The new account information is NEVER coming at the same time the CC arrives. You would need to call Citi to find out or to call AA and give them your personal data and the AAdvantage rep should be able to find accounts associated with such personal data.
Thanks very much. No rush on getting an account as long as I know one is being created. I appreciate the help!
