Citibank
Maryland unemployment funds show $0 balance pending verification

Politics & Government

It seems now, in the age of computers, every business is going "online." In Maryland, to collect your unemployment benefits, you used to call in by Sunday night, and they would send you a check in the mail.

Now you call in on Sunday and wait for Citibank to "deposit" your "funds" into a "Citibank Visa" account. Sounds pretty good, doesn't it? Well, read on.

I checked my U.I. payment and it showed "payment issued." Ok, I go to the ATM to withdraw the money and get a message, "$0 balance"??? I call Citibank, and they tell me that they have to "verify" my records before they can "release" the money. I ask how long that will take, and the lady said by "5 P.M. EST." I ask, "Today?" She responds, "No, it may take until Friday???"

So my question is this: evidently someone in the "mind-boggling" state of Maryland must be getting some kind of kickback from Citibank to set up a scam such as this.
