Applied bank sent me a bill dated April 8 2022 for $76.44 fee and interest for a credit card I neither applied for nor received. Customer service number nor fraud could help me. I was finally switched to applied bank customer service number. They closed the account but said I still owed the money and I had to write and ASK not to be billed or it would be a negative mark on my credit report.Business response

It is 02/03 and no card received. I have called this company several times and have been unsuccessful in making contact with anyone. It will almost be a month since I paid a $89 processing fee to this coming. There is no reason why anything should take this long. No correspondence, nothing. But they took my money immediately.

I made my payment on time 1/15/21 and I was still charged a $38 late fee. This also happened last month but my email was typed incorrectly so I did not receive a receipt. The company is intentionally postponing consumer's payments so that they can be charged late fees.Business response
