Citizens Bank

Anyone have any experience with them? Or the everyday points program? I'm currently with BOA and can't wait to switch. I really like what I see with this bank just curious to hear others experiences. TIA

We use Citizens Bank and have been extremely happy with them. The Everyday points program is good. I have found that it takes more points to get a gift card for a specific place rather than a Master Card gift card you can use anywhere.

We have used Citizens Bank for more than 10 years. I did have the Everyday Points linked to my checking account a couple of years ago, but then they made some changes that I didn't like (I think there might be a fee?), so I switched over to "Green Sense".

By having a Green Sense account, they pay each time you use your debit card instead of writing a check (and possibly give you credit for getting your statements electronically). I don't remember all the details, about what I'm getting but I average $7.50-$9.00 per month (I think there is a limit of $10 per month). They pay it once at the beginning of each month (example on 8/3/10, I got a credit of $8.90 for my July "greensense" use).

They consider it like interest for tax purposes, so you get a 1099-INT at the end of the year based on what you were paid.

I've been with Citizens Bank for over 20 years and no complaints so far.

I like that they have lots of branches in Stop & Shops and are normally open great hours. The Cumberland Farms next to me just got a Citizens ATM so I'm thrilled

My husband and I have been banking with Citizens for several years, we also used them in the past for car loans (citizens auto finance) and our mortgage (cco mortgage) in addition to our checking, savings and Credit Cards. We have never had a complaint, and really love that many of their locations are open 7 days a week!

Thank you everyone for the feedback! It's great to hear from people who actually use them. Carmel

We have CharterOne, which is owned by Citizens and have no complaints. We had some issues when we got our mortgage through cco with fees to my checking account, but they refunded them and corrected my account no problem. I was a little skeptical when they bought out my bank, but I have been happy.

I've used Citizens Bank for over 10 year snow. They are great, I have the Green Sense account too.
I'm down in FL now, but I keep my Citizens account for certain direct deposits.
