Got this offer by e-mail, but I think it's open to everyone. May be restricted to the following states:
I talked to Liz, so I'd recommend calling 866-495-1787 and asking for her. Otherwise, call 1-866-579-2393. Offer code is CY6U, and I believe it expires June 30.
I called yesterday (6/1) with a code that expired 5/31, but Liz found me the new one for June. Citi's checking accounts require a steep minimum balance to avoid monthly charges -- I believe the regular is $15,000 and the Citigold is $50,000, but they waived it for me because I have my mortgage with CitiMortgage. Liz sounded like the type that gets the points game, because she opened a savings account for me as well so that I start getting 900 TY points per month automatically in addition to the bonus points.
Link from my e-mail points here:

However, that link directs you to the regular checking account application. Monthly fee for regular checking is $20, CitiGold is $30, so it's totally worth the extra $10 since you get $20,000 more bonus points.
Here’s How It Works:
To qualify for your 20,000 ThankYou Points, first open a new regular checking account in The Citibank Account Package by 5/31/12 and enroll it in Citi ThankYou Rewards. Or, to qualify for your 40,000 ThankYou Points, first open a new regular checking account in a Citigold® Account Package by 5/31/12 and enroll it in Citi ThankYou Rewards.
Then, for either offer, 45 days after opening your regular checking account, perform both of the following qualifying activities each month and continue for two consecutive calendar months:
• Direct deposits
• Electronic bill payments
Hope this helps some folks!
