Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/2021, someone managed to 'hack ' my credit card with Barclays XXXX account ending in XXXX. At the time, Barclay 's customer service reached out to me to report fraudulent activity at XXXX XXXX, around {$200.00}. The service representative then asked me to go over recent charges with me to see if any other fraudulent activity could be identified. We noted two charges, one at XXXX XXXX for {$250.00} and one at XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$210.00}. I was told that these charges would be removed, as they had occurred around the same time as the XXXX XXXX charge. On XX/XX/2021, Barclay card sent me a letter to let me know that they believed the activity for XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$210.00} was valid, and they had chosen to place this charge back on my account. Although I did not receive a letter for it, they also chose to add the charge from XXXX XXXX of {$250.00} back to my account. Neither of these charges were valid. I cancelled the card due to this, as I felt that I could no longer trust the company ( and my credit line was {$14000.00} ). During this cancellation call, customer service told me that a manager would call me back to discuss options. I have never received a call. I have tried to file a dispute online for these charges, but since my credit card is cancelled, and I no longer know the number for the one that was stolen ( as I was advised to shred it on XX/XX/2021, and another one was shipped, ) I can not file a dispute via the website. I also can not attach a cardholder agreement, as the website will not provide it.
