Complaint: Earlier this year Barclays called me asking about why not staying current on card. I advised I was, but because of a dispute over a late fee, it spiraled out of control. Several attempts were ignored and nothing done. Agent arranged to call me back later that day.
I call Barclays when agent missed call back time. Retold story and got no where. Gave up. Frustrated took some time and called back.
Agent worked out agreement and advised amount needed to be paid and late fees will be removed. Interest to be recalculated. Payment made. Call ended.
Time goes by next bill arrives and again past due! Call in and was advised a payment plan and reduced interest can be offered. So I take it. Letter confirmation was to be sent. ( Never received ). Payment to bring compliance and make initial {$33.00} payment was made with agent.
Next bill again past due. Credit continues to be damaged with bad payment statuses. Barclays doesnt care. Bounced around finally get a USA supervisor. Situation explained and supervisor is just confused. Supervisor looks up call records and requested tape pulls. Follow up to occur which never happened. Minimum {$33.00} paid.
Call back at next bill and still past due with no response, minimum XXXX paid again. Bouncing around again finally get USA supervisor. Supervisor reviews notes and understands situation.
When payment agreement was made was after bill closing date, but still in old cycle. This was late XXXX. Agent making agreement caused problem by putting into XXXX and not correct month of XXXX.
Supervisor takes info and supposed to call me back. No call received.
Communication to Barclays via secured online email is generic unrelated responses. Letter sent by via USPS advising that matter is still being investigated.
Received letter advising account is being transferred to XXXX. Now I have no agreement from Barclays. Continuous unresolved disputes against Barclays, whom is only delaying resolution until account transfer.
Unacceptable. Barclays needs to keep this account resolve the issues and update the damage they caused to my credit.

Trouble using your card
Credit card or prepaid card: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Complaint: I had a credit card account with Baclays Bank for an XXXX card for the credit card line amount of {$3000.00}. As of XX/XX/2018 I decided to pay the entire balance in full. After making this payment in full prior to the billing cycle close and there was a XXXX balance. I was charged {$63.00} interest on a XXXX balance after the billing cycle closed. I called customer service to complain about the balance and have it removed due to it being an error. The customer service did not agree and would not remove the error. I demanded to speak with a manager. The manager had the {$63.00} balance credited. However, as retaliation she had my account sent to be reviewed for having a high balance on my credit card account. Mind you the balance was {$0.00} at this time. Nor had my account ever been triggered before this incident for a High credit balance. I called Monday XX/XX/2018 because I received a credit alert that my credit limit had been lowered to {$500.00}. I called to be given an explanation why. The manager XXXX informed me it was due to high credit card limit activity. Even though at this time the balance was {$0.00}. I informed XXXX I feel I have been discriminated against in their banking practices. I asked XXXX what is their protocol if I wanted to file a formal discrimination complaint. XXXX stated there was only an internal investigation that will be held. At the conclusion of this investigation of what the findings were the customer would not be contacted. At this time I feel I was discriminated against and retaliated against due to me complaining that the Bank was attempting to charge me interest on a {$0.00} credit card balance.

Closing your account
Credit card or prepaid card: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Company closed your account
Complaint: I had a credit card through XXXX XXXX ( Barclays Bank ). Last XX/XX/XXXX there was a credit balance on the account. There was an automatic {$8.00} charge from XXXX and then then XXXX XXXX charged {$180.00} for the " annual charge ''. I was in the hospital and received no emails, no paper bills etc. Then I get an email in XX/XX/XXXX saying that my account is being closed and I was reported to the credit bureau. When I found out, I paid the full amount but the account was still closed and they kept the annual fee. I called and complained and was basically told that was their policy. That is completely wrong. I would not have authorized a {$180.00} dollar annual fee and asked them to close the account as it is not worth it. They will not take it off my credit report and have {$180.00} for a credit card that I don't even have. That is stealing in my view.

Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Credit card or prepaid card: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms
Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX, I cancelled the XXXX card that I took out in XX/XX/XXXX, because none of the inducements to applying for the card had been provided. When I called and asked that the annual fee of {$95.00} be refunded, that request was denied. I have paid all the amount due on my card, less that {$95.00} and wrote to them disputing the debt. They have made no attempt to resolve the issue and instead have charged late fees and interest and have now taken the step of reporting me to the credit agencies as delinquent on the account in an attempt to bully me into submission. They have lied, deceived and made it as difficult as possible to try to access the benefits promised.
I request that the debt be written off and Barclays Bank be required to do whatever is necessary to repair my credit record with the 3 reporting agencies.

