noticed this when logging into my forward account, on the sidebar and under "view special offers." just click through and hit "agree" and you should get a confirmation message that it will be valid in 1-2 days.
can't direct link because it has account ids and soforth, but here's a screen attached.
wowsie! just logged into my account and saw this promo. Thanks a ton OP. using an online aggregator for all my financial accounts, I rarely log into each of my credit/banking accounts and would've definitely missed this deal. cannot thank you enough.
Received a snail mail and email invite for a similar program: 25 additional points for every $100 dollars spent. Does that match the fine print of your offer OP?

I got this offer and was bugging out since I initially thought it said an extra 25 points per $. When I realized it was only an extra .0025% back I was pretty disgusted at citi for wasting my time.

ah, no it didn't; it basically just said for every point i earn, i get an additional .2 points, i believe..so i assume that's on top of the regular category bonuses. i've never tracked them really closely; i just assume they're doing me right, heh. :X haven't gotten to check my snail mail since last week though (i live at a different address), but i'll report back if i spot anything.

I got a similar offer for my Citi Diamond Preferred Rewards card. Too bad that card is useless (unless you recently signed up and got the limited time 5 points on gas, groceries, and drugs).
For impasse, had you been using your Forward card a lot lately? Just wondering if they were targeting people who hadn't been charging much on their cards.
If this is the same offer I got about 9 months ago on my mtvU, it's only a 20% bonus on your base (1%) TY points. So the best you'll get is 5.2% back. I'll take the extra 0.2%, but just saying it's not as great as one might expect.

ah, yeah it's my main card, though i typically try to limit my purchases to the bonus categories. just finally got the email a day or two ago, with a specific invitation code on it.
In slightly related news, I got a snail mail today saying that I would receive an extra 20% CashBack on my Citi Dividend Platinum Select, until January 31, 2011. This would take my 1% CashBack to 1.2%, which is nice because I don't have a Schwab card. However, my 5% rotating quarterly will only go to 5.2%.
All I had to do was call an automated system, input my promo code, listen to some terms and conditions, and confirm.
My wife & I both have this card. She got the offer & I didn't. I've been a member since '93 and she since '95. You would think they would reward me also...

I got the same offer. Unfortunately, it seems that it's only on the 1% base spend, so wouldn't count on the 5% bonus Cash Back purchases.
