At the moment my credit report available credit doesn't reflect the limit of my Citi or Amex card so it slightly skews my utilization.

That was the main reason. I also have a lot of spend I have to get in on my Delta Am Ex cards to keep my status so the extra credit with Am Ex helps. I am also planning on getting an Aspire after my anniversary night and the free night posts and I don't want two hard pulls on my credit.

I had the exact opposite happen to me. Credit Karma reported I had a closed account, my Citi Hilton Honors card on 1/30. I still haven't received the Amex Hilton card that was to replace it, they sent it to the wrong address and said they'd send it to the right one in a few days. Yesterday, Nerdwallet reported that my credit score had gone UP by 10 points. Weird.

Not sure if this is the best place to discuss, but I kept my Citi Reserve because I covered the $10G+ annual spend months ago and my anniversary date was mid January. It was also my oldest card, and already had the AMEX card it was being transitioned to. Sorta between a rock and a hard place. But I still haven't received the email giving me my free night from Citi. Anyone else in a similar situation? I guess I'll give Citi a call in a few more days if I don't get anything. Anyone have .02?
Thanks,

My citi anniversary date is until sometime this summer (It was whenever Citi rolled out the reserve card) and I received an email this morning congratulating me on $10K in spend on my am ex card (even though I never used it) so I'm assuming it's from the citi spend. Thing is now is to decide to get the aspire or try to put $15K more in spend in for another free night.
The email gave me a code I'm suppose to use to redeem. I can't see it posted in my account but I may be looking in the wrong spot.
