Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (MO)

On XX/XX/2023 on my citicash card ending in XXXX I disputed a charge from an XXXX for {$190.00} from XXXX. 

At the XXXX XXXX XXXX I had called an XXXX and gave them my Citi XXXX number I was not in XXXX When I went to the XXXX stand there was no XXXX which I had called and no message from an XXXX driver. 

When I received my statement there were two charges for {$190.00} from the XXXX XXXX. I talked to XXXX at Citi on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX  He said because I was a valued customer he would remove {$180.00} When I called next morning to pay my {$710.00} Citi bill the {$180.00} had not been removed Also XXXX said he had emailed me a letter about protesting the second XXXX {$190.00} charge as I had not received the original letter sent to me. From XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX I talked with three or four reps from XXXX and XXXX until XXXX XXXX  mostly waiting on hold.. 

I told them I had memorized the card ending in XXXX and wanted to keep that credit card number. Also I did not want the hassle of calling ten companies to tell them because of a disputed charge I had to give them a new autopay CC number. 

XXXX the US supervisor who I got to after an hour took 15 minutes and removed the second {$190.00} XXXX charge and tried to help me keep the XXXX number I memorized, I am XXXX XXXX XXXX by the way. but he would have to go through fraud and I would have to get a new card to memorize and call the ten companies i have on autopay. After waiting another XXXX XXXX i got to Fraud in XXXX and they hung up on me. 

I am asking for the XXXX card to be reinstated and the removal of both {$190.00} XXXX charges I have disputed I spend {$100000.00} a year on credit cards and have an XXXX to XXXX credit score so I am worth keeping as a customer and having my request heard. 

Thank you XXXX XXXX PS I dont have these problems with XXXX

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Knight Adjustment Bureau (TX)

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint regarding a debt collection issue. I recently paid off a debt to a collection agency in full, but the collection has not been removed from my credit report. When I contacted the original creditor, they informed me that it was up to the collection agency to remove the item from my credit report. However, when I contacted the collection agency, they informed me that it was up to the original creditor.

This situation is causing extreme frustration and creating a headache for me as I am in the process of trying to make other large purchases and my ability to do so is being hampered by the negative impact on my credit report caused by this unresolved issue.

I understand that the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires that credit reporting agencies must remove debts from a consumer 's credit report once they are paid in full. The fact that this debt has not been removed after being paid in full is a violation of this law and I am seeking support from the CFPB in addressing this matter.

Please investigate this issue and take appropriate action to ensure that this negative item is removed from my credit report as soon as possible.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
