Consumer Narrative
I applied online for a secured credit card with Navy Federal Credit Union on XXXX. On XXXX, during a telephone call, a Navy Federal Representative told me that I was approved for the credit card between/ around XXXXXXXX XXXX to XXXXXXXX XXXX pacific standard time. Later during the XXXX of XXXX, I discovered an email in my inbox from Navy Federal that stated I was not approved for the credit card ; upon discovering this, I called Navy Federal to address this issue and spoke with a manager, the call was nearly 30 minutes and was not resolved ; the manager did not take the time to throughly listen to the phone call, she indicated that there were other customers that she needed to assist ; I expressed my level of dissatisfaction to her ; still no resolution. I called Navy Federal again this XXXX XXXX and was pretty much told the same thing - there are other customers that they need to assist - again, I expressed my dissatisfaction because Navy Federal failed to look into this. I don't appreciate them moving this to the bottom of the list - my already weak credit score is now going to be negatively impacted because of this adverse action/negative inquiry. I disappointed that Navy Federal told me that I was approved over the telephone, then sent an email stating otherwise. They don't seem to care enough about this issue and that is why I am reporting this matter to the CFPB.
