account is being reported inaccurately and I've included documents showing the discrepancies from the creditor. This account is closed yet the account status changes to something different every time I file a dispute. This is against the FCRA laws to continue to report inaccurate information to the credit bureaus. It's been extremely stressful dealing with this because the company doesn't have a phone number, only form of communication is email and there's long periods between each email every time I've tried to communicate with them.
