Citibank suddenly closed my Costco Anywhere VISA card after I successfully shopped at Costco gas station by using this card. The closure notification says my account was inactivate but I just used my card! And there is no warning email or mail sent to me in advance to remind me to use the card otherwise it will be closed. 

The attached XXXX statement showed no account close info, but it showed {$69.00} in balance. Why say the card is inactivate? 

By the way, the authorized account user is the Citi Gold client.

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
We have done our banking at National City Bank then ( Name Change to PNC Bank ) for more than 20 years. We choose to close our safe deposit box in XX/XX/XXXX as we were planning to move out of state. We went into to local branch of PNC Bank ( XXXX Illinois XXXX. XXXX, XXXX, IL ) at the end of XX/XX/XXXX and retrieved all of our belongs from our safe deposit box, signed the papers with the teller closing the box and returned the key to the teller. I asked when we would get a refund for the unused time, and she indicated you do not get a refund. I did not agree but choose to move forward and not escalate the matter. Then in XXXX I received a notice indicating on XX/XX/XXXX I will be charge for a renewal ( letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ). I called on XX/XX/XXXX the number on the letter as instructed if any questions and talked to a XXXX. She indicated there was no record of closing the box. After a discussion the matter was escalated, and I was advised a different person would call me back about the situation. On XX/XX/XXXX a different person called me to discuss the matter. She took down information and advised she would call me back the next day after she talked to the branch. Today ( 1 week later ) she called back and indicated nobody in the branch would answer the phone until now ( yes, I said no one would answer the phone at a Bank during normal business hours ) but has now talked to the branch and the box is still open. I need to prove it was closed and send her that information. I could not believe I had to prove I do not have a key to the box and show papers that the bank never gave me, or they will charge my checking account. 

I do not feel the burden of proof is on me, when I have already done everything in XXXX I was supposed to do. The burden of proof is on the bank to prove they have an agreement that has not been cancelled. We signed the signature forms the day we closed it and signed the same forms on that day indicating the box would be closed. 

I would feel it is against the law for a business to bill more than customer for the same box. As I closed the box and they want me to pay and I feel they have re-rented the box to someone else, this would be against the law.

Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Hi, National Credit Systems, they published and are sharing false information, about my credit history with FALSE documents, its causing a lot of damage with these collections that doest exists. 

I've been trying to apply for personal credit and for my business and even though I have great credit the banks weren't approving anything. I then did some research and discovered that since XXXX I have Collections that don't belong to me on my credit, and I am being harmed by this. My credit was from XXXX to XXXX. 
Now, because of National Credit Systems actions, I am paying more for insurance, car loan, and my application for a new job position was denied because of my credit. I need to be a General Contractor, but the license requirements needs a higher them XXXX credit. 
The collection refers to an apartment rental contract, but my name was removed from that contract more than a year ago, I have nothing to do with the open account with the company anymore, I have all the evidence, all the evidence that my name was removed from the contract, and this was reported in my name. 
The worse part, Nacional Credit System has my Collection and its sharing with others agencys of credit but its all false information. NCS is the worse place for debit collection because it hurts a lot my personal credit. 

I had a lot of damage because all this companys did not follow the law, they use false documents, made false affirmations, created false collections, now i have a lot of problems because they did all this.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On or about XXXX Wells Fargo Bank accused me of suspicion of check kiting and froze my checking account. A few years later I discovered the contents of my safe deposit box was sent to California 's unclaimed property department and auctioned off. I received a check for about {$3.00} representing the balance of the auction proceeds after WFB deducted several hundred dollars for drilling the box and shipping it to XXXX. I went to the branch of WFB that had my box. They told me that they didn't know how to contact me and subsequently declared my box abandoned. On or about XX/XX/XXXX I received a check from WFB for {$160.00} and a letter explaining that WFB had made an error when they accused me of check kiting. Receiving a letter from WFB twenty years later proved that they did know how to notify me back in XXXX. 
The {$160.00} was the balance in my checking account when they froze my account over twenty years earlier. I called them and said that this was insufficient compensation. They consequently sent me another check for {$500.00}. I have not chased either check. I told them I want to be compensated for the loss of the contents of my safe deposit box. It contained my father 's WWII war mementos, my childhood coin collection and other valuables. Although the statute of limitations my have eliminated a cause of action concerning my safe deposit box, I only discovered WFB had kept the balance of my checking account and did not apply this toward my box rental fees of {$8.00} a year per contract with WFB when they sent me the letter with a check. Therefore, I believe I have a cause of action with WFB based on this recent discovery.
