Simplicity Vs Diamond Preferred

Hi Guys

 

With the exception of the Concierge Service, the Simplicity Card seems superior to the Diamond preferred regarding benefits etc - no APR hike if you miss a payment etc etc - sure, it's not "Black" - am i missing something?

The Simplicity also has frequent balance transfer offers (at least for me, I have 2-3 offers with various terms 0%-.99% APR). It's my only Citi card that gets them.

Yes they do, for my wife's Simplicity and my Diamond every week and sometimes twice a week. I'm about ready to buy a new shredder and when I do I'm going to bill Citi for it!
