Complaint narrative:
This loan is suspected fraudulent I have all the necessary paperwork It is important to remember that I have already tried to resolve this matter. I was told that because of payments being made that it was sufficient enough to determine the outcome. 

Unbeknownst to us bank I have a police report stating the nature of that account. Please see the the two attachments. 

My unlocked cellphone was stolen when I was homeless and my personal information was used without my knowledge to make debits. 

When this was found out the account was close up. 
To add on years later and XXXX still has my information in multi factor authentication linked to the old cellphone in which was stolen, 15 U.S.C. 1691 et seq. prohibits creditors from discriminating against credit applicants on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age, because an applicant receives income from a public assistance program, or because an applicant has in good faith exercised any right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act.

Product: Credit card — Store credit card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023, I went to order a gold necklace from Bloomingdales.com. The order # was XXXX. 

TheBloomingdale's.com website entices customers to open a Bloomingdale 's store credit card and receive 20 % off their order. The exact wording is below and demonstrated in Exhibit # 1 : " Open a Bloomingdale 's Credit Card and take 20 % off your Bloomingdale 's purchases today and tomorrow ( up to a total savings of {$250.00} over the two days ). '' EXHIBIT # 2, also on bloomingdales.com again promises consumers this 20 % off their order if they open a credit card : " Open a Bloomingdale 's Credit Card and take 20 % off your Bloomingdale 's purchases today and tomorrow ( up to total savings of {$250.00} over the two days ). '' EXHIBIT # 2 : https : //www.bloomingdales.com/my-credit/gateway/guest I applied for the bloomingdale 's credit card the same day and was approved. I repeatedly asked the company why my 20 % discount had not bee applied and I was told it was because I provided another credit card for the purchase. However, the website requires consumers to enter a back up credit card. The marketing is deceptive, tricky, unclear and vague

Complaint narrative:
Timeline of Events. 

XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX : Equifax sent out wrong credit report that effected my credit approval. My score went from XXXX to XXXX for XXXX months ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) before being fixed. 

XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : I had a {$27000.00} credit limit with XXXX  in good standing at a {$0.00} balance. I have never had a late payment or missed payment for any of my credit accounts. XXXX took away over 75 % of my credit line for no reason. They also raised the APR on all three cards ( Dividend, Double Cash, Simplicity ) to almost 29.9 % from 14 %. When I talked to a credit representative they verbally said " My credit was not good and that my income was not enough to have this much of a credit line. '' My credit balances on all my other cards has never changed and I was never delinquent on any bills. After hearing this from XXXX, I demanded a letter in writing stating what they told me and they did in fact send me a letter about this incident. I have the letter in my possession and it states something different than what was verbally told to me. 

XXXX. I have 8 major credit cards ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) with a combined credit line of {$100000.00} with only {$15000.00} balance used at a 15 % utilization. When XXXX took away my credit balance with no notice, it put me over a 20-30 % utilization for all my credit all around. This has caused all other credit cards to stop with APR promo financing, stop giving me a credit balance increase, stop from renting a new apartment, and even stopped me from getting a great rate on a new car. 

XXXX. XXXX has avoided mortgages to minorities in the past, they had a XXXX lawsuit regarding failed oversight on consumer percentage rates, and now we have a proposed class action lawsuit against XXXX and Armenian families in California. I truly believe XXXX either used an algorithm to attack my credit because of the hyphen in my last name ( XXXX ) or XXXX reevaluated my account with a bogus credit report from Equifax. They used the bogus report to take away credit and to raise the APR rate. 

XXXX. I truly feel taken advantage of and did not know what to do for the last two years until I saw the lawsuit regarding the algorithm and Armenian families.
