Complaint narrative:
Between XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, I made online donations to XXXX charitable organizations in the total amount of {$720.00}. When the Citibank credit card statement came, names and dollar amounts of these transaction were correct. 

XX/XX/XXXX, getting ready for tax preparation. I looked at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX receipt for year, the XX/XX/XXXX gift was not included. I called XXXX. They had not received the money. I called all XXXX. All confirmed they did not receive the donations. I called the number on credit card. Was told to call and file claim. Which I did. 

XX/XX/XXXX. I received letter asking for a list of merchants names, dates, and dollar amounts which I sent XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter saying too much time has passed since billing date.., and I need to contact merchants directly. Which I did. This is the second time merchants confirmed the donations. 

XX/XX/XXXX. Citibank sent a letter for each merchant saying they needed a valid credit slip. There are none. I gave on line where you dont necessarily get one and merchants never received the money so they didnt issue receipts. 

XX/XX/XXXX. Citibank sent blank forms on each merchant asking for information about my contacts with merchants. I completed forms and mailed them overnight to bank. 

This has been going on for five months now. Ive done everything Citibank employees have asked of me. The fact remains : Citibank misappropriated my money. They also did not disburse funds as directed. This is a bank error.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
What Happened : I have repeatedly sent payments to XXXX for my account ending in XXXX via registered mail with USPS, and USPS has confirmed delivery to the address provided by XXXX. Despite this, XXXX continues to report my payments as late, which is inaccurate and in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I have contacted XXXX customer service multiple times, where I was given different addresses for payment submission, yet XXXX either claims they have not received the payments or does not acknowledge receipt. 

In addition to these issues, I am opting out of having my credit card utilization reported to the credit bureaus. Despite my right to opt out, as provided under relevant privacy laws, XXXX has continued to report this information without my consent. Furthermore, I do not receive a monthly privacy statement from XXXX, which is required to inform me of my rights and options regarding the reporting of my personal information. 

Applicable Laws : XXXX  actions violate several federal laws and regulations : 15 U.S.C. 1681s2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : This statute mandates that furnishers of information must report accurate information to credit reporting agencies. XXXX  continued reporting of my payments as late, despite confirmation of payment receipt, is a clear violation.

15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : This requires credit reporting agencies to maintain reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy in the information reported. XXXX failure to update the payment status accurately reflects non-compliance with this requirement.

12 CFR 1022.42 : This regulation demands accuracy in the information provided to consumer reporting agencies. XXXX inaccurate reporting of my payment status violates this regulation.

12 CFR Part 1016 ( Regulation P ) : This regulation governs the treatment of nonpublic personal information by financial institutions, requiring them to provide a privacy notice. XXXX has failed to provide me with a monthly privacy statement, which is required to allow me to opt out of certain types of information reporting. 
15 U.S.C. 6802 ( XXXX XXXX ) : This law requires financial institutions to provide customers with a privacy notice that explains their information-sharing practices and allows customers to opt out of certain types of information sharing. XXXX has not provided me with the required privacy notices, nor have they honored my right to opt out of reporting my credit card utilization. 
15 U.S.C. 1681n ( a ) : Under this statute, any entity that willfully fails to comply with the FCRA is liable for damages of at least {$1000.00} per violation. XXXX continuous misreporting of late payments, despite evidence of timely payment, and their failure to provide a privacy statement, constitute willful non-compliance.
