Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I was buying a bulk of groceries through XXXX XXXX app and decided to use Citizens Pay as I didn't have the full amount to pay up front. When I went to check out and my order was ready I realized the order was in a different state ( XXXX ) when I live in XXXX. I called the XXXX XXXX 's and advised them if they can cancel the order since there will be no way for me to pick up a different order in a different state. They canceled the products and I have proof on my app showing this. I have called both XXXX XXXX and Citizens to get this issue resolved for 2 months now because this incident occurred XX/XX/2023. I have a case for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and a escalated case for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The last I heard and keep hearing from both companies is that this will be fixed. The fine line print for XXXX is 3-5 business days to receive back my credit or refund on card if used by card. I have received nothing and citizens bank credit line back to par. This has damaged my credit by XXXX points and regret to say has been a terrible problem and has yet to be fixed. My total order for this was {$310.00} and to this very day is still showing I owe this amount. I have reached my limit of patience of this getting resolved and have no were to turn to because I am not receiving any answers for this to be resolved.
