Consumer complaint received 2022-05-26 00:00:00
Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Citibank to alert them to five separates charges all at a XXXX in XXXX, CA ( nowhere near my home or business ) on my business checking account totaling {$580.00}. This account is primarily used for automatic deposits from my website and brick and mortar XXXX system. On rare ( perhaps once monthly/bimonthly ) will I use the card to buy gas from my local gas station. 

I spoke to someone on the phone who filed my fraud complaint/charge and on XX/XX/XXXX I was notified that my request for reimbursement had been denied. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX to file an appeal and was told that I would need to FAX or mail in an appeal. Also, that I would need to contact the XXXX convenience store where the fraud occurred to personally ask them how this could have happened and if they could provide me with an account statement showing how the purchase was made. When I noted that barely anyone uses fax machines in XXXX and that I felt like I was being stonewalled, I was given a XXXX XXXX XXXX South Dakota where I could mail in a written appeal. 

As a business owner, I am disappointed and shocked not only that Citibank failed to flag these charges as fraud ( I spotted them while looking through my own statements ), but that they would expect me to contact XXXX to inquire about how/when/by whom this fraud took place. And that I would then have the time and trust in them to read my written appeal from their South Dakota XXXX XXXX XXXX This is not an insignificant amount of money and I refuse to accept their denial of my fraud claim when these charges are 100 % not my own. 

Please help. Thank you so much.

Company: Tesla, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I paid XXXX XXXX and XXXX dollars to order a tesla model 3 AWD full self driving upgrade. The sales person asked if I wanted to secure financing with Tesla or their affiliated companies, I declined and told them I would secure my own financing. A couple of months went by and the TESLA sales team informed me my vehicle was ready to be picked up. I received a text message from the TESLA sales team informing me that I have a loan amount of XXXX dollar. I immediately called the sales team to inquire about the dollar loan. I spoke to a TESLA team member and he informed me that the XXXX dollar loan came from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they put the money in an account. I was devasted and very heart broken. This public company went behind my back and applied for a loan using my information after I clearly told them I will secure my own funding.

Complaint narrative:
I've written numerous letters disputing the accuracy of the bankruptcy listed on my credit report. My most recently dated dispute sent certified mail with hard copy return receipt postmarked/date stamped XX/XX/2022, I've AGAIN requested you provide me with the proper verification of the information you've entered in my credit file as well as provide me the process ( es ) and procedure ( s ) used to determine this entry is " certified as accurate ''. I included the letter I wrote to the bankruptcy court using the information you have listed in my credit file. I also included the response letter the bankruptcy court sent me stating the court doesn't provide any information to any business, including credit bureaus i.e. Experian, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, etc. You've already completed the investigation stating the same " certified as accurate. '' Once again you've failed to provide me with the procedure ( s ), process ( es ), and documents used to verify this inaccurate information. I've included in this complaint a copy of the blank bankruptcy section of my XXXX XXXX report as it doesn't list a bankruptcy in my XXXX consumer file, however you have XXXX listed as the source of the bankruptcy entry and closed my dispute stating you've verified this information. Who did you verify the bankruptcy information with and where are the documents showing the information used to verify it. Again, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Texas XXXX is an inaccurate address, I don't live at the address nor do i receive mail at the address, delete this address per the FCRA. I've disputed this address for over five years and you refuse to comply with 15 U.S.C. 1681. 

In each letter I requested your company mail me the documents used to verify the inaccurate bankruptcy information along with a copy of my FULL COMPREHENSIVE CONSUMER CREDIT REPORT which includes all information included and listed in my credit file by USPS MAIL. 

Per the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ), your company has failed to perform your due diligence by fully and completely performing a proper investigation of the inaccurate bankruptcy you've listed in my credit file and on my credit report.
