Consumer complaint received 2024-09-13 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX XXXX I took out a {$2000.00} cash advance on my Citibank credit card. I made payments of {$1000.00} on XX/XX/2024, and {$1000.00} on XXXX XXXX XXXX to reduce the balance, but I noticed discrepancies in how Citibank applied these payments, particularly to the cash advance balance, which has a higher APR. 

I contacted Citibank by phone on XX/XX/2024, to resolve the issue, but their response was unsatisfactory. On XX/XX/2024, I sent a formal written dispute to Citibank, requesting a breakdown of how my payments were applied and how interest was calculated. Citibank 's response, dated XX/XX/2024, failed to provide the necessary details or clear calculations. 

Due to the lack of transparency in their response, I escalated the matter to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ( OCC ). The OCC reviewed my complaint and subsequently referred it to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) for further handling. 

I am seeking a thorough review of how Citibank applied my payments and calculated interest, as I continue to observe significant discrepancies in the amounts stated on my account.
