Fifth Third Financial Corporation Credit Card Complaint

Billing statement

Fifth Third Financial Corporation Credit card department,

Billing statement Ohio

I responded to an offer made by my bank, Fifth Third Bank, to give me a limited time, interest-free credit card if I transferred my balance from another credit card company to theirs. I accepted the offer and transferred an existing balance from another credit card company. I did not received a bill from Fifth Third Bank for 2 months until I received a bill for 2 overdue payments and penalties. I finally sorted out this problem and got the penalties removed although the bank said that they had sent me the bills which I am absolutely certain I never received. The main source of my complaint against Fifth Third is that I have received a bill since I spoke to the bank which did not have any information for a 3 year payoff. I called the bank and could not get past an uncooperative customer service agent. I requested the


the 3 year payoff option, and she denied that this was true. After a lengthy session of wait times and her reporting that her supervisor had said that they knew nothing of this option, I gave up. I have since received another bill without the 3 year option listed. I researched the 2009 Credit Card Act and found that banks ARE required to disclose this amount on their bills. I am willing to send copies of the - bills in question but lack a scanner to process them. I hope that Fifth Third Bank is fined the maximum amount allowable for violations under the Credit Card Act.
