My Maths doesn't take me to the level to work this out but I guess 1st installment should go to HSBC (approx $16,500) and 2nd to CITI.
Yes you're right. It takes about 107k spending for Citi $3/mile to be better than HSBC 10k am + $4.16/am

Cos their promos are ad hoc, interact and the t&c changes from one iteration to the next.
