Consumer Narrative
My Citi Credit Card payment on XX/XX/XXXX, was XXXX I made a mistake forward a check in the amount of XXXX. When I realized that I made this mistake I chatted with CITI at that time requested that the payment be returned to my checking account. this was XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, from the customer Service Team this letter stated " If this payment is refunded, your balance will over your assigned credit limit. If you want us to send a refund, please call us. Take into account that my minimum payment was XXXX which was it seems that Citi Card was holding my money hostage the XXXX refunded to me was my funds not Citi Card how is it possible legally to use my funds to exceed the limit. Citi Card reduced my credit limit after I made a XXXX in XXXX, they also stop all cash advance. When I made this error XX/XX/XXXX, Citi Bank took the same action against me for reason unknown my account was paid on time usually schedule. I question Citi Card authority to review my account twice in the 2 past years each when I was within my contract, as mentioned before I have never missed or been late on a payment. I presently have a dispute with Citi concerning this issue I am waiting for Citi Card response. I filed my dispute with the CEO in New York. I want to file a complaint against Citi Card for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Citi Card send misinformation that I am over credit limit to each Credit Reporting Agency. This information is lowered my credit score. I feel that is s violation of my Civil Rights along with Racial Bias based on my AGE XXXX XXXX XXXX Race XXXX XXXX XXXX
