Full Complaint:
I made a purchase via XXXX from seller XXXX XXXX, and the seller contacted me and told me the package was removed from the locker and told me they would issue a refund. That refund appeared on my account after I filed a fraud dispute for never receiving the package. Last week USAA, the bank knowing this, still went to XXXX and forced a payment from them, stole the payment, then told me they will reverse the credit because they determined it was an authorized charge. So why did they go back to XXXX and steal the money like it was not authorized and ignore the refund from the seller? They stole money and reversed my credit and told me that I have to pay it back on XX/XX/XXXX. Please make the bank give the money back to XXXX because that was fraudulent if they decided it was not fraud.

Date of Complaint: December 28, 2018

Company Official Name: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION

State: PA

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-Product: General-purpose credit card or charge card

Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-Issue: Charged too much interest

Full Complaint:
My understanding of the credit card act in 2010 is that any payment made above the minimum should be allocated to the highest interest rate on the account. Ive been told by employees that they can allocate my payment however they want. I was also told they allocate my payment to the lower interest rate first.

My balance is divided into 2 portions, one is purchases being charged at 21-25 %. The other is a balance transfer being charged at 0 %. So in this situation my minimum payment was {0.00}. I paid over {00.00} this was to not only cover the minimum But to cover some purchases. However I was still charged interest and given not only conflicting information but information that is illegal.
