Bank of America Credit Card Complaint

Delinquent account

Bank of America Credit card department,

Delinquent account Texas

I 've had a credit card with Bank of America for 8 years. In the last few months I was having trouble making my payments. I called in and requested assistance and was told the assistance offered to me would make my payment hire. I then spoke with an associate about a settlement and decided that would be something I would like to do. After agreeing to the settlement, I did more research on the topic to make the best decision for myself then decided I would rather pay the loan in full and keep the card and acct. I called in to cancel the settlement and to advise I would like to pay in full. The representative repeatedly agreed that would be the best choice. She later told me I could n't cancel the settlement. Her manager later got on the phone and completed the cancel action in a few minutes. The next day, my account was charged off. I advised I only canceled the settlement due to my preference to pay in full. The representative told me she could put in a request to reverse the charge-off and scheduled a payment for approx. $6500.00. I advised I believe


charge off and was advised I had a balance of approx. $1100.00. I then got transferred and was advised of a $ - balance. I walked her through my desires to resolve the account in full and have the charge off removed and my card reactivated. She adjusted the payment I have scheduled for -/-/- to reflect the full $ - but I still do n't know if doing this I will still have a charge off on my credit report. I 've been a customer of bank of America since I was -/- years old. I initially asked for assistance and could n't receive any. Now, acquiring the funds to repay my debt has turned out to be frightening and disappointing. I am currently in a charge off status. I am out of - dollars and have nothing to show for my ability to repay my debt. Instead of securing a promise to pay for the payment in full, the agent decided to charge off my account. I do n't feel appreciated as a customer and I do n't believe Bank of America truly is interested in me doing the right thing. I can remember the agent on the phone when I expressed my desires to payoff the account in full asking me ... '' if you have money to payoff the account, why not continue to make your payments? '' What kind of company with any kind of morals would say that to a customer? At that point, I personally felt like their goal was to continue to get interest payments from me instead of putting my best interest first and helping me resolve a debt I owe.
