Citi Forward 5x points

[charleeislegend]

I recently read about a citi forward student cardholder not recieving 5 points at restraunts, amazon, etc. As I just activated my citi forward card also, iI want to make sure im receiving these bonuses, is there anyway on the site I can make sure im receiving these "promotional" rewards?

From my understanding you will need to build your benefits to recieve the 5 points for Amazon. If its not available then its gone.

Yeah best thing is to just call and not to speculate and maybe argue stating this is why you go this particular card
