You're making the people here excited over a survey.

 

This card would be great for those who are over 5/24 and it's almost identical to the CSR. I still think Citi should add an additional perk to differentiate the card a little, but I'm sure they have their reasons for doing what they do. 


CSR you can transfer to United, Southwest and Hyatt I believe.  Don't think Citi has any American Based transfer partners.

Re: A New Citi Premium Credit Card

These premium credit cards are all the same for the most part. Atleast Amex and USB try to do something different then travel and dining on the top tier cards.

If citi really wanted to shake things up and be unique. They should get American as a transfer partner. I don’t understand why they have a AA cobranded card but they arent a TYP partner.

There’s not a single CC points system except the AA cobranded cards that lets you transfer directly into American.

They are regional though arent' they. Seems like if you live in Boston they would be a good choice but not if you lived anywhere else.  Well unless you wanted to fly to Boston

Would be a good alternative for those who are disqualified from getting CSR, due to Chase's 5/24 rule.

They just need to get better (subjective) airline partners.

One of the domestic airlines in the big 3 alliances would be helpful. It makes so much sense to add American Airlines, since Amex has delta , where they also have cobranded card with, and chase has united which they also have cobranded card with. The other issue is a lot of their partner overlap with Amex and chase Singapore airlines and Virgin Atlantic for example.

there's one particular fairly popular credit union (not NFCU) that is considering launching something to compete with the PenFed PCR.


There isn't much for them to copy.  The essence of the PenFed PCR is 2% back on all spending, with the ability to redeem right away in $5 increments.  That's it.  I believe Alliant FCU, State Dept FCU, and USAA all have similar cards.  The credit union that needs such a card is NFCU.

If you can’t beat them, join/copy them. Lol... this goes to a lot of companies out there not just financial institutions ... nothing original of their own or /competitiveness.

If you can't beat them, launch a new product that is similar and yet inferior.

I'm okay with Citi/Barclays cobrand churning and BBP giving 2.8 Avios (2x with a 40% promo) on up to $50k spend.
