Slow Transactions CIT is a decent bank. I think the thing that makes it so frustrating is just the slow pace at which it transfers money from one account to another, especially from outside banks. It takes roughly 2 WEEKS to transfer in a chunk of money from another external, already verified bank account. Unbelievably ridiculously slow. SoFI takes 2 to 3 days! Kind of outweighs the higher interest rate CIT pays… they put a weeklong hold on the money, even after it’s been verified and removed from my other bank account.

Did not receive a renewal notice for a… Did not receive a renewal notice for a cd which is required by law either by mail or email. They then renewed the cd which was paying 5% with one paying 0.3%. When I received a notice to this event which occurred on 2/3 which contains the date of 2/13 on their letter, and received by me on 2/28, they now want a penalty to redeem the cd. They are thieves.

Too long for funds to be available I recently opened a high yield savings account with CIT bank. While I love that they are paying a higher percentage, I HATE that it takes SOOOOO long for my money to be available after an electronic transfer; over 1 week. I could totally see taking over 1 week to be available if I did a mobile check deposit, but it takes way too long for an electronic transfer.

Not a bad experience Not a bad experience, but not great either. The website can be very confusing, especially to pay an invoice or set up autopay of regular monthly payments due. You have to set up another login to a linked website called "payconnexion" in order to pay items. You can't get to payconnexion directly, you can only get there by logging in to CIT and then clicking the link within that site in the payment area. Really weird, clunky, and old-school in my opinion. And, then, payconnexion is not very clear sometimes on how it is processing a payment. I've overpaid a couple of times because it reads one way but acts another. Hopefully with CIT turning into First Citizens Bank things will improve for the website and payments.
