It's not enough to have a Premier account, you need to either
Share points from another account to your own Premier account -or- permanently
Combine your various ThankYou Rewards accounts into a single account. There are some benefits and limitations to both approaches. Here is the primary discussion thread for this topic:
Citi ThankYou Points (TYPs): airline and hotel transfer partners
Sharing can be done without any assistance, BUT you must be aware of the annual limit and the expiration policy.
ThankYou Point Sharing capped at 100,000 points per calendar year.
Combining your accounts can also be done online, but the software is unforgiving if there are any differences in the way your accounts are setup, and it may be easier to ask customer service.
