Re: Citi AA card upgrade before 1st statement?!?

I just recieved my card today, and to say also it is a nice looking card, and I like the way it says World Elite on the front of the card, as i have a Citi Dividened World Elite and it only states it on the back of the card, the only issue I have is my AAdvantage member number is not embossed on the new card, as it was on the old card.......

New card showed up today. Pretty nice. I guess next Feb I'll be pushing for a retention bonus.

LOL.... Let me know when you call in if you have any success if Citi will do this with the world elite card then I will have to call in myself, also I wish I was computer savy I would post a pic hopefully someone who has this card will do so....

We can't post pictures of cards.  Only stock photos are allowed (aka Lee M Cardholder).  I'm curious, what's the deal with having AA number on the card?  When would you need it?

LOL I am old and forget numbers etc....it really is just so I know where to find it if I need it really, not sure of any "practical" reason, unless when booking on a website like orbitz you need to put it in to get credited for miles?? I know I put my numbers in the hotel or airlines websites under my profile so it is always there when I book off those.

I too, am curious. My WN card has it and I find it distracting/ugly. I keep a master list on my computer for booking online. I assume that gate agents can look it up but maybe they can't? Plus you wouldn't necessary have the AA credit card on you when flying AA.

It's such a short sequence. Too easy to memorize. Lol. Maybe I'm missing out having it on my card.
