I am a victim of identity theft. I have filed reports for identity theft and have even notified the 3 consumer reporting agencies over 3 months ago and nothing has happened. They have not removed anything nor have they mailed me anything. Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with MAXIMUM accuracy. I have never opened any of the accounts or the inquiries that have included in my reports and they should be removed ASAP.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: WA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Savings account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the seemingly illegal action taken by CITI bank against my savings account. On XX/XX/2023, my account was blocked without proper explanation, and I received an email from CITI informing me that my account would automatically close within 60 days, as they claim that I have violated the terms of my account per the client manual. 
However, I strongly disagree with this claim. My account was opened on XX/XX/2023, and I have not violated any terms of the account. In fact, I even spoke with a CITI bank customer service agent just XXXX day prior to the account closure and was not made aware of any issues with my account. 
I have attempted to find out about the reason for the CITIs action and resolve this issue with CITI bank, but have been met with significant resistance. Despite being passed around to numerous departments, I was only able to reach the Account Take Over ( ATO ) department, which refused to provide me with any meaningful assistance. They repeatedly stated that there is a mandatory wait time of up to 60 days, during which time I would be unable to access my funds. They also refused to provide me with a reference or case number, despite my repeated requests as well as they refused to connect me to any higher management level / department where may be able to investigate it sooner.

As my account contains {$140000.00} in funds, I can not accept waiting for two months without access. Therefore, I am ungently disputing CITI bank 's decision to block my account without providing me with a clear reason, and then forcing me to wait for a period of 60 days without access to my funds. I believe that this action is unfair and unjustified, and I am seeking a resolution to this matter as soon as possible. 

Thank you
