I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration with the services provided by Maria A. Laborio, Home Equity Specialist at Citizens Bank. My experience with Ms. Laborio has been nothing short of misleading and deceptive, and I feel compelled to share my ordeal to prevent others from falling victim to her dishonest practices.
Upon reaching out to Ms. Laborio for information about home equity services, I was met with false promises and inaccurate claims. Ms. Laborio persuaded me into believing that the minimum Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) was preapproved, urging me to apply without providing transparent details or full disclosure about the process.
Ms. Laborio's misleading representation of the HELOC preapproval status was a blatant attempt to maneuver me into applying for a product without fully understanding the terms, conditions, or implications. Her actions demonstrate a clear lack of integrity and a disregard for ethical business practices.
Furthermore, Ms. Laborio's failure to provide accurate and honest information reflects poorly on her professionalism and integrity as a Home Equity Specialist. By misrepresenting the preapproval status and pressuring individuals to apply for financial products under false pretenses, she undermines trust and erodes confidence in the services provided by Citizens Bank.
I urge prospective clients to exercise caution and skepticism when dealing with Maria A. Laborio and to thoroughly examine any information or offers presented by her. My experience serves as a cautionary tale about the importance of due diligence and vigilance when navigating financial transactions, especially with individuals like Ms. Laborio, who prioritize misleading tactics over genuine customer service.
In conclusion, I strongly advise against engaging with Maria A. Laborio or entrusting her with any financial matters. Her deceptive practices and lack of integrity tarnish the reputation of Citizens Bank and betray the trust of unsuspecting clients.

Please don't waste your time applying for a home equity loan if you are retired or elderly. They simply won't offer anything reasonable for you; they won't count most of your assets, even if you have a nearly perfect credit score and always pay your bills on time. Additionally, when they offered us a line of credit, it was half of what we requested. They said we had to use the money to pay outstanding credit card debt, of which there was none, except for charges made in the previous 30 days, which we always paid off each month. It was a terrible experience.

Hands down the worst most incompetent customer service I have ever experienced. Every person should be fired from this company. Huge wait times. No call backs and zero ability to meet a single
Commitment made

The HELOC was a way for me to consolidate some bills into one payment. This is achieved by paying interest only for the first 10 years. In addition, you can make principal payments so far this has work, but I am looking for a solution to move on from this.

Sought a $400k equity credit line on my home, which has undergone extensive renovations over the last 18 months ($500k+). My income is net $600k per year and my credit score is 760+. The communication and clarity of the same provided by my Citizens loan officer (Kim M) was dismal if not actually painful. Sporadic and incomplete emails and phone call responses are peppered with out of office notifications and out right ‘I am too busy’ notices. All in all a horrible experience that ended poorly. FYI, you’ll know when you are being fired as a customer when Kim starts CCing her boss.
