Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: MA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
OnXX/XX/XXXX, I opened a Money Market Checking Account with Citizens Bank ( Citizens Bank is a brand name of XXXX XXXX XXXX ( NMLS ID # XXXX ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( NMLS ID # XXXX ). Citizens Bank corporate headquarters : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX RI XXXX  ) The account was opened over the phone by a rep who sold me the account while assisting me with online access to another regular checking account. I gave my routing number and account number for a savings account with XXXX XXXX   to transfer {$25000.00} to this new money market account.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Citizens saying that they had placed a hold on the funds for 90 business days because of some information on the check not matching. I never wrote a check! The check was generated by Citizens system and the money was withdrawn from my XXXX XXXX  account. I have attached a copy of the check that was posted to my XXXX XXXX account.

This is as good as robbery because they won't let me close the account or release the funds for 90 days! And the money has already been released from my XXXX XXXX   account.

I have called, visited their branch and have received no information on why the hold was placed and what can be done to remove it. They asked me to give the information for someone from XXXX and I gave that to them, but still no response.

This is a bank that can not seem manage a simple electronic transfer in this day and age and on top of that has terrible customer service experience in not being able to share any details on why a hold has been placed on funds ; not to mention the legality of placing a hold on the funds for 90 days!!

My mortgage with XXXX XXXX was transferred to BSI Financial Services. BSI 's website has no email for customer service.

I have been trying for several days to get in touch with them and it is impossible to speak to anyone to make my mortgage payment. In searching online, this company has disregarded people 's attempts to contact them to the point of penalties and foreclosure. There are nothing but complaints for this company. I have already contacted XXXX XXXX to tell them to never sell off a debt to this company again.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Struggling to pay your bill
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't work with you while you're going through financial hardship

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020 I called Kroger XXXX, XXXX, XXXX credit card company and requested to have my credit card deferred. At that time, I was told my card would be deferred for 3 months with no interest or fees. 

I received my first bill after my request was made and I was surprised to find an interest charge for {$23.00} had been applied on my statement. Shortly thereafter I phoned the company and spoke with XXXX after explaining I was transferred to the supervisor XXXX who then told me I would be receiving a call from XXXX ID # XXXX. I received the call on Tuesday XX/XX/2020. She told me that her company had a different definition for deferring credit cards. Please tell me sir how can a company create their own definition for a word to suit the company? 

I understand the difference is the following : DEFERMENT vs. FORBEARANCE Credit card deferment describes a situation where you are able to skip your payments for a limited time, yet interest does not accrue on your balances. 

Credit card forbearance, on the other hand, describes a situation where you are able to skip payments on your credit card for a limited time, yet interest does accrue. 
Therefore, I feel as if I have been misled and the company refuse to acknowledge this fact. I would like this matter reviewed and corrected. 
I can be reached at ( XXXX ) XXXX or email me at ( XXXX ) I appreciate any help you can offer, thanks.
