Comenity Will not allow me to use my rewards points, customer service was useless

I have an NFL rewards mastercard issued thru Barkleys that I've used for over twenty years. Several years ago, the card was switched to Comenity, and the rewards program was amended (no more ability to get gift cards) and now you can only use half your rewards points as a statement credit or register to use them in the NFL shop. I haven't used my card for over a year, and throughout that time I have tried hundreds of times to "register". I fill in all the data and press the "submit" button and NOTHING HAPPENS! Today, I was committed to finally getting my money no matter how long it took. After almost two hours on the phone and going through three levels of supervisors, I was told that the "registration" page is not owned by Comenity and I'd have to contact the NFL shop. After another hour and a half speaking to the NFL shop, the NFL, and the webmaster at the NFL shop I was told they DO NOT OWN the "registration" page and that Comenity is the only entity who can fix the problem. I have not used the card in over a year, and therefore a statement credit is useless. I can't register on COMENITY'S REGISTRATION PAGE, they refuse to do anything about it, so my only option is to walk away from MY MONEY. I'm going to assume this is exactly what they want all of their NFL fans/customers to do since they refuse to acknowledge there's a problem, and refuse to do anything further about it. I have already begun to tell every person I know to cancel their Comenity NFL card, I've told the NFL they need to distance themselves from Comenity before it really hurts their business, and I will never again every use Comenity or Bread Financial (the parent company). Further I have tried repeatedly to get contact information on Bruce Bowman (CEO), or anyone else tied to the board of directors of this really lousy company. If you value your money DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!

Recommendation: Customer Service is non-existent, their rewards programs are a rip off, and they make it impossible to get your own money. DO NOT USE THEM!

Comenity Poorest customer service

A few weeks ago, I attempted to use my ALL Rewards card at a local establishment. The card, ending in 4090 (enclosed) was denied. You cannot imagine my embarrassment and surprise to find it was denied. I simply could not believe it and asked to have it run again. I knew I had a substantial available balance (it was at zero!) but I could not access it. Upon researching the problem, I found, to my dismay, that the card was cancelled due to “inactivity”. What a travesty this is! I have been an excellent customer since I joined. I have never missed a payment. I use the card and pay it off promptly. And the card is cancelled due to inactivity? What kind of customer appreciation and respect is that? In addition, your company did not have the decency to warn me that the card was about to be cancelled. More disrespectful customer service. You cancel cards because you are not getting your exorbitant interest rate fee?

I am retuning your ‘priceless’ card, cut up. I do not want to use a card that treats its customers with such disrespect. I have advised my friends and family to cancel their cards, if they have one for just the same reason. Do not send me offers to join. All this company wants is its interest rate fees. Comenity Bank is absolutely the worst bank to do business with ever.

Recommendation: Stay away from Comenity Bank

Comenity Comenity Review: Unreliable Payment Processing and Poor Customer Service

Comenity is a company that I would not recommend to anyone. They are the worst company to work with. When you send them a payment, they take 20 days to process it, which makes it late. Then, they charge you a late fee. It's frustrating because you're trying to do the right thing by paying on time, but they make it difficult for you.

When you try to call them to see what's taking so long, they give you the run around. It's like they don't care about their customers at all. They should be more transparent about their payment processing times and not charge late fees if they're the ones causing the delay.

Overall, I would not suggest Comenity to anyone. They're not a trustworthy company and they don't value their customers. If you're looking for a company to work with, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Comenity Comenity Bank Review: Shady Interest Charges and Frustrating Service

So, I've been using Comenity for a while now and I gotta say, I'm not too happy with their service. I always make sure to pay off my statement balance at the end of every month, but for some reason, they still charge me interest. I don't get it, they told me that interest is a month in arrears, but that just sounds like a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me.

Honestly, it's frustrating because I feel like this is how banks mess up your credit score by being all shady and whatnot. I mean, come on, I'm doing my part by paying off my balance on time, why can't they do theirs and not charge me extra fees?

Overall, I think Comenity is the worst bank for credit cards. I really hope that Victoria's Secret finds another bank to service their cards like BJs did. I'm just so annoyed with this whole situation.

But hey, maybe it's just me. Maybe I'm not understanding something or maybe I'm just not good with finances. Either way, I just wanted to share my experience with Comenity and let others know to be careful when using their services.

Having the same problem. Pay my card off every month using online bill pay. Verified documentation that my bill was paid an received before the due date. They delayed posting the payment for nearly 10 days. Charged me a $29 late charge and $16 of interest. Customer service hung up on me when trying to resolve this issue. Worst bank ever. Going to cut up their card and never use it again.

Comenity Unreliable Pin Delivery: My Disappointing Experience with Comenity

I gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed with Comenity. I've been waiting for my pin to arrive for what feels like forever now. I've asked them to send it to me three times already, and each time they tell me it's on its way. But guess what? It never shows up! What's the point of having this card if I can't even use it when I need it most? I was planning on using it for some extra cash while I was out of town, but now I'm stuck without it.

I tried asking them why my card isn't working, but all they could tell me was that they could send me another one. Like, seriously? What good is that gonna do if the first three pins haven't even shown up yet? It's frustrating to say the least.

I really hope Comenity can get their act together and figure out what's going on with my pin. I'm not sure how much longer I can wait for it to arrive. It's just not a good look for them to be so unreliable. I'm starting to regret getting this card in the first place.

Comenity Comenity's Shady Practices: A Review of Their Unethical Treatment of Consumers

Comenity is a company that has been causing a lot of trouble lately. They don't have any accreditation, and there are some good reasons for that. They have some pretty shady practices that make it hard for consumers to trust them. It's really disappointing, because people should be able to expect ethical treatment from any business they deal with.

One of the biggest problems with Comenity is that they like to hide behind the names of other companies. For example, they manage the Visa credit cards for companies like Williams Sonoma. But even though these cards are offered in the name of these other companies, they're still subject to Comenity's fine print policies. And those policies can be pretty brutal.

It's really frustrating that Comenity is able to get away with this kind of thing. They need to be held accountable for their actions. It's not fair to consumers who are just trying to do the right thing and manage their finances responsibly. The federal authorities really need to step in and investigate this company. Something needs to be done to stop them from taking advantage of people.

Comenity Stay Away from Comenity: Disreputable Partnerships and Terrible Customer Support

Comenity is a company that I would not recommend doing business with. They have partnerships with disreputable companies that scam people out of their hard-earned money. When you try to get help from Comenity, they give you the runaround and side with the scammers. It's frustrating to have to pay for something that you never received, especially when you're paying an absurd interest rate.

Their customer support is not helpful at all. They don't seem to care about their customers and only care about making money. Even when you provide proof that you never received the product, they still side with the scam company. It's almost like they're getting kickbacks from the scammers.

I highly recommend staying away from Comenity and any company that partners with them. It's not worth the risk of getting scammed and having to deal with their terrible customer support. There are plenty of other companies out there that are more trustworthy and have better customer service.

Comenity Comenity's Poor Service Cost Me Money & Loyalty to Kay Jewelers

I ain't never gonna finance nothin' through Kay Jewelers again, thanks to this bankin' company called Comenity. They took a whole three weeks to cash my check, just so they could charge me interest! My due date was on the 17th of every month, and I had the bank send a check on the 8th. But Comenity still waited until the 22nd to cash it, just so they could make a quick buck off of me. And when I called them up to complain, they just dismissed me and made me pay up anyways. It's piss poor service on their end, and now Kay's is dealin' with the repercussions. But you know what? There are plenty of other jewelry stores out there, and that's where we're shoppin' now. So long, Kay Jewelers and Comenity!

Comenity Comenity Credit Card Review: Terrible Customer Service and Harassment

So, I had a credit card from Victoria's Secret that was through Comenity. I missed one payment and they started calling everyone and their mother trying to get in touch with me. They called my father-in-law, my sister, and even my husband's grandmother who is in hospice care at a nursing facility. I don't even know how they got all of these phone numbers because none of them are on my account. They kept calling and leaving messages, which was really annoying and felt like harassment. It's just not acceptable to treat customers like that.

Eventually, I paid off my card and closed the account. But now, they're calling me again because my mom missed a payment on her card. It's like they never give up! This is just ridiculous and never-ending. I don't understand why they have to be so aggressive and persistent. It's not like we're trying to avoid paying our bills or anything. We just missed one payment and they acted like it was the end of the world.

Overall, I would not recommend Comenity to anyone. Their customer service is terrible and they don't seem to care about their customers at all. If you're looking for a credit card, I would suggest going with a different company that actually values their customers and treats them with respect.

