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.

Great interest rates but after I made… Great interest rates but after I made one withdrawal I have never been able to access my account. Have made numerous CORRECT login attempts but no luck. Customer service has tried but no luck. Plan to cancel after I receive tax info.

good rates, frustrating games it's true, they have the best rates- But their game is to not raise rates on existing accounts. So you have to pay attention and occasionally close and open a new account. Another game they play is delaying transfers. Using your money for a week or two before they give you access to it. My latest ACH transfer cleared my donor account- CIT is now promising it will be "available" in 11 days- Pretty sketchy. Give yourself two weeks transferring money in or out. Online access can be pretty frustrating convoluted security steps. I spend a lot of time on hold trying to get access, at least a couple times a year.

One of the most horrible and… One of the most horrible and incompetent customer service teams I’ve ever experienced.

It would be a better bank if they gave some updates This is your average online bank. There are many pros like high interests and very nice customer support. The only problem would be the lack of updates about my account when they are reviewing your account. Overall it's very good bank as long as you don't run into any account problems.
