Once again reported that all links with sign up bonus are dead. Reported on Dec 5, and again on Dec 10.
Reported on Nov 4, 2017 that no offers for a Prestige card with any sign up bonus at all exist anymore. The links below do not work. Even if you get to a landing page, the link to the app page will list either "page not found", or "system error". You might want to check back at some point, since the sign up bonus for the Premier disappeared for a while, and is now back (although for only 30K instead of 50K).
Prestige Cards have a $450 annual fee, not waived first year.
There is also an additional fee for each additional user.
Top Prestige Card Offers
1) 75k Bonus Landing Page after $7,500 spend in 3 months. $450 fee Not Waived first year
2) 50k Bonus Landing Page/rightclick/incognito mode after $5000 spend in 3 months, $450 fee Not Waived first year; This offer will only show in incognito mode, it has to be a new session, as the offer, app link won't load otherwise.
3) 40K Bonus 4k in 4months
Other, not so good, offer:
Application page for Citi Prestige MC offer for 40K miles after $4000 spend in 3 months $450 fee Not Waived first year, No landing Page for this link.

hmm all the links in the wiki seem to be dead... well atleast the 75k & 40k.. the middle link works but goes to the current Citi Prestige offer which is literally just the card w/no sign up bonus. yep 0 pts for a $450 price.
anyone know of or have another working link? I know some folks spider crawl or codify zombie links, keep em as reserve when current links die. would appreciate one right about now.

Yeah. So i think back to what i said originally that AF must be on Dec 1 or later. I thought Citi does prorate, but I havent done this before since the AF card I have with Citi - I renew them every yr and willingly pay the AF, or get a sweet retention to offset.

Well, I'm not known for being patient 
. I received UPS notice of delivery for tomorrow, so I figured that is either card or welcome letter but in either case it should also mean that the card number and other things SHOULD be in their system now, right? So out of the options given in one of the posts the only thing I could do is call customer service. The automatic system recognized me based on last 4 of new number including new security word. Good! I reached a rep and ask: until when do I have to meet the minimum spend for my bonus points. Answer was: you need to spend 7.5k for 75k points and you have until 1/14/18 to do so.

Answer was: you need to spend 7.5k for 75k points and you have until 1/14/18 to do so.Anyway, now with the card in hand I called Citi one last time and they again confirmed without hesitation that the 75k offer was on the card and the date I have until I need to meet my spend.
So my 'datapoint' would be.... Applied on 9/30/2015 EST and then again on 10/1/2017 12:12am EST (which got me approval email stating I got approved 9/30/2017 since they are in CST) and got the offer both times!
Which makes sense to me since 24 month or 2 years means 9/30/15, 9/30/17, 9/30/19, etc. And it seems like Citi counted the same way.
Moot point now since the offer is gone. Seems like I also cut it close on that part!
Good luck.

As of now the 75k splash page works but the application link does not. Assuming this offer (or another one I want) gets up and running again soon, here's my question:
I opened a Thank You Premier account on 10/26/15.
We're delighted to let you know you've been approved for the Citi ThankYou Premier Card, with a credit limit of $XXX. Your account is considered open as of today, 10/26/15.I got a retention offer after the first year and kept the card. So I could apply for the Prestige on 10/27 and I would be eligible for the bonus. HOWEVER, at some point in the last 2 years Citi fraud detection closed the card and sent a new one with a different account number. Will Citi count this date as the start of the 24 month timer, or when I was first approved for the card?

The first card needs to be open to get the bonus the second time. The terms state that you cannot receive a bonus if you have opened or closed a thank you product in the last 24 months. I probably could close the first Prestige now and maybe get a pro rated annual fee return, but there's no reason for me to do so -- I get a new $250 statement credit next year and I got a retention offer that gives me $50 statement credits over the next few months, which easily pays for my $350 annual fee.

I'll get $250 back after Jan 1st in airline statement credits, and another $100 when I renew my Global Entry, so the AF is a wash. Then before the next AF I will open a second Prestige, then close the first one when the fee comes due.

My first statement has closed. How long is it before my Thank You points are shown?

You should cancel the first one as soon as you have gotten the credits. Don't wait for the fee to come due, you want to start your clock as soon as possible. (Assuming you intend to hold onto the new Prestige for 24 months+)
