Consumer Narrative
I have had the Citi Bank Costco Visa Card for 9 years. I have never missed a payment. I have built up a large credit line. On XX/XX/XXXX I logged in to my mobile app to find my account had been closed. I called customer service to try and understand why and they stated it was because of a missed payment. However, I never missed a payment with them. They stated that a credit bureau reported I missed a payment elsewhere. I reached out to all three credit agencies to try and understand where I missed a payment and there were no missed payments reported. I reached out to all credit products I have and there were no missed payments. I then called back Citi Bank and submitted a reopen request. They denied it because of a missed payment ( which never occurred ). I then submitted a second reopen request, to which they denied it based off of " substantional number of debts owed to other creditors. At this point I was so frustrated and fatigued I was ready to give up. I made my final payment and called to check on the status of my cash rewards on the card, totaling around {$2800.00} on the year which was to be issued to me following the closing of my XXXX statement. They told me that because my account is closed my rewards would not be issued to me. They stated I had exhausted all internal appeals processes. I feel that, because of my substantial rewards for the year, Citi invented a reason to close my account simply because they did not wish to pay my rewards. I want my account reopened and I want my rewards certificate.
