Complaint narrative:
To Whom it May Concern, I am writing in regard to my original complaint, XX/XX/XXXX. In my original complaint, I communicated that I was told my transfer did not occur. I asked for the recording to be reviewed, because I was told time and again the transfer showed it did not happen, and that all of the fees should be returned to me. I waited for this to be corrected. I was assured by the management team on the phone that they were working to achieve this. So I waited. As interest accrued on my account, I was concerned ; which I communicated on every call. Now, because I was told this was going to be corrected, {$3800.00} worth of fees, and interest were assigned to my account I asked that the calls be pulled, and listened to, in an effort to have the facts confirmed, as this was a conversation in each call. In the letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from the office of the president, it states my call could not be substantiated. Moreover you will find a letter for a bank transfer we completed on XX/XX/XXXX for a completely separate 0 % transfer, from Barclays. I never received a letter like this for the transfer I am disputing. 

I had to go through the action of closing my account, just so I could capture confirmation that every call is recorded. You will read ( and hear ) in the call I recorded that there are notes stating I was told this was an error. 

Not only is Barclays withholding the interest in the amount of {$3800.00} ; they held a {$34000.00} over payment from my company for 7 weeks. They would not allow me to utilize the credit, nor did they return the finds in a timely manner. I had to call every week for seven weeks to receive my money back. During each call, I was told a different story. This is scribed, and included in the audio I am attaching. 

I have scribed the conversations supporting my claim, along with the recorded conversation. 

In fact, there was a supervisor I named in my original report, XXXX who confirmed on XX/XX/XXXX I would receive my money back. You will hear XXXX on the recorded audio stating every single call is recorded. This would include hers on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I continued using my Barclays business credit card, and as I charged, I would pay the balance I charge in full. The interest accrued is all from the transfer that I was told should not have happened. 

There have been several news stories, where banking facilities have taken advantage of consumers. I would like to have my interest back. I should never have had to pay it. The bank should have, after listening to all of my calls ; simply refunded this. 

I own a small business, and am completely shocked that a large banking facility would work so hard to undermine a consumer by misleading them, so they can capture interest. 

Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX
