Dear ****** ******,
We are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #********. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.Our records indicate that, on November 30, 2024, an application with your information was initiated for a WebBank-issued Avant Credit Card via the Experian Platform. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
Avant has received your complaint in which you stated that you have notified our company of issues on your credit report. You indicated that you do not have a card with us, nor do you have knowledge of this card. You said that you have asked for this to be removed and a cease and desist order on collection efforts. You have also reached out because one of your ***** told you that there were numerous charges for this card for payments, and you had no idea what it was. You said you are continuously getting the runaround and subsequently hung up on after being placed on hold.
Our records indicate that on March 28, 2025, we received an indirect credit reporting dispute via e-OSCAR, an automated system between Avant and the Credit Bureaus. The dispute claimed that the account was opened fraudulently and did not belong to you. Due to this claim, the account was forwarded to our **************** for further review and investigation. Please be aware that our records show that the last time any contact was made to our customer support team was on March 20, 2025, and this was regarding a payment that was made on the account. We found no further evidence of any other contact being made to our customer support team.
Please be advised that we were able to locate an account in your name, Customer ID #***********. It is important to note that the application in question has been approved, and a credit card has been issued. An inquiry may have been initiated by WebBank and Avant into your credit profile. Inquiries can affect your credit score and are visible to third parties viewing your credit report.
The fraud team investigating this account has concluded that there is not sufficient evidence to support that this application was submitted falsely, and we are unable to remove the inquiry and tradeline at this time. Without additional supporting evidence, this case will remain closed. This was also communicated to you via a letter correspondence, which was sent to the following address: *******************************************. In order to reopen the case, we recommend taking the following steps:
1. Print and complete the attached Identity Theft Victims Complaint and Affidavit (Affidavit). The Affidavit should explicitly mention Avant. The Affidavit (item 22 on page H-6) should be witnessed by a Notary Public. In addition to the completed Affidavit, we request that you also file a Law Enforcement Report, described in item 20 on page H-5 of the Affidavit, or an IC3 referral form. The law enforcement Report or IC3 referral form should explicitly reference Avant. Filing a false Law Enforcement Report may result in criminal prosecution with penalties up to a felony conviction.
2. Please deliver the Affidavit, Law Enforcement Report or IC3 referral form and any other supporting evidence of identity theft you may have, to Avant via email, fax or mail.

Upon receipt of documents in good standing as outlined above, Avant will begin the process of notifying the appropriate credit bureau(s) to remove the credit inquiry and associated credit history from your credit report. Without the completed and notarized Affidavit and Law Enforcement Report/IC3 referral form filed in connection with the identity theft claim, Avant does not have sufficient evidence to support a claim of identity theft and will not be able to remove the inquiry and tradeline.The IC3 referral form stands for ******************************** This is a governmental online service administered by the *** that allows an individual who believes they are a victim of identity theft to file an online complaint. As internet crime complaints are reported online, the data is compiled.

The IC3 referral form can be filed and used in place of the Law Enforcement Report. The IC3 referral form can be found at *******************************. Please contact us at 1-855-AVANTCARD and reference the Customer ID above with any additional questions or concerns.
As our investigation did not discover sufficient evidence to support the identity theft claim, and sufficient supporting evidence has not been submitted, collection efforts may continue. Nevertheless, as requested, we have limited communications on your account as of June 3, 2025.

