Not a fan of debit cards but for 10K miles, I could be persuaded to get one. Do you have a link?

$25 for 10k miles seems like a good enough reason to upgrade my Citibank debit card that I never use...

maybe i'm doing something else wrong, but i keep clicking on the link for the citibank/aadvantage debit card, and it gives me the thank you network error. i get it whether i directly click on the above posted link, navigate their directly off the front citi page or through my account-->account services-->upgrade debit card.

Question for all of you: I have several Citi credit cards, but no deposit accounts. So to manage my cards, I go to www.citicards.com.
I just signed up for a Citibank checking account, and it looks like I might be able to link my Citi credit cards in order to avoid monthly fees. However, it's a different login address (http://www.citibankonline.com).
How does it work for those of you who have both? Do you continue to use citicards.com to keep an eye on, and pay, your credit cards, and citibankonline.com for the other stuff? Or when you link them does everything get switched over to citibankonline?
If the latter is the case, is the interface the same? Can you still make payments with the stored bank info from those card accounts? Or does everything have to be paid with the Citibank checking account?
Sorry for the string of questions. I would like to get everything linked together, but I'm hesitant to change it if doing so will screw up the way I have things set up for my credit cards.

Great find OP. Does anyone know if you can do this for multiple Citi checking accounts to the same AA account? If so, this is great.
According to the terms, I interpret this as one bonus per Citi account, not per AA account.
You can earn 10,000 American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles by enrollment of a Citibank® / AAdvantage® Debit card during this promotional period. Limit one offer per account.

FYI, Citi ran a similar deal last year, except only 5k miles:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showt...ght=citi+debit
I can't remember why I didn't do it last time, but glad I didn't. ^
Apparently there were similar ThankYou Network error messages then too for new accounts. Also last time took about 4 months to post. I believe once you convert the card, you don't receive the TY Network points any more which could be a consideration for some people (with Citigold, 1200 pts/month x 4 months = $48+).

Nice - very nice! I previously had the Citi Card then switched to Thank You for a promo and now am back on AA from the promo!

Well... I had no Citi Banking Connection before, so I just opened up one online.
As far as I understand it, they issue a regular Banking Card and as soon as I have this one I have to log-in to transfer to the AAdvantage Card
This is quiet a waste of plastic & paper or do I miss something ?
