Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MN
Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint:
Earlier this year I opened a Citigold checking account using an offer which would give me XXXX XXXX XXXX AAdvantage miles after satisfying a specific set of requirements. On XXXX XXXX, 2016 a Citi customer service employee verified for me, via online chat, that the promotional offer was applied to my account ( I have a downloaded chat log verifying this ). On XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, 2016 I received verification from a Citi customer service employee that I had met all the requirements of the promotional offer and would be receiving the XXXX XXXX XXXX AAdvantage miles within 90 days. 

Upon following up on receiving my miles I was then informed by Citi that I was not eligible for the promotion. I reminded Citi on several occasions via secure message within my online account that I had chat logs and screenshots verifying that they had confirmed with me months prior that my account was eligible for the promotion, and that I would be receiving my miles. 

To do day Citi continues to deny fulfilling their end of the promotion despite all of the evidence I have and confirmation from their own employees in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX that I was both eligible and would be receiving the miles. 

I am a consumer who has multiple accounts with Citi. I have been a good customer of theirs and have never missed payment on any of my services with them. Their denial of this promotion to me, despite their own employees confirming I was eligible prior, feels like a bait and switch tactic. I am turning to the CFPB as I feel I have no other recourse. 

Thank you.

Complaint:
This is a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX located in XXXX, GA. This company has repeatedly violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and has caused me much unnecessary financial AND mental distress. For starters, they're reporting an erroneous & unverifiable account on my credit report and not to mention an account in which I've asked for proof of claim and in which they have not been able to provide, per the FCRA. Despite my efforts to resolve this unfortunate nightmare for several months now, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has completely ignored my communications and legal submissions to remove this inaccurate information from my credit report. I am well aware of the many, many other complaints filed against this company for their illegal and unethical business. Yet, somehow, this company is still in business. This company 's unprofessional & negligent behavior has caused lots of serious harm, not only to my ability to establish credit & good interest rates, but also to my character as a Professional and as an individual. Please help me, and the many other consumers just like me, to put a stop to the operation of these unethical & immoral business practices immediately. I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance in this matter and hope to hear from you very soon.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX, 2015 I would like to file a complaint against Citi Mortgage. They refuse to consider modify loan, that I now believe was inappropriate to begin with. I have been trying to get this loan modified for several years. The only reason they will not even consider modifying the loan is because I am not delinquent. If I can not get any assistance, I will become delinquent. I do not want to ruin my credit or become delinquent on the debt. 
When I purchased my home as my primary residence, I was put into an interest only commercial loan by XXXX XXXX ( now XXXX XXXX ) for XXXX % of the loan amount. The interest rate was 5.875. In addition, there was a second mortgage with Citi Mortgage at a rate of 7.5 %. XX/XX/XXXX my loan will change from Interest only to Principal and Interest. I will not be able to afford this loan. In fact, I know believe it was inappropriate to put me in a commercial loan for my primary residence, especially since I have excellent credit. I was sold on this loan not really knowing what and why? 
Over the past several years, I have attempted to get these loans modified. I was told several times that no one would talk to me because I was not delinquent. In addition, it seems I am not eligible for a HAMP because it 's a commercial loan. 
I have tried everything to avoid damaging my credit and losing the property. Since I could not get the loan modified or refinanced, a few years ago, I rented the property and moved with family. The rental income covers the interest only loans, but will not cover the principal and interest payment amounts. I continued to try to get the loan modified to no avail. It was my hope to modify the loans and return to my home. 
When the loan was approved, it was based upon my stellar credit and my household income including my income and the income of my husband. I was told I could refinance this loan. In trying to modify these loans, I have had nothing but trouble because I have never made a late payment. In addition, I am now going through a divorce and my household income is reduced, however, I maintain my stellar credit. I am unable to refinance the loans because the value of the property is less than the loan amount. This is my last effort to try and get some help to modify these loans. I am in a situation at this point that if this modification does n't happen I will be forced to walk away from the home completely and allow the property to go into foreclosure. I know I can pay the modified mortgage amount as agreed. 
I keep getting the run around by rude people that stops my process of saving this house. I would like to modify it so I can move back into my home. I need help, quickly and I am resorting to you as I do n't know what else to do. 
Respectfully XXXX
