Consumer complaint received 2025-09-05 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: FL

Complaint narrative:
I hold a Chase sapphire credit card account. I fell behind on payments due to financial hardship and called Chase to be transparent about my situation. During that time, XXXX different Chase representatives assured me that my rewards points would be reinstated XXXX XXXX  after I brought my account current. 

After making the payment, my points were not restored. I later spoke with a manager who told me I never had those points and then ended the call. I called back immediately and another representative confirmed that I did, in fact, have the points and that they would return after another billing cycle which was misleading because the other representative assured that my points would be available immediately. I have a recording of this confirmation. 

The information I received from Chase has been inconsistent, misleading, and feels manipulative given that I disclosed my financial hardship in good faith. I am requesting that Chase honor the commitments made by its representatives and reinstate my points.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I booked a flight on XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX and was charged XXXX, I changed the flight on XX/XX/XXXX, and was charged XXXX. However the original charge of XXXX was never removed from my credit card. 

I've tried multiple time to get in touch with XXXX XXXX. They simply do not answer their phone, and wait times are hours. I've tried for months to resolve the issue with the credit card provider Bank of America. I've filed a dispute. However, BoA denied the dispute, apparently because XXXX provided the itinerary for the SECOND flight. I should be refunded for the first booking, not the second. 

The larger issue is that both the vendor and credit card companies are not responsive to their customers. The have firewalls of hour-long waits, transfers, dropped calls, etc all to force the customer to give up in frustration for clearly invalid charges. The burden is on the customer, and the vendors and credit card companies do not respond. 

This should be a simple fix. It has turned into hours of frustration to no avail

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am respectfully requesting a review of the late payment currently being reported on my credit file as open or unresolved, as I believe this information to be inaccurate and misleading. This reporting is factually inaccurate and materially misleading. The payment in question has either been fully resolved, or I was never late as alleged. The continued reporting of this item as delinquent constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information furnished. The presence of this inaccurate entry has directly harmed my credit standing, resulting in adverse effects on my credit score and potentially impeding future opportunities related to credit, housing, and employment. Accordingly, I demand a full investigation of this matter, and if the late payment can not be conclusively verified as accurate and timely, it must be immediately corrected or permanently deleted from my credit report.
