Complaint:
I, the consumer in this action, submitted a dispute, regarding XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX falsely furnishing an account to numerous consumer reporting agencies. This was never a loan, I asked for proof of this being a loan and money being dispersed from XXXXXXXX XXXX to myself, the consumer. Also, since this was not a loan, how are they reporting late payments? First, pursuant to 12 CFR 1431, banks, which XXXX is claiming to be, can not loan money because they are the borrowers. Second, XXXX has never given me any money, they fraudulently made it look like they let me borrow my OWN money and pay them back. This is absolutely illegal and fraud.

On XXXX, XXXX I discovered, my Citizens Bank check issued to XXXX XXXX for {$200.00} was cashed by the Bank for {$14000.00}!

The fraud was so obvious, that people from the Bank assured us, that we'll get our money back within XXXX. Next day we contacted Police, XXXX came to our place on XX/XX/XXXX & filed a report & police inspector had been assign to handle our case within a week. 
Since then a banker from local brunch faxed all our information & documentation to The Citizens Bank Fraud Department 5 times! We come to the brunch on a regular bases & every time he sends another package of the same documents & every time we get the same answer, that Fraud Department does not have our records?! So we start the same procedure with the help of the same banker & it's endless.... We need the money, it's so outrageously unbelievable the way the Bank treating us & we are good elderly customers of 30 years .... I hope someone is willing to help us, we do not know, what else could be done to make very nice mannered employees to do the job, not just to say how sorry they are ....
