Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: VA
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 XX/XX/2018 I received a call from an English speaking woman from Sears Mastercard fraud unit. She stated that suspicious activity was noticed and asked did I make charges in the amount of {$850.00} in Massachusetts at a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and at a donut shop. I told her I live in XXXX XXXX and have never been to Massachusetts and never made the charges to my account. She said she would remove the charges and reissue me a new credit card and my account would not be charged. Today, XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter stating they had received a receipt and that they were rebilling my account and closing out their case. I signed the letter stating I did not make the charges and faxed back to them. I have talked to them several time on phone and I do not get anyone who speak good English. I did not make the charges and the receipt the store sent does not have my signature or name or anything just the last four digits of the card. Sears Fraud Unit is giving me the run around and I do not feel they have investigated. They have just rebilled me. What do I do next. I do not think they are doing this legally and I always pay my bills on time. I have always paid my Sears out in one or two months. If I had made a purchase I would have paid for it. It looks like someone purchased 3 gift cards and how can someone use a credit number and no card at a donut shop. They have been very rude on the phone and there is a great communication problem. I believe a new company must be taking over Sears accounts because this has not happened to me before. Do I contact Attorney General, get a lawyer and start a class action suit? I do not believe they are going by the law. It seems Sears is closing and they must be selling all their accounts to a foreign company. They do not understand English and many have been inpatient and rude and they don't seem to know what is going on.

Sub-issue: Problem accessing account

Complaint:
After the federal government past the stimulus bill making funds available for small business owners, I contacted Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo instructed me that I had to wait until their information appeared on their website before I could apply. I called twice and spoke to two separate individuals regarding the process. I have been waiting for the application process to appear on their website. It never did. This morning, Wells Fargos website said they were not accepting any more applications. I called and they stated the application process was closed. So there must have Process other than what was stated by their representatives. Again, no information on how to apply appeared on their website. I am a customer of Wells Fargo and even though I can apply to other institutions who are still have the process open, they will not allow you to. They are only taking applications from their customers. Which means I have been left out of the process by my bank. I believe that it was unfair practice and the information was not clear and understandable. And there are many other in my situation, who are not able to apply. Upon contacting Wells FargoI was told I was out of luck.
