citi prestige...

So, finally applied this one over the weekend so that I could use the 4th night benefit and got approved. The card came today with Fedex. People say it comes in the black box... but there was no black box and it's kind of disappointing for the presentation of the card with $450 annual fees. I could not even find the card first... a bunch of papers stack in the envelope lol. Regardless, got a nice SL of 29k heh.

Oh wow..... that is rather disappointing. Don't feel bad.... I had the same experience with the AMEX Platinum. I applied for this card last week and it was delivered 2nd day Air... so that was my first disappointment. I thought the card should have been sent overnight.

 

Then the packaging it came in was so plain and nowhere  near as fancy as what The Points Guy showed on his site. The pic was from a few years ago but I figured the packaging would have been comparable if not better. 

 

The packaging my Discover card came in was much nicer.  

 

But Congrats on the card and that is def a GREAT SCL.

Re: citi prestige...

Weird because the Premier, which is the little brother, came in a nice silver box and packaging. 

 

However, congrats! This card will be the next I app for.

Re: citi prestige...

Congrats op!

Question though: Your signature lists some very premium CCs with hefty annual fees. Do you actually get your rewards worth to make up for those AFs?