Comenity Comenity: Frustrating Payment Issues and Poor Customer Service

I've been dealing with Comenity for a few months now and let me tell you, it's been a real hassle. I've tried to make payments through several different methods, but none of them seem to work. It's been frustrating to say the least. Finally, I decided to call a representative to help me out. They were able to process my payment, but then I received a call from Comenity collections telling me that my account was past due. I was confused because I had just made a payment. Apparently, my payment was showing up, but not posting. When I called to ask about this, the representative I spoke with was quite smug and told me that "calls will continue until the payment is made". What a bunch of [censored]s!

I have several lines of credit with Comenity, including BJs, Famous Footwear, Venus, and Boscov's. If I didn't need these accounts for my credit report, I would close them all in a heartbeat. I called customer service with four different issues, but not a single one was resolved. It's frustrating to deal with a company that doesn't seem to care about their customers.

Overall, my experience with Comenity has been less than satisfactory. I'm not sure if I would recommend them to anyone. If you're looking for a company that values their customers and provides excellent customer service, you might want to look elsewhere. As for me, I'll be sticking with Comenity for now, but I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for other options.

Comenity Nightmare Bank Alert: My Experience with Comenity Bank

This bank is a total nightmare, let me tell you. They took over the AAA Visa card accounts from Bank of America and everything has been a mess ever since. I had those AAA Visa cards for years and never had a problem with Bank of America. But once Comenity Bank got their hands on them, it's been one headache after another.

First of all, they changed the billing dates without any warning. I mean, how are you supposed to keep track of your payments when they keep moving the due date around? And then they renewed the wrong account, which caused even more confusion. I tried to reach out to them to get it sorted out, but it's like they don't even exist. I couldn't get through to anyone on the phone, and their online chat was always offline.

I have a credit score of over 800, which is pretty darn good if you ask me. I've never had a late payment with anyone in my life, but Comenity seems to think I owe them money. They keep harassing me by mail and email, saying I owe them late fees. I disputed it with them, but they just won't let it go. It's like they're trying to extort money from me or something.

I'm not the only one who's had problems with Comenity, either. BJ's wholesale stopped doing business with them as of January 2023 because they were so unhappy with their service. And I don't blame them one bit.

I closed any credit card that was associated with Comenity, and I suggest you do the same. They are the worst bank ever, and I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy. Lord knows how long this is going to go on, but I'm not going to let them get the best of me. If I owed them anything, they would have been paid. But I don't, and I won't let them bully me into giving them money I don't owe.

Comenity Comenity Review: Terrible Customer Service and Dishonest Policies

So, I had this experience with Comenity (comenity.net) that I just have to share. Last year, I made a huge purchase at Overstock.com and was thrilled to find out that I could pay it off in 12 months with no interest. I mean, who wouldn't be excited about that, right? But then, the merchandise took almost a month to be delivered, which was a bit of a bummer.

Anyway, fast forward to my last month of payment and I was hit with a $541 extra charge on my statement. I was shocked and confused, to say the least. So, I decided to contact customer service to try and sort things out. And let me tell you, I have never been treated so poorly in my entire life.

The attendant and supervisor I spoke with were both extremely unprofessional and rude. They didn't seem to care about my issue at all and were unable to work it out. It honestly felt like I was being pranked or something. I was so frustrated and disappointed.

After that terrible experience, I decided to reach out to them again through Facebook Messenger. They opened a ticket for me and said they would get back to me in 2-3 days. But guess what? It's been a week and I haven't heard a peep from them. Not a great look, Comenity.

I've since seen thousands of 1-star reviews about this company's policies, how dishonest they are, and how terrible their customer service is. It's really a shame that people have to deal with this kind of thing. That's why I'm posting this review here - to let people know what kind of company they're dealing with.

Overall, I would definitely caution anyone against doing business with Comenity. It's just not worth the hassle and frustration.

Highly recommended, but caution will not hurt.

Our conclusion: After a detailed review, ComplaintsBoard finds Comenity to be a trustworthy company. Although there's a 0% resolution rate for customer complaints, which deserves attention, Comenity is known for their high standards and safety. If you're thinking about dealing with Comenity, it's wise to check how they handle complaints.

We found clear and detailed contact information for Comenity. The company provides a physical address, 2 phone numbers, and 2 emails, as well as 3 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.

Comenity.net has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Comenity.net has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

Comenity as a website that uses an external review system. While this can provide valuable feedback and insights, it's important to carefully evaluate the source of the reviews and take them with a grain of salt.

