Company: TRUHOME SOLUTIONS, LLC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Since speaking with my Mother several times after the filing of the above referenced complaint. We were told by an employee at TruHome Solutions to cease the payments in XXXX 2016, then they could send the Hardship Application to be completed by myself and Mother. They continued reassuring the both of us that everything was going to plan and should have paperwork completed soon. 
Then XX/XX/XXXX, we were told that they were refusing to honor the Hardship due to somehow having my name, XXXX XXXX XXXX removed from the mortgage. 
They informed us that if they did not receive the three months payment by I believe XXXX XXXX, 2016, they were taking the house away from my Mother. 
I myself, XXXX XXXX XXXX signed the closing paperwork at the main XXXX XXXX XXXX located in XXXX XXXX, MO. I then traveled to XXXX, MO with my realtor XXXX XXXX to witness my Mother sign the exact same paperwork as I did and traveled back with XXXX to present the completed documents to the original employee that helped us at XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
During the time between XXXX XXXX, and the XXXX XXXX, 2016, there was no correspondence from either TruHome Solutions nor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. No statement ( s ) nor a notice of non-payment. No phone calls or letter of possible default. 
Now TruHome Solutions have blocked us from making any payments online. 
There is something very wrong going on here. My Mother also knew I had/was signing the closing paperwork.

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for a citigold account accepting a XXXX thank you points promotional offer that was sent to me. I applied early XXXX and was told that I needed to make a qualifying bill payment 2 months in a row to qualify. I called in early XXXX to confirm the promotion was on my account and that I met the qualifications. I asked when I should receive this, they stated by XXXX XXXX 2016. When I called on XXXX XXXX they said it was actually XXXX XXXX 2016 because it was 90 days after the statement closes of the month that I met the criteria. They said they saw the promotion attached and I needed to wait. Upon calling on XXXX XXXX, they said they had no record of a promotion and none were tied to my account. I submitted a citi investigation and they sent me a communication that I had no offer attached. This was the only reason I signed up.

Issue: Billing statement — 
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Citibank has asked me to " verify my information '' in order to allow me access to my account online so that I can review my billing statements and pay my credit card bills. As I am enrolled in their paperless billing, I do not have an alternative to review and pay accounts. The information that is being demanded is information that does not exist : I do not have an ATM card, I do not have a Checking Account and I do not have a PIN number with Citibank. When I have called in to inquire about this issue, they asked me to wait on the line while they " deregistered '' my account and instructed me to re-register. When I attempted to do I received warning that my account was already registered and to apply for the replacement of my Password and Username. When I attempted to do so I was first greeted with a warning that my account was already registered and to change my password with a challenge question. When I entered that system to change my password and unlock my account, I was greeted with a warning that my account was NOT registered and then asked to register my account. Following those instructions ( again ) gave the same message that my account has already been registered and that I need to login ... which then promptly asked for the Account/PIN and Debit Card numbers which I do not have. 

In the mean time, interest, late fees, penalties and every other charge imaginable I 'm sure is racking up on my account and what 's more, I 'm certain that they are reporting negatively to the bureaus. I 'm attempting to pay my bills, but their call center and their website is preventing me from doing so! 

Given the history of this bank abandoning Texas and continually practicing negatively effecting business against me and others ( reducing credit limits to balances ( increasing balance ratios ) losing customer information ( leading to fraudulent accounts opened ) etc. I 'm not surprise, but certainly am at risk is decrease financial capability because of either technological incompetence on the part of this institution, or a concerted effort to hamper the financial well-being of customers in Texas 's Low-Income Census Tracts.

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for a Citigold bank account after receiving a promotion for XXXX XXXX XXXX points. I called Citi bank to make sure the promotion was on my account. I then proceeded to meet all the criteria which included two bill pays on my account and spending money on my debit card. Once I had met all the requirements I contacted them since I did not see any points added to my account. They informed me that I had met all the requirements and had to wait up to 90 days for them to be posted to my account. I waited the time period, during which I had monthly fees taken out of my account. Once the 90 days were up I contacted Citi again and they informed me I would not be receiving the points. This was a horrible experience and very dishonest of Citi to say I had the promotion and met all the requirements but they were n't upholding their end of the deal.

