On XX/XX/2022 I received a phone call from XXXX and the caller identified themselves as calling from XXXX XXXX and immediately tried to " confirm '' my identity by asking to state my name and address. I asked what is the nature of the call and the agent refused to tell me unless i revealed personal identifying information. I hung up and called that number back. 
A person self identified as 'customer service ' ( after I inquired 3 times ) told me his name is XXXX XXXX He said he was not allowed to provide his location. The conversation went back and forth on this issue and he often spoke over me in a threatening manner. I asked again and he said XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' He refused to say what a " financial services company '' is. I said I have no relationship with XXXX XXXX at this time. He said I might have had one in the past. I said all obligations have been finished. He continued to treat me with disrespect. He would not give me the address of XXXX XXXX unless i " verified '' my identity and I refused. He would not reveal what kind of financial services company this is. 
I requested a supervisor. After five minutes on hold a XXXX XXXX took over. 
He refused to state the nature of the call and refused to say what the financial services company is. He said he could not tell me because this is a personal business financial matter. He harassed me and treated me with disrespect. He said repeatedly after I asked what a financial services company is that he could not tell me unless I verified my address and other personal identifying information. The initial call was at XXXX XXXX 
The public information on XXXX clearly shows it's a debt collector. I have a XXXX and other medical condition which these callers exacerbated. My obligations with XXXX were settled months ago.

Complaint narrative:
After receiving a letter from the Company outlining the credit card to end as of the end of XXXX, XXXX and to be able to redeem the earned rewards till the end of XXXX, XXXX, I contacted customer service in regards to my rewards balance of XXXX even before the end of XXXX. I was told that I could transfer my rewards to my statement balance to redeem and have not been able to do that so far. I have contacted them every month up to date in regards to my rewards either by email, phone & mailed letter to redeem. I was told that they couldn't do the redemption due to updates and they apologize for that but are working on it. As of now, they have closed my account, I called them on XX/XX/XXXX again in regards to redeeming the points because they in fact show up on my statement, but was told again that my account is closed but that I could in fact have XXXX points per XXXX. ( customer service ). 
If they can give me XXXX points why don't they give me all of the points that I have earned through the years. 
I have been an excellent customer, have paid them a lot of money over the years and this is how I get treated. I've earned those rewards and I don't understand why they won't let me have them. I have also filed a complaint with the XXXX which they have sent the complaint to them but the card company has not reached out to me so that's when I called them again as stated above.
