Citibank phasing out Diamond Preferred

Options

‎02-05-2013 09:22 PM

I have heard that Citi is phasing out this card and will introduce a new card late spring 2013.  I can't find anything online to support it.  Does anyone have any info?

Experian Score: 675--Citibank--3 January 2013
Equifax Score 674--MyFICO--15 January 2013
TransUnion Score 656--Discover--25 February 2013

Cards and Credit Lines: Escape by Discover, HSBC Platinum Master Card, Barclay Holland America Visa, Citibank Custom Credit Line, Paypal Custom Connect Credit Line, Bloomingdale's, and Macy's.
Closed: Dell Financial Services credit line. SOBs cut my credit limit, so I cut the cord. S****w 'em!

I actually wouldnt doubt that they would phase this out. There is not a whole lot of advertisment for this and CITI is really pushing TYP

I'd rather see them ad TY points to the card. It catches my eye everytime I see it. Its classy looking, far more so to me than the Fisher Price look of the TY cards.

Well, all I know about it is my buddy that is a banker at Citi told me Diamond was being phased.  Does anyone know if Citi has a new card?

Your buddy would probably know more than anybody here if he knows about the Diamond's fate.

Prestige is not new, just new graphics.
