Consumer complaint received 2019-09-13
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: WA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I placed an order on XXXX XXXX 'XXXX website. They were having computer difficulties at the time, and I did not see my order go through. I was on the phone with a representative from XXXX, and we placed the order again. When I looked at my credit card statement, both orders where almost immediately charged to my statement. XXXX was incorrect ( wrong, charge, wrong amount of product ). I asked XXXX to remove the incorrect order, which they did the next day, after resolving their computer errors. They also issued me a credit, which they said would go through on XX/XX/XXXX ( because of the holiday ). 
They provided an incident number for me. 
I called them back in a week when the credit did not show up on my account. They said the credit had gone through on the XXXX, and might need a little more time to show up on my statement. I waited another week, and called XXXX again. XXXX   assured my the credit had been processed by them on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I tried to call Citi Bank. They have no phone numbers on their website but I tried to follow the online instructions for disputes. Since they were still listing the {$1200.00} charge as pending, I was not able to file a dispute. I initiated a " chat '' on line, and " XXXX '' said I had to wait XXXX days. 
How does a credit card company charge a card immediately, but it takes them XXXX days to credit an account? I believe the Citi 's game is to leave a big charge ( which the consumer knows has already been credited ) on an account. That way Citi can charge late fees and interest even though they have already been issued the credit.

Complaint:
My Apple credit card and savings account were locked and restricted by Goldman Sachs on XX/XX/2023. I have called numerous times to try to resolve the issue and each person I talk to only tells me that my account is under review and that someone would be reaching out to me to verify my information. It has been well over a week since this issue began and I have not been given an update and I have no access to my accounts and can not withdraw from my own savings. Customer service is less than helpful and my account is seemingly locked for no reason.

Complaint:
THIS IS WITH FTC On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. 
I further remind you that, as in XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX - XXXX. Court, ( XXXX California XXXX ) ; you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of discharged accounts. 
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or another instrument bearing my signature. 
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt. 
I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in XXXX XXXX Trans Union Corp., XXXX. XXXX ( C.D.Cal. XXXX. 
XXXX, XXXX ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.
