Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

Complaint narrative:
I closed 2 credit cards with chase. A payment arrangement was set up to bring all current until I was able to settle and pay in full for both. The auto payments were set up and in processing a payment date was missed somehow. Upon realizing this, I made 2 {$500.00} payments, one to each card, in order to bring all current and to begin the on time auto payments for the payment plans. I received a call stating one was still behind and upon verifying, the rep stated both payments were applied to the same account instead of one to each. A supervisor was contacted in order to correct this. I was told this was 100 % chases fault and the payment would be moved, accts updated, credit reporting corrected and all updated with full apologies. I have received another call stating this was not the case. Upon checking my credit to begin my homebuying process I realized this was not the case, again. I contacted them and again was promised it would be corrected and just received another call harassing me for another large payment to bring acct current. I need help!

Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I paid off my XXXX  card with Comenity Bank, owned by Bread Financial. The balance was paid in full, before the due date. In XXXX, I received a bill for finance charges that accrued before the account was paid, disputed those and they were removed as a " courtesy '' after I emailed corporate and did a lot of complaining and spent a lot of time. The issue at hand is the predatory and deceptive billing that continues. At the moment, I have a charge of {$100.00}, for which I received the electronic statement today. I logged on to the site to set up payment to avoid these accrued charges and searched the payment screen for any sort of disclaimer about the charges, looked for a date by which to avoid them, looked for any indication that paying on time will not keep them from accruing, or being otherwise notified that they will be charged. It does not exist. I then called the customer service number and asked for the representative to point me to that information, and she could not. I then asked for her to confirm that it is not available on the website, which she did. At that point I opened the actual statement, the pdf version, read all of the fine print, which does mention " daily accrual '' but still does not mention that payment in full will not result in additional fees being billed. There is no mention of the date by which you need to pay in full to avoid the fees, which the service rep informed me is 21 days, but could not point me to that information being disclosed anywhere in the billing and especially not on the electronic payment screen or within any of the payment disclaimers. I verbally asked her to confirm that it is not there, which she did. Thousands of consumers are receiving these charges with no notice and the process to have them reversed or removed does not exist. I had to resort to threatening further action to get them removed from my account. I only keep the store card for the rewards and perks, as do countless others, but something needs to be done, and reparations need to be made.
