Just converted my Flex Perks to this card. CSR claims should keep card history and no inquire. Card being sent out today. These dormant cards from AOR days just keep coming handy.

The CSR stated this was a new card and had to put me on hold to find out if it could be converted. I didn’t ask any questions knowing the answers would be a coin flip. New card is not showing online since it was just converted today. Once I have access to it I will find out more info.

CB is reporting no instant approvals so far. One member even had a FICO of 820.

New card is showing online today. 2-5% categories are the same as in OP. This quarter ends 6/30. New card is not showing a CL. I assume it won’t until I receive the card and activate it.

I don't think you have to use their billpay for the transaction to count for the bill payment category, but I may be wrong.

Looks like this is a 6.25% card if used right.
"$25 Cash+ Bonus for redeeming $100 or more in a single redemption"

@helpme, can you please elaborate what you're doing with citi typ?

HelpMe · « **Reply #56 on:** June 18, 2012, 09:11:14 AM »

Basically everything that is mention here and other forums. I am just pushing the limits a lot more which results in greater risks. I will try and put it in terms most here will understand. If I was doing this for sign up bonuses instead of doing a 2/3bm I would be doing a 9/10bm.

but if you're running heavy spend, what is the value of TYP specifically?

meshugener · « **Reply #58 on:** June 18, 2012, 06:53:35 PM »

There was a good CB offer about 2 month ago. Search for a thread HelpMe created for it, maybe its still avail.
