Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was shopping for my business when all my cards were declined. I have five business accounts with Citibank and initially thought it was a security error. I asked the banker to check it, but I didnt pay much attention at the time. However, on the next business day, all our billing, wires, and checks bounced.

I reached out to the bank and they informed me that my accounts had been closed without any prior notice, and that they had held the funds without permission. They stated that they would mail us a check for the balance of each account. This situation has severely damaged my business 's reputation and has caused significant issues for us and everyone involved.

I did not authorize the listed inquiries nor do I recognize the accounts being reported. I demand that you provide verifiable documentation, including my wet-ink or electronic signature authorizing these tra
nsactions. Failure to provide such proof constitutes a willful violation of FCRA and raises serious concerns about your compliance with Metro 2 data reporting standards, which mandate the accurate, complete, and fully substantiated reporting of consumer data.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute several unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ). 
After reviewing my recent credit report, I have identified the following inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX TRANSUNION XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX TRANSUNION XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX TRANSUNION Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) states that I have the right to dispute any inaccurate or incomplete information on my credit report. I request that you investigate these unauthorized inquiries and remove them from my credit report.

Section 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) grants me the right to access all information in my file, including the inquiries made. After reviewing this information, I firmly believe that the inquiries listed above should not be on my report.

Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) defines the permissible purposes for obtaining credit reports. I did not give my consent for these inquiries to be made, and I can not find a permissible purpose under this section that justifies their presence on my report.

Request I request an immediate investigation into the listed inquiries. If it is determined that these inquiries were made without my authorization or in error, I ask that they be removed from my credit report. I also request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once the necessary corrections have been made.

Enclosed is a copy of my identification to verify my identity.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Please confirm receipt of this letter and keep me informed of the progress of your investigation.
