Complaint:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Complaint:
In XX/XX/2023, Citibank froze my savings account. Claiming that it was inactive, even though I had just deposited money in it in XXXX. The nearest branch is XXXX miles away, so the only way to contact them is with their customer service number. I have called over 25 times in the past 7 months, for help to get access to my account. They say there is nothing that their department can do. They gave me an address and script to say to another department in TX. I have send multiple letters in the mail. The last one I decided to get it certified and signed, which they received in XXXX. Still no response. I've called again and again explaining that the TX office is not helping, but still nothing is done. I just want access to my hard earned savings and to close my account.

I hereby dispute the accuracy of the account information on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX closed account as of XX/XX/2023. I believe that certain refunds related to warranty, maintenance, and other services are missing from my account, which is in violation of federal statutes, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 


In regards to the total loss of my vehicle, which was financed through XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As part of my financial arrangement, I had purchased ancillary products, including extended warranties and maintenance plans, which should have entitled me to refunds or adjustments in the event of a total loss, in accordance with federal laws and regulations. 


Upon reviewing my account, I have identified discrepancies and missing refunds for the following products and services : Extended Warranty : According to federal regulations, refunds for unused portions of extended warranties should be provided in the event of a total loss. However, I have not received any information or refunds related to the extended warranty on my vehicle. 


Maintenance Plan : Similarly, federal statutes require that unused maintenance plan services be refunded in the event of a total loss. I have not received any communication or refunds related to the maintenance plan I had purchased. 


GAP Insurance : Additionally, I had purchased GAP insurance through XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to cover any deficiency between the insurance settlement and the outstanding loan balance. I would like a complete and detailed breakdown of the GAP insurance coverage and its application in my case. 


I kindly request that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX thoroughly investigate these discrepancies and provide me with a detailed account of any refunds or adjustments owed to me as a result of the total loss of my vehicle. 


Furthermore, I expect that any inaccuracies or omissions in my credit report pertaining to this matter will be promptly corrected in accordance with the FCRA. Please provide written confirmation of the actions taken to address these issues and ensure that my credit report accurately reflects the status of my account. 


I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a timely response within the legally required period of 30 days.
