Complaint:
During the summer of XXXX, I was getting estimates from several local XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that had become fragile due to my old age. The first two XXXX XXXX provided estimates with no charge for the consult. On XX/XX/XXXX, I visited XXXX XXXX for their estimate. Before meeting the XXXX, I signed a financial agreement that addressed my responsibility for charges not covered by dental insurance, which I did not have at that time, and for charges incurred for services, which I would not be receiving, as I was coming for a price estimate consult and not for any services. I did not get the estimate I came for but the XXXX  did suggest that I get XXXX XXXX XXXX, totally irrelevant to my urgent need for XXXX. The XXXX did comment on my other dental issues, all of which I was already aware of and receiving treatment for. As I prepared to exit, I was told that I owe {$190.00}, which I refused to pay because I was not informed of a consult charge, I would not have agreed to the consult if there were a charge, and because I had received no services. Soon after, I received invoices from XXXX, which I returned with a note stating my refusal to pay for the above reasons. In early XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from Budget Control Services ( BCS ), XXXXXXXX XXXX collection agency, that gave me directions for disputing the debt. I followed their directions and timely submitted to them my reasons for disputing the debt. On XXXX, I received a credit alert that a negative item has posted on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from my XXXXXXXX XXXX bank informing me that my {$8800.00} line of credit was being reduced to {$2100.00} and that my XXXX XXXX had dropped almost 100 points. I have never been late on a payment as my credit report shows. My available credit is my property and it has been taken from me. This is a defamation of credit, not to mention extortion. According to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX reviews, I am not their only victim.

Complaint:
An inaccurate account transaction from XXXX XXXX is being reported on my Equifax credit report which should have been deleted upon failure to verify the alleged debt. 

I have never done any business with XXXX XXXX and have never entered into any contractual agreements with the company. After disputing the information with XXXX XXXX, the company has agreed to instruct Equifax to place the item in dispute. See attached. 

Equifax has failed to take reasonable procedures to ensure that the account information is 100 % accurate and that proper consent was given for the information to be furnished and reported.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: AZ
Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023 I contacted my bank to report a transaction that I believed it was fraudulent from a scammer. I asked for the transaction to be voided or cancelled ( reversed ) and the bank confirmed they would. My card was cancelled, and they sent me a new one. However, the charged remained on my account for the following days. I followed up with the bank and requested status for several times, their response was always that I would see it on my following billing cycle. I submitted a dispute because the bank deemed the charge a legitimate transaction from the beginning. I submitted all the evidence I could and the response from my bank suggested that the other party had strong evidence since the charge was for a service that was provided. I came to the conclusion that the service that was provided was to pull money from my credit card and give it to the scammer. A phone call from a supervisor was requested and when finally received the call, they explained that there is nothing they can do. During the dispute process they allowed the merchant ( third party ) 45 days to provide evidence. At this point I didn't know who the merchant was since it was all part of the Scam. When I finally was able to contact the merchant ( third party ) they affirmed that they can not do anything since it was a transaction that happened over 30 days ago.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: GA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
I had two credit cards with Citibank, I cancelled the Citi XXXX card on XX/XX/22 because I couldn't justify the annual fee with my spending habits. At the time, I had XXXX Thank You Points. Note, the two cards were combined in Citi 's Thank you point program. I was unable to see the Thank You Points separately in the program website, from everything I could see, the points were combined and not associated with either card anymore. 

I ask the CSR if I needed to do anything with the Thank you points after cancelling, since the cards were combined. I was told no, because they are combined. I received a confirmation email that my XXXX card was cancelled on XX/XX/22, it stated that I needed to use the thank you points within 60 days. It also stated you won't have access to the site unless you have another card, which I do. I assumed this was a generic email that did not differentiate between combined and non-combined Thank you points accounts. 

I logged into my account in XXXX and noticed that XXXX thank you points had disappeared, I called the Thank you Department and was told there was nothing they could do because it was after 60 days. I called back and the new CSR tried to reinstate my XXXX card to see if they could fix it that way, but it was denied due to the time frame. At this point, I was told the points were gone forever. No other options were provided, I would have been happy with a similar credit on my other open card. 

I lost {$900.00} worth of points because of a misunderstanding on how the cancellations work when you have multiple cards that are combined in the Thank You Points program. At a minimum, the points should be paid out as a credit at their lowest {$0.00} cents value. Why would points that I earned just disappear? Why would a reasonable consumer cancel a card with {$900.00} of points on it to save a {$99.00} annual fee?
