Consumer Narrative
Hello, I recently applied for an American Express Card and was declined for the following reason " You are participating in a payment relief or deferral program, receiving modified terms, or credit counseling services, on one or more of your accounts or loans. '' When trying to look into this on my XXXX report. The only deferral I see is on my Federal Student Loans which was applied automatically. I was informed under the CARES ACT this should not affect my credit, but appears this is the reason I am not able to get my American Express Card. I have been trying to resolve this issue with both American Express and XXXX and each is placing the issue on each other as an error they need to fix.