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, have applied for a loan modification with Citi Mortgage and after 60 days I still have no decision nor do I feel like my application is even being looked at. Today I called in to check the status of my modification and a supervisor in the mortgage assistance unit by the name of XXXX XXXX ID # XXXX told me that there is no time frame for a loan modification review which baffled my mind because to my knowledge they have 30 days after receiving a complete loan modification package to render a decision. I 've been told before by other reps at Citi Mortgage that it takes 30 days and we 're approaching the 30 days and to be patient that there would be a decision. On the Citi Mortgage website specifically on this page https : //www.citimortgage.com/Mortgage/displayHomeOwnerAssistance.do? page=troublepayment it says that a review takes 30 days after a complete package is received. I submitted a complete package on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and confirmed it was received and a review was opened on XXXX/XXXX/2016 by XXXX XXXX at XXXX : XXXX. She is also the assigned specialist on my file. I 'm very upset that a SUPERVISOR would tell me today XXXX/XXXX/2016 after having my complete file for almost 60 days now that there is NO time frame for a loan modification review which seems false to me according to citi mortgage 's own website! This is unacceptable! I 'm falling further and further behind while my file is just sitting on someone 's desk not being looked at, I also do n't appreciate the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX ID # XXXX who claimed to be a supervisor after I asked to be transferred to a supervisor and got XXXX XXXX on the phone that there is NO time frame for a loan modification review. This has shocked me and caused an incredible amount of distress. They say they 're here to help then treat struggling homeowners in desperate need for help like XXXX XXXX XXXX did to me. This is extremely unacceptable and I would like to get the honest truth about if my file is really with an underwriter or not and if so, I would like to be treated fairly and have Citi Mortgage comply as I have with their requests and to give me a decision in a timely manor which they 've failed to do and not only that, they 've added distress to my already difficult situation.

Complaint narrative:
I was approved for the Citibank XXXX credit card in XXXX 2015. The welcome bonus was a {$650.00} credit to be used toward purchasing a phone from XXXX after meeting minimum spending requirements. I did that, and also purchased a phone from XXXX using the special link provided by Citi. That was in XXXX 2015. The {$650.00} credit was supposed to post to my account within a few billing cycles, but never did. I contacted Citibank on numerous occasions, asking them to look into the missing credit. None of those attempts resulted in a positive outcome. 

I 'm attaching the corresponding billing statement. On XXXX/XXXX/2015 there is a transaction for {$810.00}, listed under " Promo Purchase-Offer. '' This is the purchase of the phone from XXXX that should have triggered the credit. All Citi has to do is verify this with the merchant, but they have been extremely unhelpful, even after numerous attempts on my part to resolve the issue. 

Thank you for looking into this. 

Best, XXXX

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I initially reported that I did not make a purchase on a Macys ' card with account number ending XXXX. I told them that I had paid my account in full I was told that I had to complete and submit a Statement of Fraud which they had to USPS mail to me as they do n't have it electronically. They told me once they received that the account would be flagged for fraud and I would not longer receive phone calls ( I was receiving phone calls several times a day asking for payment ). I waited a week and called back again and told them I had not received the Statement of Fraud. She said she would mail it again. I waited another week and finally received it. At that time, I completed the Statement of Fraud and mailed it that same day. I have called several times to check on the status of this and each time they tell me a fraud investigation has been opened. I called again on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and spoke with XXXX and he said it had been resolved and it would be escalated so we can get it off of my credit report as soon as possible. He told me I should receive a letter from Macys ' in 7-10 business days. I asked if he could email it and he said no, they only used USPS. He then said it would take 30 days for the credit bureaus to update my credit report. I also just received a bill for the aforementioned account number and the balance is now almost {$200.00} ( I believe the original amount was {$57.00} ). I also received a letter from Macys ' saying effective immediately my credit balance has been lowered to from {$600.00} to {$200.00}. My credit limit on MY card ( which is a different account number ending in XXXX and has a balance of {$0.00} is {$1400.00}. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to receive a letter from Macy 's and it is still showing on my credit report. Thank you in advance.

XX/XX/XXXX I was diagnosed with XXXX. The insurance paid, however, in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX the payments were late. CITI sent my account to XXXX XXXX XXXX - their internal collection dept. My insurance paid the account bringing it current in XXXX XXXX. XXXX refused to take the account back and I continued to pay XXXX XXXX XXXX as agreed until the account was paid in full in XXXX XXXX. XXXX / One Main Financial has refused to report this. Instead, they are continuously reporting my payment as late and despite multiple disputes via XXXX and XXXX and talking to One Main directly, they have refused to update my credit report showing the account paid if full. My FICO score has now dropped form XXXX to XXXX - all because this shows I am now 120 days late with a balance of over {$5000.00}. I want this resolved as soon as possible. All late payments should be removed. The balance should show XXXX and the account listed as paid in full.

Complaint narrative:
My credit card company ( Mastercard through Citibank ) is claiming I owe them {$1900.00}. This seemed high, since I usually pay at least the full account balance. I downloaded their statement balances through Excel and discovered my total debit comes to {$42000.00}. My total credit comes to {$40000.00}. I should only owe {$1400.00}, a difference of {$510.00}. That 's information using the numbers they 've provided for me. They refuse to acknowledge the discrepancy.

Complaint narrative:
I purchased items on a Best Buy credit card through Citi Bank. I paid my bill before the due date on the first of every month. Eventually those payments began being applied to the previous month and I was charged late fees. Essentially according to Citi I was doubling up on payments. I called and they agreed with what I was saying and removed XXXX of the XXXX late fees. They said they can only remove so many in a year. They then advised me to pay the minimum due, which was higher than normal because of the late fee. They also told me to wait until at least the second of the month which I did. I paid in XXXX on the XXXX per their advice and it still got applied to the previous month XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called and they still gave the same excuse.
