their online services division is among the most successful in the field [2] claiming about 15 million users. As a result of the global financial crisis of 2008–2009 and huge losses in the value of its subprime mortgage assets, Citibank was rescued by the U.S. government under plans agreed for Citigroup. On November 23, 2008, in addition to initial aid of $25 billion, a further $25 billion was invested in the corporation together with guarantees for risky assets amounting to $306 billion.[3] Since this time, Citibank has repaid its government loans in full.

The first president of the City Bank was the statesman and retired Colonel, Samuel Osgood,[5] Citibank was one of the first U.S. banks to introduce automatic teller machines in the 1970s, in order to give 24-hour access to accounts. Customers could use their existing Citicard in this machine to withdraw cash and make deposits, and were already accustomed to using a machine with a card to get information that previously required a teller.[clarification needed] In April 2006, Citibank struck a deal with 7-Eleven to put its automated teller machine (ATMs) in more than 6,700 convenience stores in the United States. In the same month, it also announced it would sell all of its Buffalo and Rochester, New York, branches and accounts to M&T Bank.
