Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: KS
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Trouble using your card
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Complaint:
citi bank/homedepot consumer credit card has arbitrarily dropped my credit limit from {$3500.00} to {$2000.00}. I called the company and was told it was an automatic action due to something the credit bureau sent them. I have approximately {$1800.00} charged so when they dropped the limit it affects my credit score due to percentage charged versus limit. I called Citibank on XX/XX/2020 and was told the limit was dropped on XX/XX/2020. I tried to explain to them that by now showing the card is almost maxed out it will drop my credit score. I was told that was not their problem. They stated it was an automated process and nothing could be done. 
I do not see how this company can get away with doing this to consumers when amount of charge versus limit is a factor in credit score.

Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I had contacted American Express to close out my Amex EveryDay Card ending in 61000 which they had closed out on XX/XX/XXXX. I then requested to reopen the account on XX/XX/XXXX and was told I was not qualifying for reinstatement per federal regulation and it had to have been completed within 90 days. This is a false and misleading statement, as there is no federal regulation that outlines when an account may be reinstated or reopened. I was then unfairly deceived into applying for a card again and was declined and incurred an inquiry on my credit due to AMEX customer service 's false information surround federal regulations. The only regulations that govern an account reopen request are BSA ( KYC/CIP ), Regulation Z, and Regulation B ( should the request be declined. )

Company: Focus Holding Company
State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Closed XXXX account in XXXX 2016 after paying them for over two years on time and with no late payments. Received verbal and written confirmation that the account was paid in full and closed. Received final statement with XXXX amount due shown as XXXX. Two months later, XXXX sent me a bill with fraudulent charges claiming I had n't paid ; even after the account was closed with a XXXX balance. I called their customer service to dispute and received a very unprofessional response stating that they would not remove the charges and threatening collections. XXXX sent the charges to a debt collector which are now impacting my credit and financing costs. This is clearly consumer abuse, lack of business responsibility and lack of respect for consumers. The current system we have in this country is very slow to react to improper credit report abuse via credit reporting agencies that sleep on unprofessional credit reporting by companies like XXXX and debt collectors like Focus Receivables.

State: CA
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:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a copy of my credit report from all 3-credit reporting bureau 's ; Transunion, XXXX, and XXXX. There were collection items on my credit report that were questionable. I reached out to all three bureau 's and disputed these items and asked them to validate this debt, verify this debt and provide me with supporting documentation ( wet ink signature of a contract with my name on it ) or any supporting documentation showing that this debt is mine. The reply back was simply, this debt has been verified. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, I re-disputed these items again, inquiring about methods used to determine that these debts actually belonged to me and to provide any supporting documentation that shows these 3-debts as valid and verified. Transunion and XXXX  failed to respond to me, failed to accurately and thoroughly investigate and failed to provide me with any supporting documentation.

The FCRA and the U.S. Congress states that the burden is on the credit bureau 's to provide documentation to the consumer that supports their verification and validation findings regarding a debt dispute. Reference : United States Court of Appeals, Third circuit, Jennifer CUSHMAN, Appellant v Transunion Corporation, No. 96-1553. Decided June 09, 1997. I cited this case when sending re-dispute request letters to all 3-credit reporting agencies, yet they have failed to comply.

In addition, I have received a collection letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a debt that I don't recognize as belonging to me, as I can't recall signing anything or agreeing to anything. They have also failed to respond to my request to send me supporting documents that this debt belongs to me. 
This is negatively impacting my finances and is causing great harm to me. These bureau 's have failed to follow debt dispute procedures. I am the victim of identity theft and having documentation validating and verifying this debt is imperative. These items should be removed when they failed to accurately verify and validate the debt and send me evidence of their findings. 
Please allow me the ability to submit my certified letters that included my drivers license, a current utility bill and my social security number so they may help identify me. As well as my certified letter to the collection agency requesting verification, validation and any agreement/contract that identifies the debt as belonging to me.

Sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Complaint:
A while ago I disputed a collection account that appeared from XXXX  ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) for a debt that was originally from XXXX XXXX. I disputed on the bases on NO Contract, No Validation and it was removed from my report with TransUnion, XXXX and XXXX credit bureaus. Over the last week XX/XX/17-XX/XX/17 it reappeared on all 3 bureaus again, with no notice or warning. Basically, this alleged debt was removed over a year ago after it was disputed, and then re-added within the last week. No notice from either credit bureau ( TransUnion, XXXX or XXXX  ). I called all bureaus and asked that it be removed based on the the fact that it was removed after a previous dispute yielded No Contract or No Validation. I was told that it would not be removed but re disputed and would take up to 30 ( MORE ) days. Meanwhile this Inaccurate, Unverified, Non-Validated, No Contract alleged debt has done significant damage to my personal credit report and credit scores.
Either removed from all 3 credit reporting bureaus ( not able to re-add ) or Legal action filed against all parties involved

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: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
After noticing that my deferred payments, during the multiple times that I was diagnosed with XXXX, were being reported as past due, I contacted Ford Motor Credit Co in order to have the incorrect information corrected. I contacted their customer service in XXXX, 2022, XX/XX/2022 and XXXX 2022, and I explained that I was granted deferrals during the times listed as being late. They indicated that they are reporting everything properly on their end and that I would have to submit a dispute to the credit bureaus in order to update the reporting on all 3 credit bureaus. The customer service rep further explained that no matter what I do, she rarely sees any success when disputing credit reporting information but also confirmed that she saw my deferrals in the system. I submitted MULTIPLE disputes via XXXX, XXXX and XXXX without any success. It is imperative that this information is corrected due to the fact that I am applying for a commercial real estate loan and these payments will hinder my ability to qualify for the business loan.
