One thing to note with this offer is that you can claim the 80,000 points with this and then downgrade the card to a Double Cash in a year. Effectively giving the Double Cash a 800$ sub
·
1) Meet spending requirement on Citi Premier card
2) Earn 80,000 point sign up bonus
3) Downgrade Premier to Double Cash or Custom Cash before you're charged with another annual fee
4) Points balance should carry over from Premier to your downgrade card

Approved for 20k. Maybe I should have waited for a few more days for some BF deals… oh well. Now I have to find ways to spend 4k right before the holiday season!

Hi, quick question. Did you know there is any expiration date for this offer? I may have to wait for one more month then apply. Any help would be appreciated. TIA.
I don't have a definitive answer for you. I can only point to the last time this card had an 80k point bonus, from July 2021 to January 2022. So it was active for 7 months? But there's no guarantees that it'll last that long this time around.

Bonus ThankYou® Points are not available if you received a new cardmember bonus for

Citi Rewards+®
Citi ThankYou® Preferred
Citi ThankYou® Premier
Citi Premier®
Citi Prestige®

or if you have closed any of these accounts, in the past 24 months.

So if you have one of the above named card accounts still open but the bonus was received more than 24 months ago you can get the bonus on this card as long as you didn't close one of these accounts within 24 months?

Is Citi custom cash considered a rewards card? I got it in dec 21 n 200 as cash rewards

Does anybody know how to look up if you had one of these cards and cancelled it? Honestly can't remember if I had one or not

Looks like this doesn't come with the usual promotional apr on cards. No interest free for any period?

I was approved for the Premier card, and then I was able to generate a virtual card number within the Citi website once the card was linked to my existing Citi account. The virtual card number appeared to work when I paid a random bill.

Any con to using this virtual card number until my real card arrives (e.g. purchases won't earn rewards or count toward the $4,0000 target or something stupid)?

There is no 'usual' promotional APR for new cards. Some cards offer a 0% or low APR, while many others do not. Generally, the cards that have those APR offers don't have large cash/points signup bonuses like this one.

Did not see my points posted yet, logged in and went to see point balance and beneath the point balance was:
You've earned
80,000 ThankYou® Points!

Out of $4000 you have $0 left to spend

Congratulations!
You've earned your new cardmember bonus!

Points earned will appear in your ThankYou Account at the end of the billing cycle in which they were earned.

Guess it is time to close the account unless there is some perk I am missing