We looked up Comenity and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

This website offers payment methods that provide the option for customers to get their money back, which could be a positive indicator of the company's commitment to customer satisfaction.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • While Comenity has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 0% of 219 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
  • Comenity protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Comenity. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

Comenity I tried four time changed my password/username with Women Within Comenity

I hate "Comenity" with any along with Women Within or Full Beauty, even with a new Dell Technology too (it is new)! I have an issue changing my password/username four times and still, it doesn't work. The Company of Comenity is a mess! My billing has been increased because of not make a payment due to the issued password and username. So I found an address for the Payment Center, P.O. Box 659728, San Antonio, TX [protected]. I (mailed) sent it a third time with a check, and it keeps returning back to my address with an unknown address. It is frustration. Plus I did send an email to Women Within about my problem, and I asked them to please send me a billing statement, and I never ever got a response from them. What more can I do? I am deaf, and I am on disability, and plus the Women Within keeps increasing payment because of the past three or four months of missed payments. I cannot contact Women Within online, and I cannot write to this company. What choice do I have? I am stuck!

Claimed loss: I have significant bills because of missed payments due to complex online with "Comenity Bank".

Desired outcome: It should never used by Comenity Bank because I feel it is scammed. I log in (I have kept my log-in book for many years), and still, it doesn't take it. These companies need to fix the website. I will never touch it. I do not trust it.

we got had by people that work on your behalf in Las Vegas. all underdress. we were told its not a time share, it is most definitely is a time share. We tried to cancel but they never answerd their phone calls . numerous emails, left messages, were all ignored. and phone number they gave us is disconnected. i feel maybe you should look into this. it's nothing you did rest assured of that. I find they were not professional at all. they talked about all the prisons he was in and seemed to be proud of being a gang member and the guns he owns. The whole ordeal just gave us an uneasy feeling. I sure hope you can help us we can't afford to have my credit harmed for this Thank you in advance

Comenity Billing practices

I paid this account in full in March of 2023 I returned a bit late from a trip when I did my last payment. The automated system for their pay by phone did not indicate that I was late. I received a bill in May with 2 late fees I called them and I told them to close the account. They continued to add a late fee after late fee and interest on top of the late fee. I have had the worst experience with this bank. The thing is I did not have a balance and their unfair practices have ruined my credit.

Claimed loss: Negative adverse credit rating dropped from 700's to 630

Comenity Access to make payments online

With both my Lane Bryant account and Academy account, I can never get access to make my payment online. I start fighting your website 2-3 days before my payment is due and end up paying on the day it is due.

My bank takes it out the next day and you charge me a late fee.

This is the poorest excuse of customer service I have experienced. This has been going on for several months and I have not seen any improvement.

It is hard to pay off my comenity accounts and cut my credit cards so I don't have to deal with this frustration, when you keep adding fraudulent charges to my accounts.

Desired outcome: I would like a response and an explaination as to how and when this problem will be corrected. I would also like to discuss the extra charges on my accounts and have them removed.

I'm having a problem with getting my Rewards Points. I used my card to pay for my season tickets this past May, but they have never given me the Rewards Points that I earned with that purchase. I was given the run-around for the delay initially--they said I had to go through two billing cycles before that could give me the points--but that never happened. I send messages to them constantly, but I keep getting the same response. I filed the "grievance" but that gives them 120 days to come to a decision. It's been 60 days already. By the time they come to a decision the balance on my account will be paid off, and I won't have anything left to put those rewards points towards. I'll have to use the card. I don't really want to ever do that again. I used it initially to let me spread out the payments for my tickets, but I wanted a little off of my balance with the rewards points--it would have saved me about $150. No a lot, but something. I will never use this card again to pay for my season tickets. It's not worth all of the aggravation it has caused me. I would like to report them to someone, but I don't know who to report them to. Don't sign up for this card. Barclay did a far SUPERIOR job when they ran the show!

Comenity AAA Visa Card

When Comenity/ Bread Financial took over my credit card I did not receive a bill for months. I started receiving late notices and no bill. I would call them and they would tell me my payment was past due.

I finally received one bill a week after the late notice came. Since February I have not received any bills or late notices.

Now I see they have hit my credit claiming I am 90+ days late.

Desired outcome: I want them to remove any lates from my credit and I will pay them off and close the account. Worst customer service ever!

Late summer of 2022, I received a letter from bank of America informing me that my AAA visa is switching from bank of America to comenity capital bank. Nothing would change and I would not lose my current rewards. I called bank of America to check on my rewards and they told me I had $681.56 that was near expiration and they sent that check. That check wa...

