Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I, the consumer and natural person, applied for a line of credit on XX/XX/XXXX. I was wrongfully denied credit by Citibank N.A. when I applied for Costco Credit Card. 
I, ( lowercase name )  Agent here on behalf of ( upper case name ) Principal hereby accept all titles, rights, credit, interest and equity owed to the ( uppercase name ) Principal. 

Regardless of the reason for denial, I have the RIGHT to credit. 15 USC 1691 ( D ) ( E ) Withholding my access to my securities is securities FRAUD. Federal Reserve Act section 16 ( 1 ) & ( 2 ) I have recorded multiple Citibank supervisors & managers from the consumer credit department admitting to violating the Equal Credit Opportunity Act by way of Discrimination. Without Equality there is Discrimination! 

Meaning a person with a XXXX credit score shall be given equal opportunity to credit as another person with a XXXX credit score. 

Citi bank is in violation of Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Consumer Credit Protection Act. Since you are denying me access to my credit. 

Other Violations Adverse Action against a consumer is AGAINST THE LAW according to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act which is codified in 15 U.S.C. 1691c and is pursuant to civil liability under 15 U.S.C. 1692k.

You are subject to criminal liability for violating 15 U.S.C. 1691 as I have proof that I was discriminated against by Citibank due to the response I received.

Citibank is in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1642, U.S.C. 1681m and 12 CFR 1002 because I, the consumer made an application in good faith, but credit was not issued.

Furthermore, because my social security number ( credit card ) was used on an application, turning it into SECURED COLLATERAL which is PREPAYMENT of credit and I received NO benefit. This is proof of fraudulent activity ( unauthorized use of credit card ) on behalf of Citibank N.A. Which is also SECURITIES FRAUD I am demanding Citibank release my collateral security for Best Buy & Costco cards in the amount of {$15000.00} each! And mail out my credit cards to me within 7 business days. Also provide Costco the approval code for my immediate use.

If Citibank fails to make any reasonable procedures to resolve this matter within 5 days of receiving this letter and approve me for the use of my credit card I will indeed make Citigroup N.A. criminally and civilly liable for ALL actual damages pursue it to 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o.

Including REVOKING ALL SECURITY INTEREST FROM CITIBANK N.A.
