Consumer Narrative
Below is the letter my attorney mailed to Barclays Bank of Delaware. I have received no response or consideration of my letter/complaint/request. Mr. XXXX XXXX XXXX has requested that this office contact you concerning his referenced account. We understand that Mr. XXXX has not used that card at all since at least XXXX, XXXX. However, on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX he discovered through his credit monitoring service that he had been charged a membership fee of which he was unaware and that his payment was delinquent. Mr. XXXX reports that he never received a statement containing that charge and only became aware of it when it appeared on his monitoring service as a late payment. At that time, he immediately called and made that payment in full by telephone on that same date. As Mr. XXXX had not used this card for almost two years, he was not expecting to make any payments. However, he has never been late with any payments in the past and is a loyal customer. In addition, this issue has had a severe adverse effect on his credit score. The foregoing premises considered. Mr. XXXX requests that you rescind this late payment charge and delete the late payment entry from his credit report with any credit reporting agency to which you report. Please confirm to Mr. XXXX directly in writing at the cc address below within ten ( 10 ) business days of the date hereof that you have done so. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, and your courtesy in this regard.
