Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
Once I received my Home Depot credit card I was unable to use it. After calling customer service several times I was told I needed a verification code that Citibank was going to mail out to me. Its been more than six months and I have not received the verification code in the mail. When I received the bill it was under a different name. I called the XXXX XXXX customer service and was unable to get anyone to help me. This is very frustrating and disappointing on how XXXX XXXX company is so big and they can not help their customers. Although, I have been paying the bill, I feel very uncomfortable with this situation. I am not sure if the correct account is being credited. I feel like I have been taken advantage and no one seems to care or know how to fix the problem.