Can't use card to make purchases
Complaint: On XX/XX/2018, credit card payment of {$8000.00} was made and it was posted on Barclays credit card on XX/XX/2018.
On XX/XX/2018 ( same day ), Barclays Card decreased credit limit to {$6900.00} ( decreased for the amount of the {$8000.00} payment made and posted ) without any notification to customer ( myself ). This is abusive business practice as a registered financial institution.
On XX/XX/2018, I called customer service, spoke to customer service representative name XXXX ( ID # : XXXX / XXXX XXXX office ) and confirmed that there's no letter/notification went out to customer. ( XXXX ) Barclays credit card is in standing, always was, never made late payment.

Problem with fees
Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX I seriously concerned and disappointed in how Barclays charge interest, apply late fees, and apply other hidden costs to keep the balances high on my credit card accounts ending XXXX and XXXX even after I make substantial payments.
I noticed that if I make a payment on the due date after XXXX ( CST ) which is XXXX ( EST ) you apply late fees ; this is fraud.
In addition, the amount Barclays charge toward interest and the ending statement balances do not correspond ; this too is fraud.
Finally, I can not determine how Barclays is calculating the interest payment in order to obtain the amount of true interest owed - when I try to add or calculate the interest listed it does not match Barclays amount ; this is also fraud.
This has been occurring since XXXX on the account ending in XXXX and since XXXX on the account ending in XXXX Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Credit card or prepaid card: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Complaint: I am writing to ask for your assistance in settling a dispute with Barclays Bank XXXX XXXX MasterCard over unauthorized charges to my credit card in the amount of {$13000.00}. These charges were fraudulently processed by the employees of XXXX XXXXXXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The false charges were made to my credit card while I was in XXXX with my family for the XXXX XXXX.
While reviewing my recent credit card activity on XX/XX/XXXX, less than 2 days after patronizing XXXX XXXX, I was shocked to see 13 individual charges that I had not authorized posted by XXXX XXXX ( aka XXXX XXXX ) adding up to a total of {$13000.00}! I immediately called MasterCard to ask them to stop payment on these charges and explained that I had not authorized them. At the time of my phone call to MasterCard the charges were in a pending stage. The MasterCard representative informed me that an investigation would take place regarding this matter. However, it was also explained to me that since my card was a chip card and because I was still in possession of this card that MasterCard considered these to be valid charges.
Details of the individual bills including the items that I supposedly ordered while at XXXX XXXX are attached. The bulk of the phony charges were attributed to 44 bottles of champagne and wine that I had allegedly ordered. ( To provide a bit of context, I spent the evening at XXXX XXXX with a childhood friend, and hence the notion that 2 people ordered 44 bottles of champagne/wine is beyond outlandish. ) After getting off the phone with the MasterCard representative, I immediately went to XXXX XXXXXXXX to discuss the unauthorized charges they had posted to my card. The manager became irate with me, shouted expletives and then produced 13 receipts for the charges. As this was clearly a scam, my next step was to report this illegal activity to the XXXX XXXX police department. The police assured me that they would investigate.
Since my initial phone call to MasterCard, I reached out to them several times to discuss this matter. I provided them with a summary of the events and details of the receipts to emphasize the outrageous and highly dubious charges. I also included a receipt from the XXXX XXXX police department confirming that I reported the crime to the appropriate authorities. It should also be noted that on 2 separate occasions, investigators in the fraud department at MasterCard confirmed that XXXX XXXX had been uncooperative in terms of providing information from their end.
Although MasterCard officially closed the case on XX/XX/XXXX stating that I am responsible for the full {$13000.00}, I contacted them once again to re open the case. They could not guarantee that they would re open the case, and hence, I would like to request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau help me to resolve this dispute with Barclays XXXX XXXX MasterCard.
My wife and I are distraught over this situation and are extremely angry with Barclays XXXX XXXX MasterCard for their inaction. I dont understand how they allowed 13 charges to be posted to my account from the same business over a course of a few hours. How was this not flagged as suspicious activity and stopped? Arent there processes in place to stop consecutive suspicious charges? MasterCard claims to use all kinds of tactics including artificial intelligence to detect fraudulent activity, but these phony charges were allowed to continue to be processed in approximately 20-30 minute intervals. What kind of protection is this for the consumer especially considering that this activity took place in a country where fraud and financial scams are sadly not uncommon. MasterCard claims to have a zero liability policy for unauthorized charges, however, in this situation they are holding me responsible for outrageously large charges that I did not authorize.
I have been a Barclays XXXX XXXX MasterCard holder in good standing since XXXX and have never had a monthly bill that came anywhere near the amount that was charged to my card by XXXX XXXX.
Attached are photocopies of phony receipts, a summary of those receipts, and a letter from Barclays XXXX MasterCard stating that I am responsible for the unauthorized charges. I truly appreciate your help in rectifying this difficult situation.
