Complaint:
On XXXX around XXXX XXXX, I was making payment on one the credit card accounts by Citi Bank . I noticed that the available credit shows {$0.00}. I contacted the bank, and they told me that credit card closed on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. They did not disclose the reason and said that I would receive notice by mail. After I hang up the phone, immediately checked the other 2 credit card accounts from Citi Bank and they were closed as well. 

THE ACCOUNTS CLOSED BY CITI BANK : Citi Shop your way- XXXX Citi XXXX XXXX City Best Buy- XXXX After conducting researches, I found out that the bank must provide reason over the phone. I contacted the bank again and spoke to XXXX from team XXXX. He told the same, I would receive notice by mail. When I said XXXX, that he can not refuse to disclose the reason over the phone, he placed me on hold for about 15 minutes and transferred the phone to account specialist. 
XXXX from crew XXXX provided following reason : " Due to the amount of recent inquires for the credit line increase, they decided to close all the accounts. '' I replied that never been late on any of the credit cards payment, some of them recently were paid off and have spending limit less than 30 %. 
Some credit inquiries are old and some credit line provided to me automatically by the bank without even requesting credit line increase. 
I requested to reopen the accounts and received the following reply from XXXX : " Once accounts closed they can not be reopened. '' When I advised that I spoke to Consumer protection agency and they said that bank could reopen closed credit card accounts, she just replied, " This is a Citi Bank internal policy, and she can not reopen the account. '' I advised XXXX that I am now recording our conversation because she is lying and she hang up the phone. 

After all this, on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I noticed that Citi Bank charged me {$27.00} late fee on card ending XXXX. The due date of the card was XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The payment of {$100.00} was made on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX around XXXX XXXX. I called Citi Bank, and without reviewing the account, they said that they did not receive payment. When I advised conducting researches the account specialist reply that she will waive the fee. I made additional {$18.00} payment close the balance over the phone and specifically asked to email me that the balance is {$0.00} but of course still waiting.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services
Sub-issue: Billing dispute for services

Complaint:
This is a complaint of record since the issue was resolved. 
*** I intended to to freeze my credit reports due to a notification of a potential identity theft threat. 

Both TransUnion and XXXX signed me up for a " credit monitoring '' service or membership with a monthly charge of approximately $ XXXX. each. 
Not only was I unaware that I had signed up for any service, I received no confirmation or receipt of said charges as one would with any online purchase. 
It was only when I saw the charges on my credit card bill did I realize something was amiss. 
I immediately jumped thru all the hoops to get the charges reversed, each took at least 2 hours just to track down who to call and what to do. 
Both companies refunded the charges without dispute. 
I filed a complaint with the State of Minnesota & they referred me to this website. 

As a side note, I had no difficulty with XXXX.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA
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 had a bank of america credit card opened since XX/XX/XXXX with a perfect payment history - never even a 30 day late. Then suddenly in XX/XX/XXXX, right when I lost my job during / related to COVID, they unsympathetically shut down my card and terminated our 7 years ' long relationship. 

Given the circumstances of COVID and job loss in XX/XX/XXXX, I explained to Bank of America that I was experiencing hardship, and the fact they terminated my relationship and closed my good standing account, I needed to allocate funds where necessary for survival. 

I was advised by customer service that I would not be further punished with adverse credit reporting. 

This proved to be untrue, and B of A ruthlessly brutalized my credit with negative reporting during which period I thought was in hardship agreement and that some grace was to be extended. 

Given my perfect history from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, I would expect some compassion from B of A to see this was obviously circumstantial and not a pattern of my character ( again, just look at my history - it's clearly covid related ). 

Now my credit is so far worse I'm barely able to obtain new housing and B of A has only stepped on my neck and put my face in the mud - disgraceful corporate behavior, especially for an organization that received plenty of taxpayer dollars to help their own balance sheet. 

I just want a reasonable opportunity to get back on my feet and financially normalized, but it's increasingly difficult to do with this type of reckless, dismissive, and insensitive corporate behavior. 

Either they can fix the matter and meet the hardship terms their customer service reps so confusingly promised me, or return all taxpayer dollars for anything they were beneficiary to during covid. 

The individual customer matters not more than statistics with Bank of America it seems.

