Yeah, I just found this out the other day too. I saw the split a while ago but did not think that meant when I hit 10K in total, that was it. I thought you would get 10K per card and the system just split the bonus equally between cards to not pile on Citi or Barkleys. I don't see where it says that anywhere, but once I hit 10K that was it. So if you have both cards, the limit is really 5K per year per card and not 10K. Citi, Barkley, and AA need to clarify that somewhere because I sure don't see it clearly stated anywhere.
I did call in to verify this. The funny thing is that the CK rep did not even know about the redemption bonus so I got transferred to CS where that rep explained to me (and the CK rep) what the policy is.

Mod note: I deleted an image from the OP, it was so unwieldy that it was hard to see on my computer. Please re-size and feel free to add back.

Not new news. This was resolved a couple months ago (after someone initially wondered if they would "stack"). See the wiki in this thread:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...solidated.html
It says:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...solidated.html
It says:
So if I have a qualifying Citibank card and and qualifying Barclays card, will I get double the rebate?
If you want to find the previous discussion on it, search for the word "stack" in the same thread.
No. As stated above, having more than one qualifying card does not increase your rebate.
Note that if you have at least one qualifying Citi card and at least one qualifying Barclays card, your rebate will be processed as two separate transactions with half attributed to each card. (For example, if you redeem 40,000 miles, you will see two separate AA mileage credits of 2,000 miles.)

If this is there, you'll get the discount.

Barclay/Citi 10% rebate
Since both barclay and citi cards both offer the 10% rebate on redeemed points, is it possible to get the 10% rebate for both cards? This may be possible if you have not combined your AA accounts (one card linked to each AA account) and have significant miles in each account to book some premium awards.
I unfortunately have combined my accounts so I am not in a position to answer this question but maybe someone on here can answer it. I have a family member that could potentially get 1250 miles or so extra back if this is the case.

I can't speak to gaming the system about having 2 AAdvantage Accounts.

Merged with existing thread discussing the Citi/Barclay's 10% rebate perq. Please help us keep our forum tidy by searching for extant threads first. Thanks!

), and maxed out my 10K rebate bonus. The interesting thing was there were 4 line items for the refunds, each @ 2500 miles a piece: 2 from Citibank and 2 from Barclays. The systems knows if you have both cards connected to your account, so you seemingly can't dupe it into refunding extra miles.

I just booked my first-ever AA travel award over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised to see that the 10% mileage rebate was credited to my AAdvantage account the same day as the ticketing. That's a much better timeframe than the 6-8 weeks promised in the Barclaycard Aviator Red welcome kit and other promo pieces.
