I made a significant purchase using my Best Buy Citi account, 2 years ago. I took advantage of the 0 percent interest financing opportunity for 24 months. I made payments on the card, each month. What I did not realize was that Citi was not applying the payments I was sending in to my promotional balance. They were applying it to other balances. I did n't realize this until I received a finance charge of over {$3100.00}! Obviously, I was shocked by this and immediately called in and they told me if I could pay off the promotional balance ( ~ {$4400.00} ), they would waive the finance charges. I actually paid {$6000.00} to Citi and I had to borrow money from my son in order to do this. I called them to make sure they were going to waive the financing charges after they received the {$6000.00} from me, and they told me that I only had until XX/XX/XXXX to do it. They received the money on XX/XX/XXXX and told me that " there was nothing we can do. '' First of all, their payment processing is deceptive, as I thought I was paying down the balance. Second, they TOLD ME that they would waive the finance charges if I paid them {$4400.00}. I paid {$6000.00}! If I knew they were going to go back on their word, I would n't have paid that much! I would have used the money for other bills. I, in good faith, made the payment and now Citi is charging a XXXX year old widow a huge finance charge. Please compel Citi to honor their word.
