      I had received a phone call on 7/2/22 stating that my account was 60 days past due which is in fact not true. The gentlemen told me to call back and hung up on me. I then called and spoke to another gentleman who checked my account confirming I made payments June 15th 2022 and I made a payment on July 2nd 2022 while on the phone with him. I got a email stating my credit has changed from credit karma so I logged in and checked. Comenity bank sent a over 30 day payment flag to the credit bureaus which dropped my credit 100 points. I have not been 30 days late nor did I miss a payment since 2020. I called to address this issue July 10th 2022 with no progress in removing this from my credit scores. This is wrong and will drastically change my life as we are building a house soon for our growing family. I can provide my bank statements if needed. Please help me!

      Comenity Bank had a system outage at the end of June 2022. This was a huge inconvenience. I made a payment online thru my banks "bill pay" in the amount of $100.00 on June 28,2022 - it has not been credited to my account. I then made another payment in the amount of $200.00 on July 5, 2022 which also has not been credited to my account. This is the same way I always pay my credit card bill and it has never been a problem but now all of a sudden it is. It is impossible to get anyone from the USA on the phone; all overseas customer service. I have called and have no resolution. Where did my $300 go?? I am concerned this is going
      to affect my credit score. I have even emailed several times and I received only one response, The customer service is less than satisfactory. This morning I tried calling again & the calls connect but no automated response. What is going on with this credit card company? I want someone to call me and let me know where my payments went. I have confirmation numbers thru my bank. I want my payments credited to my account and I don't want to wait 14 days for a resolution. Totally unacceptable that a customer shoud have to go thru this because you have "system" issues.
