      I purchased a mattress from ******** Firm financed through Vive Financial. The mattress has developed severe sagging, despite proper support and light use (I am the sole sleeper, 130 lbs). This has caused ongoing back pain and affected my health.I reported the issue with full documentation (photos, law tag, proof of support) beginning Feb 2, 2025, and sent follow-ups on Feb 4 and Feb 27, 2025. I escalated again on July 31, 2025, warning that I would file with BBB if unresolved. I also attempted to email ***************************** in August, but the address is inactive (bounced back).Despite 5+ months of documented outreach, Mattress Firm has not resolved this claim or responded.

      I cannot for the life of me get in contact with this company. I’ve called all the phone numbers, to no avail. They all disconnect when I try to move forward with the menu options. I need help! To make matters worse they don’t provide an email address. So here:

      I am writing to request relief on the above-referenced account due to serious financial hardship. Within the past month, I have experienced a combination of challenges, including loss of employment, significant medical expenses, changes in my housing situation, loss of child support income, and, on top of all this, I have become the primary caretaker for my 80-year-old mother.

      These sudden and significant difficulties have placed me in a position where I am no longer able to maintain the required payments on this account. Despite my best efforts to manage my obligations, I cannot meet the current terms without sacrificing basic living expenses.

      Given these circumstances, I respectfully request that you consider discharging or forgiving this debt. If a full discharge is not possible, I ask that you review any hardship, settlement, or alternative relief options that may reduce or eliminate this burden so I can focus on regaining financial stability.

      Please provide a written response confirming your decision so I may keep it for my records. I sincerely appreciate your time, understanding, and consideration of my request during this very difficult period.

      Received a letter from Vive Financial dated June 19, 2025 stating that they need additional information from me to process my application for credit by July 1. I never heard of Vive Financial or tried to open the account so did not contact them to complete the application.
      Then received a letter dated July 3, 2025 saying that there was a recent charge of $9,686.60 through Sleep Number and stated the terms. I did not make this charge.
      I called Vive Financial via phone (************) on July 16, 2025 after I received the letter. I explained to the person I spoke that I did not open this card or make this charge. The person said that this would be passed on to their legal department.
      It is now August 1, 2025. In the meantime I have received a statement dated 7/20/2025 with this charge and fees totalling $10,099.00. I have received no communication from Vive Financial. I tried calling twice today and received an answering machine to leave a message.

      Charged interest and annual fees on account that was to have zero interest and zero annual fees for 12 months. Planned to pay balance of $500 in full by end of promotional period on 8/1. Spoke to representatives several times to be sure of the date to pay off balance. Wanted to pay remaining balance today but after logging into my account saw the deferred interest charge as well as additional interest charge and annual fee charges a few months ago. I feel this due to me getting close to paying off the account and the company wanting to make it difficult for me to do so. We have no problems with our account otherwise and we would appreciate the refund of the interest so the account can be paid off in full. I am prepared to pay off account in full and close the account today. Please contact me to discuss.

      Thank you for contacting Vive Financial on behalf of the consumer.  While we are unable to provide account specific information, please be advised that the promotion that was put on the account at the time the charge was made was 12 month deferred interest, which expired on 7/14/2025 at 5 PM CST. However, we were able to speak to the cardholder today regarding the concern and all has been resolved. If our cardholder has any addition questions, our representatives can be reached at ************.

      My Vive card payment was due on 7/22/25, and I submitted the payment through your website on that same date. Despite this, I was charged a $41 late fee today, and my account has been placed on hold.

      When I contacted customer service, I was told the payment had to be made by 5:00 PM on 7/21/25. This is not reasonable. The payment was made on the due date via your online system. Your office hours should have no bearing on an automated payment system.

      Charging a late fee because a payment was made a few hours after your call center closed—on the actual due date—is arbitrary at best and appears to be a deceptive practice. Unless this issue is resolved promptly, I will be filing complaints with the Wisconsin Department of Consumer Protection and the Office of the Attorney General.

      Please respond with a resolution within 7 business days.

      Business Response

      Date: 07/28/2025

      Thank you for contacting Vive Financial on behalf of the
      consumer.  Due to the private nature of the account, we are unable to
      provide account specific information.  However, the minimum payment must
      be made on the due date before 5 PM CST. If it is received after this time it
      will be considered late, and a late fee will be added to your account. Our cut
      off time does not correspond with our call center hours, it is the cut off time
      for payments to be made. We will waive your recent late fee of $41 as a
      courtesy to your account. If our cardholder has additional questions, our
      representatives can be reached at *************

      Payment plans for around 100 dollars a month but 90 plus dollars is going to finance charges and late fees …. I was diagnosed with cancer and been in treatment so my payments may be meat die to being sick which I have told them and is documented but never not paid ….. so two years of 100 a month payments and my balance is at 3200 dollars so I have paid only late and finance charges and unfortunately can’t keep
      Paying while the balance doesn’t decrease they are not willing to work with me and the account is closed …….two years of payment of 100 dollars for 24 months is 2400 dollars it should be deducted from the total balance

      Thank you for contacting Vive Financial on behalf of the

      provide account specific information.  However, the account was placed on
      a Permanent Hardship Payment Program on 9/30/2024 due to the cardholders
      situation to lower the interest rate to 14% APR. In addition, the cardholder
      has received 13 late fees since the account was opened, to avoid future late
      fees the minimum payment needs to be made by the 1st of each month
      by 5 PM CST. As a courtesy we will waive the most recent $25 late fee.  If
      our cardholder has additional questions, our representatives can be reached at
