Citi double cash world elite?

[thummel]

So I just got my citi double cash and noticed it is a world elite MasterCard. I thought that the double cash is not a world elite master card and what's even crazier is that I only have a 1.5K limit on it. Has anybody else experienced this or is it fairly rare? Thanks.

Hmmm.. Odd as I thought it was the same qualification as the VS-- A $5k+ limit?

There r numerous Q&A about your particular question on this forum, I believe is issuing most/all current double cash cards as WEMC, which I truly feel r "Psuedo" in nature and lack all WEMC benefits, but they may be capturing the higher merchant fees

From member accounts, many seem to be shipping as WEMC.   However, they aren't showing up as "Flexible Spending Credit Cards" on the CRs, nor do they seem to be providing any other WEMC benefits.

+1 Exactly this.

Actually, the Double Cash WEMC does provide the WEMC benefits

A low SL for the Double Cash is not uncommon. You can always request a CLI @ activation, but be prepared for another HP. Best of luck!

As others have said, mine appears to be a "fake" WEMC--has the branding, but no associated benefits. The strip and logo look great though!

Can someone denote exactly which benefits are missing from these supposed "fake" WEMCs? And how do you know that the Citi DC cards are missing these features?

Citi has confirmed for me that the WEMC does carry WEMC benefits, and I have successfully been able to use them as well. So I'm not quite sure what the other poster is referencing. Has he/ she had an experience where he/she was unable to use the benefits?
