Citibank transition from american express to citibank via costco

This transition was and is a fraud. I had no intentions to sustain my membership with Costco.However, all without my knowledge, Costco opened an account in my name with CitiBank then charged my membership to this card I did not know existed. I had no idea I was doing business with Citibank so I was discarding all their mail as spam. Since I didn't know I had such a card I had no idea there was a charge on it. It finally went delinquent. I found out about this when I tried to pick up a zero interest card. They had even dinged my credit. I signed no document to open a charge account. I had verified no credit card for use. I had no communications with Costco or American Express.

This is a con, a fraud. If they received no response from me they should have stopped all those transaction until they heard from me. They were so desperate to assure a 100% transition that they defrauded us of money and credit. I plan on contacting the Sate Attorney General's office.

Citibank late charges/interest charge

On 8/21/2016 I set up auto pay and received confirmation that Citi Bank had received the auto pay information. Today when reviewing my account I see that I've been charge a late charge and an interest charge. I waited 20 minutes to talk to someone who told me that I didn't set up auto pay and was of no help. In over 38 years I have never been charged a late charge or an interest charge on a credit card. If this had been American Express, I'm sure they would have removed both the late charge and interest charge.
I now have to decide if I should stop using this card. I am also going to complain to Costco and ask that my investment person from Morgan Stanley not invest any more of my money into Citi Bank.

Citibank citibank credit card - citi dividend world mastercard

Over the past approximately six months, I have had problems receiving my mail. Six or seven credit card statements and my homeowner's insurance bill were not delivered. This resulted in late fees plus interest charges on the credit cards and my homeowner's insurance being cancelled.

I spoke with my local post office twice in person and the Delivery Supervisor there said she would talk to my carrier and correct the situation. I also emailed the USPS about this problem I was having.

I thought the situation was resolved until recently I received another late fee and interest charge on another Citibank credit card statement. This time I called the USPS and filed a formal complaint and was contacted by a Public Affairs specialist who contacted my local post office again which verified they were aware of both me and my situation. The specialist said she got the Delivery Supervisor's supervisor involved and would run a 10-day test on my mail to verify things were being delivered as they should.

As soon as I learned of the late fee being charged to my Citibank credit card, I called Citibank to tell them what happened. The representative I spoke with first said that it would be no problem to refund the late fee and interest charge so I paid the difference between the statement balance and the late fee plus interest charges on the spot. Only at the end of the call did the representative make it seem like there might have to be someone named an Account Services person to review/approve the late fee/interest charge refund--that it was not going to be done as he had said before.

While waiting the three to five days for Citibank to review my account, I signed up for online statements via email and for text alerts on my cell phone so I would know when new statements were ready (in case my Citibank credit card statement was not delivered again) and so I would know if my statement was overdue.

When I contacted Citibank again, I was told that I would definitely have to pay the late fee plus interest charges, despite my statement not having been delivered to me and actually having had been returned to Citibank (which they verified, despite the address being 100% correct).

Despite my explanations to Heather, a supervisor in the call center in Maryland, the lengths I had gone through to get my mail delivery problems corrected, to pay my bill in full as soon as I was made aware of the bill, and to set up alerts for new statements so that I wouldn't miss another payment date again in the future. Her response was that Citibank had made a business decision not to waive any more late fees period and that was that. So harsh!

I advised her of my 11-year tenure with Citibank, my mortgage with CitiMortgage and my almost perfect credit score, but she was not swayed. And when I went back and looked at the first time this happened a few months ago (first statement not received in mail, late fee charged, Citibank agreed to waive fee), I noticed that while Citibank had said they would waive the late fee, they actually did not do it. I could find nowhere in subsequent statements a credit for the $25 late fee. Of all the dirty tricks -- to tell a customer they would credit you with a $25 late fee charge and then not to do it (without informing you). This is despicable!

Also of note, I had six other credit card statements and a homeowner's insurance bill not delivered, too, resulting in my homeowner's insurance being cancelled. Other companies were willing to work with me regarding late fees and interest charges, but not Citibank. They were they only ones who were completely inflexible.

With the exception of lying to me, I do not know who is right in this situation because the USPS is the real culprit here, but I would like to complain about Citibank’s dishonesty and inflexibility in this matter. I did what I could on my end to improve the situation, so it seems like they should do the same on their end and work with me a little, too.

Citibank credit card

We missed the fine print to ALSO link our checking account to the new Citi card. I think thousands are also in the same boat.

Today, after several exchanges with Citi to clear up this and schedule a fund transfer on 22 Aug 2016 my wife found her card was blocked. This was due to a ~ $50.00 payment missed (due to the bank transfer not having been effected for Citi as noted above). In my TELCONs with Citi I was assured that, now, all was OK. Apparently not.

To further compound the confusion, I did use the card earlier this week. Why did that work if it was invalid?

Why, if I can use the card, is my wife's rejected?

I assume you (Costco) may be reviewing the situation, at least I hope you are.

Grrrrrrrr!

