Consumer complaint received 2023-02-03
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

I had called XXXX when I was having difficulties obtaining a new car when I was stuck in XXXX, XXXX. Based on what I had been told in early XXXX, when I was on the phone, the representative told me after she had removed the incorrect addresses that my credit score would be XXXX. To my embarrassment at the car dealership, they showed me that the credit score was affected by a charge off from when my daughter had used my credit card and the amount was PAID IN FULL by me by negotiable instrument and remittance coupon with MONEY ORDER tendered by me to XXXX XXXX  over XXXX years ago! I had no idea that the interest was still running. According to the rules of the statutes when tender is delivered, interest and late charges must stop! XXXX had still not removed it and neither did XXXX have my permission to share my private information to any third party. When in XXXX of this year, after being turned down by a few banks for financing due to that erroneous income as charge off or discharge would be considered income by the IRS, that should not even be on there. So, I did write to XXXX and I do believe that I am having retaliation based on me opting out of negative adverse reporting and asking for those harmful adverse information of my private information being shared to the public. I received XXXX letters of adverse action which goes agains HJR 192 & Public Law 73-10 as well as title 18, 8, the law also states that Credit Reporting Agencies do not have authority to report as they are not government but they could be construed as financial institutions in commerce using credit data as money. They make a profit with data sharing. 
Citibank on the phone let me know that XXXX called Citibank and " ordered them to reduce my credit limit from XXXX down to XXXX. '' ( I believe that is a code ) and I have received all of the credit reporting agencies with the same notice along with the car dealership letting me know of the lowered credit score and adverse action. 

These are damaging against my person and harming me. I opt out of negative reporting as it goes against " the privacy act ''. I believe I am being cyberbullied with my credit report as it has harmed me and I could not get a car and had to stay in hotel rooms until my car could be repaired and it took me about XXXX weeks to get home. 

These credit agencies are being paid by the companies and this is a XXXX violation of racketeering against my " full faith and credit '' .I demand that my score be restored to the highest score and all negative inquiries about my personal business be removed as it is harmful for the economy and all of these companies are being paid in full with negotiable instruments or they are using my credits open ended account and benefiting from the Racketeering scheme that they charge for companies to acquire information and I also would like proof that they also pay companies to report to them so that the people will have to pay higher interest rates or be turned down for credit when no one should be turned down based on title 18, 8 and HJR 192, public law 73-10.
