Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On or around XX/XX/XXXX2023, I attempted to make a purchase with my existing Citibank credit card and my purchase was declined. Per Citibank my {$21000.00} line of credit was reduced to XXXX, with a existing balance of {$9700.00}, leaving a line of credit of {$270.00}. I had this Citibank account since XXXX, never missed a payment, credit score close to 700, credit card balances under 50 %. Per Citibank we reduced your available line of unused credit to prevent fraudulent purchases over the holiday period. I would like to file a formal complaint against Citibank for this discriminatory practice of targeting minority accounts and lowering existing lines of credits without notification or disclosure based on perceived notion someone would attempt to utilize unused lines of credit during the holiday therefore, Citibank must block the consumer from making any purchases during the holiday period by reducing the lines of credit to nothing. I am asking for investigation into this practice that targeted minorities and block purchasing power during the holiday without any legal justification or based on actual credit sconce. I also would like to file a formal complaint as act of retaliation I believe Citibank intentionally lowered my line of credit by {$10000.00}, as act of retaliation for the many complaints I filed with CFPB against Citibank and asking that CFPB conduct an investigation into how many consumers more specifically minorities were affected by Citibank deceptive business practice of lowering consumer credit scores to prevent fraudulent activities and disclose what federal and state laws gave Citibank the right to conduct business in this manner. I also requesting CFPB to enact of enforce laws that prevents this type of abusive practice targeting minorities consumer and fine Citibank and provide financial relief to all partied affected by Citibank deceptive lending practices.
