how would I know if it's even open?
But yes fro the Citi Costco FAQ:
4% cash back on up to $7,000 in gas purchases each year from Costco and other gas stations, not including those at other warehouse clubs.
Been using the Chase Freedom for the 5% though and not the Costco Citi. FYI, use the Costco Citi for Costco Gas as the Freedom's 5% bonus does not apply to the gas purchase.
Wasn't there communication from AmEx saying that you'd lose access to your card or account (if this was your only AmEx) the day the switch happened?
Yes.
But I should have been more clear about the context in my post.
It was in regards to just doing this last month's billing & noticing the associated PDF was available to download - which I put off until I had finished my recon.
But the moment I paid, the PDF for this last bill disappeared.
Quite odd.

Coincidentally, I applied for & received another Citi managed co-branded card from American Airlines the same week the Costco card flipped to Citi.
That was a mess too.
One would think Citi has gotten that (AA) relationship ironed out.
But as with the Costco card numerous problems occurred for me:
They denied 3 online charges right off the bat for suspicious activity WITHOUT Calling me or notifying me via email. I only found out after I checked on the status of the shipments & went into review the online Citi account & saw a little note they casually left to call them them because my future charges may be affected.
In the meanwhile, they still let go through a bunch of other charges. Huh?!
Citi AA also couldn't get the Apple Wallet app to add my AA card so I had to call in & they jerry rigged it on their end & told me to reinstall the app.
Thought all was swell.
Even used Apple pay on a couple of purchases.
Then one of the aforementioned online issues came to light & upon calling their fraud detection center, they blamed it on some unusual activity with my Apple Pay account.
So, they had me uninstall & reinstall it & flipped something on their side.
At this point I was beyond flabbergasted & ask to speak to a manager.
The CSR told me his manager would call me back. 3 weeks later - nothing.
At this point, after 3 weeks as a Citi AA card holder - they have made me feel unwanted, frustrated, and not very confident of their abilities.
My one recourse was a very timely survey that came in the mail where I totally detailed my issues with the AA card handling & I basically said I would rip them a new one whenever I can whether to friends, family or strangers on the net & social media.
It's the 21st century - we deserve to be treated like Lexus customers not suspicious criminals.

Not sure if this answer is in the context of your query but all I did was go to the Citi Costco dedicated activation site to start using the card once June 20th came around without signing or calling anyone.
It was a pleasant surprise to see CB breakdowns for the current statement. AmEx used to lag by a cycle.
Also do all Visa CC (e.g. Chase Freedom) provide extended warranty or limited to Visa Signature CC only?
Thank you!
