Interestingly though, I already had a limit > 30K last year when they offered the 50% increase, so perhaps one was not linked with the other.

I do think there are other factors at play here, they wanted to up limits before comprehensive reporting comes inn(because if your loans are large, the chances of other banks lending decrease and helps mitigate against switching), they knew that plans to degrade benefits were in the wings and wanted to bump up limits to compensate, etc.
 
I'm just below 30k and they attempted to encourage me up a few months ago......
Have not received email and probably don't want too..... If it turns into Amex acceptance for infinite?
No increase in points earn right?
Said bye to Free Amex edge today sob sob sob.... Not paying fees!
 
Got the email as well (infinite).

Has anyone managed to negotiate an upgrade to Prestige on a reduced rate from the start? Would take the upgrade at $350/year, but I can't justify $700....
 
They recently sent me an email offering to increase me credit limit to $35k on my Signature..I didn't act on it as with the points devaluation I'll just be hanging on to it for my back-up Visa card domestically. Seems like this Infinite upgrade isn't worth me accepting the upgrade to try and qualify for, assuming they aren't making further 'enhancements' to the regular signature?

You don't need to accept the "upgrade", Citi are jut notifying you of the change from "Visa Signature" to "Visa Infinite" - change is basically meaningless from a customer standpoint as pointed out in previous post, however you cannot "refuse" the change unless you cancel your card altogether...

Ah ok, got it, thanks. I'd read back a couple of pages and been reading about only people with credit limits >$30k getting the email / "upgrade" and others would be keeping the signature as is. But like you say, doesn't make a difference to me either way. If it was an offer to a discounted Prestige on the other hand..
 
I received the email changing my card to Infinite. I don't think it's a Prestige though.

I'm Signature fee free for life. No mention of that status changing...
 
Changes are occurring so rapidly with CCs.
Can anyone advise me if QFF pts are still awarded for ATO payments?
 
Hmm, never got an email about the upgrade to infinite. My limit is a little over 30k, thoguh that was only recently.

Looking in my email history there was a limit increase offer back in aug that i missed. Kinda wish i took it as i recently put my card on a 0% 6M BT offer.
 
I've missed a number of calls from Citibank the last few days, I wonder what they could possibly be trying to ring me about!

Perhaps you should ring back and ask them? :cool:

Seriously, it could be something urgent (e.g. suspicious activity detected on your card) if they called you several times over a few days...

I did tried to ring (that's how I knew who it was), the message was we tried to ring you but its not urgent. I have checked my account, no obvious suspicious activity (well not suspicious to me anyway).

Probably trying to flog you something.

If it was suspicious activity my experience is that they would flag this in the message left, plus they have always also sent me an email.
