Consumer Narrative
Gap/Barclay did not reach out to me prior to closing my Gap/Barclay credit card even though they had my email address & phone number on file. They informed me that they had sent notices to my phone which is not correct as I did not receive any emails or texts from them related to the account. In addition, they allegedly mailed out bills that I never received dated XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX on a late fee of {$21.00}. I finally received a bill at our Florida address on XX/XX/XXXX that was dated XX/XX/XXXX with a printed due date of XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately called Gap/Barclay on XX/XX/XXXX & had a long conversation explaining to them that this was the first bill I'd received & I did not realize I had a late fee due. I asked them to consider eliminating some of the additional late fees of $ XXXX & they agreed to eliminate 2 of them. I immediately paid them {$130.00} ( as on their most recent statement ) from my online XXXX XXXX XXXX account that same day & told them it would be delivered on XX/XX/XXXX. I then subsequently received a letter from Gap/Barclay on XX/XX/XXXX, but dated XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ), stating my credit card account had been closed based on non-payment. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX upon receipt of this notice. They told me they had not received the Payment of {$130.00} on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, despite the fact that it showed on my bank account that it had been paid XX/XX/XXXX as we had discussed on XX/XX/XXXX. They told me they were placing a " missing payment report '' to try to find the payment already made. I am amazed that they had all my contact info ( cell & email ) on my credit card account but no one even thought of e-mailing me or making a phone call to notify me about the payments not made. I have no desire to have another credit card with them, and I am very upset that my credit rating will be affected by this. My only request is that Gap/Barclay make XXXX there is no negative information on my credit report which has be stellar up to this point.
