Citibank Bank Account Or Service Complaint

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management California

To whom this may concern, I opened a Citibank Account Package with Regular Checking account online on -/-/- with the promo code CZPE with a promotional bonus offer of $400.00. After spending weeks unsuccessfully trying to access my existing Citibank online account due to Citibank online account conflict issue with their credit card account system, I was finally able to submit an opening deposit of $15000.00 on Thursday, -/-/-. However, their system did not process the deposit and showed a deposit date of -/-/-. I immediately called Citibank about the delay and was assured that the -/-/- deposit date will NOT affect my eligibility claim as they do not process deposits over the weekend. I was told that since -/-/- was on Saturday, the cut off date is the next business day which is Monday, -/-/-. 90 days later, I 've contacted Citibank again and was told that the bonus should actually arrive on -/-/- which is 120 days after the initial deposit ( 30 days of meeting deposit minimum and 90 days to be credited ). Now it 's been more than 120 days and I 've contacted them again, and was told that I 'm not eligible for the promotion although false information was given to me the previous times that I 've contacted them. I am very concern that a major bank will outright tell lies to consumers by providing incorrect statements. This is not acceptable for a major bank institution. I have kept records of online chat sessions with Citibank and taken notes of all calls and phone inquires. I have not been able to get anywhere with my direct interactions with Citibank due to misinformation being provided me and lack of escalation options. I need your assistance in supporting my claim on this matter and bring this to the attention of the public, so others wo n't get misled by this institution and their deceptive practices. Thank you.
