Everything went as smoothly as it did almost eight years at my original closing. I just had to sign a "gazillion" papers (sure hope that the progressively deteriorating signature doesn't cause any problems ).

That $300 savings will contribute nicely to my on-board cruise bar bills!

How much were your closing costs? We have a 3/1 ARM, and Citizens won't do a refi until after the first adjustment. My company credit union has a better rate than Citizens, but the closing costs are $4000, so it's not worth it to refi just to get the monthly payment down a little.
