I was citigold at time of app in June, no longer - primary cardholder was only 350 instead of 400, but I didn't get any discounts on AU fees.

From my experience, only the primary cardholder gets the Global Entry fee credit.

Is the global entry fee credit automatic? I've signed up for it and got provisionally approved, interview next week. Already charged the card.

If you already have Global Entry, a Prestige AU's Global Entry fee can be reimbursed for $100.

If you are CitiGold, the fee for the card and for the AU card is reduced.

The Airport Angel lounges are mainly outside the US, but many have free beer and hard liquor and food (been to 3 already).

I'll post more as I play with this toy.
Has anyone tried AA gift cards? I am going to give it a try to see if I get the reimbursement, but just wanted to see if anyone has any first hand knowledge.

To be clear, are you saying an AA gift card purchase of <$100 was reimbursed to your Citi Prestige account?

Thanks in advance for clarifying.

Global Entry fee (for primary) was credited the same month as my charge. No credit for second accountholder. It was very handy when flying back from Canada.

I just purchased two $98 Economy Comfort seats on United (as two separate transactions), we shall see how long it takes to get my credit.

I have the Premiere card and the Prestige card. I am already disappointed the domestic companion ticket is going away on the Premiere, I hope they don't take away the 15% discount on the Prestige. I do use that discount when flying alone.

$50 United Club one-time pass

Had anyone ever bought the $50 United Club one-time pass and got reimbursed? Thinking of buying a couple for my kids to get in.

Hey to buy the Delta e-certs, do I just buy 2 $100 ones and I'll get credited for it? in separate transactions?

Another success - An AA 500 mile upgrade certificate purchase was auto-reimbursed.
