Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Consumer Complaint: I took out the Barclays Carnival credit card prior to my XX/XX/XXXX cruise. Once on board the ship my daughter and I utilized the spa. My daughter received a pedicure that was billed in the amount of {$80.00}. My credit card was billed on XX/XX/XXXX for the that charge. The day before we disembarked the ship ( Thursday XX/XX/XXXX ) at XXXX XXXX my card was charged again for this service. It is a duplicate charge in the amount of {$80.00}. I received a final statement prior to us disembarking the ship and this duplicate charge came AFTER I was provided my statement. On monday XX/XX/XXXX I reviewed my credit card statement and saw the second charge as well as an addiontal XXXX XXXX I immediately called XXXX XXXX line and the XXXX $ charge was corrected, however I was told the spa is a third party vendor and they could not refund me for that duplicate charge. I then contacted Barclays Carnival master card and opened a dispute. I had XXXX email me an update copy of my statement where is showed the charge of {$80.00} that had been billed twice. I highlighted both charges and mail this to them per their request. several times over the last 4 weeks I have received vague calls or letters from the credit card company asking me to call in regarding the dispute. I have each time. After waiting on hold for very long periods, they always act like they have no idea why I was told to call in. Today however I received the news that they refused my dispute and will be making me responsible for paying this duplicate charge. They could provide no reason other than the two charges had two different time stamps. Of course they have two different time stamps - the card was ran TWICE for this service. I am extremely upset with the customer service and how this credit card company is allowing me to be fraudulently billed. I fully cooperated with everything they asked me to downs find it very suspicious that this is a " XXXX '' credit card and the fraudulent charge is for " XXXX '' however no one wants to do anything to fix it. The credit card company said contact the cruise line and the cruise line says the spa is not part of their ship ( even though they advertise it and offer incentives / promotions ). I would like advice on how to proceed since I have never been treated this way by a credit card company.

Consumer Complaint: I applied for a Barclays Bank World Arrival credit card over 6 months ago. Barclay 's said that my application was pending approval until they received some additional information from me. I sent in the additional information as soon as they requested it and they still have not approved my application.

Consumer Complaint: Through my interaction with Barclay Bank over the last several years, it is in my opinion that this bank fails to conduct business in professional and ethical manner. Latest unresolved problem : I had received kitchen cabinets that were damaged and had errors in the order that were charged on my credit card in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. When the merchant wasn't responsive to resolve, I disputed the two charges on my credit card, XXXX Visa by Barclay Bank. My first being, they failed to register my dispute and charge back until months later ( XX/XX/XXXX ) when I followed up. The merchant noticing this charge back months after deliver of the cabinets filed a police report. Even though not resolved, I wasn't willing to turn a civil case into a criminal one and I removed the dispute in XX/XX/XXXX. I was finally rebilled on XX/XX/XXXX ( {$2000.00} and {$830.00} ). The merchant claimed he was not credited and filed a mechanics lien on a housing co-op property where I live. I called multiple times and mailed a letter asking for proof the merchant was paid. I never received the letter that I was first asking for nor did I receive the details I requested. I requested what day and time was the merchant issued the payment, what manner of payment, and what merchant account was issued the credit. The matter is now urgent with 3rd party lawyers for the housing co-op involved that are threatening to hold me accountable for the legal fees if the mechanics lien is not removed within the next week. I tried to explain the urgency with multiple calls and with multiple representatives on XX/XX/XXXX to no avail. Instead, I get customer service representatives at Barclay Bank who laugh at me and give me a reprogrammed response. This is the norm, not the exception when dealing with Barclay Bank. Also, please be aware that the number they have been recently providing on the XXXX XXXX XXXX is inaccurate. I called this number and it was for the hearing impaired, no stated connection to the company. Further evidence that they fail to function in a businesslike manner. See below : " We appreciate the time you took to speak with us regarding this matter. Should you have additional concerns, please feel free to contact us via phone at XXXX so that a member of our Office of the President can further assist you. Our hours of operation are XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX eastern time, Monday through Friday. ''

