ALL Citi HHonors application links are now DEAD.

sorry if this is a stupid questions and I am missing the obvious answer - I see the the wiki and some posts mention a 24 month waiting period, but other posts say 18 months - which is it? or do different cards have a different period? I am 16 months out from my last citi hilton cancellation (I think I did 7 of them to churn for our honeymoon)
Things are always changing in the world of points & miles, so if you see conflicting posts, please check when those posts were made, they may have been accurate at the time they were made but are no longer so.

Are you going to try for a match? I didn't even know a no-24 link was back up.

Do you have an open Hilton card? Just wondering because we were denied 2x in the fall with a no-24 link, yet we can churn AA cards. I was thinking maybe it was our open Citi Hilton cards.

I can say from experience there's no problem with having multiple HH cards open, and I know from his prior posts that flyer4512 has had several open at the same time. He's basically the king of churning the HH card. Citi is so YMMV with everything, it's hard to know what to expect, but I wouldn't be deterred from trying again for an HH card if you want another.

I have a HH Visa that has been open since 2012. At one time I had over a dozen HH Visas open but closed them all ( except my oldest) last year.
What reason did they give fore denying you the HH Visa ? If they will approve an AA there is no reason why they wouldn't approve a Hilton Visa.

I suspect that everyone knows that the 40K offer works - no one has reported that it does not work. The only DP that I believe anyone would be really interested in is if it DOES NOT work. By keeping reporting "good" results and bumping up this thread, all everyone is doing is promoting the application and hastening Citi shutting it down.

We have had similar offers for 17-18 months now, one link die a new one shows up and so on, i am sure it is safe to report data every now and then specially when we use new links that others have not had experience with.

As was posted above this is like the 4th (or maybe even more) 40K link without 24 month language be posted so I'm not sure if anyone has used it successfully as my last 40K card was from November using a different link
I'll pass on the data points ( good or bad) from now on to make you happy
