The game has changed. It was good for everyone while it lasted.

CITIFI has been merged into Citibank and is no longer accepting any new applications as of 8/1/00.

I spoke to the new accounts department and was told Citibank does not take credit cards to fund an account like CITIFI did.

And the interest rate has changed dramatically. CITIFI was give 5.8% interest for a money market account. Citibank is half of that.
