Company decreased limit by XXXX XXXX dollars before statement period after paying the credit card down substantially.

Issue: Closing on a mortgage — 
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX my wife & I went to the local PNC bank branch to close a home equity line of credit. While reviewing the terms of the loan, the stated rate on the disclosures was different than what was disclosed over the phone, but the promotional rate ( half of the current variable rate of was correct ). It was determined that our loan officer misquoted our variable rate by about 1/2 percent ( per recorded phone call ). We left the office for the bank to verify this and retuned 1 couple hours later. We signed the loan documents and left the office. We drew {$4000.00} off of the line of credit and noticed the promotional rate was not awarded. I contacted the bank on or around XXXX and after multiple calls was told that I was not offered the promotion rate and no disclosure for promotion was in our file. I called to complain & was told no recorded phone calls were found and there was nothing they could do about it. I then posted something to social media on XXXX and was contacted immediately by PNC bank. After many back and forth emails, PNC admitted they had a recorded phone call stating the promotional rate was offered to me on XXXX. Their solution was to back date the promotion agreement to XXXX and start the promotional rate from that date. Our line of credit is for {$300000.00} and we were not able to pull the much-needed funds off of the line for over 2 months because of this. This seems unethical & unlawful. Also... All of my phone calls with them were recorded.

This credit bureau has violated 15 USC 1681i and 15 USC 1681e. Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

After my dispute of the accuracy of these accounts, the furnishers falsely verified the information to be true instead of deleting the accounts from my credit report. This is will non-compliance and I now have a claim under the FCRA with civil liability under 15 US Code 1681n
