    It has been a week now since I sent the application but no reply yet. Shall I contact them? I dont have the application reference number, so what shall I tell & ask them?

    A week is a very short period of time. At least allow another 7 days before considering contacting them.

    mastercard/maestro/link sign is displayed.

    Obviously though the Visa Debit card cannot be used at places displaying these items unless visa is also mentioned ;)

    Ofc, Visa is widly accepted so I wouldn't worry too much about that.
  • So, can Visa Delta be used anywhere that has the Visa sign ... (whereas Electron can't) ...

    Sorry, if this is a silly question .. :o

    Yep, that's right! Visa Dellta IS Visa whereas a Visa Electron is a "basic" debit card if you like, not accepted at all outlets.

  • I used to work for Citi and I would expect a response by now. They could have a back log of new applications? I would give it a couple of days and then call, it wont do any harm to check it out

    Hello everyone

    Just thought I'd post with regards the Citibank account. Have received a Visa Debit Card from them this morning and cheque book but the card is not also a cheque garrantee card, just a basic Visa Debit but I, for one, am happy with that.

    Hope this helps anyone who is considering Citibank/or has applied.

    So you got an Electron?? Does it say Electron on the card??
  • it says visa on the front and delta on the back



    Pls be nice to all MSer's
    There's no such thing as a stupid question, and even if you disagree courtesy helps.
    Tomorrow never come's as today is yesterday and tomorrow is today:confused:

    MERRY CHRISTMAS FELLOW MSer's:xmastree:
  • So JoanneE if you used to work for Citi, do you know what their credit checking policy is? regarding opening of a bank account??

    Would be very interested to know.

    As others have said hold off just now, I suspect they are very very busy with all the applications. Mines taken just under two weeks so wait till about the 14th day then call them. Remember Sat/Sun are not working days.

    Keep us posted :money:
