Consumer Narrative
In XXXX of XXXX I opened a store credit card with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Card. On XX/XX/XXXX, I set up a payment in the amount of {$150.00} to be made to the credit card through my bank 's bill pay system - XXXX XXXX Bank. When I received my next billing statement, it indicated that no payment had been received and they charged me a late fee. I confirmed with my bank that the payment was sent out and had my account number attached to it. I then sent messages through the Credit Card messaging portal but they just kept requesting a payment, they did however waive the late fee. I did make a payment through the portal at that time as I did not want a late payment being reflected on my account. XXXX finally sent me a letter through XXXX Bank on XX/XX/XXXX requesting that I telephone them to resolve my inquiry. I did telephone them on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, I spent XXXX minutes on the phone with a representative She took down all of my information and indicated she saw the notes in the computer from my prior messages and that they would get this resolved for me. On XX/XX/XXXX, after more than a month went by I began messaging them again and I would get generic responses of which I would respond pleading with someone to please read my messages and respond appropriately. They then requested that I call them and file a claim, I stated that i already did that. So again, on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I telephoned them and spent XXXX minutes on the phone. The representative told me something to the effect of - Don't worry this time you filed a claim. I told her yes and I have already done this once before! She was apologetic. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter assuring me they are looking into the matter. Still, I hear nothing so on XX/XX/XXXX I message them requesting an update. I am told I have already filed a claim and they are looking into it. Months later on XX/XX/XXXX i receive another letter from them requesting a lengthy list of information of which I've already provided!! I am done trying to chase this money with them and am hoping for a resolution.
