Consumer Narrative
I am writing to file a complaint against American Express, for violation of consumer protection laws 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) and ( b ) of the FCRA requires lender to provide notice of such action of sale upon request, however despite these laws, the lender refused to provide such information when requested. Additionally, American Express only stated this action midway through our call, there otherwise was no real or legal cause for such action. My accounts with the Lender were sold without notice and without providing any information regarding the sale. Furthermore at the time of sale, all accounts were in good standing and no primary reason would have been necessary for the relative action. The Lender has refused to provide any information regarding who they sold the account to or why.