Dear **** *****,
We are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #*******. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.
Our records indicate that on April 29, 2023, you were approved for a WebBank-issued AvantCard via the CreditKarma Platform. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
According to your Better Business Bureau complaint, you requested to close your Avant card in June 2024 and were assured that the account closure had been completed. However, you have continued to receive monthly charges for unknown reasons, which is concerning since the card was paid in full. You claim to have made numerous attempts to contact Avant customer support and were repeatedly assured that the issue was resolved. It has been almost a year since these charges began, despite the account being closed. You are now asked to pay charges totaling $*****. You are requesting that Avant acknowledge that they made an error, make a billing adjustment, and provide an update to your credit report.
The terms of your AvantCard were clearly and fully disclosed on Avant's website during the inquiry process and prominently displayed on your Cardmember Agreement prior to signing electronically. You accepted a $500.00 credit limit with a variable APR of *****% and a $ 0.00 Annual Membership Fee (AMF). Your Cardmember Agreement, which serves as your contract and details the terms and conditions of your account, was provided in an email titled "Welcome to Your AvantCard" sent on August 30, 2023.
As outlined in the Cardmember Agreement, you accepted the terms of this agreement by using your card and not canceling your account within 30 days after the card was sent. Your Cardmember Agreement further outlines that Avant may change the rates, fees, and terms of your Agreement, and Avant may add or delete any term to your Agreement.
Please be advised that Avant delivered your periodic statements 21 days before the payment due date to the email address on file. These statements included the Current Period Minimum Payment, Total Minimum Payment Due, Past Due Amount, and the Payment Due Date. Avant can confirm that from September 25, 2023, to May 26, 2025, your monthly billing statements were available for download on your Customer Dashboard, and emails titled "Your AvantCard Online Statement is Now Available" were sent to the email address on file.

However, if you reject the new terms, your account will be closed.
On April 15, 2025, you contacted Avant Customer because you indicated that you had paid your account a year ago and advised Avant Customer Support to close your account. You authorized a third party to speak on your behalf. The third party requested a refund for December, September 2024, February, March, and April 2025, totaling $40.06, because the payments were unauthorized from their bank account. The agent proceeded to close your account, and the third party asked to speak to a supervisor. A supervisor was unavailable and advised that a call back would be scheduled. The third party stated not to close the account yet and said they would wait for a call back.
Your refund request of $40.06 was denied on April 16, 2025, due to your enrollment in autopay on March 17, 2024. You authorized Avant to deduct your payment for the Total Minimum Payment due on the 19th of each month.

The billing statement for your account was generated and made available for review on April 25, 2025. As outlined in this statement, you had a statement balance of $8.99 and a Total Minimum Payment of $8.99.
You contacted Avant customer support again on April 27, 2025; you authorized the third party to speak on your behalf. The third party requested that the account be closed. The agent attempted to close the account by reading the disclosures regarding any remaining balance. The third party stopped the agent because the disclosure did not apply to them, and they do not have a remaining balance. A supervisor was requested, and the call was transferred. The third party told the supervisor that the charges did apply to them because the account was paid in full last August. The third party further mentioned they had seen monthly charges on the bank account that were not authorized. The supervisor indicated that the account was set up on Autopay, and an email was sent out regarding the monthly fee in November. The supervisor informed the third party that the account would be escalated regarding the previous request to close their account in August. Our records indicate that your account has been closed as of May 7, 2025.

I am rejecting this response because:response stated the load was rejected this time because of an incomplete application. The incomplete application which was not stated at the time, but according a phone conversation, was using the same email address used with another active loan. The fix, according to the phone conversation was to use another email address which I do have, but decided not to pursue the loan any further. Having said this, I still do not wish to continue this issue, but would like it to be recorded as public record.

Dear ******* Hose,
We are in receipt of your rebuttal with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #********.You have rejected our response claiming that our response stated that the loan was rejected this time because of an incomplete application. You cited that the incomplete application, which was not stated at the time, but according to a phone conversation, you were using the same email address used with another active loan. You further claimed that the fix to this according to this said conversation was to use another email address, which you do have, but decided not to pursue the loan any further. You mentioned that you do not wish to continue this issue, but would like it to be recorded as public record.
After reviewing all relevant communications, we found no evidence which suggested that you were denied credit due to an incomplete application. On May 24, 2025, you inquired about your denial letter, noting that you had not completed the application because you wished to use a different email address. However, the agent believed you were alleging that the application had been submitted fraudulently. You clarified that you were not alleging fraud and reiterated your concerns. The specialist then informed you that we are unable to provide you with credit at this time; however, they do not have access to the reasoning behind this decision. You subsequently indicated that you would escalate this issue to the Better Business Bureau, as the specialist appeared not to understand your concerns.We sincerely apologize that they were not of better assistance to you.
Nonetheless, as previously advised, all applications for ******* products are considered in accordance with WebBanks established credit policy. Based on the information you were able to provide at the time, it was determined that you did not qualify for a WebBank product.
Our records indicate that the application which was done on May 13, 2025, was declined due to the following reason:

