  • Hi Guys,

    Just wanted to ask a quick question. Having gone through my credit file with a fine tooth comb, i have two defaults on my account and quite a bad rating. I recently applied for an abbey account and was turned down, and at the recommendation from a friend applied for a citibank current account with O/D today. Does citibank offer instant decisions?

    After filling in the application and submitting, i received a promt saying "My application was sucessfull and the relevant documentation will be with me in 3/4 days, which I must sign and return with supporting documentation"

    Does this mean my application was sucessful?

    Cheers in advance

    I would noy say you have been accepted until you have your new bank card etc in your hand. Citibank are a weird bunch at the application stage

  • Thanks for the response,

    I've just received notification by Equifax Credit Watch that they did perform a search on me when I applied, so fingers crossed was approved.

    I'll keep you all posted of my progress ;)

    Cheers

  • Well after applying on sunday, I recieved the application pack Tuesday night ...

    The welcome letter clearly stated "Welcome to CitiBank" and advised to sign and date the enclosed agreement. What was strange about this is at the top of the document it said to sign and date the document and return along with documentation detailed in the checklist below...

    The checklist simply said "Signed and Dated Agreement" and nothing else!?

    Ah well lol, i enclosed a signed copy of my passport, several original bills, a signed copy of my tenancy agreement as well as my recent wage slip and bank statement :D

    I'll keep ya all in the loop when i receive a response ;)
