Complaint narrative:
I have been contacted numerous times from mediation, collections for VIP Loans saying I will be sued, they will be delivering summons for court, etc. I have asked for written proof of this debt from XXXX  ( Texas ) which they say they have sent several times but I have never received it. They start hollering at me, talking over me, telling me I just dont want to pay my bills. I know this is past the statue of limitations here in Texas but they call my husbands business leaving a message and when I repeatedly ask them to not call me on that number she starts hollering and saying they can contact me on whatever number they have for me.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I have been a customer of American Express since XXXX having opening my first account ( Blue Cash Everyday Card ) with them on XX/XX/XXXX. Over the years I also opened another account, the Hilton Honors card based on a promotional offer. I don't have any credit card debt and always pay off my card every month and based on that Amex has been sending promotional offers for their luxury card, the Amex Platinum, which comes with an annual fee of {$690.00}. 

I put in an application for the Platinum card on XX/XX/XXXX and was approved with a welcome offer of XXXX membership reward points once I spent {$6000.00} on the card within 6 months. I opened the account primarily to book two international flight tickets for my parents traveling from XXXX to the US and just that purchase came out to be {$4600.00} and in the next 2 months I had reached the {$6000.00} limit. I reached out to Amex customer service on the month of XX/XX/XXXX enquiring about the delay in receiving my welcome offer and to my surprise I was told that in their " system '' the qualified spending amount that I have made is {$1900.00} and that I need to spent {$4000.00}!! 

After sending the screenshot of their system of the purchases I made, the customer representative manually calculated I've made since the account was opened and it shows that I made a total of {$6600.00} on the card. I was asked to wait 6-8 weeks for the transactions to be reflected in my account for the to receive the welcome offer. 

I was also informed by the customer rep that I met the spending requirement on XX/XX/XXXX and that points will be credited on or before XX/XX/XXXX, the 8 weeks mark. On checking the account on XX/XX/XXXX, I found that the points are yet to be reflected in my account. Upon contacting the customer service again, they gave me multiple explanations. The initial support was telling me about a " technical glitch '' within their system that is causing the delay and asked me to wait 5-7 business days for a resolution. Upon contacting them a week later I was informed that the qualified spending amount I have made is {$5600.00} and I still have to make {$300.00} to meet the spending limit. 

This inconsistency in the information itself is very frustrating and as a customer very unfair. As per my statements till date I spent {$10000.00} on the platinum card since opening with {$6300.00} just on travel alone. I have attached the screenshots/statements confirming the same but according to the company I have not yet reached the " limit ''. I have raised two complaints with Amex but with no results. The case numbers are XXXX and XXXX. 

At this point I want CFBP to investigate the issue and get a solution as early as possible.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
XXXX was informed XXXX XXXX that Discover card was reporting the wrong balances on my credit. After months Discover finally admitted that they were reporting the wrong balance, and that they were charging me for money that was paid to them and money that was returned to the count per unauthorized charges with interest intact. 

The {$1400.00} Discover has credited the account is a part of the inaccurate balance that they have been claiming was debt or credit to the credit bureau owed to them for months. 

When I asked Discover to admit this to the credit bureau they came up with excuses and lies telling me that their inaccurate report did not matter and for me to have creditors call them to let them know they made a mistake if I needed a loan. They have been recorded telling me that what is written in the credit bureau does not matter. 

I began not to trust Discover and have recording XXXX of everything they said to me, which confirms the accuracy of all that has been stated.,. 

The damage Discover card did could have been fixed early on if XXXX had properly disputed and researched the credit amounts that Discover stated they issued, when they did not issue nor ask my permission to increase my credit line. Discover card abused my trust. Discover literally took money from my bank and claimed it was credit issued to me by Discover then reported my money as debt to the credit Bureau, which is illegal and was never authorized by me.
