Is it out of the question to just call Citi and ask for the promotion over hte phone or have them email it to you?

Ironically, this only days after she got an offer by mail for the 35K bonus. I almost got her to sign up for that one!

I too just signed up for the Citi AA biz card for 35k. Didn't receive this targeted offer so not too bummed (yet).
I think I've heard that you're limited to one personal card and one biz card regardless of whether you choose Visa, Mastercard or Amex.
On a similar note, what's the difference between Visa and Mastercard? Why/how can anyone pick one over the other?

only targeted, no links? no referral??
Good thing I held on before applying for the 35,000 bonus miles. I am signed up on their mailing list but haven't received nothing as of yet. I never had a AA CC but already received a 30,000 bonus miles postal mail offer. Maybe I am not that much of a "target".
Really hard to beat that 75,000 bonus miles for $1,500 spending in 6 months!!

My better half just got an offer for 40K... links don't appear to be targeted beyond some basic coding and information is NOT pre-filled out.

Citicards now offers their cards with a restriction for first time Citicard cardmembers. My interpretation is one of each type of card ie Visa, MC, Amex, personal and business. It may take a supervisor to confirm you sign up bonus eligibility.
I don't think anyone really knows what the rule is yet.

If it isn't targeted can anyone share the links?
or would one be able to call citi and ask to apply for such promotion?

Of course this has to happen after I applied for the 35k offer last night. I have impeccable timing!

, perhaps you can get them to change your offer to a better one before activation.
