American Express Membership Rewards - Citi Amex upgrade to Centurion?View Full Version : Citi Amex upgrade to Centurion? vikp Oct 5, 08, 1:09 pm I'm looking at obtaining a Centurion in the future. I was wondering if having a Citi Amex card for 1 year/250K etc... would qualify as min. requirements for obtaining a Centurion. I like the Citi Amex since I am partial to AAdvantage program. Can you upgrade from any affiliate Amex card or does it have to be one direct from Amex? Thanks. gleff Oct 5, 08, 1:18 pm Spend on a citi amex will not help. gleff Oct 5, 08, 1:19 pm Spend on a citi amex will not help. stratofortress Oct 5, 08, 2:02 pm Can you upgrade from any affiliate Amex card or does it have to be one direct from Amex? Thanks. Has to be an American Express-issued card. Furthermore, I'm pretty sure it has to be a charge card, so even something like the Delta Skymiles or SPG cards wouldn't qualify... vikp Oct 5, 08, 2:06 pm Thanks for the responses.

Does not matter which type as long as they are paid charges ($250K spend and paid.) meinside99 Oct 5, 08, 6:45 pm I believe the $250K spend applies to all Amex issued cards. Does not matter which type as long as they are paid charges ($250K spend and paid.) You are 100% correct. Requirements: One year tenure as an AMEX-issued cardholder (card type doesn't matter) and 250k spending....thats it.... but if it could only be that easy :( |
