Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Complaint narrative:
Citibank has recently shifted to " simplified banking '' which is not simple. They have a disclosure which is very difficult to understand and know what fees I am subject to. I asked if based upon my activity I would be subject to the new fees and their response was that there is one account which will be subject to the fee, but did not tell me which. I have asked to know which account is subject and they have failed to provide this information subjecting me to the new fee.

I signed in to my account and it shows a minimum of {$48.00} due on XXXX, however, I am unable to retrieve a copy of my statement.

XXXX XXXX XXXX - Portfolio Recovery Associates , LLC is harassing me and violating my privacy at my place of residence via a third-party courier acting on their behalf.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I've used XXXX Bill pay to send my monthly payment of {$110.00} to Synchrony bank, for my mattress firm card balance. The system accepted all payments in this method for all of XXXX and XXXX and through XXXX of XXXX. It accepted payments in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. 

My payments sent for XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, are being returned. XXXX XXXX  is sending the paper checks to Synchrony in exact same method as I've sent in for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Snychrony bank is returning the paper checks and not showing that I've paid my bill for those months. 

Ive provided more than 3 times a bank statement with activity from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. This statement details the months checks were returned : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I sent this electronically through the system and also via Fax. No Resolution from Synchrony. 

3 times previously, I've sent Proof of Payment from my Bank ( XXXX  ) for payments I made in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Given the facts above, I sent another payment on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$340.00}. I sent a separate payment of {$110.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. In a cruel twist of irony, this payment was accepted and my XXXX payment of {$110.00} was not accepted. 

I previously provided this proof of payment to Synchrony bank through the message center, which is no longer on the webpage as of today. 

This is the worst customer service Ive ever encountered. For 7 months, Synchrony has not fixed their system and it is causing me undue stress and XXXX

Issue: Closing your account — Can't close your account
Company: CLGF Holdco 1, LLC
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I called to close my credit card because they were raising the interest to an unreasonably high amount and charging a monthly fee. I have paid it off and there is {$0.00} balance. Without any type of verification or checking, the rep immediately said " OK, it's closed '' it seemed suspicious so a couple days later I checked and can still login and the account appears open. I called back and the new rep I got was asking how they could help etc. When I said I wanted to verify it was close, he immediately said, " Yes, your account is closed. '' he never took any time to look things up and before that point was treating it like the account was open. 

This has made me very nervous. They never even said I would get a verification in the mail, which seems to be the norm. The whole thing seems shady and makes me not trust them. But they won't actually close the account.

Complaint narrative:
I called CITI bank to settle a XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card debt. They couldn't find the debt as it was sold to a collection agency. So I called a firm claiming to handle the debt. I was transferred to a man named XXXX at XXXX. I offered to settle to debt. I made a offer of 30 % of what they claimed I owed. He put me on hold several times He acted like he was sick. He came back twice without any counter offer and said his supervisor told him he can't settle the debt. So I am writing to you as I want to settle the debt but I can't negotiate against myself. This was a good faith effort to settle and pay this debt. I am trying to buy my XXXX home ever and I need this cleaned up in order to get the loan for the home If they won't work with me how am I suppose to move forward? I have attached the name of the companies involved in the paperwork I have been sent. Now that I have started to look for a home they are harassing me to pay this debt in full I don't fee this is fair because for the last 12 years I didn't even know this debt was hanging out there until now. I appreciate any help you can give me on this. I really want to settle the debt and move on. Thank you.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I spoke with the XXXX Florida branch manager ( on XXXX ), XXXX, and he said that the bank provided notices, through the bank states and not through formal notices, that the bank was going to start charging a fee for XXXX. I do not think it is a fair practice to start charging the fee and only announce the fee on the bank statements. The bank has a process of notifying customer, through notices, that the bank is going to start charging a fee. I did not get a notice and I do not think the bank was fair about this. I went in and tried to close the account as soon as the fee hit to see if I could be refunded and the branch manager refused. This is not a sound and fair practice from Chase and I am disappointed.
