What is the name of your state? MA
A few years back I opened an account with Newport News a clothing catalog through FCNB(First Consumers National Bank) I was terribly unhappy with the cards services and even more so with the Customer service so I cancelled the card with a balance on it of $400.00 - FCNB declared bankruptcy about a year ago (which I was not aware of until last night). A new company now collects for this account - Card processing center in Old Bethpage NY - I have noticed that no matter when I send my payment in it is always posted late and my account is charged late fees in the amount of $35.00 the balance seems to keep going up and up while I still pay - I now have a $750.00 balance on a card I have not used in years.
I have tried contacting the bank - there is only an automated voicemail that states if you have a problem send a letter in the mail - As if anyone would respond. While trying to research this bank - I found several sites with people posting the exact situation as I have. And no one knows what to do about it.
People have mentioned a class action suit - but no one has acted on it
Do I continue to pay for a card that keep accruing late fees? and other bogus charges?? What do I do ?- I have already been paying for a couple of years and the balance just increases.
