Thanks. Didn't realize my fly was unzipped there. I'll post a screenshot instead.

Also has your email address at the bottom of page. =)
But thank you for posting this.

This email was sent to XOXOXOXO because you subscribe to AAdvantage® promotions emails.

...OK I see you removed the original, and did a screenshot.

My 6 year old son got the 50+50 offer today. Same url link as the other. Someone new to the game could post a quick 330K miles.

It will be nice to learn from those who receive these mega offers if you had the cards before!

I had them all and got rejected on 4/20/10...laying low until I get better info on this offer.

Interestingly, my 6 yr and 12 yr old receive emails offering them only 30k miles...How about that Citibank, my kids are not worthy??

As I mentioned earlier, my mom got the 50/50 offer earlier today. Neither she now my dad were former Citi/AA cardmembers. They were both instantly approved for both cards, and will wait to hear on the business card.

I'm relatively new to the game, but churned 5-6 CitiAA cards last year and this spring before they pulled the plug. I still hold, and use a CitiAA Visa. Sure those were a nice 150K, but today's offer alone would've made up for that. What a shame....

I applied using the offers through my mom's e-mail (same links posted in this forum), but got no instant approvals--told I will be contacted in the next few weeks. I do not expect to get approved, and if I do, I really don't expect the bonuses...

Another Clue?

URL #1 as posted by WashParkRam in post # 65:
https://www.citicards.com/cards/acq/...?app=UNSOL&sc=4XKIW780&m=7QAEZZUBZZW&langId=EN&siteId=CB&B=S&screenID=30 01

URL #2 as posted by vu0219 in post #93:

https://www.citicards.com/cards/acq/...?app=UNSOL&sc=4XKIW780&m=7QAEZZUBZZW&langId=EN&siteId=CB&B=S&screenID=30 01
As you can see, they're exactly the same..

URL for the 100K total bonus:
https://www.citicards.com/cards/acq/...?app=UNSOL&sc=4XKIW730&m=7QAEZZUCZZW&langId=EN&siteId=CB&B=S&screenID=30 01

Note the slight difference in URL(bolded) between the 75K and 50K...

I think you're onto something here. The offer I got was only for 50K with $750 in purchases during the first four months. The critical portion of the URL link in my email is 4XKIW740, which is different from the ones you've posted above, which syncs with my offer being different from the others. As gleff said, one can always try the most favorable link, but if the bonus miles don't show, the original email one received is the only claim for resolution.

If you had a Citi AA card in the past, will Citi approve you, issue the new card but then not give the miles? Or will they tell you your app is denied b/c you had the card in the past?

I guess I'm one of the few sad sacks who got a 35K offer.

I might tamper with the link and apply for a 100K biz card. Not much to lose, especially since I expect to be denied. Further, I have two personal cards, and I don't feel like the issue of whether I'd be a new cardmember has been settled.

Same here. No targeted email yet for me. I am hoping I will be able to apply via one of the posted links but may wait a bit as I just got the SPG cards.

These look like great offers. I've been jealous of those folks that took advantage of the recent BA 100k bonus, so I was waiting for something like this to pull the trigger on a new card. I submitted my app with the 75k link, but need further processing for approval. Here's hoping that this works for the full bonus!

(1) Bonus Miles: This Citi® / AAdvantage® card offer is valid only for first-time Citi® / AAdvantage® cardmembers who apply pursuant to this offer for an account by October 31, 2010. The American Airlines AAdvantage® miles will appear as a bonus in your AAdvantage® account 8-10 weeks after you have met each purchase requirement.

The business card t&cs have the following language:

This offer is available only if the Business does not already have a CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® card and, within the previous 90 days, has not applied for or received a CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® card.

Could you please confirm exactly which card application link corresponds to which set of T&C. For example, when you say "regular visa and amex," are you in fact referring to the personal visa signature and amex cards? If so, then which link has the "first-time Citi® / AAdvantage® cardmembers" language.

Thanks.
