what did you do that you believe got you shut down. My account and my father's account were shut down, and yes they are nasty about it and there is not second chance. You are treated like a criminal even though there is nothing that is actually violated. I don't want this to happen to my husband's account. So details would be helpful as to what you were doing. Since there is only one existing account, obviously there is no transferring back and forth or transferring anywhere. He is transferring from a cc to a c2it account and then to his checking account. Has anyone been shut down doing this?

I did the same thing too. I used a citibank credit card to add cash to C2it and then transfer to my bank account. Most amounts were pretty small. just a couple of grands or hundreds and not excessive.

I got an email from them about 2 or 3 weeks ago for both of my account and said they shut down my accounts already without any warnings in advance at all. There were reasons in the emails.

I don't even want to deal with them and just let go. You can read their message if you wish... ;-)
