Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Comenity bank has been out of service for 5-6 days. Cards are declining, payments cant be made, nobody is answering the customer service lines. The only responses Ive seen is on twitter from some small @ askcomenity account that is just giving robot responses. Saying this is planned maintenance. Ive never had a bank or cc company do plannedmaintenance with no announcement of it before hand and for a week straight and no end in sight. Usually happens in a few hours over night. And to shut down customer service lines during this is just insane. Somebody needs held accountable.

Complaint narrative:
Company Awa collections showed up in regard to alleged debt from an auto insurance policy I had closed with XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I have spoken with both XXXX  and AWA in regard to the mixup as well as misrepresented of closed account as a collection. When I spoke with a representative for AWA they informed me that they were not going to write off the account unless paid regardless of my documentation of closed account and was told they were only going to accept payment no other information would close the fraudulent collection account. When I spoke with representatives at XXXX they informed me that they do not have access only AWA did and that I would have to settle any issues with them being the account was closed with XXXX. I am getting the run around for an account I closed due to lies, deceit and a misrepresentation of the terms of the insurance account. Me, having closed this account with the organization the alleged debt originated from I see no reason there would be any collection. Clearly this was an oversight and mistake on the end of XXXX and now I am the victim in a scam and fraudulent attempt to steal and cheat the consumer
