Company: HANCOCK WHITNEY BANK
State: LA

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I am seeking assistance in the matter of a dispute between all major bureaus and a financial Bank and lender Hancock Two payments were sent to Hancock Whitney in the month of XX/XX/XXXX these payments were sent to cover my monthly installment payments on an auto loan. Not only did they receive and confirm receipt of these two payments in XXXX, but a payment large enough to cover 2 months were also made in the month of XX/XX/XXXX. NOTE : XX/XX/XXXX payment was never late. I filed a dispute with the lender directly after several attempts to resolve this countless phone calls, emails, letters, and even copies of my bank statements well enough is enough. This is an internal problem with the staff and management of this lender they need to be investigated and possibly sued for damages. Onward I was reported 60 days late on XX/XX/XXXX after filing my initial dispute they updated the reporting to 30 days, Well this is still incorrect so I initiated another dispute with all three bureaus each time the lender has creatively updating my file but never removed or correcting the 30 days late XXXX notice it showed updated but nothing changed, XXXX noticed the 60days was changed to 30 days, XXXX was up dated added how much I paid on my loan each month because I always pay more than my amount due. A third dispute was requested now XXXX is refusing to reinvestigate. I have sent supporting documents showing this is their error. Recently they updated my credit report adding a late payment for XX/XX/XXXX ILLEGAL in XXXX causing my XXXX  score to drop further. My account and credit file clearly state for the year XXXX, I made 12 on-time payments another error. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX have a responsibility to the consumer public to do their due diligence, and that's making sure that information is accurately reported otherwise disputes are properly investigated. The terms of my installment loan grant a 10-day grace period, therefore, I have until the 10th day of the following month to make my payments before payment is considered late and a late fee is XXXX, not a bureau reporting. I provided proof these payments weren't late not even to get a fee XXXX. This lender is the liar and thief here I am the victim, the victim of credit discrimination. As a result of this reporting error and how my dispute has been handled, I am forced to seek further action in this matter and will continue to dispute this account until the reporting is satisfactory. The terms of my installment loan grants a 10-day grace period, therefore, I have until the 10th day of the following month to make my payments before a late fee is XXXX, not a bureau reporting The balance of this loan is around XXXX not XXXX the lender should be shut down.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute several erroneous inquiries that appear on my credit report. After reviewing my credit report, I noticed that there are multiple inquiries that were made without my permission or knowledge, and which are negatively impacting my credit score. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, any inquiry made on my credit report without my permission is considered unauthorized and must be removed. I request that you investigate these inquiries and remove them from my credit report as soon as possible. 

I have included a copy of my credit report highlighting the unauthorized inquiries for your reference. In addition, I have not authorized any new credit accounts or inquiries recently, and I have not applied for any new loans or credit cards that would result in these inquiries. 

I believe that the presence of these erroneous inquiries on my credit report is unfair and is negatively affecting my credit score. Therefore, I request that you remove them immediately and notify me in writing of your findings. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please let me know if you require any additional information or documentation to resolve this dispute.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Other banking product or service
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
I have had a long banking relationaship with Citibank that includes a Checking, Savings and several credit card accounts. 

When I applied for a Citi Wealth Management I discovered that Citibank has my citizenship information recorded incorrectly. I am a XXXX XXXX who is a Permanent resident. Although Citibank has copies of my passport, they have me recorded as a XXXX XXXX. Citi Wealth asked me to contact the banking arm of Citibank to have this corrected in their records since they use the same identification database. 

On XX/XX/2023 I contacted the Citibank customer service line to request this correction be made. However, I was told by a CSR, and then by a supervisor, that they are unable to make such a change. Particularly : 1 ) I had to wade through a multitude of prompts and holds since none of the options on their phone menus were about updating or correcting account information. After about 10 minutes of holds and transfers I got connected with a CSR.

2 ) The CSR could not understand the difference between a resident and a citizen. After consulting his manager, he wanted to send me a W8 from to fill out. I pointed out that W8 is for non-residents, and that for US persons a W9 is used. He offered to send me a W9. I pointed out that they already have a W9. He confirmed. However, he was still unable ( or unwilling ) to make the correction. I asked to speak with a supervisor. 

3 ) A supervisor ( name given was XXXX, ID # XXXX ) came on the line and after I explained the situation he informed me that what I am asking is " not possible '' and that I would need to take my " XXXX '' passport to a branch. After explaining to him again that I am a XXXX XXXX who is a permanent resident of the XXXX, he claimed that my status as a " XXXX  '' in their system is correct and that there is nothing they can do about it. He claimed that making a change would amount to " lying ''. 
After about 5 minutes of arguing, I asked to be transferred to another perosn. He said his manager " XXXX '' is busy and will give me a call back soon. When I asked about how to report a feedback or lodge a complaint of this customer service experience, he said I need to write a letter. have it signed and notarized, then send it via registered mail to Citibank. Clearly making it onerous for me to report my dissatisfaction. After hanging up, I waited for 24 hours but never received a call back from " XXXX ''. 

The issue is still unresolved. Citibank is basically violating IRS rules by maintaining false data and refusing to correct the information in their system and their employees have no training to understand or apply these rules.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Credit report shows inaccurate information of debt with incorrect addresses and dates. I have previously asked for verification of debt to which company only showed what they have on file which did not prove debt was mine or that the debt was owed. Even though the debt is over the statute of limitations, they continue to update and report debt to all three bureaus. Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act ( FTC Act ) prohibits unfair methods of competition in or affecting commerce. I bring this up because the company has sent multiple emails stating the debt is on a " prelegal track '' which is a clear indication that they were prepared to sue when they can not due to statute of limitations. I request for this to be deleted off of my credit report on all three bureaus due to these facts.
