Now I 'd like to move debt / consolidate to lower interest products and am unable to because all companies say my debt to income ration is too high. I 'm stuck with too high of a credit balance with an enormous amount of interest rate with no possibility of moving to lower interest products.

This effectively created a maxed out tradeline, which hurts my credit scoring. I was given no advance warning. This was done because the card was on auto-pay and not utilzed. I am in the process of refinancing my home mortgage and a maxed out tradeline hurts my credit eligibility. This practice is inconsistent with consumers ' best interest and harmful to tradeline reporting. This should not be done if tradeline is in perfect standing. Wells Fargo ref...