Dear Noura Jasmine ************************ are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Complaint ID #********. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.
In your complaint, you stated that you believe your account contains inaccurate information. This is misleading and misrepresents your credit history. You are requesting the removal of the account from your ********************** report.
Our records indicate that on September 9, 2021 you were approved for a WebBank-issued AvantCard via the Credit Karma Platform. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
The terms of your AvantCard were clearly and fully disclosed on Avant's website during the inquiry process and prominently displayed on your Cardmember Agreement prior to signing electronically. On September 9, 2021, your credit card was mailed to the mailing address on file. You accepted a $300.00 credit limit with a variable APR of *****% and a $59.00 Annual Membership Fee (AMF).
Your Cardmember Agreement, which serves as your contract and details the terms and conditions of your account, was provided in an email titled "Welcome to your AvantCard" sent on September 11, 2021. As outlined in the aforementioned Cardmember Agreement, you accepted the terms of this agreement by using your card and not canceling your account within 30 days after the card was sent.
You were notified that your monthly billing statement was available on your customer dashboard on or around the 5th of each month between October 7, 2021, and April 7, 2025. These statements included your Total Minimum Payment Due amount, Past Due amount, and the Payment Due Date. The last successful payment Avant received towards your account was a payment of $73.48 on October 1, 2024, despite having additional payments due. As a result, your account was charged off on April 30, 2025, with a remaining balance of $1,085.85. Charged-off accounts do not accrue interest or assess any fees. Your account will be reported to the credit bureaus as charged off until the balance is zero. Any payments made will reduce the amount reported to the credit bureaus.
Per the "Credit Reporting and Monitoring" section of your Cardmember Agreement, Avant reserves the right to report information about your account to the ********************** bureaus.

Avant may also obtain credit reports on you on an ongoing basis until this note is paid in full. Avant is not required to delete such information and is permitted to use such information for legitimate business purposes, such as fulfilling our legal and compliance obligations.
As implemented by Regulation V, the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) does not require WebBank or Avant to provide account holders with the option to opt out of credit reporting. An entity that chooses to furnish information to any consumer reporting agency is prohibited from reporting information if it has a reasonable cause to believe the information is inaccurate. Avant believes the information it reported to the credit reporting agencies regarding your account is accurate and consistent with the FCRA/Regulation V's requirements. Avant has complied with the FCRA/Regulation V dispute requirements, investigated your account, and found that Avant provided the necessary disclosures before your execution of their Cardmember Agreement.
Avant's investigation into this matter has concluded that all information reported to the credit bureaus on behalf of your account is accurate. Their account is correctly reported as charged off. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires Avant to report fairly and accurately. Avant does not remove reporting when they have verified the information is accurate. Avant advises you to contact the individual bureaus, **********, Experian, and Equifax, for more information about how the information in your credit reports impacts their credit score.
We have thoroughly reviewed all relevant communication regarding your account and can confirm that it was handled according to company policy. We are unable to grant your request to remove inaccurate information or any previous late reporting.
We trust this explanation resolves this matter. At Avant, we go to great lengths to ensure a transparent and customer-focused experience.

