Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY
Product: Credit card
Issue: Privacy

Complaint:
Costco opened up and authorized Citibank to open a XXXX account in my name. My previous Costco card as from XXXX XXXX. Back in XXXX, I had expressed to XXXX XXXX that I did not want any other XXXX XXXX cards, and specifically inquired about how the account would close. I was told it would automatically close in XXXX of 2016. XXXX of this past year, I again inquired to confirm that the account would close on its own in XXXX of 2016. I again expressed to XXXX XXXX, who was trying to convince me to sign on to another type of XXXX card, that I had no interest. We already had XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX card. I received a Citibank Visa card last week from XXXX, when I called citi, they stated that all of XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts were turned over to Citi and that we were notified in each statement with leaflets that this change were to take place. 

I never authorized anyone to open an account for me at Citi. I never authorized anyone at Citi to run my credit. I have since tried to call Citi to no avail because of the large demand from Consumers calling Citi regarding their new Costco card. I was told from my first conversation with Citi, that the new account would close on its own after two years of non-use. The people at Citi also proceeded to tell me if I were to close the account it would hurt my credit score. They then proceeded to explain the wonderful benefits of owning their credit card. 

I am absolutely disgusted with how my account was opened without my permission or authorization. I think this credit system of losing points on your credit score because of closing accounts is wrong and insulting. I have always paid my bills on time, and never have been late. I purposely make sure my credits watched and managed closely. To have them open an account without my permission is an invasion of my personal privacy. I would like the account closed, and done so in a manner that DOES NOT REFLECT ON MY CREDIT. I want it closed by them acknowledging to the credit bureau it was opened inadvertently and without my permission or authorization.

Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
I contacted Discover back in XX/XX/2020 and froze my account. I contacted them again at the beginning on XX/XX/2020 to report my card as lost or stolen.

Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
XXXX  XXXXXXXX2019 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IL XXXX To : PORTFOLIO RECOVERY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX Subj : Please Verify Debt Below Account Number : XXXX Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX  Balance : XXXX Dear PORTFOLIO RECOVERY, This is to inform you that I've recently pulled my credit report and noticed that there's a collection from your agency on my credit report. I have never been notified of this collection. However, this letter does not imply that I refuse to pay this debt. Rather, I would like to dispute your claim. 

As per the FDCPA, I have the right to request a validation of this debt. I request you to prove that I am indeed the party who is by contract obligated to pay off this debt. 

I hope you are aware of the fact that reporting any invalidated information to major credit bureaus may constitute defamation of character, as negative listing on credit report does not allow me to enjoy the benefits of good credit. In addition, you must also be aware that until you validate this debt, you can neither continue collection activities nor report this information on my credit report. I'm sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request is likely to put your company in serious legal trouble with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and other state/federal agencies. 

Please attach copies of the following documents : 1. Agreement with your client that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt. 
2. Agreement that bears signature of the alleged debtor wherein he promises to pay the creditor. 
3. Complete payment history on this account so as to prove that the debt amount you wish to collect is correct. 

Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX
