after googling dollar accounts I thought Citibank looked the most appropriate for my needs. After filling in an online form which questioned in detail how I would use the account, i.e monthly deposit/spend and regularity, I then received 2 further calls asking me the same questions. I have then received another letter asking for further documentation, this process has already taken 3 weeks. In summary, AVOID CITIBANK! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!

I applied for a UK-based US dollar account with Citibank. What followed was several months of frustration: letters asking for information and paperwork already provided; futile phone conversations with call centre staff; the dispension of conflicting information; etc. In the end, I was informed that my application had lapsed and I would have to re-apply. I will not be doing so, I should not have bothered in the first place.
As someone with a strong financial history and many accounts based in the UK, I found Citibank's treatment appalling.
