If I was recently let go from a company, what are my options for getting back reimbursement for credit card charges?
I have returned all assets, and transfered all accounts to them. However they were using my credit card for services such as overnight shipping and software licenses. They did not transfer these and kept using them. I finally had to change my credit card numbers. I am now owed $25k but they are not reimbursing my expense. They don’t answer my calls or emails. The one time I did get through, they said they were going for authorization.

Since you have been let go by your former employer you should have been immediately reimbursed all that you are entitled to for credit card charges on your personal credit card upon exit.
I suggest that you write the former employer a demand letter demanding payment of what is owed you with enclosed backup documentation by a set date. Keep a copy of the letter for future use and need.
If the due date for payment comes and goes without you getting paid what you are entitled to, your options are to consult with a labor law attorney and/or a representative with your local department of labor to discuss what your legal recourse is.
