[QUOTE="NickPFD, post: 20305, member: 3"] I should have mentioned this in [URL='http://saverocity.com/pfdigest/travel-free-completely-wrong-citi-double-cash-plus-couple-boardingarea-word-clouds/']my post from earlier today[/URL], but one thing to keep in mind with that new 2% card is that Citi’s credit card unit has not been a tightly run ship. They had the Cash Returns unlimited 5% fiasco a while back, the very generous Citi Amex Platinum, unlimited AA card churning, unlimited 5% ThankYou Points, applications mistakenly left open for years after the fact, and so forth. In short: Citi is pretty stupid. Maybe that’s changed. Maybe they’ve got new management in there that’s cleaned things up and inspired the troops. I have no idea.