I recently paid off my loan with Avant. I paid ******** to finish paying off my loan and overpaid ******. I contacted Avant (May 6th) to see when I would get my refund for my overpayment back and they told me it would take 5-10 business days. I waited well over the 10 business days and contacted them again (May 19th around 12pm EST) to see what was going on with my refund and they told me to call back again later in the day to make sure the refund was going through. I contacted them later that day and they told me the refund would be on my account the next day. Checked my account the next day and still nonrefundable so I contacted them again and they said it was just processed today to get deposited in my account( Even though I was told this before already) and to check my account the next day. Don't know what to do now as it seems they are just yanking my chain as I still wait to get my overpayment back.Business Response

Dear ******* ****,
We are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #********. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.
Our records indicate that you were approved for a WebBank-issued installment loan via EvenFinancial Platform on August 24, 2024. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
In your Better Business Bureau (BBB) complaint, you stated that you recently paid off your loan with Avant, making a total payment of $10,310.00. On May 6, 2025, you contacted Avant to inquire about an overpayment of $910.90 that had been made on your account. You were informed that the refund processing time would be five to ten business days. You followed up on May 19, 2025, to check the status of your refund and were advised to follow up later that day to ensure the funds were deposited. When you reached out to Avant support again on the same day, you were told that the refund would be in your account the next day. You did not receive the refund as expected, and contacted Avant customer support once more. This time, you were informed that the refund had just been processed that day. Due to the inconsistent information provided, you are now requesting a billing adjustment by asking for the overpayment of $908.99.
On May 2, 2025, you contacted Avant customer support and stated that ********************** would be receiving a payment of around $10,000.00 toward your loan.. The agent confirmed that the last payment that was posted to your account was May 1, 2025, of $459.08. You asked the agent if you would be able to receive funds back since the loan would be paid in full. The agent advised you that if there was an overpayment, it would be refunded to you.
On May 5, 2025, an email titled "Payment Posted" was sent to your email address, ********************** confirming that Avant received a payment of $10,310.00 with an effective date of May 2, 2025. The same day, you contacted Avant customer support to inquire about an overpayment. The agent confirmed that there was an overpayment of $908.90. The agent told you that the full amount would be automatically refunded to the bank account on file within five to ten business days.
On May 20, 2025, you contacted customer support to follow up on your overpayment of $908.90. The agent confirmed that the overpayment of $908.90, still within the processing time to receive your refund. The agent then informed you that you would receive the refund the same day, and if you did not, to call back. You called Avant customer support back later that day because you were advised that the funds would be deposited into your bank account. The agent indicated that the overpayment of $908.90 would be deposited on May 21, 2025, into your bank account on file. Please note that the deposit date that you were provided was incorrect, and this has been escalated to Avant management to issue coaching to the agent involved. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
On May 21, 2025, you contacted Avant customer support because you did not receive your overpayment. The agent informed you that the refund was initiated and to check your bank account again by the end of the day.
Based on our review, your overpayment of $908.90 was deposited into your bank account ending in *9041 on May 22, 2025. If you have not received the funds, we advise you to contact your financial institution.
We trust this explanation resolves this matter. At Avant, we go to great lengths to ensure a transparent and customer-focused experience.

Contacted customer service numerous times for an average hold time/ assistance time of up to 45 minutes to an hour on 05/19/2025. Requested a supervisor to review current transactions on the account that was just opened in 04/2025. The balance at the end of the first statement balance was $ ******; statement closed on 04/17/2025. Since that time there have been no additional charges ( based on their review ) but $ ****** in payments w/ a pending payment of $ *****. All of the payments and current transactions have been confirmed with Avant. The problem is that NONE of the payments are reflected in the current balance owed which by the statement should only be $ ******. On my fourth and last phone call I was told that they are unable to see any transactions ( even though they could see the payments ) and to wait 3 days for the new statement to be cut.. My concern is the balance that is owed and what charges make that up to ensure that it is accurate.Business Response

