Revel Card owned by Continental Finance Company closed my account after suspicious activity they claimed and now is treating me like a collection account. I asked the company what the activity was and they refused but they still seem to want money. I think they need to answer some questions in court on what the activity was and why no appeal process, There was no activity that any reasonable person would consider suspicious
Claimed loss: $1000

That smells like a classic "we closed it but still want your money" loophole, and I love a good puzzle. Here is your countermove: send them a certified letter demanding a written explanation of the specific suspicious activity and a full debt validation letter under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, even if they call it a closed account. Also, file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau online, because they hate that and it forces a real response. If they refuse to explain, you have leverage to dispute any collection with the credit bureaus. You are not paying a dime without a clear reason, and they are banking on you giving up. Do not.
