Your Citibank free checking account might not be free next year. In 2011, Citibank customers with an EZ or Access checking account opened between January 1 and November 5 of last year will be charged a monthly fee unless their balance remains above $1500.
This fee for a Citibank free checking account would have gone into effect on February 1, but New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo stepped in and required Citigroup to give its customers proper notice.
And that’s not all. Your Citibank free checking account will also start charging a per-check fee in February 2011 for some of these same customers.
I’m a big advocate of laissez-faire capitalism, but let’s get real. Banks are not helping their image when their “free” checking accounts come with a price tag. Leave a comment if you have experienced a hidden fee with a Citibank free checking account, or any other “free” checking account.


It agree, it is a remarkable phrase

I have been charge already with the new fee on my EZ
checking account, even that this account was opened on 2003. Thank you for your email.
Here’s hoping the cost of checking accounts is clearly and
boldly disclosed when a potential customer applies for a
checki9ng account..or when making changes to a free account…fair and clear notification is given.
“Minmium balance required” checking accounts have been around for many years.
want you to send the amount of $ 1500 dollars on the Citibank branch Alexandria, Egypt

Now I understand why some americans back of shore anonymously. It is becoming more clear that we are being fed upon by the few, percentage wise, that know and develop the system for banking. Actually raping would be more accurate. Bravo. This society keeps us so busy and meek as well anti intellectual that so few of us will ever do anything about it. I don’t know if I want to fight the system or make sure that I don’t become a victim of it. Do I call the system sinister or brilliant. Legal stealing. Great. What’s next? I’m afraid to find out.
how can you help me. I am haitian you know this that arrive at my country. MY country need help.
Come on Citibank, be real! …or at least pull back on the ‘nickel and dimeing’ on those who can afford it least.
Question? Is it time to go back ‘mattress cash banking?
