[Resolved]  Citibank Credit Cards — Citibank registered me as a negative customer with CIBIL

Hi,

I have been a customer with citibank for 5 years now, and i was holding a citibank gold credit card.
13 months ago, there was an outstanding of 2 lakhs on my account, which the bank offered to convert into an EMI for 24 months (charging me an extra interest, hence not a settlement) and close the card.
I agreed to the same, keeping in mind not to spoil my credit records with the bank.
A year later now, i have paid 13 EMI on time every month, however i came to know that CITIBANK has reported my name in CIBIL as a bad credit customer and has noted this balnce conversion to EMI, as a "WRITE OFF". During the EMI offer, i was never told that this would be considered as a write off.
Due to this, i have not been able to get any other loans or credit cards in the past year.
I have called their customer care a million times, spoken to a billion reps and have been told that my name is reflecting in their records as positivie, which is clearly not true.
I have no clue whom to contact or what to do , since i am about to apply from a home loan, and dont want it to get rejected on these false grounds.

Please advise.

Please aaproach CIBIL to get your report, it can be obtained by paying 142 rupees DD, check cibil site for more details, if the write off is from CITI bank then you have all the right to get it rubbed off
