Hmm...Oh Citi get yo' head in the game

longtime_lurker — Tue, 23 Jun 2015 14:37:11 GMT

Hey guys,

As some of you know, I've been having a grand ole' time with Citi this last month on here. As of this morning, I received my PIN via fedex, and was able to successfully link my accounts. I have decided to let my AAviator report maxed, and set a bill payment today (my statement closes today) which will be sent to them 6/25. I'll make a more detailed post about the banking side in Personal Finance shortly - if anyone has any contacts for an email address to send a note to them about the sheer rediculousness of how this all played out, let me know.

Now for this new twist on one of my credit cards! Remember Nixon and Jsucool finding that 0.00% APR application link for the Prestige? I just got handed something even better:

I don't know about you guys, but considering they denied jsucool 0.00% apr because the mailer wasn't in his name, maybe they'll let me have it since it's personalized to me? LOL

Thoughts anyone?

If it is personalized to you, you should be able to get it. Report with results if you do take advantage of it.

Would you recommend me going to the social media team first? Will definitely report w/ results

Not really as I think you are golden. But if going through them makes you more comfortable then by all means go through them before taking the offer and defiantely report back...

It's not a link to an application though, just a pop up of an "introduction of my card benefits" with my last 4 of my account number and my name (through my Citi login).

So I think I'll run it through the social media team. I'll message Citi on Facebook tomorrow.

That's exactly what you should do. Good luck

What is this thread about? Did Citi give you a card with a 0% APR? I must have missed the thread or threads you are referring to in the OP.

The OP was referring to the ordeal I've posted about in getting my Citigold banking account open. Today, when I finally was finally able to link and access my new checking account, this pop-up comes up. I'm curious to see if they will honor the 0% they seem to think my newly opened Premier account has.

Does that help?

I didn't get denied 0% because the offer wasn't in my name. It's because it was an old website link they said they legally didnt have to uphold because the terms and conditions stated the true APR. they gave me $160 for my trouble though (10,000 thank you points) and I got my annual fee waived...so I think I still beat citi on that one. haha. xD
