Overly Aggressive Fraud Rules Lock Paid-Off Accounts with No Human Override Path
Making a payment from a different linked bank account triggered an indefinite fraud restriction on a fully paid-off credit card account, with the institution repeatedly claiming they never received the bank statement sent to resolve it. The consumer's account remains restricted despite owing nothing and providing verification multiple times. The combination of overly broad fraud triggers and no functional human escalation path creates a permanently locked account situation.
