have nothing bad to say about Citi bank. got several credit cards with them, a line of credit, as well as my mortgage. customer service is always good on the phone and the wait is usually short at all hours of the day. if they had local branches where I live, I would definitely open a checking and savings account with them as well.

Citibank may be different elsewhere but in Karachi Pakistan, Citibank Managers of Credit Collection & Personal Loan Department are nothing but cheap hoodlums. Even if you are an old customer and have been paying off your installment regularly for years, and even if you have sent prior intimation regarding temporary financial difficulties, just miss a couple of installments and you will get several hundred calls a week from some very nasty people. They will intimidate, threaten, embarrass, ridicule and nag you to death. Yes, a few people have committed suicide due to goons sent by banks to their homes and offices. This is what is being blatantly practiced by Citibank and ABN Amro. Instead of taking legal action, these banks send in their hoodlums for debt collection. This practice is rife in Karachi, Pakistan and must be stopped. It is unethical, immoral and illegal.

i have a checking and savings account with citibank along with a number of their credit cards and i've been really happy with their service. i love how everything can be connected (credit card balances can be shown on your checking webpage) and their thankyou network rewards program is really good (although it has gone down over the years).

I've been with Citibank for over 8 years and have been a very happy customer. It's one of the more international banks, which is very helpful in case anything happens while you're traveling - like losing a wallet (which is what happened to me)

Citibank offers good service and good rates. I have a checking and a money market account that pays interest as high as any internet bank.

I really like Citibank, I've been using them for almost 5 years. I have Checking, Money Market & Checking Plus with them. The Checking Plus is a big help in avoiding fees due to "Oops, I forgot about that check." Save one or two minor issues, i've never had any problems!
