I am writing to address the inaccuracies regarding the bankruptcy being reported on my credit file. The case that you have marked as valid and accurate is, in fact, incorrect. There has been no case brought to trial or adjudicated upon. There is no record of any judgment associated with this matter. Without a judgment, it is evident that no case existed. There was never a judicial review of this matter, so the reporting of such is erroneous.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX Citi Bank declared me Deceased without any verification whatsoever : I could not access my web account since XX/XX/XXXX and finally received letter in the mail on XX/XX/XXXX stating they had closed 2 of my credit card accounts and sent their sympathy. 
Within 5 days, they contacted my XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) stating to him that they were sorry for his loss. He had no idea and immediately hung up the phone to see if i was " alive. '' How they even got his name and number I do not know. I missed time off work and have been thru alot of emotional distress contacting the Probate Dept at Citi Bank, their Customer Service, yet no response or anyone willing to help. I faxed a letter and emailed correspondence, yet no help. Over a month later, recently on XX/XX/XXXX due to me contacting the Credit Bureau, Citi Bank reopened my accounts and now are charging me past due fees and interest from 20 some days ago, Really?????? I am not paying anything to them for what they caused me. My account was in good standing and I always made my payments on time and paid more than I should and now they are doing this to me and no fault of my own. I have missed work going to Social Security Administration to prove I'm alive and hours on the phone with Credit Bureau. To date, I have been unable to use any credit cards that are governed by Citi Bank and today, I was unable to upgrade my mobile phone with XXXX  as my Social Security Number was declined. Citi Bank is unable to resolve this problem and this is a Major Issue, despite my credit score, credit ratio, and credit utilization now that is all messed up. I believe they should dismiss all balance due on charges of credit cards due to all the emotional stress I am having to deal with this - and again, no fault of my own. I work hard to pay my payments and keep my credit score up and now they are going to ruin everything! This is simply not fair ....

Complaint narrative:
Hello I have encountered a worrying transition on my AMEX prepaid gift card. 

I tried to purchase a XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX shop for around XXXX XXXX the card got declined. I attempted to make the purchase on either XX/XX/24 or XX/XX/24. 

I believe there was a fraudulent purchase on my card from XXXX XXXX, CA. It was only {$0.00} but I am worried someone fraudulently got access to my card. The fraudulent purchase was on XX/XX/24, at XXXXXXXX XXXX, the card details from AMEX says that it was made at XXXX XXXX or XXXXXXXX XXXX. I am almost certain this was a fraudulent transaction because I live in New Jersey not California. I believe that the info was obtained through the XXXX XXXX shop transaction as the dates for the fraudulent transaction were very close together. The reason why I think that the info was obtained through there is because XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has gotten many concerns on safety issues and privacy issues. 

Thank You.
