Consumer Narrative
The company closed the credit card account. I called to find out why the account had been closed and I was told by the agent that it was because, too many credit cards with balances and my income, which have increase since opening this card. All my credit cards with other companies are in great standing. I explained to the agent that it is unlawful for any creditor to discriminate against any applicant, with respect to any aspect of a credit transaction because the applicant has in good faith exercised any right under Title 15 Chapter 41 of the US Code. Unfortunately, the agent held her position that the company would not be able to reopen the account. Knowing the regulations set forth in the Truth in Lending Act, and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, I realized that I am being deprived of my rights. Due to the actions of the company, my faith is torn and I am devastated that the company would act in such a manner, given that I have been a valuable asset to the company for 15 years. My family is being affected by the company actions. My wife and children are currently suffering due to the fact that we are not able to able to utilize the credits for food and other personal, family and household necessities.I also received a letter from the company stating sufficient balances on my revolving credit lines, which is a complete violation of the Federal Reserve Act sec 16 part 1 & 2. Im fully competent and overstand my rights and I'm fully aware that the remittance coupon has value. It is interest thats is owed to the principal that must be transferred to the principal 's account when instructions are provided by the agent. Because of that request thats why I believe my account was closed. You must not restrict the method in which the account is to be paid. If the agent or representative receiving this notice does not understand or is not qualified to handle this matter, you must forward this notice to your CFO or indentured trustee. you should also reach out to your legal counsel for further review if needed. I would like for all my accounts to be reopen immediately. I would not want to cause your company any liability under 18 U.S.C. 1341 due to lack of understand.
