Yes, but have you taught your dog to day this?

I love the online banking system! I pay my utility bills when I'm in Canada. I can even have Citizens mail a personal cheque for house watch, lawn care or house cleaning.
It has been quite awhile since they gave away apples. Or maybe I'm just not looking..............

I've been in the Penalty Box in Canada for eight months. I should have said "Citizens used to give away apples". The tellers at Citizens are usually a cheery bunch, compared to the Bank of America where the tellers remind me of icicles.

Have to disagree with you on this one. I've been using their online banking system for about 8 months now and I doubt if any bank has a better online site for conducting any banking business that you may need. The popcorn and the apples are great but being able to do all banking business from the convenience of my home is a very convenient and pleasureable experience!! Have had to personally visit the bank only once in the past 8 months.

Banking from Canada is a breeze.

Right now though, I believe that it's a deep-freeeze breeze!

With all due respect John, I have to ask you this. Did Fumar dispatch you to check out the new postal stations and report back on any little doggies you find peeing?

I switched from Citizens to Wells Fargo and find them very friendly and helpful. They also give you free checks and a free safe deposit box which Citizens does not. Wells Fargo has a very good on-line bill pay system.

I signed up for Citizens when we bought 7 years ago and have since dumped my other accounts, Citizens does a fantastic job...gn
