Citibank may have jut hit a new low. Even if you don't have a Shitibank card, you need to read this so that you can warn others: your family, your friends, etc.
From a former Citibank employee:
I am a former employee of this shitty company.
Now that I am no longer an employee, I feel it is my right to let everyone now what CITI intends on doing (aka screwing over)for their cardmembers who were effected by the hurricane.
CITI claims that they will defer all accounts for 90 days. Meaning no Finance charges, Late Fees, Overlimit Fees. As an employee we were informed of this.
So of course, this information we passed on to their cardmembers for about a week. Telling them they have more important things to attend to.
Low and be hold, the truth comes out. One week after the hurricane hit, CITI announced to their employees that they will only defer accounts for 30 days. They did say they will defer for a longer period of time, IF YOU ASK!!!! In this devastating time in our nation, how dare a company ask you to take time out of your already hectic life, to call in and request a deferment for a longer period of time.
HAVE THE COURTESY TO JUST DEFER THE ACCOUNTS FOR 90 DAYS...."LIKE YOU SAID SO IN THE BEGINING"(from http://www.fuckcitibank.com).
This is an all out scam. It makes me furious that our government has done nothing to protect us from corporate thieves and terrorists like Citigroup.
If you have a Citibank card cancel it now and tell them exactly why you are canceling it.
Also if you don't (or even if you do) when such an injustice occurs we need to warn others. Get the word out. Send this out as a forwarded email. Click the recomend button. Email you representatives. Call you friends and tell them. Put this in the bottom line of your email. Do whatever it takes.
