Consumer complaint received 2020-08-18
Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (PA)

On or about XX/XX/XXXX I received confirmation that a judgement had been entered against me by Citibank in the amount of {$16000.00}. This was originally filed in XXXX and then filed again in XXXX. It initially appears to be 2 judgments but upon review, it is evident that it is one balance entered 2 different times. 
I contacted Citibank to try to settle this balance. I was advised that they no longer had my file and to contact the attorney listed on the judgement. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX XXXX - the attorney listed. She advised me that her firm no longer managed the Citibank judgements, she gave me the name of the new agency/contact : XXXX XXXX @ XXXX and XXXX. I left vm for XXXX everyday and my calls were never returned. I hired a debtor attorney who sent XXXX an email and was advised by XXXX that they do not have my file and that I need to contact Citibank. See below. 
I have contacted Citibank and they are telling me that I need to resolve the issue with XXXX and XXXX. I have been going in circles for almost 30 days. 
I am trying to settle this debt and seem to have no way of resolving this.
