Consumer complaint received 2024-04-25 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Went to pay citibank XXXX preferred credit card on XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$300.00} on their app. 

The bank I believe manipulated the payment/ or there was a glitch- took full balance {$10000.00}. I also saw payment for {$300.00}. Of course I didn't intend on making a payment in full. 

I immediately called the bank within minutes, and they told me the couldn't reverse the payment, I had to wait until it was processed and to call back in 24hr. I then called my bank Citi ( where the money was drawn from )- they told me they couldn't assist, it was on the citi card side, they couldn't stop payment. 

I called the next day XX/XX/XXXX, the representative said no problem we will put in a claim to have it refunded, I should receive payment/ refund in 5 business days. 5 business I followed up, I was told my request was denied because I hate a late payment of XXXX at this point, they couldn't refund me back the full XXXX, XXXX but could substract XXXX and refund me the difference. I was fine with that, I spoke to XXXX and that request was processed. The same day I spoke to her on XXXX, I noticed citi dropped my credit limit on the card to {$300.00}. I called back to see what the issue is and was told, that is a seperate, unrelated issue and the refund/ reverse payment is still being processed. Still needed to wait the 5 business days, then 10-15 days. I received in mail, a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, that if payment was refunded, your account would be over the assigned credit limit. Do note, my credit limit on this card hasn't changed in over 5 -7 years. My credit score is in good standing. I never was late on payments and how do they just drop my credit limit, even when the card was paid in full, at this point. Makes no sense. 

Can you look into this matter. How dare they keep my money, which put me in a financial bind with my other bills and obligations. How dare they switch my credit limit, to manipulate and justify keeping the money. Although I had a balance on the card, I never was late on payments. 

This is matter seems very suspect and I feel I was manipulated by the bank. It is hard to speak to anyone above and beyond the bank representatives. I'm not sure this is racially motivated or what the motivation for keeping my money was, but this should not have happened. I should have recieved my money back.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I called on Tuesday, XX/XX/2024 about the status on my account being corrected. The Mohela representative said that my account WAS updated to show that I was on the SAVE {$0.00} plan all last year and through XXXX this year so I DID NOT owe any money last year so I could request a refund of the extra payments I made. However, the next day, XX/XX/2024 I see my account is now showing that I owe {$100.00} and it's past due. So I called on Thursday, XX/XX/2024 to ask why my account was showing this. The Mohela representative said that my account DID NOT show as the {$0.00} SAVE plan for last XXXX and XXXX and the request for refund placed my account in delinquency. And is past due by 83 days already since that payment was in XXXX. Their finance department caught the error and cancelled the refund but now it will take them 23 days for them to show it correctly on my profile. If they take the full 23 days, my account will go automatically in a forbearance and hurt my PSLF count, even though it was Mohela 's fault for providing incorrect information. I'm very frustrated with Mohela, they never provide the correct information and it takes months to correct my account for things they did wrong.
