It's actually a pretty stingy offer.

All they've done is added the bonuses together for opening a CC and a Citibank account under the AA promotion and finally getting the premium AA debit card ($65 annual fee BTW, and it isn't waived at all unless your Citigold), then tossed in 1000 points for the linking the CC to your bank account.

However, they're only giving you the 25K sign on bonus for the CC.

If you signed up for the 30K offer, and did everything else the same but independently and not under this offer code, you'd be ahead by 4K miles:

30K sign on bonus for CC
20K Citibank Bank Account with AAdvantage promotion
4K bonus for Premium AA Debit card
___
54K total

vs this offer only giving 50K total
