Got a targeted 50,000 offer. Had Silver earlier due to another promo. Never slept in a Hilton.




YOU HAVE 2,500
HILTON HHONORS™
POINTS AS OF
04/30/2011.

YOU COULD HAVE

52,500

HHONORS POINTS.
   
*If you do not meet Citi's criteria for the Visa Signature card, your application may be processed for the Gold card. The Gold card does not carry the same level of benefits as the Visa Signature card.

Dear Benchik,

As a Silver tier member, make your Hilton HHonors membership work harder for you. Apply* for the Citi Hilton HHonors Visa Signature card. Get the card and you can:

   Earn 50,000 HHonors Bonus Points after making US$1,500 in
   purchases within the first 6 months of opening an account.
   
   Pay no annual fee.+
   
   Relax with points that may never expire.
   
   No cap on HHonors points.
   
   With HHonors Silver Status, get 15% bonus on Base Points.
   
   Get fast-tracked for HHonors Gold Status after 6 stays within
   your first 90 days of cardmembership. Gold members receive:
   
   
   
   25% bonus on Base Points.
   Complimentary in-room high-speed internet access.



   
So make your membership more beneficial and get the Citi Hilton HHonors Visa Signature card.
Apply online or call: 1-800-477-1606 by June 30, 2011*.

*If you do not meet Citi's criteria for the Visa Signature card, your application may be processed for the Gold card. The Gold card does not carry the same level of benefits as the Visa Signature card.

+ As of May 1, 2011, the standard variable APR for purchases—14.24% for the Citi Hilton HHonors Visa Signature card or 16.24% for the Citi Hilton HHonors Visa gold card, based on your creditworthiness. For both cards: The standard variable APR for cash advances—25.24%. The variable Penalty APR is up to 29.99% and may be applied if you make a late payment or make a payment that is returned. The annual fee is US$0. Minimum interest charge—US$.50. Fee for foreign purchases—3% of each purchase transaction in US dollars. Cash advance fee– either US$10 or 5% of the amount of each cash advance, whichever is greater. Balance transfer fee—either US$5 or 3% of the amount of each transfer, whichever is greater.

(1) Points will appear on your Hilton HHonors account within four to six weeks of the qualifying purchase.

(2) Cardmember must complete six qualifying stays within first 90 days of cardmembership to achieve HHonors Gold Status. Once a member reaches Gold status, it will remain in effect for the calendar year in which the Gold status was earned and the subsequent calendar year. Thereafter, the standard requirements must be met to maintain Gold status. Visit HHonors.com/terms for complete Terms and Conditions.

(3) Base Points are defined by Hilton HHonors in the HHonors Terms and Conditions.

(4) Provided that the Hilton HHonors member takes one of the following actions within a 12 consecutive month period (1) stay at a hotel within the Hilton Worldwide portfolio, (2) earn HHonors points through any third party source of HHonors point accumulation, or (3) purchase HHonors points. For complete details, visit HHonors.com/terms.

(5) Hilton HHonors Bonus Points are earned on purchases, except returned goods and services, cash advances, convenience checks, transferred balances, credits, fees and interest charges.

(6) Supermarkets are stand-alone merchants that primarily sell a complete line of food merchandise for home consumption. Drugstores are stand-alone merchants that sell prescription and proprietary drugs and non-prescription medicines. Gas stations are stand-alone merchants that sell vehicle fuel for consumer use. Purchases made at warehouse clubs, discount stores, department stores and convenience stores do not qualify. We do not determine whether merchants appropriately identify the transactions, but we do reserve the right to determine which purchases qualify for the 3 HHonors Bonus Points per dollar spent on these categories.

(7) Please visit HHonors.com for your current point balance.

I have the link for 50,000, if anyone want's it. I never heard of Citi doing matches, but it doesn't hurt to try.

My link doesn't show any details, but that's because its the actual application page. I might well be targeted. It did say that its for Silver members.

https://www.citicards.com/cards/acq/Apply.do?app=UNSOL&sc=FPSHY4E1&m=2HEMF03030W&langId=EN&siteId=HHONORS&B=S&uc=AE4&s1=FGPHY4F1&d1=D&o1=02&B1=P&screenid=3004&wt.mc_id=CMEM_BN3dGPB8bD61Bv

I really don't want to take away any referral bonuses from Dan though.

I had AA Platinum MasterCard that I downgraded a year or two ago to Bronze. I want to apply for the 75K AA Visa and Amex offers now... do I need to cancel the bronze MC first, or can I leave it open?

Is silver status really worth anything with Hilton? My understanding is that gold with Hilton gets you pretty much the same upgrades as diamond. Silver does not. That's pretty much why I had my wife get an Amex Hilton and throw 20k spend/yr on it for the gold.

AFAIK, you can't get gold with spending on the Citi Hilton visa....

Silver gets you discount VIP awards if nothing else.
Gold is no great shakes either.
