The Citizens One number we hold is 1-800-747-8155, a United States line for borrowers, and written contact runs through the account you signed in to when the loan was taken out. Before you call, have the loan or account number, the dates and amounts of the payments in question and your most recent statement in front of you, because a servicing case is worked from the payment history rather than from a description of it.

Check the name at the top of that statement first. Citizens One was the lending brand of Citizens Bank and the brand has since been consolidated, and loan books are also transferred to other servicers part way through a loan: whoever is named on the current statement is who has to answer. Payments still drawing after payoff? Report it here and we push your complaint out by email, social media and printed letters.

Citizens One was the consumer lending brand of Citizens Bank, used for personal and student loans, vehicle and home finance and installment plans arranged through retailers, particularly for borrowers outside the states where the bank had branches. It was not a separate bank, and the brand has since been folded back into Citizens, which is why citizensone.com points to the main Citizens site.

That matters for a complaint in a practical way: address it to the entity named on your current statement and quote the original Citizens One loan number as well, so the case can be matched to an account opened under the old brand. If your loan was later transferred to a different servicer, keep both names and both account numbers in the letter.

Ask for the payoff figure in writing, with the date it is good through and the daily interest that applies after it, then pay it by a method that leaves a trace and keep the confirmation. A payoff does not switch off a recurring debit: cancel the automatic payment separately with the servicer and with your bank, and check the next two statements to make sure nothing else has drawn.

Ask in the same message for the paid in full letter, and for the lien release or title where the loan is secured on a vehicle. Then look at your credit report about a month later to confirm the balance reads as settled. Raise it with us if any of that goes missing and we keep advising you on what to send next and when to escalate.

Dispute it in writing to the servicer, not on a call, and state four things: the payment date, the amount, what should have happened to it and what actually happened, such as a payment applied to the wrong part of the balance, a duplicate installment, or a debit taken after the loan was cleared. Attach the bank record showing the money leaving your account, and ask for a written response with a case reference.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau accepts complaints about loan servicing in the United States, and errors that reached your credit report can also be disputed with the credit bureaus directly. Start your complaint here and we help you write it in minutes, with the payment dates, the amounts and the payoff paperwork in the one sequence a servicer can act on.

So far consumers reported 1 complaint about Citizens One here, too few to show a clear pattern yet. Our research shows what typically goes wrong with lenders and loan servicers: payments that post late or land against the wrong part of a balance, automatic payments that keep drawing after a payoff, duplicate charges on a monthly installment, payoff quotes and lien releases that take weeks to produce, servicing that transfers to another company mid loan, and credit report entries that do not match what the borrower expected.
