Billing disputes New Jersey

While contacting Barclays to activate my rewards, the IVR stated that I had a payment due. Knowing that I had a payment posted today, I contacted their customer service at -. The first man I spoke to informed me that they had not yet posted my payment and that it would take 2 business days to post. I asked if they would be effective dating the payment and he said no. I asked him if he was sure because they are required post my payment with the effective date as of when they receive my money. He again said no. He said their policy was 2 business days. I told him that they can not continue to charge me or any other customer interest if they already have my money. I asked to speak to a supervisor. After waiting on hold for -, his Supervisor - got on the phone. I asked her the same question, since you received my money today, -/-/16, will you be effective dating my payment. She too said no, that their policy was that it would not be posted for 2 business days. I again said that that is not right. You have my money


days to verify the money was received. I told her I know the money was received by Barclays. I have a mobile confirmation and my bank also confirmed. She tried to say that my bank had not yet sent the money which was not accurate. She said that if I paid it on the Barclay 's website I would have received credit today but since I sent the funds electronically from my bank, it would take 2 business days. I told her that is not fair and they are still obligated to effective date my payment today -/-/16 regardless of when they post it because they had my money today. I have confirmation the money was received by Barclays today -/-/16 and it was not posted to my account. When I called my bank, they said this was not the first complaint that they have had about Barclays. I would like a full audit of my account and an interest credit from Barclays for every payment that they have held my funds for two business days. I would also like interest on the interest that I was overcharged. I would like all prior payments effective dated the day they received my money.
