5. $100 AF vs $150 AF is easily surpassed by a $2,500 annual spend on dining and entertainment
I've got the $350 AF by virtue of applying for the Prestige in-branch, so it's a $100 AF for me. I basically look at it as getting me Priority Pass with two guests for $100 a year which is a screaming deal.

CSR wouldn't give me any real long-term advantages over the Citi card.
