About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath as he parked his truck near Citibank. ‘Why does it always take so long for them to open?’ Suddenly, the doors swung wide, and out stepped an old man in a tweed suit who looked like he’d stepped straight from another era. The old man nodded curtly and marched towards the counter, muttering something about 'bloody bureaucracy.' The cashier smiled warmly, greeting him with, 'Good morning, sir!' The old fellow blinked, clearly taken aback, then grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Morning, love,' before settling down to conduct his business.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the Citibank branch and asked the teller, ‘Do you know why they say money grows on trees?’ The teller smiled and replied, 'No sir, I don’t.' The old man leaned in confidently and whispered, 'Because some people plant seeds and wait their whole lives!' Everyone around them burst into laughter, including the delivery driver waiting in line.

3. One afternoon, a young man walked into the Citibank branch and asked the teller, 'Excuse me, can you please tell me how much money I need to deposit so that my account balance becomes exactly zero?' The teller smiled and replied, ‘Just one cent less than your current balance.’ The man nodded thoughtfully, then said, ‘Oh, and could you please put it in a separate account?’ He winked at her as he left, leaving everyone in stitches.

4. One night, a security guard dozed off behind the counter while checking his phone. Suddenly, a customer calmly walked up and said, 'Excuse me, could you please verify my account balance?' The guard blinked awake, stammered something about needing his password, and then pretended everything was normal. The customer nodded knowingly and left with a smile. A few days later, an anonymous note appeared in the lobby: ‘Your secret is safe with us.’
