Consumer complaint received 2021-01-18
Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (MI)

Citibank has no personal representatives to talk to people on the phone. It is a totally automated voice response system. This is frustrating. I do not bank online. I can't find anybody to help me resolve this at Citibank. I will forward any information requested to you. 

After getting collection call on XX/XX/XXXX I paid the the balance in full through their automated system - {$81.00}. However, I then continued to get calls that I had an outstanding balance. I was furious and I closed the card. I put a check in the mail. I continued to get calls and then on XX/XX/XXXX it was too much I paid again using their automated system and I had to pay a higher amount. 

The automated system told me my total balance due was XXXX. I had paid the card in total on XX/XX/XXXX from my checking account for that amount. It seems they lost that payment. In order to avoid further interest I paid through my checking account again on XX/XX/XXXX and their automated system first told me XXXX was due but then it told me I had a different balance after I put in my check information - {$200.00} : I have included both email confirmations for both payments below.
