Based on my decision to exit, i asked service company to immediately close my online account and purge all my identity related documents and information that are electronically held.. I insisted repeatedly many times but company 's support service kept on spinning the issue and unable to answer satisfactorily for the reason holding on to personal data despite of no monetary business..

Complaint:
Alias name displays my father 's full/real/legal name. I do not have an alias or nickname and my father 's credit is not one I want tangled with mine because it is NOT the same. XXXX XXXX XXXX is my father and I am XXXX XXXX XXXX. My nickname or alias is NOT XXXX. It is not a nickname of XXXX. I was not even named for him it but for my mother 's maiden name of XXXX. I used to get his mail when I lived in the same state as him because my name was even then being considered a nickname alias of his when it shouldn't have been and was never recorded on documents by myself. If my father did then he was committing fraud trying to pass as his son 's name versus his own. Or if it was an honest mistake ok great, just needs to be fixed. Having received a copy of my credit report after applying for an apartment lease, had me see that my credit report lists his legal name as my alias when my alias is the same as my legal name -- XXXX XXXX not XXXX ) A ( not XXXX ) XXXX.

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:
On XXXX17 an online payment was made paying off balance of {$1200.00}. I did not initiate or make this payment as I had made a payment 3 days prior. I called Citibank and reported this to be fraudulent. As my checking account is tied to the CitiBank card via their website to make paying my bill easy. The credit card account had a very small available credit left on it. Asked to speak to fraud as again I stated I had not initiated this payment and was concerned that my information had been compromised and another made payment using the bank account on CitiBank website thus freeing up credit line enabling fraudulent charges to be made. CitiBank informed me that fraud does not work that way and that there is nothing they can do as it was an online payment. My personal bank was informed, they immediately put a stop payment on this charge being presented and advised I call CitiBank back and inform them of the stop payment. 
CitiBank was notified via phone and I was informed that I would incur a return check fee, as again they did not feel this was fraud. 
I made a 3rd phone call to Citibank again asking for the fraud department, I was denied speaking to them as they deemed this payment was not fraudulent. A supervisor did speak with me, she closed my account and promised to refund the return check fee when it appeared on my account. She also stated this is not a fraudulent transaction and that she was doing this as a precaution. 
This was a potential disaster, I had to beg and insist that it be remedied. I felt it was naive to deem it nonfraudulent because it was a payment. Again my bank account information is on the Citibank website so that I can easily make payments. It seems to me if someone got my info, got online and initiated payment allowing credit limit to be restored, they could have gone out on a spending spree with newly freed up credit limit.
