Citibank...why must you do this? :(

Nope postpaid, but it is a dealer account from my work.

Ah so it is billed, but not to your name. That might be the issue.

The phone number is billed to my name but with a corporate discount.

Update - Got the letter and all is resolved.

This verification is for your own protection. Citi is looking out for you. 

Once you close the loop on verification, things should be better.  Hopefully that verification is just the one letter.  

When did you last change where you live? 

This looks like your first Citi card, or is your Siggy incomplete?

Citi is looking out for Citi. The consumer isn't responsible for fraudulent activity on a card if the consumer had nothing to do with it. And if Citi can't get their money back then Citi is on the hook for the loss. Inconvenience for you is much better for Citi than lost income and theft.

Interestingly enough, the only card I've ever had hacked is my Citi Premier. I never got flagged before the hack and have never been flagged since. I have multiple Citi products with multiple authorized users.

Hi there! What was in the letter? This just happened to me

[ridgebackpilot]

I agree Citi is a major PITA. The only reason I have a Citi card at all is that I shop and buy gas at Costco. Were it not for that, I probably wouldn't be a Citi customer at all.

I want to know too, but alas, OP's latest visit here was 3 months ago.

The letter may end up in the warehouse with the Lost Arc.

Overall citi is awful at least in my experience. Even my merrick rebuilder card treated me better than citi. Others may have a better experience but I'll never apply for another citi card
