So, how long do you think it will be until your SS# is unbanned at citi (if ever)? Have you pulled your credit report to see how this/these accounts are reflected there? Curious how they closed them.

While you got 16 months worth of churning done in 1.5 months.. I'm guessing you'll be on the sidelines for a bit of time.
"Security closure" is a red herring -- Citi knows exactly what's going on, and calling it a security closure is just a convenient excuse so they don't have to use the real reason (which is basically "we don't want to pay out on the deal we advertised").