Consumer Complaint: XX/XX/19 - I noticed that there was a double charge on my account from a merchant ( when I only made 1 ), logged into my account on Barclays ' website and there were some strange messages of account past due when I had paid my latest statement in full. I called Barclays and spoke to an agent about both things and was told that I did not make any transactions between the dates XXXX-XXXX when I obviously have and was calling about them and was told that the website is working accurately. Agent refused to recognize the evidence of contrary. Agent told me his name was " XXXX '' and employee ID was XXXX. Recognizing that I wasn't getting the help I needed, I specifically asked the Agent to note my account of what he told me and ended the call. XX/XX/19 - I called again, I mentioned the experience that I had on the call on previous day and was met with apathy and told me there were no notes on my account. Website info is now correct, so I asked about the double charge. Agent told me that it would be credited back to me. I asked agent to note the account. XX/XX/19 - I noticed that I had received a credit of {$0.00} ( yes XXXX XXXX ) instead of the amount promised to me by the agent I spoke to. The agent I got this time said again there is no note on the account and when I lament my trouble, did not acknowledge them and wanted to transfer me. The transferred agent ( 2nd one on this call ) was also of no help and had to transfer me again. The 3rd agent ( id : XXXX ) I spoke to again said no note was taken but she would address the issue, so I have not seen any resolution nor do I now have any confidence that it will be fixed. All in all I spent hours on these calls ( including holds and IVR routing ), spoke to 5 agents, and was agitated with my experience.

Consumer Complaint: I logged onto Frontier Miles website to use my XXXX miles towards a hotel booking. The website will not allow me to use the max of my earned miles to book ( there is a scroll bar that allows you to modify amounts, but this scroll bar isn't working at all ) I don't want to pay cash when I have miles. At least as little of cash as possible. So far I have used different browsers and come to the conclusion it is not my computers or Ipads. The first rep advised she can do it on her side and offered to login for me. I provided the password, she fiddled around for a good 10 minutes then hung up on me. The second rep/supervisor ( XXXX ) advised that there is no longer offers for a booking of a hotel for miles. BUT it's clearly an option on the website to use. Otherwise, this is false advertising! I've earned these miles. They could not escalate and advised they said they will forward to customer service or a call back from a manager named XXXX. Nothing! This is an emergency trip! I need to book ASAP.

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Barclays US MasterCard to see if they had a financial hardship plan. I was advised I had to be late in on payments in order to do that. I told them I would not hurt my credit by being late just to get on hardship. I said " you know I could file bankruptcy and you would get nothing. '' I hung on the person. I never told them I was doing it or hired an attorney to do it. They never received any documentation from me or any attorney that I was filing bankruptcy. This individual took it upon themselves to cancel my auto payment that was scheduled for XX/XX/XXXX, close my account without my knowledge and report it as late and closed to the three major credit bureaus. Barclays NEVER notified me of this either in writing in the form of a letter, call or email. Now my credit has been harmed significantly by removing the available credit, reporting as past due and closing by XXXX. I told them have 24 hours to reinstate my account, change the credit reporting, refund any late fees or charges and take the monthly payment. If they do not I will file a legal grievance against them. I want Barclays to pay me for financial damage to my credit.

Subissue: Problem during payment process
Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/19 I entered into a repayment agreement with Barclays to pay $ XXXX/mn on my account. I paid them {$160.00} on XX/XX/19 & set it up on an auto pay for the XXXX of the month, when the bill is originally due. I made sure to specify they were to take out $ XXXX/mn only. On XX/XX/19, Barclays not only withdrew {$1000.00} from my checking acct, but they set up their own auto pay in the amount of " other ''. On XX/XX/19, I received a notice from my bank that I had used the overdraft on my account. After investigating, I saw that Barclays had removed the {$1000.00} without my consent & had set up an auto pay of their own to be withdrawn on the XXXX of each month in an undeterminable amount. I immediately contacted Barclays. The customer service agent told me that I had set that auto pay up & authorized the withdraw of {$1000.00}. I talked to XXXX, a supervisor, who advised me that it was a computer glitch. She said it would take 25 days for them to investigate. I contacted my bank, talking to XXXX. She started the process of disputing this withdraw, saying it would take 10 days. On XX/XX/19, I received the {$1000.00} back into my account. Barclays shows the transaction on their end as " an unauthorized cash advance. '' While I have received the funds back, I have been charged with overdraft fees in the amount of {$180.00}, late fees from the gas company, mortgage company & a couple of credit card companies as well as return check fees from the same companies. This would not have happened had Barclays not removed the funds from my account on XX/XX/19. I removed my bank account from my Barclays account. I received the email confirmation for the {$160.00} auto pay AND for another auto pay with the amount " OTHER '' where the payment would be.
