Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, my card was fraudulently charged {$580.00} and was immediately notified by Citibank. I called and canceled the card and raised a dispute that this is a fraudulent charge. 

The bank closed the case and made me liable. They then took the money out of my debit card which is unacceptable. 

I have tried calling many times to dispute this decision and get the money back asap but it seems next to impossible. 

Its taken 1 month + to get this resolved.

Complaint narrative:
Capital One sent me a card and it was a credit limit of {$300.00}! When I tried to use it, it declined. I called the company and asked why and the representative said, because I didn't meet their standards! How didn't I meet their standards, but they sent me a Capital One credit card! They got over on me and I will reach out to the attorney general, due to my credit being ran, deception and discrimination. I can not be denied credit due to the law. I even sent a Adverse Action, letter according to the law! And I still was denied credit. According to the law, Adverse Action 15 USC 1681 ( d ) ( 6 ) - is the law that they need to read. It is ILLEGAL TO BE DENIED, BUT yet.. they ran my credit... and was still denied! This is a LAW THAT WAS BROKEN! AND CAPTIAL ONE Frauded and discriminated against me, because I was an applicant. Therefore, banks are required by LAW TO provide funding! The have revoked my rights as a citizen and have broke the law! These acts have cause defamation of character and denial of credit! These are some of the damages that Capital One has done! That said, actual damages to my credit report has cause serious issues to my livelihood, because of their negligent which is a violation! These issues are under the FCRA and ought to be handled accordingly. I was basically discrimination against, 15 USC Code 1691 ( a ). It shall be unlawful for any creditor to discriminate against any applicant, with respect to any ASPECT OF CREDIT TRANSACTION.

IN ADDITION, ACCORDING TO THE LAW ... 1002.4 GENERAL RULES.

Discrimination. A creditor shall not discriminate against an applicant on a prohibited basis regarding ANY aspect of a credit transaction. The Law speaks of creditworthiness, administration of accounts, and treatment of delinquent or slow accounts. 

This should also be taken up with the Attorney General and the FTC and Banking Institution, because Capital One is operating in FRAUD!

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Per 15 USC 1681a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) of the FCRA, a " consumer report '' explicitly excludes " report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. '' Yet, transactions from my account were reported negatively, exclusively involving interactions between myself and your corporation. This unequivocally runs afoul of the aforementioned FCRA provision. 
In accordance with XXXX compliance standards, I request that you promptly provide me with the XXXX compliance disclosure governing the reporting of transactions to a consumer reporting agency. 
Furthermore, I insist upon the immediate removal of the transactions reported in as late from my consumer reports, as they flagrantly violate federal law. I must stress that my inquiry does not concern validation or verification, and I expect no further delay in addressing these urgent matters.

I also draw your attention to 15 USC 1666b ( a ), which explicitly prohibits a creditor from treating a payment on a credit card account under an open-end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. In light of this provision, I reiterate my demand for the expeditious removal of the above-mentioned transactions from my consumer reports.
