State: TX
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: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I made a purchase {$280.00} with XXXX XXXX ( XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX. Since I didn't receive the t -shirt I purchased, I filed a claim with Citi and received the conditional credit for dispute from Citi on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Bank XX/XX/XXXX statement ). Citi told me that they tried to contact the merchant to resolve the issues with but failed. So Citi reverse-charged the credit {$280.00} on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Bank XX/XX/XXXX statement ). Citi asked me to settle this dispute by issuing a permanent {$80.00} credit on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Bank XX/XX/XXXX statement ). Citi mentioned that I could continue working with the merchant to get my full amount of money back but Citi would not involve in the future discussion any more. I agreed with the settlement with Citi and accepted the {$80.00} credit. I continued working with the merchant and the merchant finally issued a full refund of {$280.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Since my original purchase was made via XXXX, the refund was issued through XXXX ( see XXXX transaction details ). The refund was shown as " XXXX *END. '' on my Citi statement on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Bank XXXX XXXX statement ). However Citi reverse- charged me again on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Bank XXXX XXXX statement ). I contacted Citi to understand why Citi reverse-charged me again since then. Citi insisted that Citi issued the refund on XX/XX/XXXX and they decided to reverse charge the money. But from the XXXX transition details and my Citi bank XX/XX/XXXX statement, it is clear that the refund was issued by the merchant rather than Citi.

Complaint:
USAA Bank provided a letter dated XX/XX/2021 informing me that all checking and savings accounts that my spouse and I have held for over a decade were being unilaterally terminated by XX/XX/XXXX. No reason was provided. The closure timing was inconvenient as I was expecting some late IRS tax refunds to be deposited into that account.

This is denying me liquidity to pay my holiday and year-end expenses, About {$18000.00} is be tied up due to these related issues.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
Under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I maintain that I have resided at the above referenced address for the past 3 years. I have listed under penalty of perjury my correct social security number and date of birth, and I would appreciate an updated credit report to be sent to me within the next five business days from Experian, XXXX and XXXX XXXX collectively. I believe that each consumer reporting agency has invalidated the true spirit of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. The Act first established XX/XX/2003 was intended to establish a plan whereas common American citizens could obtain a copy of their credit reports at least once a year free of charge. Since each credit reporting agency now has marketing divisions such as Free Annual Credit Report, XXXX XXXX  and XXXX XXXX, the automation system to obtain the free annual reports is looped into an information request to steer citizens into additional product offers that are excessive and unnecessary. Even though I may have received an approval of an updated credit report from either Experian, XXXX XXXX or XXXX respectively, it is unfair that I need to do a mail request since I can submit my personal information through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) portal. I believe that since the CFPB is the sole responsible oversight party of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, its imperative that any additional solicitation of information from the credit bureaus should be blocked permanently. I along with any other citizen should receive a free credit report upon request. The credit reporting agencies are an important aspect of the national banking system to properly function, but the current aggressive marketing campaign soliciting citizens for an arbitrary FICO score has gone too far, including but not limited to Experian Boost. We must return to a common ground that is fair for all consumers in the United States, and we must be able to request additional marketing on our own terms. Accordingly, I am making a request for a free credit report with confirmation number to my attached address.
