Citi Bank current account.

[dori2o]

I want to open a Citi Bank account as my parachute account, but I will be making a claim against them for unlawful charges. Does anyone know if they are in the business of closing these accounts if you claim refunds from citicards?

[Enron]

I would advise against it, especially considerring all the fun & games we are having reclaiming penalty charges from them.

 

From what I hear HSBC are a reasonable company, with more branches.

I agree with Enron - Citi will more than likely close this account if they find out you are claiming from their credit card. We have no evidence of this, just my opinion.

 

Good Luck

[Enron]

I'm more of the opinion that why would you want to open a new bank account to deposit your money with when you already have issues with them relating to penalty charges.

 

In my case they upped my credit limit to £15,800 because I paid a sizeable chunk off my remaining balance - despite the fact that I am taking them to court.

 

A nice letter went off to state this, and state that fact that I would not be taking out any further Citi products.
