Citibank denied a 9-11 responder’s use of his credit card for cancer treatment medications early Monday morning despite the credit card holder having both available balance and a zero balance on his Citibank Double Cash Card. The charges were flagged as fraud despite the pre-warning the charge would be coming.

Citi was contacted prior to the provider attempting to use his credit card and notated the account, but moments later when he tried to use his charge card it was denied.
