Barclays PLC Credit Card Complaint

Barclays PLC Credit card department,

Other fee New York

I had an - card from -. - converted all their customers from - to Barclays. Two weeks ago, I received an email from Barclays that my payment was approaching and asked me to schedule automatic payments, which I did. I scheduled auto pay to be paid the day before my billing period. When I went to check my account yesterday, it said my payment was part due and I was charged a fee. I called to find out what happened and they told me for autopay, the first payment does n't take place until after 30 days. they never informed me of this. In fact, in the auto pay confirmation email, there was no fine print and no information that stated that the payment would not go through until after 30 days. I have also had a similar problem with - who canceled my autopay after 12 months without informing me then charged me a late fee, reduced my credit line and dinged my credit score. These credit card companies are finding loopholes to scam honest customers out of money by not informing them on their specifics behind auto pay.
