Despite significant reprimands from the government, Citibank continues to screw its customers over. I am foolish enough to hold a mortgage with them, for which I pay over {$1200.00}!! PER MONTH in interest ... yet earlier this year, Citibank decided they needed to charge me {$30.00} per month for a checking account which I barely use. When I went to the branch manager to discuss the fact that I had been with the bank for over XXXX years, and that I was paying {$1200.00} in mortgage interest monthly, he refused to waive my monthly checking fee, and instead offered me a " basic '' checking account - XXXX which charges me {$15.00} for overdraft ( despite the line being attached, and which used to automatically cover overdrafts - which is what a line of credit was designed for ) and for every other " service '' they offer. The branch manager " explained '' to me that my mortgage balance did n't count because it was with a " different '' division of Citibank ... in other words, since the P & L was n't under the control of the bank management, the customer should be screwed. It 's very clear Citi should simply get out of banking because the morons running the US have no idea what they are doing. I will be closing my accounts this month. After XXXX years. XXXX XXXX, please, if you do nothing else, please get the stupid ex-Card management morons out of the banking business. They are destroying the XXXX.
