That would actually be a good benefit that could justify the higher AF for me. And I wonder if the first 10k LP boost would count toward achieving the 90k LP boost (at which point earning 80k LPs would translate into 100k LP banked)

Just got a survey from a marketing research firm on Citi's behalf for the Exec card. They basically showed the Exec card with a ton of new benefits and new price tag. This was the first one they showed and most expensive. Was not impressed with any of the added offerings.

What confidentiality agreement? There wasn't one in the body of the email nor the survey itself. Citi is welcomed to sue me....one thing I am long is family members with law degrees. Honestly they should be paying me for putting this out there. If 100% of the online chatter about a product is negative....maybe the product isn't as good as they think.

It probably wouldn't cause me to cancel, but would be a major downgrade for me and would make very little difference in crowds. Both of our college aged kids are AU mostly because they use my card for certain purchases and I want the points. Only once have they used it to access the club and they were with us and had to since I could only bring in two guests without one of them showing a card. My wife is also an AU. She rarely flies without me, but has a few times this year to visit her aging parents. She has popped into the club a couple times on those trips when her layover is around 2 hours. So if they charge for AU's, I would probably pay for my wife and drop my kids and put them on one of my other cards. I may end up dropping her as well, I guess it just depends on the deal. So in the long run, it may cost AA money as far as my family goes, as their credit card spend would all end up elsewhere.

I guess worst thing that could happen is they cancel your CC.

you must have gotten a different survey then. Nothing in my survey had any legalese at all. Even if it did, I'd still post it. It's not like posting the code from the president's "football". I figure if JonNYC still is posting (who has way more "top secret" info)...... I'm probably pretty safe. If not and they cancel my Exec card,I guess i'll get the Aviator card for the 10th time

Just pointing out - I guess some people ignore confidentially agreements - that is why there are so many leaks around Washington DC.
I have never taken a survey before that was so specific on the confidentially. You had to answer a questionaire to determine if you were eligible to take the survey before it started. One question was you agreed not to share the information on social media and other public forums. If you said no - then you would have been kicked out before the survey started.
I am not sure if that was a good idea on Citi's part - some companies purposely leak information to get feedback before they formally annouce it. Happens here on flyertalk with posts from Jon (previously) and Gary as they have connections and receive leaks - like newsreporters.
This survey came out beginning of June and their were no leaks until recently. I am sure many others on FT got the survey and observed the confidentially.
As the OP says - they did not have to check the box for confidentially - so if it was reissued and received 4 months after June - maybe Citi opened it up so it would make its way here.
I would have posted myself if there was no restriction. No fault here to the OP.

From the email which I received announcing this promotion:
1 Loyalty Point per eligible AAdvantage® mile 1 Loyalty Point accrues for every eligible AAdvantage® mile earned on purchases, excluding balance transfers, cash advances, checks that access your credit card account, items and services returned for credit, unauthorized charges, interest and account fees, traveler’s checks, purchases of foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers (and similar cash-like transactions), lottery tickets, and gaming chips (and similar betting transactions). Eligible AAdvantage® miles include the base miles earned on purchases, and do not include any bonus miles or accelerators. Loyalty Points may be earned on miles on purchases made by primary credit cardmembers and authorized users. Loyalty Points earned will be posted to the primary credit cardmember’s AAdvantage® account in 8 to 10 weeks.
