.yeah, my thought exactly, however they forgot one super important piece. METAL

I mean the sapphire preferred has it's fair share of issues, for example No raised numbers, meaning some hotels overseas will refuse to accept that card because an imprint can't be made etc, BUT almost everyone is willing to overlook that because of the Metal design

Point is, everything involves trade-offs and I am ok with that, BUT what's citi's excuse on this one?
