I also heard from one site that Citi will not sell the portfolio to AMEX, rather a new Citi card will be issued (my guess is a Thank You point product).
This (FTF) seems is a big issue as well in the other thread started by Lauren. But I'm confused. I hold a personal Platinum card and don't pay foreign transaction fees. It is clearly listed in the benefits. Since this is my only AMX card I've never given it much thought.
It this something to do with the co-branded cards? Or is it hit and miss by the product?
FWIW
