Citibank Credit card department,
Customer service / Customer relations California
I was attempting to pay - of my credit card invoices. Instead of being greeted with the normal payment screens I was instead forced to verify my payment source before I could make the payments. This was the same day that the payment was due and I was n't at home and did n't have my checkbook with me to get the routing number and account number. I did n't want to be late so I input the information from memory and some portion of the information was incorrect. I received a call from the company fours days later asking me for payment which I paid the same day. I was then charged fees for making the mistake and my online bill pay service is now suspended. My questions are why would a company need to verify a customers payment source that has not changed in over a decade, why would they need to do it when I 'm under pressure to get the payment in on time and if I wanted to change the payment source would n't that be up to me to do before trying to make a payment? I think this was a trap set by the company to lure me in to making a mistake and then charging me extra fees for it.
