Consumer complaint received 2025-01-08 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Issue : Fraud or Unauthorized Charges Details of the Problem : I am filing this complaint regarding an unauthorized charge and mishandling of my dispute by Citibank. Below are the details : On XX/XX/XXXX, my Citi/AAdvantage Platinum Select credit card was charged three times at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, IL, totaling approximately {$250.00}. These transactions were unauthorized. 

A few days later, I contacted Citibank to dispute these charges. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed that Citibank had given access to my credit card account to my husband without my consent. My husband unknowingly paid my account instead of his own. 

On the same day, I revoked my husbands authorization through the online portal. The next day, I called Citibank to request a new credit card under my name only. Despite my efforts, Citibank failed to issue me a new card. 

I never received any communication from Citibank regarding the status of the dispute, nor did they request further information. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Citibank stating that the dispute was closed because they were unable to contact me, and they refused to reimburse the unauthorized charge. The letter also included a threat to report me to consumer agencies if payment was not received, despite my account being in good standing. 

It appears that Citibank has already deducted the unauthorized charges from my account balance, effectively forcing me to pay for them without my consent or resolution.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Complaint narrative:
I am sure you are aware that it is against the law to threaten suit without any intention of doing so. Therefore, be advised that I am extremely serious about filing suit against your company. I have sent numerous letters requesting for you to investigate and remove all inaccurate information that is being reported on my personal credit profile, yet you continue to fail to do so. 

It is my understanding of the law that you MUST honor each and every request to investigate incorrect information and you seem to have ignored all of my previous requests. That is a crystal clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act which provides a cause of action for an individual consumer as well as penalties and liabilities for both consumer reporting agencies and furnishers of information for non-compliance as violation of its provisions. 

As I stated before, this is my final request for you to do as you are governed by the FCRA. If this final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of the accounts in question, I will be forced to file suit against your company in the county in which I live. That way, you can travel here in order to defend yourselves.