Tony

Anton R. Pierce, unhappy

Citibank the costco credit card

I cancelled it as the interest was excessive, $40 some dollars on a $280 purchase. I'm not sure what you negotiated that was improved over Amex. Generally I have found that COSTCO is a good consumers advocate, but it was a big fail in this case.

Citibank contested credit card charges

This is regarding a recent contest of a bill from the Local Toyota Service Dept.

This is outrageous

I questioned a bill

Because the Toyota dealer charged me for A C Repairs twice

They had verbally agreed top refund the first bill
For work that was done wrong

Your Citi investigation, basically is to ask the Toyota dealer
If they wanted to get paid twice

And they said “YES”

This is NO investigation
This is NOT a BILLING DISPUTE RESOLVED
Not the kind of response we used to get from AMEX

Please do a proper investigation and issue the credit

Citibank costco credit card

It has been a month and a half since the credit card change and I have STILL not received my card. I have called multiple times, been stuck on hold for hours, had to change my address/information twice because the first time wasn't "permanent" (wtf?), never received a statement, still didn't receive a card, finally received a statement Monday! (Aug 1) (still no card) saying my account was past due, with a letter from the vice president saying my account was past due and may be suspended soon. They never tried to contact me for any problems, like something was wrong with my address, or there may be a security threat. Since my card is past due it's affecting my credit score. I called to see if they could do anything and was told "Yeah, but you weren't charged a late fee for June, so what's the problem?" The problem is I never received anything until this week about my card, and I still haven't received my card. At least have the decency to overnight ship it and remove the past due notice. I am beyond angry about this whole situation. I am never recommending Citibank or the Costco credit card to anyone if this is how they deal with problems. They are completely useless.

Citibank relationship manager for citigold

I have been a Citigold UK customer since 2012. Each time I contact my relationship manager by email, I can only get a response from him after sending him 3-4 reminders. On average, I need to wait 5 working days before receiving a reply (the worst one being over 10 working days for reviewing portfolio). My queries are mostly simple, such as request for information concerning ISA.

I don't think it is an issue of the particular relationship manager I have. I had the same challenge with my previous relationship managers. I assume that relationship managers are overworked. However, it is not a good excuse to leave a customer waiting in silence when they are eager to hear back. They could at least send some acknowledgement or better still, informing me how long I am supposed to wait for his reply if it takes more than 5 working days to respond.

I am starting to look for a bank that offers premier account service since I am so disappointed with Citigold customer services.

Citibank general service & dispute

They have horrible customer service and do not value their customers. Ridiculous paperwork to file a disputed charge and no call backs and email as they claim. They mad an error and requested the wrong amount of credit for my dispute after I submitted all the paperwork and now I need to redo it because of their error. American Express has never done this and was always helpful and courteous to me. None of this fax in paperwork to get it credited on the statement and handled the same day or next. When I asked to speak to a manager she said there's nothing they can do except wait for the investigator and resubmit. I expressed my concerns to how Citibank handles things and their customer service staff is unpleasant and unhelpful and that they should really reconsidered their operations but even she didn't sound like she cared. Just fake apologies. I also asked her to verify that they had my correct email address on file for contact and she advised she could not read it to me even after they already verified my identity. Then I asked her how she would verify that they would not make another error with my claim amount and all she said she would check it tomorrow but originally she told me she could not help me with the claim. I then proceeded to let her know that if they keep up this attitude and manner of service that I would cancel my credit card with them and she advised that was up to me. American Express makes a point to let their customers know they value them. The manager's name was Kathy from South Dakota. Once they correct this error if they do, I am cancelling my account with them and maybe even Costco for not doing much about this horrible company. American Expressed already has an offer that credited a basic annual membership at Sam's Club so I only paid the taxes for it. I am so disappointed in Citibank and Costco. Costco should re-evaluate their contract with Citibank because they will cause them to lose customers and business.

Citibank payments work different than most credit cards

1) card doesn't work at gas station (Cust service told me to put it in slow and remove slow) as they are having issues
2) if you set up auto pay, you can't choose pay balance, you have to choose pay statement balance, so if you return something, you still have to
Pay citi for it and it will appear on a credit the next month, so they use your money for a month
3) auto pay set up requires you to make a min payment same day, then takes 2 cycles to set up, but you can't go back in same day and pay the
Balance that is due the next month cause your first payment has to post first
This is bs, am ex was always seamless - costco is going to loose a lot of customers because of citi's poor business
Practices!

Citibank costco card

Just talked to citi; they took my credit account from american express. My interest rate at amex was 15%; they immediately jacked it up to 27.5%.

I have a high balance which will cost me thousands!

I've been a big fan of costco; but this is ridiculous! I will close my citi bank card - what a rip off!

Citibank credit card

I did not receive my business card, AMEX expired and I have had numerous problems as a result. Called to get a new card and it took 2 weeks for action. Called again after one week and now finally have received 3 cards (!). ...two had the same credit card number but different costco account numbers and different pictures of me, the third is a totally new account number. This is ridiculous - plus it really makes me wonder what is going to happen with the billing etc. Pls check into this soonest. I look to COSTCO for quality - this is not it.

