Consumer Narrative
In early 2022, I opened a Target XXXX XXXX XXXX I was given a credit line that was insufficient for my needs and was told that if I prepaid ahead of charges I would a ) be able to spend more, and b ) would accelerate and increase the likelihood of recieving automatic credit line increases. I made a payment in-store via prepaid debit cards that do not allow credits after activation. My last payment was made in XXXX of 2022 totaling {$22000.00} -- XXXX payments in the amount of {$490.00} per prepaid debit card. The payment was made in-store. Not long after Target called me and informed me that my account was closed for excessive payments, despite the phone rep telling me that it was an approved method for increasing spending power and was viewed as a positive action by the bank. They informed me that they would be refunding the credit balance on the account via a check to the mailing address on file. The prepaid debit cards have been disposed of and they do not accept credits after the initial activation. Months after the incident Target informed me that they decided to return the payments to the original payment method despite them having to go out of the way to do this and process 46 individual refunds. This is inconsistent with standard practice, both for Target and for the industry standard. After the funds have cleared and the hold period has elapsed, a check is typically issued to the address on file. Target refuses to correct their mistake and says that I need to call the prepaid debit issuer. Target went out of their way to cause this issue, will not even provide proof that the funds were sent, and will not issue the check they had promised to issue as of Saturday XX/XX/2022. The reps claim that this is standard practice in instances where they refund a credit balance on the account, however that is not the case.
