So I had to take the advice of the Citizens person and take out a very excessive amount just in case....and they will refund me the difference. Catastrophic, of course not, but not the level of competence I like to see in places I do business with. I have bought other houses, and I have always had the money figure in time to at least get to a bank before they closed.

Several posters on this forum have missed their closing date because of the incompetence of Citizens. One frequent poster even missed out on the homestead exemption because his closing was moved from Dec to Jan.
These posters were probably not charged several hundred dollars in fines, but Citizen's claim to fame of never missing a closing is bogus.
