If I sign up for this card today and get approved, and already have 90k LPs, do I automatically get the 20k for the 25-26 year?
Citi is kinda weird. Like, I've had no issues, but then P2 gets (metaphorically, not literally, I hope) blacklisted. I donno, shoot your shot, and just move-on if it doesn't work out. (C1 on the other hand, yikes, those guys hate me for whatever reason. Anti-churning stuff, probably. Gotta go 0/24. Psh.)
Just wondering how does it differ from the Elite Strata card? Thanks Ben - Really enjoy your travel reviews.
@ seg7523 -- Thanks! Regarding the Citi Strata Elite, I'd say approval odds and application rules are very similar. They both have the 48-month rule, and eligibility restrictions are specific to each card (so you can pick up either card if you have another Citi card).
For the 48-month rule, I understand that the relevant date is when you last received the bonus, not the date you last applied for the card previously. But, if you apply again, is eligibility for the bonus based on when you meet the criteria for the bonus or when you submit the new application? E.g., let's say you last received a bonus on October 1, 2022, meaning you'll be eligible to receive the bonus again as of October 1, 2026. If you apply for the card today, but don't meet the spend requirement for the bonus until October 1, will you receive the bonus? Or will you be disqualified from the bonus because you applied today, before October 1? Thanks!
