Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a payment of approximately {$12000.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a bathroom renovation project, which included replacing tiles and removing and installing a new vanity. In addition to this payment, I had also purchased {$4000.00} worth of tiles separately for the project. The contractor requested the full payment upfront, which I provided. However, they failed to deliver the agreed-upon services and caused substantial damage to the bathroom wall during the process. This damage required me to hire another company to remediate it, incurring additional costs. 

Despite multiple attempts to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via phone and email to request a refund, they never responded. I provided all necessary evidence, including letters and proof of my attempts to resolve the issue directly with the XXXX, when disputing the charge with Citi Bank. Unfortunately, on XX/XX/XXXX, Citi Bank responded that they are denying my dispute, leaving me with both the financial loss of around {$12000.00} and the additional expenses of repairing the damage caused, plus the {$4000.00} I spent on tiles.

Complaint narrative:
I have been victim of Identity theftsince XX/XX/year> due to othercompanies dataleak. My Experian account was hacked and my personal information including SSN, past address, employer etc are all exposed. I thought I stopped them from doing it once, but in XXXX my experian account was hacked again. On XXXX, I had a long call withexperianasking them how I can stop theives from logging into my account. Theycould not provide any solution. When I said can I close my experian account so that no one can log in again, they did not give a clear answer and impatiently told me if I close the account noone can log in and that it is their end of shift. So I asked them to terminate my experian online again. However, on XXXX, I started to receive experian " username reminder email '' and " log-in verification code text message '' then at XXXX, I received an experian email saying " we verified your info, ... Finish resetting your password '' so clearly hacker has been able to log into myaccount again! When I called experian no one was available to answer the call due to XXXX XXXX holiday. I quickly logged into the account and saw my credit freeze was lifted and my phone number was already changed. So I had to change my username, phone number etc quickly and freeze my credit report again. It seems that Experian has a security loophole or backdoor and the hackers are able to find out my username through online portal and change the password to log into my account and take over my credit report. And to this day, they do not have a solution to stop thieves from accessing my very critical personal information and committing fraud, this is a critical issue and against the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
