Complaint #1425692 submitted on 06/17/2015 relating to First National Bank of Omaha. Complaint relates to Credit card - Application processing delay .

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 17th June 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

On XXXX occasions XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX First Bankcard, XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX charged my account a late fee plus interest and then revolving account interest the following month for payments that were sent via on-line banking and received by First Bankcard on or before the due dates above. I always pay 100 % of the balance due each month. In the first instance for the payment due XX/XX/XXXX, First Bankcard credited my account for the late fee and interest when I provided evidence that the payment was deducted from my on-line checking account on the due date, but not posted to their system until the following business day but they have not credited the interest charged the following month ( statement dated XX/XX/XXXX ) of {$38.00}. More recently, the same set of events occurred on XX/XX/XXXX and involves a {$26.00} late fee, {$71.00} interest in their statement dated XX/XX/XXXX and an additional {$62.00} in interest on their XXXX statement. First Bankcard Customer Service XXXX refused to credit the XXXX fees and interest because they had already done this for me once - without regard to the fact that they obviously have a cash posting problem since this has occurred twice in the last XXXX months. I have written XXXX XXXX complaint letters on XX/XX/XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX outlining in detail the circumstances mentioned above and have not received any response. I communicated ( message reference number XXXX ) with First Bankcard Customer Service on XX/XX/XXXX to find out if they had received my letters. The response was that there were no notes on my account as to the letters or who may have them or if any action was being taken to correct the billing on my account. I have discontinued using the First Bankcard XXXX card and have left a balance of {$190.00} on the account the represents the erroneous late fees and interest mentioned above and have advised them that I will not pay for the fees or for any late fees or interest going forward.
I have used credit cards from various banks for years and have been using on-line banking since the middle XXXX 's and have never had this happen once. This has happened at First Bankcard XXXX in the XXXX months. Probably happening to more people than just me - concerned that they are making money by not posting payments promptly when they are received - and then refusing to credit the late posted payments. In both cases, the payments were posted the next business day following the due date. I actually began scheduling the payment to them XXXX day in advance of the due date since the XX/XX/XXXX incident to provide more time for them to post the payments. The XX/XX/XXXX ( a Friday ) payment was actually scheduled in my on-line baking account to be paid on XX/XX/XXXX ( Thursday ) but was not posted by First Bankcard until XX/XX/XXXX - Monday. It was sent by my bank on XX/XX/XXXX.
