Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My bestbuy card was closed in XXXX, after i paid off the entire balance on the account caused by inaccurate late fees and interest. I only took this long to report the account because Citibank restricted my access to my statement balance, but I recently found an old statement from XX/XX/XXXX. I was charged {$29.00} for a late fee for missing a payment on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX even though I changed my due date on XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. There is an email confirming this. 

On the statement it says the closing date was XX/XX/XXXX and that they were decreasing my credit limit. It makes no sense since I made two payments before the next due date XX/XX/XXXX, and paid the minimum on XX/XX/XXXX {$34.00} XX/XX/XXXX {$200.00} XX/XX/XXXX {$200.00} I request Citibank investigate this situation and show me their findings, if they do not provide proof, it would admit noncompliance.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Unexpected increase in interest rate
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NE

Complaint narrative:
I am being charged four separate interest rate charges each month. This began in XXXX. My minimum payment is between $ XXXX {$520.00} per month. The amount of interest I'm being charged per month is around {$300.00}. So of the approximate {$500.00} I am paying, {$300.00} of it is interest. Simple math tells you that's 60 % interest. The credit card company ( citi ) claims that I agreed to " promotional offers '' at a certain interest rate. After the offer ended, I agreed that the rate would increase ( like double ). Over the years, this has compounded into the current 60 %. I never agreed to anything, not by phone or mail or email. The phone number that was on my account was a landline that I haven't had for 15 years. I spoke with an accounting supervisor who agreed that I am " technically '' being charged 60 % interest but that he's sorry, there's nothing I can do about it. When I asked him HOW I agreed to these charges, he said it was through mail. I told him I haven't received anything in the mail from citi in years and he just said he's sorry to hear that. This is fraud in its purest form. I'm sure they'll get away with it because they're a huge company and they can just take the money they're stealing from their customers and pay off the right people.
