Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
ON XX/XX/2019, Citibank closed all 3 of my credit card accounts without warning. I reached out and was told the accounts were closed do to " too many revolving accounts '' and they reserve the right to close the account at any time. What exactly constitutes " too many accounts? '' Is Citibank acting in a monopolistic manner in which they need to be your only creditor so that they make the most money? Can one not have credit lines with other financial institutions? My credit is flawless and that is the reason I and able to pick and chose which credit lines to use. I believe Citi observed that my balances were always paid in full, and that they were not earning money by charging me interest. 

Payment was always mad in full and on time. 
Oldest account open for 8 years As a result of Citi 's action, my credit score will be negatively effected by lowering amount of available credit thus increasing credit utilization percent. It will also damage the age of accounts since the oldest account with Citi was 8 years. 

Credit card companies should not be able to close your account for doing business with other financial institutions by damaging your credit score,

State: ID
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I disputed a " 60-day late payment '' Nissan reported to XXXX and XXXX. I leased my XXXX XXXX in XXXX. When my lease was up in XX/XX/XXXX, I got a loan through XXXX XXXX XXXX to buy out my lease. The loan officer, XXXX XXXX called Nissan XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and the agent gave her the payoff. A full amount payoff check was mailed from XXXX XXXX XXXX before my lease ended on XX/XX/XXXX. Now, approx 15 months later, Nissan is has reported a 60-day late payment on my credit reports. I first called Nissan and they said to simply file a dispute with XXXX and XXXX. I filed a dispute with both companies by giving my account of the lease. XXXX and XXXX sent the information to Nissan and Nissan denied the dispute. Next, I contacted XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX and she wrote a statement verifying the details of the payoff. I disputed the inaccurate, 60-day late payment reporting from Nissan and attached the letter from my loan officer, who is now the branch manager, XXXX XXXX XXXX She clearly remembers the situation. She sent the tax and title fees directly to the State of Idaho. Nissan was claiming the tax and title fees were supposed to be sent to them. XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX called Nissan multiple times and informed them that in the state of Idaho ( a non-title holding state, ) the financial institution sends the money for the tax and title fee directly to the state and the State of Idaho mails the title to the lienholder. They finally sent the title to XXXX XXXX XXXX several months later. I have the supporting document from XXXX XXXX XXXX or you may reach XXXX XXXX at XXXX. I have worked very hard to have an excellent credit score and Nissan 's 60-day late reporting dropped my credit score by XXXX points on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. This is the only negative item on my credit report.

Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX and Greentree and Ditech are all adding fraudulent charges to my account just to try to take more money from me that they are not owed. I wrote a check to them for my full mortgage payment every single month since the inception of this loan, for full principal and interest payment and they cashed my checks and did not credit the amounts to my account. I called and wrote and tried forever to resolve it with them. then they started collecting my checks and holding them and not cashing them. by miscrediting my payments and then later not cashing the checks at all, their scheme was to then start charging me all sorts of fees and accusing me of being late and not paying. they called many times and spoke rudely and calling me names and threatening me with foreclosure and would not acknowledge the reality of the situation which is that they received and cashed my checks. then they began returning my checks to me after holding them for months. they continue to threaten me with foreclosure. I tried to talk to their attorney who also seems to be in on the scheme and told me and my attorney that I should stop sending checks because if I dont send a huge amount with the thousands they allege are overdue they wont accept the checks.

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan
Sub-issue: Denied request to lower payments

Complaint:
I have had my {$430.00} auto loan payment with car max finance for 2 and 1/2 years and up to XX/XX/2020 I have been current with my payment. Due to coronavirus impacts I have been unable to work and have depleted my savings paying rent buying food and making my car payment so I have {$0.00} money left and since XXXX have fallen behind on my rent and car payment. I reached out to car max asking for some help letting then know I was unable to make my XXXX payment due to work problems related to covid 19 and if there was anyway to get some help or delay my payment. I spoke with a representative in XXXX asking for help and letting them know my finances and I was told due to no form of income they would bot help me ... .which makes zero sense because if i was able to find work why would I need help putting off the paymet? The people who need help are the ones being effected by the coronavirus and have lost jobs or are unable to find work due to the shutdown of the economy! It makes no sense that I can not get help because I have {$0.00} income at the moment but for the last 2 1/2 years been current with my payments! I need help so my car that ive worked so hard to pay on the loan for the last 2 1/2 years dose not get taken back with only a year and a half left of payments till I own it. Its sad that Car Max Finance cares so little about their paying customers that they are unwilling to help put off payments in this troubled time!

I have a problem with American Credit Acceptance reporting to all credit agencies that I owe them {$8000.00}. I finance a vehicle XXXX XXXX XXXX and because of financial difficulties due to XXXX of my wife and lost income, I informed American Credit Acceptance I could no longer keep up the payments and I would voluntary surrender the car back to them.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I have filed a credit dispute with Equifax in regard to a bankruptcy being reported on my consumer credit Public Records profile. My last certified dispute letter was dated XX/XX/2020. I requested that they provide me the original documentation bearing my signature and method of verification for this public record and all associated accounts or promptly delete. Equifax responded to my request. The response letter was dated XX/XX/2020. Equifax stated on page 1 the following, " We are unable to locate a credit file in our database with the identification information you provided, additional identification information required to process your request. '' I was able to get my credit file if they didn't have my information it doesn't make sense they sent me a whole credit report file. I know for sure that Equifax failure to provide reasonable procedures used to verify this alleged Bankruptcy account is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I sent a letter to the US BANKRUPTCY COURT in XXXX, GA on XX/XX/2020 and they have provided me with confirmation that they do NOT supply information to credit reporting agencies, a letter postmarked on XX/XX/2020. There are several violations of the FCRA in this case and anything but permanent deletion from my credit profiles would be a violation of my civil rights.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NJ
Product: Credit card
Issue: Customer service / Customer relations

Complaint:
I recently received an email from Bank of America ( BOA ) stating that there was a potential fraudulent charge on my VISA card. Rather than call the phone number in the email or click on the link, I went directly to the BOA website. I could n't log in and received a message stating that I could n't access my account, try again later. I also called the phone number on the back of my BOA VISA card. 

I called twice a day, at different times, for 6 days and waited on hold each time for 30 minutes and then hung up. I also continued to try to log into my account, also with no success. This was very disturbing. I finally posted a complaint on the BOA XXXX web page. Several days later I received a phone call ( voice message ) with a new phone number to call. After 15 minutes on hold a representative answered. When I explained why I called I was told that BOA already paid the transaction and that is was n't potential fraud, it was actually a " disputed charge ''. I was told that I was locked out of my online access and I was given the original phone number to call again. I asked if there is an address I can write to and was told no, I can only lodge a complaint by phone. To prevent further charges to my account and because of my inability to reach BOA, I then canceled my VISA card. 

This lack of service/concern is totally unacceptable from a major financial institution. When I received my bill in the mail I saw that the charge was {$99.00} plus international transaction fees for a supposedly free product from a company called " incredible cigs '' and monthly additional charges. I could n't lodge a dispute with BOA, so I paid the bill and will not do business with BOA again. I did find a mail address to write to on my just received bill, but I am on vacation and will now hand write a dispute, but I have no hope that BOA will honor my dispute.
