Citibank Credit Card Complaint

Unsolicited issuance of credit card

Citibank Credit card department,

Unsolicited issuance of credit card Pennsylvania

Costco sold their - - credit card to Citibank. We did not want a Citibank card so we changed our - - card to a different account. We did not request or authorize Citibank to issue us a card or account but apparently they did it any way. We never received the cards. Instead we received a bill for an unauthorized charge by - auto club. We noted that - also sent an unauthorized charge to our - -. We contacted -, they refunded their charge to our - -. We contacted Citibank about the duplicate charge and they investigated and agreed that it was a duplicate unauthorized charge. After multiple and multiple phone calls, Citibank still has not removed the duplicate charge. We assumed that it was taken care of when statements stopped coming, but now suddenly a statement comes in the mail after months of not being received in the mail telling us that the account is past due with absurd late charges. WE DID NOT REQUEST A CITIBANK CREDIT CARD AND DID NOT AUTHORIZE - TO MAKE A CHARGE TO THE ACCOUNT. WE NEVER RECEIVED THE CARDS AND NEVER HAVE USED THE ACCOUNT. CITIBANK WAS TOLD TO CLOSE THE ACCOUNT AND REMOVE THE DUPLICATE CHARGE ON MULIPLE OCCASIONS, BUT THIS HAS NOT BEEN DONE. NOW OUR CREDIT REPORT IS SHOWING LATE PAYMENTS FOR AN ACCOUNT AND CHARGE THAT WAS NEVER AUTHORIZED OR USED.
