This is interesting. My husband's statement shows that he received the 50K bonus but he didn't. He called Citi who said the 50K will post in the following month after shown. The points posted for his spend. We'll wait for the next month to see if it posts before going into full investigative mode.
As questioned, the HH# is correct as my normal spend points from the billing period posted shortly after the statement cut.

I finally got a supervisor at Citi and they told me 8 weeks from Statement date for the bonus points. At least I know they're not lost in limbo, but I don't like that answer as in the past they have posted really quickly.

6 -8 weeks is the normal CSR reply. GL

"Accounts in good standing will eventually be moved to a new card account"
Which implies to me that it will be a new Citi card...though they could move/sell it to Amex as well. Be nice if they actually said so.

Has anyone converted their Hilton Signature Visa to another product yet ?
The only Citi cards I have open are three Hilton Visas and I would like to convert my oldest Hilton Visa to some sort of NAF card with Citi to keep the relationship open.
I am finishing up my last 40K spend so I would like to make the change as soon as the 40K points post as I don't want these cards converting to AMEX if that is the road Citi travels.
Thanks

My plan going forward is to now wait until there is more information as to Citi's plan for these accounts,before closing or converting my final HH visa.

I did it through chat. No inquiry involved. It's too recent for me to see if it will show as a new account. I don't know if the fact that it was a Visa and will now be a MC will cause it to eventually show as a new account.

I finally succeeded in getting mine converted to the Dividend MC. For some reason, I had to endure a high pressure sell for the Double Cash from several agents, lasting a good half hour in total, before they finally agreed to convert as requested. Maybe Citi should consider a sign-up bonus for the DC, if that card doesn't sell itself.

Au Contraire, the Costco card is in competition with every other Visa card out there. I shop at Costco frequently, and haven't given a thought to getting a Costco card. I either use whichever Visa I think I need to put spend on, or else use a new non-Visa card that I need to do min spnd with to buy a Visa GC, then pay with that at Costco.