Comenity Boscovs credit card

Account reactivated to purchase shoes on sale. Reactivator did not verify address - we had moved. Paid the balance in FULL when bill was finally received after being forwarded by P.O. - 2 months later. Have had 3 late fees added while the check was being processed - not sure why. Have since made 11 calls to Comenity. 2 today and on transfer to a supervisor, who is the only one able to address late fees, I was cut off; requiring dialing back, entering all of the info again, listening to prompt options that do not apply. I AM QUITE DONE WITH THIS. I HAVE DONE MY DUE DILIGENCE and then some. PLEASE ERASE THE BALANCE, CLOSE THE ACCOUNT. I WILL NEVER SET FOOT INTO A BOSCOVS AGAIN! Account last 4 digits: 1410. Last 4 of SS 1695. Name: Bernice Harding, 29 Woodbrook Drive, Coatesville, PA 19320

Paid in full on receipt of bill on 6/2/2023 $151.05. Cleared my bank on 6/12. Balance was then $3.09. Now it is up to $45.09 AGAIN with the late fee. Supervisor on 7/24 told me it would be cleared out in 24 hours. Still getting BILLS. On the phone now with Kayla at Headquarters.

Desired outcome: Zero out the balance as promised on 7/24/23 by supervisor of $45.09. Account is already closed. DO NOT EVER SEND ME ANOTHER BILL.....EVER!!!!!

Comenity Victoria secret card being closed for no valid reason

I dont use this card a whole lot. Probably only 2 or three times a year and always pay balance off early. I recieved a letter saying they were closing my account due to inactivity or my due to my credit score report. I messaged online to appeal the discion because I have 100 % payment ontime history for the past few years and have used my card responsibly . My account was still closed and I'm worried it's going to hurt my credit score that I've worked so hard to raise these past 8 years. This is just a terrible way to treat good customers.

Desired outcome: Credit reinstated so it doesn't hurt my score and if any negative remarks made the be removed

Comenity Credit card was closed due to inactivity

To Whom It May Concern,

I am emailing this to you as I have been in contact with two representatives on July 29, 2023 & July 30, 2023) regarding the above matter. I have been informed that my card cannot be reactivated. I'm very upset as I was told by one of your representatives, Zach, that two letters prior to the third and final letter closing my account would have been sent by mail. I did not receive either of those two letters. I only received the third and final letter. Hence, Zach sent an email to Christina, who is one of your supervisors, and the response I was given today, July 30, 2023, as I called in again since I did not hear back from Christina was that she is unable to reactivate my card ending in 0153 due to inactivity. My card expires on May, 2026. This now is going to cause a negative remark on my credit bureau which I am not happy about. I have been a customer of Zales for many years! If I would have received the other two letters, I would have called immediately, just like I did yesterday (Saturday, July 29, 2023) receiving a letter to close my account, or I would have made a purchase with my card. I want to stay with Zales, but should not have to reapply for another card which, hence, will also pull on my credit rating. Please reopen my account so I am not inconvenienced any further or sustain a negative rating on my credit bureau as those numbers are imperative to a person which defines the responsibility of an individual, and when things like this show a negative impact, it impacts a lot to the future of an individual (i.e. employment, home, car, insurance, etc.). I should not be punished for this as a result of not receiving two other letters.

Thank you for your time and consideration with regard to this matter.

Sincerely,

Susan L. Katana

Desired outcome: Please reopen my account for the issues mentioned and personal credibility.

Comenity False charging

I pay by y debit card each month, from my primary checking account. Today I received a letter from Comenity Full Beauty stating that my last 2 payments were "returned" by the bank, and that my account is now frozen. I also was charged with returned payment fees.

I have been poring through my bank statements, and I am unable to find any place where my payments were returned. The money was available in my bank, and appears to have been paid out on the date I made the payments.

When I called to speak with someone at Comenity, I was barely able to understand what they were saying, and she seemed to not understand what I was telling her either. I was so frustrated by the end of the call that I just made the amount due payment and decided to speak with my bank tomorrow about the issue.

I can say that I will be closing ALL accounts that deal with Comenity ASAP!

I feel like this is some sort of scheme being used to bilk money out of people, even GOOD customers!

Desired outcome: Refund the "returned payment" fees that have been charged to my account, and undo the damage to my credit score that this will undoubtedly cause!!Oh, and apologize......
