    citi:

    Does it really take 11% over Prime to be successful with credit cards? When it became to expensive to operate in the US, manufacturing went overseas. Maybe China/Asia can offer better credit terms, or maybe WalMart or Costco?

    I would imagine the poor moderator will lose his/her mind dealing with the high level of invective and bile directed CitiBank’s way.

    Ha!  That blog seriously bogs down my Core 2 Duo.  Typically letters appear on the screen as I type them.

    Let’s see if my comment is approved by the moderator:

    http://new.citi.com/2010/02/citis-response-to-the-mortgage-crisis.shtml

    And what percent of those loan mods in fact saddled the borrower with a *higher* balance?  Is it approximately the industry average of 70%?

    Fellow homeowners, what’s your loan-to-value again?  200%?  Good luck avoiding foreclosure; you’re under house arrest, for life!
