He put me on hold for a moment and returned and said that he did not have the ability to change my offer as 30k miles was the best he had in his "toolkit". He said it was entirely possible that this is a brand new offer and his group has not yet received training material on it (which I could believe...or not.) He did not know if he would ever have an offer like that available in his toolkit.


I asked if I could apply for the card again for the 75k mile offer and if so would I be eligible for the offer - he said yes, all offers are independent of each other. I'm not so sure about that because I believe the terms always say offer is valid only for first-time Citi/AAdvantage cardmembers. So who knows.
