Consumer complaint received 2023-07-14
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA
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:
I am facing severe issues due to the failure of Citibank 's fraud detection system, and a subsequent lack of prompt resolution of the fraudulent charges on my account. 

Around XXXX of XXXX, I had transferred a balance to this credit card, which prior to that had an account balance of {$0.00}. I had only used the card occasionally before this event, and following the balance transfer I used it exclusively for monthly auto-payments to reduce the transferred balance. There were no other activities on the card. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank contacted me, stating they had noticed suspicious activity on my account. Upon reviewing my account, I discovered numerous fraudulent charges from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately contacted Citibank, requested to close my card, and initiated a dispute against these charges. The Citibank representative assured me that the majority of claims are resolved and credited within a few business days. 

However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed the fraudulent charges were still present, and new unauthorized charges had been posted to my account. I contacted Citibank again to add these charges to the dispute. I was then informed that it would take two weeks from the initial dispute filing date ( XX/XX/XXXX ) for the charges to be credited. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I found another fraudulent charge had posted to my new card, with a posting date of XX/XX/XXXX. I again contacted Citibank to add this to the dispute, and I was then informed that it could take up to XXXX months for the fraudulent charges to be credited. Moreover, they confirmed these charges would remain as part of my owed balance as reported to credit bureaus during this period. 

Citibank 's claims of routine account monitoring of suspicious activity to detect fraud or unauthorized use and their assurance of {$0.00} liability on unauthorized charges are clearly contradicted by my experience. From little to no activity for years, my account suddenly showed dozens of charges at convenience stores, liquor stores, fast food, pharmacies, restaurants, movies, bars, hotels, from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, for a total of {$1500.00}. Citibank 's early warning fraud detection system failed to alert me to these clearly suspicious activities until XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX days after the spree began. 

The repercussions of this are severe. The fraudulent charges are reflecting in my balance, causing my debt-to-income ratio to increase, and my credit score to decrease. This negative impact on my credit score is entirely due to Citibank 's failure in their detection and resolution system, and it appears this may not be rectified for up to three months.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: PA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Complaint:
Several years back I enjoyed using my discover XXXX credit card tremendously. For two or three years in a row I'd use roughly $ XXXX in credit with it a year. 

My credit limit is $ XXXX with them and I've asked them to increase my credit limit for three years now and they've repeatedly rejected my request despite my annual income, credit score, and personal payment history with the vendor being exceptional. 

The reason they continue to reject me is because they failed to honor a fraud dispute I placed one year, which wouldn't cost me {$2500.00} had I not sued them and the vendor in court to determine who was at fault for causing and perpetuating the fraud that had occurred ... Due to the litigation, they are retaliating against me by rejecting all my requests for credit limit increases.

State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
A Charge Off from Barclays Bank Delaware for the amount of {$2100.00} is negatively affecting my credit report. I have filed several disputes and no resolution has been made. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated. I am exercising this right to dispute the charge off on my credit report. 

According to my records, the debt collection practices that have been conducted on my account are in violation of the FDCPA, specifically the provisions outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1692 et seq., as well as the provisions outlined in the FCRA, specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681.

I would like to bring to your attention that under the FDCPA, debt collectors are prohibited from using any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt. Additionally, under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to maintain accurate and complete records. 



Furthermore, under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ), specifically 15 USC 6801, credit bureaus are required to maintain the accuracy and integrity of the information they report. The charge off on my credit report does not meet this requirement. In addition, I would like to bring to your attention that charge offs are considered gross and ordinary income under the Internal Revenue Code, and as such, should be reported as such on Form 1099-C by the creditor. Failure to issue a 1099-C for the charge off may result in penalties for the creditor.
