Citi AA exec

[red259]

Have the Citi AA exec card and AF is coming up. I have not heard of anyone being able to downgrade the card to something else. The retention offers do not seem like they will be enough to justify AF. I have a citi hilton, but I hear citi is a pain about moving credit lines around. Is there anything I can really do with this card or is my only real plan to cancel it if I don't want to eat the AF?

Well, they will probably want an HP to move the CL.

Citi told me last year on a different card that they could not move the CL's.

I did not have the Exec card but Platinum Select and to avoid the AF Citi offered me to PC to AA Gold which is a product you cannot apply but it still exists. Then I decided to PC to Double Cash instead. No HP or whatsoever... smooth PC. I do not see why this should not work for the Executive as it is also a co-branded product. Good luck!

If you're a valued member they'll want to retain your business over however many cards you have with them. My advice would be to call CS and speak with someone who can advise you on your options. Tell them you don't want an HP, and just want smooth transition. Citi has several products that should meet your criteria, and their retention department will have done their job.

Citi moved CLs for me in September. Took a HP for it though.
