There was also a rumored 3/6 rule for Citi applications. But over the last year or so you probably need to be at 1/6 or even no cards in the last six months.
Citi Premier Card 80K Bonus: Guru’s Wrap-up
This is the best ever offer we have seen for the Citi Premier Card. That’s easily $800 in value (you can redeem for cash or statement credit) or even more if you transfer points to travel partners. The card itself is useful even after receiving the welcome bonus. You can earn 3X in popular categories such as Grocery stores, Gas stations and Restaurants.
If you have applied recently for the lesser 60,000 ThankYou points offer, then there’s still some hope. You can reach out to Citi and ask if they can match you to the new and improved offer. There’s no guarantee, but hopefully they will give you the extra 20,000 points. You can also try emailing them here CitiApplicationOfferIssues@citi.com.
