Worst account opening experience ever
Worst account opening experience ever. Applied for a saving account online, entered all my info. Next day I got a denial email. No information provided, no info how to find out. Very sketchy ... I called their call center to find out more. No info provided.. asked me to send paper letter to an address in California to request the info. I do have a perfect credit all my life... Very frustrating... possible a HOAX to collect user info and SSN's .. stay away from this place.

CIT Bank considers multiple factors when analyzing new account applications for potential risk. These can be divided into two broad categories: the factors that enable us to reasonably verify that the applicant is who they claim to be, and those that pertain to the applicant’s banking history. The denial may have resulted from identity-related red flags. These arise from elements such as the personal data you input, the device and location from which you applied, and comparisons of these elements to each other and to data obtained through third-party sources.
