Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
I have a high interest online savings account with Discover Bank. On XX/XX/XXXX, Discover " froze '' my account, denying me access to any account information and more importantly, freezing my funds. I have been trying for over a week to communicate with Discover Bank, to no avail. They have no email address, and when I call, wait times have consistently been greater than two hours. Worse, when on a few occasions I have finally gotten through to a human, I am told that they can not help me. I am then transferred to a dead line, or put back in the 2 hour cue. 

I am in the process of buying a home and it is time sensitive that I have access to printing my account statements, and access to my funds. I have used the app, using biometrics to log on, from my personal cell phone, and still am locked out. 

Discover Bank 's only attempt to reach me has been a mailed letter, again instructing me to call the phone number, that has no answer. My funds have been made unavailable to me, held by this bank, without any explanation or path to resolve the problem.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY
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: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
In XXXX of 2016 Citibank mailed an unrequested credit card to an unsecured mailbox, located at an address I was no longer occupying. This card, which was issued in my name, was stolen and activated by an unknown person. During a period from XXXX to XXXX of 2016, numerous fraudulent charges were made to this card. These charges were added to my credit card balance. I never had possession of this card. 

I was paying off a previous balance on this Citibank account, but had not made any new charges to it for many years. Because I did not to my knowledge have an active card with Citibank, I did not notice the fraudulent charges. When I became aware that the card existed and had been stolen, I immediately informed Citibank of the fraud. The account was frozen. 

The customer service representative at Citibank told me that the charges would be investigated, and that Citibank had policies in place that protected consumers against fraud. Meanwhile, the charges were not removed, with the exception of two items equaling about {$65.00} combined. The interest on the fraudulent charges continued to accumulate. 

I have contacted Citibank repeatedly since I reported the crime, and also mailed a letter to Citibanks credit card fraud investigation department. I have never received a response to my inquiries. Citibank never notified me of a resolution of this case or gave me any information on the purported investigation. Each time I called, the representative only said that the matter was still under investigation. 

Some of the charges were made to out-of-state entities, which means that the identity thief purchased goods or services via the U.S. Postal Service, a parcel delivery service, or over the telephone. For these transactions the unknown person likely used his own contact information. I believe that investigation of the details of the fraudulent charges would show that the charges were not made by me. 

The total sum of fraudulent charges made to the account is {$6600.00}. The interest charged during the period in which the card was active reached approximately {$720.00}, and has continued to accrue since then. I make monthly payments to this account. The fraudulent charges have made it extremely difficult to pay off the balance that I legitimately owe. Also, I have no way of knowing whether I have already paid off this amount. 

Thank you.

Complaint:
My wife and I were flying on an XXXX XXXX plane last XXXX and the flight attendant was pitching a credit card and promised XXXX air miles if we filed an application for the card. I filed an application, but I never received the card. I then began to get e-mails stating that I owed {$99.00} for the card I never received. Then I received e-mails stating more charges. I never received the card. Then, I saw that my credit score went from the low XXXX down to the mid XXXX. That was terrible. I contacted Barclays bank at least four times and they claimed to be investigating the issue. I have still heard nothing from them and now they say I owe over {$350.00}! I have never received the card and my credit score is still destroyed due to lack of payment to Barclays bank. Barclay 's customer service is horrible, and I pray you can help me with this problem. I believe the account is now closed but they have ruined my credit due to their actions.
