Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
I have received multiple Citibank AAdvantage co-branded personal and business cards over the last two years to get multiple sign up bonuses. On XX/XX/2019 I received an e-mail from XXXX XXXX that my AAdvantage account had been suspended with them claiming it was due to misrepresentation. I have never misrepresented myself to XXXX XXXX or Citi bank. This suspension led to them seizing all of the miles in the account which totaled near 400,000 at the time of suspension. I previously reached out to Citi in CFPB complaint # XXXX in which they told me to speak with AAdvantage as it was solely their decision. Since then AAdvantage has responded and claimed the miles were taken because I violated a Citi rule. Citi needs to explain to XXXX XXXX that the miles I earned are legitimate and therefore this account suspension is unwarranted. As it stands it appears that either Citi or XXXX XXXX are uncomfortable with the amount of miles I earned using their promotions and do not want to honor their part of the contact.

Complaint:
Trans Union is reporting an inaccurate and inconsistent information in my credit report. I have disputed the inaccuracy on many occasions but Trans Union simply send me a letter that states account verified as accurate without providing me with the description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in my credit report as required by the FCRA. 

I have requested the description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy of this account from Trans Union on XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX but have not received anything back at the time of filing this complaint. 

Trans Union is therefore in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) which states : a notice that, if requested by the consumer, a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information shall be provided to the consumer by the agency, including the business name and address of any furnisher of information contacted in connection with such information and the telephone number of such furnisher, if reasonably available
