Missed my bonus spend by $30 due to miscalculating annual fee. Contacted several agents that were foreign. They did nothing for me and were rude (so I closed card immediately). Stick with Chase or other reputable banks. I hope Citicards goes bankrupt! Do not do business with this company!
What makes you think Chase or any other banks would be different? Hint, they aren't.

No, they wont give you the number until it arrives by mail. In my case it was about 10 days, but that was right before Christmas.

I've read that American Express will give you a number when you apply, and AFAIK that's about the only one that will.

Yes! Got approved. Spending $4K to get $800 is ez-pz. You kind of just have to laugh at those store credit cards offering pennies to open a card.

I used this card to buy $200 in Best Buy gift cards. As far as I know, it counted towards the $4k spend requirement.

Can someone please help me with the chances of approval. Have credit score of 752. Applied for a Capital one CC 10 days back & got approved. Make 6 figures. Should I bother applying?

Landing page still says "Spend $4,000 in the first 3 months of account opening to earn your bonus points.** Redeem them for travel rewards or $800 in gift cards at thankyou.com."

Just want to verify that I can just put the $800 back towards my card as "cash".

I'm making a $4,200 purchase that I want to pay over time. I was looking at the Chase Freedom Unlimited for the $200 bonus and 0% intro APR for 15 months. On the Citi card even at 14.99% interest I would pay $457 in interest over 15 months. I could charge to the Citi and probably do a 0% transfer to Discover, BofA, or Amex card I have after the first month (would be a 3% balance transfer fee). I don't carry balances on any card unless I'm making a purchase for something like I'm going to be but always look for 0%. I know I will get the money for the purchase, but it takes some time.

$800 bonus + ~$40 reg cash back on $4k = ~$840 statement credit or direct dep or check

Use laptop/desktop go to the full ThankYou rewards portal from your online Citi account then pick Cash section -- select statement credit or direct dep or check

In the app you might have to select Gift Cards first to take you to the full rewards portal