Dear **** ******,
We are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #********. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.Our records indicate that, on March 20, 2025, you were approved for a WebBank-issued Avant Credit Card via the Experian Platform. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
Avant has received your complaint in which you stated that you spent approximately an hour on the phone with our customer support team in order to get assistance on May 19, 2025. You explained that the balance at the end of the first statement was $ ******, and since that time, there have been no additional charges. You said that payments were made, but none of the payments are reflected in the current balance owed. You went on to say that on your last phone call, you were told that we are unable to see any transactions and were advised to wait three days for the new statement. You expressed concerns regarding the balance owed and what charges make it up to ensure that it is accurate.
Upon receipt of your Better Business Bureau complaint, a thorough review of your account was conducted. Our records indicate that your statement dated April 17, 2025, reflected a balance of $******. On May 19, 2025, you reached out to our support team for clarification regarding the account balance, as there appeared to be some discrepancies. At that time, our specialists were unable to confirm specific details related to your account since your May 2025 statement was not yet accessible for review. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. It is essential to understand that a customer's statement is typically made available within two calendar days following the statement date.
Please be informed that your statement dated May 17, 2025, is now available for your review. For your convenience, we have included a copy of this statement with our response. A review of this statement reveals that despite your ongoing payments, several transactions continued to occur after the generation of your April 17, 2025, statement, which would have contributed to an increase in your balance. During our investigation, we also confirmed that all payments made were applied to your account, and your balance is accurately represented. As of May 29, 2025, your balance stands at $700.00.
Additionally, you are able to view your Transaction History via your Customer Dashboard, which is available 24 hours a day and is accessible by logging into your account at ******************************.

I applied for a credit card, was told it would be in within 5-7 business days. It never came in, I called was told I had to wait a max of 15 days. I called again when that time was up no card. Was then told they issued a new card, I waited another 15 days for a card that to this day still hasn't came in, and has a fee on it. When I call to talk to someone they just keep saying they can't help or transfer me to a supervisor and that I would have to wait another 15 days. Horrible service.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: There clearly is something wrong with the business. They have confirmed my old address and my new address on the file and both they sent cards to both i still have access to being able to get the mail from. Both have still not removed any cards due to this matter. Why would I ask for another card to be sent out when I am still waiting on the first 2 and they can't make an exception to make sure this card is getting in my hand or a way to track it. The cards are clearly not making it to me or else they would have been activated. Not being able to get a card in my hand after being informed it's mailed is a high issue.

Dear ******* *********,
We are in receipt of your complaint with the Better Business Bureau Complaint ID #********. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your customer experience. At **********************, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to all of our customers and take all feedback seriously.Our records indicate that, on January 27, 2025, you were approved for a WebBank-issued Installment Loan via the Credit Karma Platform. WebBank is the credit issuer for the Avant platform, where Avant operates as the administrator and servicer of the program.
Avant has received your complaint in which you stated that on May 7, 2025, you mailed a payoff check in the amount of $27,345.07 for your loan. However, no one can tell you if the check has been received, despite a copy of the check being sent. You are seeking assistance regarding this.
According to our records, on April 22, 2025, you agreed to pay off your loan through Avant as the servicer for your account. You were informed that your payoff quote is $27,345.07, and you agreed to make a paper check payment on May 1, 2025.
On May 7, 2025, you emailed our customer support team letting us know that you had sent the payoff amount. That same day, you were advised that it may take up to three business days from the date we receive your payment for it to reflect on your account. You were also told to allow more time for your payment to reach us. Please be aware that generally, it takes no more than 14 business days for a check to be processed from the send date.
Subsequent contact was made with us via email between May 13, 2025, and May 15, 2025, concerning the unapplied check. On May 15, 2025, you were informed that we were reviewing your account and that we would contact you. Furthermore, when you contacted our phone customer support team, an escalation was done on your behalf concerning the unapplied check. Please be informed that our customer support team made every effort to assist you by escalating your account to the appropriate department for investigations to be done.
On May 16, 2025, we received a check in the amount of $27,345.07, which was successfully posted to your account with an effective date of May 15, 2025. You were then advised of this via an email titled "ATTENTION: Payment Posted - Avant."
Please be advised that by scheduling an official payoff, interest accrual for your loan will be frozen for a period of ten (10) days. If no payoff is scheduled, the quote will be invalidated, and interest accrual will continue. Accordingly, on May 16, 2025, your account had a balance of $400.10, and you were quoted this payoff amount. A payment for this amount was received on May 19, 2025.
Our records indicate that your loan has been paid in full. You will receive a payoff confirmation email within 14 days of the final payment date.
