Complaint narrative:
Please reference last complaint # XXXX Attached is my latest correspondence : Citi, I had a conversation withXXXX XXXX On Wednesday The XXXX of XXXX. I informed her I was out of state and in the car that I would be back in NY and follow up with her then. Maybe, since you record all conversations you should review this one. 

XXXX XXXX initially would not give me her last name and said they are not provided with an employee identification number. She also said she needed to run a HARD inquiry on my credit report to initiate the claim. If this is correct that is fine, but i have not had this done before as I have just had my credit line increased by Amex and there was no Hard inquiry. I also asked to speak to a supervisor which XXXX XXXX replied that it was her. Please have someone contact me relating to this issue and reopen my inquiry. 

Thank You, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I contracted to get a loan with PNC through a dealership and my first payment was due XX/XX/2023. I log into the website XX/XX/2023 and request that my personal banks information be linked to my account. The bank notified me their processing time would be longer than I had to make a timely payment - thats easy, I make the payment over the phone. 

On XX/XX/2023, I received an email from PNC including my name, my banks name, my bank account number, the character of my bank account, and several other key data points in an unsecured, unencrypted email. I recognized this as enough information to compromise my identity and have incessantly reached out to PNC for resolution, and they done very little to nothing in the last XXXX business days. 
I confirmed with them that this is not their standard business practice. 
I confirmed the origin of the email is PNC - meaning it isnt a phishing attempt. 
I confirmed that it is their policy to redact account numbers in electronic communication. They simply did not and couldnt explain why this incident was different. 
The only thing they have done in XXXX Business Days is continue to escalate the matter internally, while my information continues to be compromised.

Complaint narrative:
My loan has since been declined on XX/XX/XXXX due to retaliation as the reason that was given by email is within guidelines and was being handled at closing as a payoff. Which was the main reason for getting the HELOC to begin with. The actual letter of decline is due no later than Tuesday of next week ( 10 business days ). I submitted my compliant to multiple regulators and I want this retaliation to be documented with my current compliant since now they are looking for sixty additional days. The compliant filed here was on XX/XX/XXXX and the original compliant which is currently waiting on a response is XXXX. I also have additional information as it relates to the appraiser, that I will share upon receipt of Truist response. Thanks!
