Citi: Diamond Preferred vs Simplicity

Looking for a good low interest offer, and these both offer 18 months of 0%. 

 

It seems the only difference is the Diamond preferred offers concierge service. I really like that card, but I'd also really like to add a Visa to my collection. 

 

What is this concierge service, and is it really of any use?

I have the Diamond  Preferred.  Great for the BT...never use the service.

What's so special about the Diamond Preferred? I've been getting offers from them as of late.

Nothing I guess. 

 

It's a simplicity card, with the concierge service. 


They look amazing though

Not entirely.  The simplicity has some neat features for those who may need to rely on the "credit" portion, such as:

 

-Cash APR is the same as purchase APR

-No late penalties or APRs

Re: Citi: Diamond Preferred vs Simplicity

I see

 

I really only care about the intro APR, and I'd like a Visa. I'm just so torn because I've always really liked the Diamond Preferred.

 

Does Citi allow PCs to rewards cards from BT cards?
