citi financial is one of the most dishonst financial companies my wife and I have ever had the displeasure of doing business with. we refinanced with them about 5 years ago. after we started making our new mortage payments the phone calls started saying we still owed money on the old loan. they told my wife they wouldn't release our property if we didn't pay. we wanted to know what the money was we supposedly owed. no answer, even writing letters to real people if you want to call them that got us no response. they ruined our credit. after two months of harresment we got a bill from them for $20,000.00 on thew old loan which wqas supposdly payed up. we had to hire an attorney who wrote to them asking them ont to forclose on us because there was a mistake that they had made. that did no good we received forclosure papers we have since gotten it straightned out but are in the process of counter suing them had the judge dismiss the case. it was then appealed and that was turned down now its in for the final appeal if this gets turned down we lose they win. I also believe they pay off judges to rule in ther favor at least it looks that way in our case. bad people best to stay away from them and get a loan from louie the loan shark you'll get a better deal. don't pay you get a broken leg citi ruins your credit, takes your house, makes you suffer for years.

AS A FIRST TIMER, I FELT THAT HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE INFORMATIVE. EVEN WHEN I PURCHASED UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE, THEN WAS LAID OFF FROM MY JOB, HE NEVER EVEN MENTIONED IT. THEN I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS TOO LATE TO USE IT. I FOUND OUT LATER, THAT WAS A LIE. HE EVEN WANTED ME TO HAVE ONE OF MY FRIENDS WRITE A CHECK TO HIM ON THEIR ACCOUNT AND HE WOULD HOLD IT, UNTIL I WAS PAID. I TOLD HIM THAT KNOWINGLY WRITING A HOT CHECK WAS AGAINST THE LAW, ESPECIALLY ON ONE OF MY FRIENDS ACCOUNTS, WHICH IS FRAUD. HE THEN TOLD ME, THAT WAS THE ONLY WAY HE COULD THINK OF TO HELP ME. SO HE COULD NOT HELP ME ANYMORE.

My husband lost his job in August of 2007, called them to let them know, and they said there was nothing they could do to help us, without an income. I went to work, husband got another job, and when we called to ask about remodification, we were told we didn't make enough money, and should get second jobs! Our house will be foreclosed upon in a month. This company si pure EVIL!!!!

Due to financial hardship they offered to defer 3 payments, did all paperwork and assumed the deferral was good. Turns out they only deferred 2 months so right away we were behind again - never notified us that they only deferred 2 months. Went into foreclosure and had to pay $2200 within 24 hours to get out of foreclosure. Very difficult to work with, rude employees. At one point I had to write a letter requesting that a particular employee NOT work on our case because she was so rude and demeaning to me.

It is difficult to give them a rating as I am at a stand still. I have been trying to work with them for months. The representative are always pleasant but I am not getting anywhere. They leave you in the dark and on record it states my home is pending foreclosure. I am very very nervous about my situation.

Tried to payoff my mortgage with CitiMortage. Called to get a payoff quote and will not give it to me over the phone. Phone system said will mail within 7 business days. Did not receive on the 8th business day and went to a Citibank center to pay it off. While in the citibank, had to call mortgage dept myself and get a quote. Asked for payoff quote, guy on the phone said "refinance?". I told him no, had to explain what a payoff quote is. Still refuse to give me a hard number, asked if I want in mail or fax, told him I'm already at their bank and just want to pay off the loan, need to know my principle + interest as of today. Finally given me a number... Went to pay at the teller, first teller said no prob before I made the call. The guy on the phone said no prob pay at the bank. The second teller said no you can't pay off your mortgage here. She even made an attempt to call their customer service to make sure. I asked her why I can't pay it off, she can take mortgage payments there, it's exactly like how she enters a mortgage payments, you enter the principle and extra principle and interest a person is paying (I used to work at a bank), she still refused. I was tired of paying games with her so I asked for a manager, she went on arguing and said "sure I can get you a manager but they'll tell you the same thing". Never got me a manager. I was so upset I closed all my accounts with them right there and then! I know Citibank is going through a hard time right now but didn't think they're using that low of a tactic to keep $2 worth of interest. I know what kinda of games they're playing, the later I pay off the mortgage, the more interest they earn. What a rotten company.

We tried to get them to work with us. They basically said pay it or we will come get it. We have a 10 year old we are trying to raise. Our interest rate is 10%. Even though the Feds have reduced the rates. This is just a mobile home, and we are paying 1,048.00 per month.

