Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: I made a reservation for parking my vehicle near airport for vacation through my desktop computer on XXXX I cancelled the reservation later the same day all in accordance with the merchant 's deadlines to do so and was refunded XXXX XXXX when the purchase was for XXXX usd. Per their website they are only allowed to refund XXXX if one is using their app, furthermore they only gave less than 50 % refund. I disputed the charge with Citi Mastercard. The merchant replied, upon initiating the reply, the merchant revoked all XXXX they rendered meaning I received no refund whatsoever now as opposed to a less then 50 % refund of virtual money. I submitted evidence which proves I acted within the merchant 's own refund policy, as seen in attachments, that they are not entitled to refund me XXXX, furthermore that the XXXX were revoked, then all evidence of the transactions and the XXXX was deleted by XXXX to cover up their malicious acts. This proves the merchant defrauded me. Citi closed the dispute in favour of the merchant claiming I did not follow their return policy even though the emails submitted into evidence are proof beyond a reasonable doubt that they were given the very evidence they purport to be absent to accept such a claim. No merchant who intentionally defrauds someone is going to give " valid credit slip or chargeback approval letter from the merchant to prove they agree you are due credit for this charge ''. It is the duty of Citi to protect consumers against such fraud otherwise it enables all merchants to do this to any consumer they wish to exploit, creating a positive feedback loop which encourages the illegal conduct. Citi 's policy in the end is to accept the merchant 's claim no matter what, threaten to destroy my perfect credit score to get me to pay fraudulent charges, and clearly XXXX is aware of such and games the system to exploit consumers in a manner which allows them to never refund anyone ever if they so choose. The dispute process is therefore a formality for show which offers no recourse for victims at all.

Consumer Complaint: I recognize that from time to time credit card companies can review your usage etc. BUT WHY are they allowed to check without your knowledge or consent and reduce your credit limit enormously so you go from a 40 % debt to credit ratio to a 90 % or worse? Why are they allowed to single handedly decide and destroy your credit score, especially when you are below your credit limit and making payments ON TIME. This has happened to me with two issuing companies - Citi and XXXX. I am beyond annoyed and want to know how I, as the consumer, can rectify this practice. Again I would understand if I was delinquent or past due. If I was spending very close to my credit threshold but the fact that I wasn't and they reviewed and CUT MY CREDIT in half especially in the current economic environment is enraging.

Consumer Complaint: The bank sent 10 page letter discussing changes that will be made to account. It is full of acronyms and XXXX. I asked rep to simplify the letter but they were unaware of what I was talking about. Shouldnt banks communicate in simple terms and be brief? Ten pages is way too much for normal customers to digest!

Issue: Opening an account

Subissue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I opened a CitiBusiness Streamlined Business Checking account and money market savings account. The account came with a promo offer that would be satisfied if I deposited {$50000.00} within 30 days ( I did so on XX/XX/XXXX ), maintained that balance for 60 consecutive days ( I did, withdrawing only after XX/XX/XXXX ). I also would like to note that I deposited and held the money in the money market savings account, and the terms explicitly allow for this. The bonus of {$1000.00} was due XX/XX/XXXX, due to the language " The Cash Bonus for which you qualify will be credited to your Citibank business checking account within 90 days from the end of the month in which you complete al Offer requirements. '' However : It was not credited. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Citi over live chat, who directed me to phone support, who insisted on a bonus code which was not printed on my offer. I then contacted my business banker at the branch, who did not reply. Today XX/XX/XXXX I tried calling phone support again, was told they can not help me, and was given a number to the branch that did not pick up. At this stage, I no longer have confidence Citi is interested in fulfilling their side of this offer - paying out the {$1000.00} bonus - and need to escalate the matter via a CFPB complaint.

Consumer Complaint: This is related to my efforts to close my Citibank Visa account. I previously reported that the company will not close my account because they claim they are not able to verify me online. They refused to provide an alternative method to close the account ( e.g. by signed written request sent by post ). Now I find that the company has increased my credit limit " as requested ''. I made no such request. Moreover, since they have locked my account and have refused to close it because of their claimed inability to verify me, it would seem impossible for me to make such a request. I suspect that this is an abusive retaliation from Citibank Visa 's fraud department for being a " difficult customer. '' Increasing my credit lmiit is potentially damaging to my credit score and therefore harms me materially. This appears to me to be a violation of 12 U.S.C. 5531 ( d ) since it takes " unreasonable advantage '' of my " inability of the consumer to protect the interests of the consumer in selecting or using a consumer financial product or service. ''

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: Third time making this complaint because Citi executive response team refuse to do their job. They like to lie and keep closing my case without actually doing their job. Which is completely fine because I will keep making cases and I will keep calling and I will keep reaching out to whoever till I get my money! Citi bank still has not called XXXX but decided to close my case with no resolution then when I recalled on XX/XX/XXXX the lady re opened my case and told me Citi would call me and do a three-way conference call with XXXX to verify the check the citi refuses to give me,. NEVER got a call but yet again they close the case with no resolution, and still keeping my money.. so I took it upon myself to do Citi bank employees job and I called XXXX and the representative agreed to stay on the line while I call Citi response team phone number ( XXXX ) XXXX! the lady who answered the phone attempted to get a hold of the person that was handling my case but of course she wasnt available.. So like I said yall can keep closing the case all you want but until I get my money, Im going to keep calling and Im going to keep making cases! Do your job and this could of been settled MONTHS AGO! But instead your attempting to keep my money simply because your too lazy to call and verify a check that HAS CLEARED TO CITI BANK SINCE XX/XX/XXXX! Horrible customer service from everyone involved! XXXX is probably the worst employee and worst person to have in a department thats supposed to be for investigations. She wont even call XXXX to verify probably because she does not want to be wrong! shes no help shes useless and shes purposely avoiding calling XXXX to verify the check! Someone who has a brain and is willing to help needs to take over. Im not letting Citi bank get away with stealing XXXX dollars from me that I worked hard for simply because XXXX refuses to do the job she gets paid to do. I understand your company is doing layoffs and you guys are losing money, but that doesnt mean be spiteful to the people that were your customers.

Consumer Complaint: Macy's/Citibank , N.A . Account number : XXXX Age of account : 8 years and 3 months Attention : Macy 's or whom it may concern, I am writing about the above account and why is it still on my credit report after all these years and paid. I an requesting that Macy 's remove this negative, paid information from my credit report as an act of " goodwill '' because this account has been paid.This is hurting me, my life, my credit history and score. Truthfully, this is unfair because I paid what was asked and owed, but you don't care. So, I'm taking the initiative to write a review on Macy 's to corporate and let your collection practices and your business become exposed and damaged. It would help me immensely if you could make a goodwill adjustment to remove this from my credit report. Thanks and I hope my request is approved.
