Before that I did sporadic MS on the DCs. 0.5x CL some months, some months none at all, 1x CL very infrequently if I had more free time than usual. Total MS never exceeded my reported income. All payments came from 2 CU accounts.

Been a Citi cardholder for 10 years and 2015 was one of the mildest MS years I've had in a long time. I'm 99% positive MS triggered the shutdown, but the timing seems odd.

I'm beginning to wonder if my recent BBVA approval had anything to do with it. They gave me a pretty large CL so maybe Citi didn't like my total revolving credit. That would somewhat explain my surviving account but I can't find any datapoints to support that hunch.
How did you make payments to your Citicards?

Tend to agree the level of MSing does not seem out of line. There are something else involved.