Sub-issue: Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms

Complaint:
I contacted Chase regarding a promotion they were running for their Reserve card. The promotion provided XXXX bonus points. Since I was an existing Chase Slate customer I called their customer support organization to inquire about the new card promotion and confirmed I would be able to take advantage of the bonus points by upgrading my current account. I was told yes, but they needed to run my credit to increase my credit line to ensure I was eligible. They ran my credit and increased my limit. Fast forward 3 months, the bonus points were never received. I reached back out to try to resolve the problem. Spoke to an agent and someone claiming to be in a management role. They would not share the call recording with me and simply said that they could not honor the bonus points since I was a current customer. I also went on twitter to try to escalate, but Chase did not resolve the issue and stopped communication with me. I feel like I was not provided accurate information and would not have upgraded my card ( which includes a annual fee ) if I knew I was not going to receive the bonus points.

Complaint:
In XXXX of 2016 I purchased a car from XXXX In XXXX NY about 8-9 months after I purchased the Vehicle I traded it in and the amount owed from the loan from New City Funding was added to the new loan from dealership. New city funding is stating that this vehicle was a voluntary repo and has this loan on my credit report as delinquent and I have reached out to New City Funding for them to show proof of voluntary repo which I still have not got they stated during a call that the dealer had called and said I gave the car in as a voluntary repo when I spoke with the dealership they stated that is incorrect. When I requested a copy of the certified letter New City Funding is required to send when a vehicle is repoed with the amount that was owed with proof of what the vehicle was sold for after the alleged voluntary repo and I have yet to receive anything from them and it has been well over 2 years. I have also filed a complaint with the XXXX and New City Funding has not responded to that report either. Also New City Funding stated on my credit report that the starting amount owed for the vehicle was {$6000.00} and that there was 8 payments made in the amount of {$250.00} which would be a total of {$2000.00} which would bring the balance down to {$4000.00} and they stated when they got the vehicle they sold the vehicle at the auction and I now have a balance of {$3900.00} on my credit report. Which if this vehicle was a voluntary repo there would have to be papers I signed to turn the car over to them as well proof of service for the certified letter to be sent which they do not have because I did not voluntarily give the vehicle it was a trade in and I was never served or received a certified letter from new city funding and I have attempted to get documentation from them for over 2 years and still no documents.

Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I began reviewing my credit report and have been attempting to find out what some negative items on my credit report are. I sent a letter to the credit bureaus in XX/XX/XXXX asking for their assistance in verifying those items. Some items were addressed, some were not. I sent a second round about a month later, again some items were addressed and some were not. I sent the attached letter directly to a company by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I believe in response to this letter - XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me the attached letter deleting my file and to my understanding deleting this from my credit report. Now, I have received this letter from Central Credit Services. Referencing that they have been asked by XXXX XXXX XXXX to investigate a debt - and WITHOUT PROVIDING ME EVIDENCE THAT THIS IS MINE are attempting to coordinate a payment plan. I have several account numbers that I 'm looking at and everything is getting confusing. NEITHER creditor is validating that these items are mine. The dates do n't make sense. The locations do n't make sense. I have always had health insurance. I have NO IDEA what this is and quite frankly i am sick and tired of asking. It appears as though this account is being bounced around from creditor to creditor. Regardless- i need clarification on ANY & ALL ACCOUNTS that either one of these creditors " say '' belong to me. I am asking for proof as constituted by the law ... which means something bearing my signature, or a contract in my name. This is a waste of my time, energy and money.

Complaint:
A couple of months ago, I received a note of change on my FICO score ( at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). XXXX said the FICO score is provided by Equifax. They decreased the FICO score from 770 to 699. This decrease affect my credit, when I am planning to buy a car. 
I contacted XXXX, they tell me to contact Equifax. 
I emailed, call and wrote comments in their facebook site. Finally got a hold of an equifax rep ( named XXXX XXXX, and she looked and took about 30 min to find more information and tells me that there is nothing derogatory in my credit. There is NOTHING that would trigger a decrease in my FICO score.

I asked about the error in computing the scores that Equifax had to fix not too long ago ( ruining many scores ). The represenative explained that my credit report doesn't show any negative mark to justify a lower FICO number. She tells me it is XXXX or FICO and they can't fix anything. 

I do not know where to contact. I have maintained an outstanding credit, and having the score lowered by almos 100 points is negatively affecting me. 
Equifax is not taking responsibility for their accions. 

This is Equifax Dispute number : XXXX