I've never been told the same thing twice and always more confused when I get off the phone each time. Everyone is rude to deal with and no-one wants to help me or answer any of my questions. They continue to add plans to my loan that I did not ask for and I'm always owing more money than I thought. It would be nice to have someone nice to deal with and be helpful when you already feel down and sorry for being in the position I'm in already!

They leave 10 msgs a day saying they can help, but when you call them back, they say they can't help until you make a payment...so what help is that??? A bit misleading just to get you to call back & probe for more incriminating information. I need help - not a predator.

This company took advantage of my situation when I was looking for a solution rather than a problem. Restructuring, refining to lower rates,and working together with customers is not in Citifinancial vocabulary, dictionary or immediate intentions.




by linda vauthier From Nancy, KY on January 21, 2008
We are senior citizens and we have fallen on hard times. we have asked to refinance to lower our payment because our interest rate is 12.4% so we can save our home from foreclosure, but they won't even discuss it because they say our house is substandard.

Citi financial is a lousy company to be doing business with. unfortunately, most people that have an mortgage with them had no choice in the matter. i have found their employees to be crooks, thieves, and liars, etc. i had to fight with them for a mortgage modification and this was after being under two Chapter 13 bankruptcy plans. DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS WITH CITI CORP. OR ANY OF THE COMPANIES THEY CONTROL. I watch and check out any business(s) i use for anything. I will never recommend them to anyone.




by Anonymous From Newark, NJ on August 30, 2007
I had a 1st and 2nd mortgage with Citi. By chance I went to check my payoff and found that they took my mortgage payment to pay my property taxes without my consent. To add salt to the wound, they reported me late to the credit bureaus. With the 2nd mortgage, I was forced to open a checking account with them and than charged $10 a month if I did not keep $1000.00 or more. This financial institution is a joke!




by Anonymous From Black Hawk, CO on August 29, 2007
Ir depends on the individual. Some with Citi Financial are threatening and others are understanding. They refused payments when two payments were due they wouldn't accept payments unless they were western union. One person wanted all the money in the tune of 16,000 and then another person offered a modification. I am racing against the clock. I have a great deal of equity in my property they wouldn't consider an equity loan.

Citi Financial is the worst company ever to deal with. When it came time to pay off my loan, it was the hardest thing in the world to get them to provide me a payoff statement. They made me drive to their office which was 30 minutes away from my house just to get the payoff statement and then I got there and they tried to talk me out of paying them off! I strongly recommend people to not do business with them. I know I never will again.

Citi Financial has really messed me and my family up I trusted the branch manager and she kept $6,500.00 dollars in my money and has not helped me at all the money was to go back in my loan and she promised to mail my receipt to me I trusted her because i really thought she was helping me but I gave the money in cash I say the only way to have state she kept my money would be a polygraph test and have her investigated if she makes people trust her then messes with there lives she needs to be out of their and my house payments would not be so far behind and ready for foreclosure and still she says she will help me right now I need that money to put my home back on track and I know about the time she kept the money she purchased her home from a family member I get my billing statements and I don't see that money put on my loan. I really need some help from someone out their I cannot afford to lose my home I am a single mother I have nothing more to offer my child except a good home and love, and trust even though citifinancial has the most untrustworthy people working for them.

Citi Financail claims they want to work with their clients to help get them back on track yet whenever I have spoken to my account manager, the reply I received was "that's unacceptable". She refused to work with me, even when I said I would pay up by the date given to me in writing. She said I should disregard the letter. They change the rules as the game is being played. I will NEVER do business with the company again!!




by Anonymous From Sidney Center, NY on May 09, 2007
I have tried several times to work out a solution with Citi Financial before they started the foreclosure on my house, but they turned down everything. They sent me a certified letter to tell me that they would refinance at a lower interest rate, take 20% off the principal and no closing cost. When I called Citi Financial to have this done( within the time period they gave me to respond), I was told that they couldn't do it.




by Anonymous From Williamson, WV on April 17, 2007
Citi financial is not interested in working with their clients; their goal is to go to foreclosure, get their tax write-off and reel in the next fish.




by Kendra From Springfield, OR on April 14, 2007
In the beginning they were great to work with. Friendly efficient. But when it came to needing to do hardship papers and such when I got behind the person was a jerk. And they never did work with me to prevent the default and foreclosure
