Complaint narrative:
Around XX/XX/2023 my bank That I had a checking Account with was Closed due to Suspicious Activity which resulted in XXXX XXXX XXXX Reversing a payment or part of a payment around the Amount of {$300.00}. Instead Of the Lender Reaching out to me and informing me, I discovered the incident while trying to Pre-qualify for a home loan. The lender Did not Send a delinquency notice By Mail, Email, or attempt to collect By Telephone. The incident caused my credit scores to plummet. I believe when such incidents as such occurs it should be The lenders responsibility to Reach out to the consumer to resolve the matter before making negative remarks. This reversal occurred around 45 days after the payment of {$440.00} was made. My personal Banking Institution Returned the funds reversed By XXXX to A new Checking account and If the lender had taken proper Protocol and procedure I could have taken the opportunity to correct the adverse action. However they took it at their own liberty to Report the loan deficient. They did not make any contact with me to inform or allow me the chance to correct the discrepancy causing me to Be Denied of Obtaining A mortgage Pre-approval. The original payment was made and they made the decision to reverse the payment. Without informing me of that, and allowing me to remake that payment to stay current. This affected me and caused me to have to request An loan extension which couldve been used some other time of hardship to become current on the loan

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX, I had lunch at XXXX XXXX in, XXXX XXXX, CA. I handed the server my credit card to pay which took him some time to bring it back to me with the receipt. I had not used my card anywhere else for almost a month after that. About 3 weeks later, I logged in to check my online account but the system asked me to update my password. I tried to update to a new password as requested, but the system would not approve the new passwords regardless of the number of attempts over the course of several days. The first week of XXXX, I attempted to log in again, and the same issue to update the password persisted. I contacted Citibank, where the representative tried to verify my account by validating specific transactions. I was surprised by the transactions she mentioned as I did not make them. The rep recommended closing the account and sending a replacement card with a new card number/ costco membership. I activated the new card on XX/XX/XXXX, where I was able to update to a new password to log into my online account. I was shocked to see that my credit card had been abused from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, where numerous charges at physical stores were made, maxing out my limit. During the span of XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank never sent nor did I receive any fraud alerts ( texts, emails, phone calls ) ; nor did the credit card get blocked from the abnormal activities. The person also paid multiple times at different time frames for online identity/people searches, which makes me worried about my identity getting stolen. I am seeking an investigation into this financial crime to solve our dispute with Citibank and to find this credit card fraud abuser who was able to get a copy of my credit card and account information. As of XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Citibank, where the representative stated that there was a card activation of the old card number ending in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I am uncertain as to why Citibank would activate it again. Citi bank has failed to investigate this fairly, and arbitrarily declined all of our disputes stating that we are liable for all charges due to card still being in posession. In the age of information, many credit card abusers can make a copy of a EMV chip, steal credit card numbers and personal information from thin air. Citibank/ Costco did nothing to protect me from this fraudulent grand theft.

Company: ProCollect, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
Initial contact was XX/XX/XXXX with a voice message from XXXX XXXX at Procollect Inc. I called back on XX/XX/XXXX to inquire about the message and was told a debt was being collected for an apartment in Florida. I am a long term Washington resident and have never lived in Florida or been involved with anyone who has rented an apartment in Florida. I provided a dispute via email as requested by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX including a police report and copy of my drivers license for identity verification. The first entry on my credit report occurred at the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX. 
I did not receive any written documentation of the debt or a right to dispute the debt. I called back on XX/XX/XXXX to inquire about the dispute and was told by XXXX XXXX that it may take XXXX days for a resolution and that I should call back on XX/XX/XXXX. On the Procollect Inc website I requested documentation to be sent to me of this debt. I then followed up with a certified letter to Procollect Inc requesting verification of debt and expressing my dispute of this debt. I then received back a final bill from XXXX XXXX apartments in XXXX, FL with the same first and last name for an apartment rental ending XX/XX/XXXX. This letter also had a address in XXXX GA for the debtor in question and a reason for move out of XXXX XXXX. 
I called ProCollect on XX/XX/XXXX in inquire about the status and was told I could now only send email to fox@procollect.com. I sent the email and received a response the next business day stating only that I owe the debt. I did respond asking if we are no longer working in good faith to correct this responsibility. 
In my email on XX/XX/XXXX, I did provide a suggestion as to the correct debtor, as it is easy to find a person with my name who lived in XXXX GA and went to school in XXXX FL in XXXX and happens to have been drafted to the XXXX Texans in XXXX.
