He was walking slightly ahead of his aunt when they arrived at Gringotts. He entered and walked up to a teller, his aunt behind him.

"Sir, I would like access to my vaults. I do not have my key, so I need to have one created based on my blood." Harry said confidently.
"Here are the forms for your request. See Sliphook in Vaults and Securities when they are complete." said the goblin as he passed a packet of papers over to Harry. "You can use a customer desk," he indicated small desks set up along one side of the wall.
"Thank you, sir," replied Harry and hurried off with his aunt to the desks, leaving a surprised goblin behind him.
Five minutes later, Harry and his aunt were in Sliphook's office, door closed and magically sealed.

That should heal in just a second. Okay, let's see what you've got!"exclaimed the goblin, clapping his hands together.
"Oh my! Oh my!"exclaimed Sliphook as the parchment just kept scratching and scratching, filling itself with tiny, intricate writing. Finally, it stopped.
