American Express did not use my - account in - as requested but instead just took the account info from the - Check deposited in - and sent that info in for payment.Of course it was rejected. This is illegal and was certainly not authorized by me. When I called American Express for an answer. They told me I did tell them to use - but there was no record of that account after 6 years of use. Their supervisor - was most very condescending when speaking to me and lied through he teeth about where the new info came from. to protect his -.

I feel American Express should be severely fined and I should be awarded a small sum for all their abuse and time spent fixing the problem. training.
