Consumer complaint received 2016-03-29
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: VT
Product: Credit card
Issue: Late fee

Complaint:
Sears credit card : I mailed my payment in for the full amount of {$22.00}. The due date was XXXX/XXXX/16 ( a Sunday ). My payment arrived on XXXX/XXXX/16 ( a Monday ). My next bill showed a payment amount and a {$2.00} interest charge. I was confused because under late fee it said {$22.00}, but I sent in my {$22.00}, so I sent in the {$2.00} thinking that was because I was one day late. The next bill came and now it said I owed {$48.00}. I could n't imagine how so my daughter looked into it and we realized that they said I was late ( even though on this site it says that it should not be late if the mail is n't delivered on due date, and the payment arrives the next day ) AND that they had charged me a late fee of XXXX % of my due amount ( {$22.00} ) which was not only outrageous but confusing. So I called the account question phone number and they would n't do anything. In fact they tried to tell me that if the due date is Sunday I have to have it mailed there by Saturday. I have filed a complaint with them but am worried that they will continue to add charges OR if I pay it, they will not eventually reimburse me. Also, I ca n't imagine why their computers do not adjust for the due date on Sunday event where payments received by mail on the next day, Monday, should be considered on time, and therefore probably are illegally charging late fees to many people.

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

Complaint:
Citimortgage holds the mortgage loan to my home. 
I defaulted, and Citi filed for foreclosure in XXXX XXXX Ohio Court of Common Pleas. 
They won. The judgement against me is under a stay, while I have worked with Citi to receive a mortgage loan modification. For 7 months I have worked with Citi for a loan modification. 
On XXXX/XXXX/2016 a Citimortgage " Homeowner Support Specialist '' told me in a recorded call that I can not have a mortgage modification because the loan is owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and told me that " XXXX does not participate in the loan modification program. '' The Citimortgage representative told me my qualifications to receive a loan modification were never considered. 
Every document I have seen states Citimortgage owns my mortgage loan. 
Citimortgage participates in mortgage loan modification programs. 
Citimortgage is under a consent decree with the U.S. Dept. of Justice to offer assistance with distressed homeowners. 
I am a distressed homeowner. 
There is something wrong about Citimortgage 's refusal to allow me to receive a mortgage loan modification. I am employed. I am well qualified for a loan modification. 
So do they own the mortgage loan or not? 
If XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX owns the mortgage loan on my home, why does it not say so in the public record, and how did Citi have the legal standing to sue for foreclosure? 
If XXXX XXXX XXXX does own the mortgage loan on my home, how does that stop me from receiving a mortgage loan modification? 
What Citimortgage has presented me instead of a mortgage loan modification is an impossible repayment plan for all missed mortgage payments, the ballooning finance charges, the late fees, escrow, all their attorney fees & their court costs, well over {$22000.00} and is demanding that I pay XXXX of that whole amount in XXXX lump sum, up front. 
The problem here is that to now, Citimortgage has asserted they own my mortgage loan, and now that I can qualify for a mortgage loan modification they have either A ) ginned up s pretext for denying me a mortgage loan modification or B ) committed some public fraud, claiming they own the mortgage loan when they do not.

Sub-product: Refund anticipation check
Issue: Confusing or missing disclosures

Complaint:
I have been a customer of PayPal since 2011, and used their services for random online purchases. I also bought Cryptocurrency last fall ( balance of $ XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email saying PayPal was permanently limiting access to my account, without any explanation. Thinking it was a scam email, I called them and talked to a phone rep, and her supervisor, they both confirmed my account was blocked, they did not know why and did not offer any resolution options. They also stated that my funds will be held for a period of 180 days! I understand something may have trigged their security system and this is for my protection ( or theirs ), but they are not giving any explanation why this is happening or what do I need to do to resolve the issue. At this point, I would like to close this account, get my money back and move on from PayPal.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA
Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Complaint:
I hold an account in XXXX. I have been using XXXX XXXX for mail communication for many years. XXXX day I got a letter from citibank saying, I need to update my address to the physical address. So I called up citibank and updated the address. I have been using direct debit for some services and I have given some checks for rental, etc. Later I came to know my checks have bounced as my account was frozen. I visited the bank and came to know that account freeze was due to address change or something. I talked with the personal banker and he apologized for the inconvenience caused to me as it was a mistake from citibank side. He gave me a letter stating that, the account freeze was due to citibank 's problem, not mine. 
But still I had to pay the late payment fees/penalty to rental, aum etc. I had to talk to the branch manager to inform this. I tried to get an appointment by visiting the bank as well. But the employees over there said, he is in meeting and they will contact me once he is available. I waited and nobody called confirming the appointment. I called the bank again asking for the appointment regarding the issue with my account. They said they will contact me after checking his calendar. I waited again and I had to call them again for the same. Still no response. I sent an email to the manager, asking for an appointment. He did n't respond to my mails as well. 
XXXX day I went to the bank with my friend to talk to the manager ( XXXX XXXX ). Finally he showed up. 
He was staring at the computer for XXXX minutes and then he said, there was no record of me calling the bank for the address change. And he ca n't help with whatever loss has happened to me. The irony is my address was updated from XXXX XXXX to my physical address. How can it happen without me requesting for it. 
He transferred my complaint to XXXX branch, which has nothing to do with my issue. Till now there is no update on my issue. 
The service they provide is horrible. This problem is from XXXX 2015 onwards and still no solution. They are acting irresponsible. The money might be small. Still no one should get treated like this.

Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint:
I received an offer by Citibank XX/XX/2015. The offer stated that if I opened a Citigold Checking account and met their requirements they would give me a signup offer of XXXX XXXX XXXX miles. I opened and funded the account and met their spending requirements and they will not honor their offer. I have in writing from Citi over their secure message service several messages from Citi confirming I qualified for the promotion, I met the spending requirements, and that they would be issuing the miles to my account XXXX XXXX. 

However, Friday they sent me a new letter telling me they were not honoring their end of the agreement. I advised them I have their confirmation in writing that I would receive the points, but they do n't care. This is a breach of contract at least and possibly even fraud. The reasoning they gave for me not getting the points is because they want proof I was targeted for this offer, but I do n't have the letter I initially received anymore. I threw it away after their reps confirmed in writing that I qualified.

Issue: Using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
I was making a transaction on XXXX using my bank of america debit card and the transaction never went through. Moreover, they sent me a text message saying there is an unusual activity and asked me to confirm if it was me making the transaction. I sent a reply back saying yes and also called them and informed the same. Regardless of all this, the next message from them is that the card has been blocked! 
When i called them again, they put me on hold for 33 min searching for questions to ask about authentication. Finally, they dont even ask the questions but simply ask me to walk in to a bank of america center with my ID proofs. I live in XXXX in Minnesota and there is no bank of america in a XXXX mile radius! I tried talking to the supervisor but she has been arrogant enough to even accept that there has been so much trouble caused and in return was rude enough to say thats how the organization works!! 
Now i just need to travel a XXXX miles for just trying to purchase something online.!!

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint:
I have been dealing with some issues with Navient for years now and have gotten no where. My initial problem is that there are XXXX loans on my acct that were dispersed after I graduated from college and the school has no record of them being dispersed. I have been disputing them with XXXX/Navient for years trying to get answer and they are not being helpful with providing me proof of the loans going to me. 
While looking over all the fine print and payments I have made on my acct I have discovered that since XXXX 2006, when I started to repay my loans my total balance was XXXX ( that includes XXXX dollars in loans I am disputing ) I have paid since XXXX 2006, putting them into forebarance 2 times and paying the fee upfront for that ... I have made a total of XXXX $ in payments but my total loan balance has decreased by only XXXX $ which means over XXXX has gone to interest on loans that have a 3 % interest rate. 
I am not a finance person but how can that be????? I have called Navient Consumer advocate lines and they have not returned my call or have had someone call me and tell me they would get back to me and they do not. Navient is not cooperating with this inquiry and I am sick to think that I have paid that much money over that last 10 yrs and my loans have not budged and add to that the fact that I am paying on XXXX loans I have no proof were distributed. I just want some answers and trying to deal directly with Navient is not working.

State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
The Company is Transunion : I filed a dispute about an collection agency, XXXX XXXX, on XX/XX/21. This company violated my consumer rights by not contacting me to let me know about the debt in order to follow the proper steps to dispute the debt with them because I do not owe XXXX anything. They just simply filed on my credit. I have read reviews on the company and they practice unethically. 

I also filed a dispute about a late payment from XXXX XXXX as well. The company was merging at the time with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Due to them not sending me up to date information to where I would send my payment, I was not able to send it in and they told me that they would reverse the late payment. 

It appears that Transunion did not do any research into my claims.