Citibank - not downloadable to quickbooks

The new Citi Card is not downloadable to QuickBooks - mainly only Quicken. Also, it appears that unless you sign up for paperless billing you cannot even view the statement on-line. The rewards are fine but when I have to spend a significant amount of time entering the transactions into QuickBooks, it is not worth it. American Express was downloadable and...

Citibank best buy visa

Let me start by saying I am a 10 yer customer of thi s card on autopay so there is no history of late payments and they earn money off my interest (Albeit a relatively small balance). So today I go online to check my account balance and I notice that it appears like my account is cancelled. ($0 available balance even though not near limit). I call to verify and they abruptly cancelled my account due to something else that showed up on my credit report. What the heck kind of business practice is that? Why would a company cancel a long term customer in good standing with no history of problems and which they are making money off of? The main reasons this upsets me are a. The tenure of this account was good for my credit rating and b. The payment history of this account was good for my credit rating. Now my avg age of accounts will drop and potentially negatively impact my credit which I am trying hard to repair!

These days credit is hard to get due to all the deadbeats. For something to show on your credit report, it has to be at least 2 months behind since credit reports run 30 days behind. So when you show late 30 days, you are in reality 60-90 days late. That is a problem for lenders, since they know this.

i understand that they are entitled to, but i always figured that was written in for cases where someone was becoming a problem - i.e constantly late on payments, asking for credit increases, etc. i was neither of these. i was a revenue stream which cost them nothing - i never called their call centers, i uses paperless billing, i used autopay...i just dont understand the logic.

What kind of business practice is that? That is standard credit practice that has been in effect for decades. Any lender who loans you money, or extends credit to you, is entirely permitted, by law, to decide they no longer want to loan you any more money. They can choose to close your card at any time. It is in the credit agreement you singed when you got the card. Even a bank can choose to close a line of credit if your credit report begins to show negative actions. It is called a free market.

Imagine it like this: you loan money to a friend. Then loan more money to that friend. Do you think you have the right to decide to stop giving money to this friend? Banks and credit lenders have the same right. It is the law.

Citibank wrong information and bad customer experiance

I am writing you today to explain my dissatisfaction & bad customer experience in your respectable Citi Bank Egypt I am the owner of TITANIUM Master Card Credit I went to Citi Bank branch “Mostafa El Nahas” on date 10 Nov 2015 to deactivate my credit card The agent there told me that I have to pay all amount on the card in order to deactivate + she didn’t have the system that calculate the total amount especially that the card have interest because of delay in payment I told her that I need to know the total amount “NOW” to settle the card & deactivate it She direct me to the CS (16677) as they can know the total amount to settle the card & deactivate it I phoned the mentioned CS on 10 Nov 2015, an agent answered me & I asked him to know the “TOTAL” amount on the credit card to settle & deactivate it He answered that I have to pay 20, 710 L.E. as this is the total amount required on the credit card to settle & deactivate it then to call them again after 12 am so that the amount can be reflected on the system & issue a deactivation request I told him are you sure from this amount & he answered yes I am sure (please listen to the phone call on that date, I phoned the CS from [protected]) Also I request a certificate mentioning that I have successfully deactivate the credit card & he answered that I have to pay another 60 L.E. to issue such certificate I paid on that day 20, 710 L.E. + 60 L.E. = 20, 770 L.E. (Please check the attach Receipt) I phoned the CS again on date 11 Nov 2015 to issue a deactivation request, the agent replied that the process will take 5 days & during these 5 days an agent will phone me to complete the process of deactivation request No one phoned me & I phoned them again today 16 Nov 2015 & asked to deactivate the card They direct me to one of the retention agents “Rawya Saif” & after verifying the data with me she replied that she can’t proceed with the deactivate because the card still have 417 L.E. not paid yet, I told her the above mentioned story & she replied that I can issue a complaint through the call center as she is not concerned with issuing a complaint! Conclusion: • I am not satisfied by the behavior of the collection agents who used to phone me & this is one of the main reason that push me to deactivate your card • I got wrong information from the call center agent who give me a wrong amount to pay in order to deactivate the credit card • No one follow up the deactivation request from the date of issuing the deactivation request 11 Nov till today 16 Nov 2015 • I am not happy with Rawaya’s phone conversation today with me as she is not supportive @ all • I am not happy with the agent behavior “Female” that answered me today & direct me to the retention team • The pending amount (417 L.E.) should be waived as I got wrong info from your respectable side regarding the total amount required to deactivate the credit card • I need the deactivation statement whom I paid 60 L.E. to be issued Thanks & waiting for your valuable feedback ASAP please

Citibank best buy credit card

I have had a best buy credit card for many years, and over those years I have bought many things. I bought a group of phones in 2013 and that was the last purchase I made. My card was closed due to inactivity! How in any sense of marketing does closing a card instill goodwill on any level. Due to this exemplary level of credit interpretation I will have nothing to do with citi bank, as far as best buy goes, I will go in their and look at what I want to buy and go somewhere else and bargain with best buys price! I would think that is the last thing that best buy would like!
