A few with planned babies, marriages,moves, etc. may be able to get a small benefit from having credit protector when these occur, but given all the other things that happen with marriages, babies, moves, layoffs etc. it is labor intenisve (when a new baby, job hunting, a house move, are keeping you very busy) to do the work required to actually collect the small beneifts you are entitled to.


The required work to claim most life benefits is to call them and tell them you're experiencing a life event. When I claimed a moving event with my Dividend Platinum and mtvU, they didn't even need proof. The minimum payment was paid on both cards for two months and I cancelled the day after the second credit protector credit posted on each account. Saved me about $90 (not including the $55 in credit protector check/rebate) and I didn't pay a dime in credit protector fees.

If you know you have a life event coming up, take advantage of credit protector!

Did they play the claim submission game with you?

First, I had to send in an incentive selection form. Next I received the requested selection form which I completed/filed in order to receive the third and final (real) claim form. Three mailings for one incentive is nuts. This is an obvious ploy to reduce the claim rates and I almost ditched it myself after receiving the second intermediate form!

I just mailed the original $40 certificate with a $40+ receipt. But I didn't receive my $25 check from them last year (that's the last check for the $100 rebate.)

If one citi card is enrolled, does that mean all other citi cards also enrolled? Or other citi cards not affected?

I assume it will only apply to one card only since you are only allowed to enter 1 card number.

Yes. I had both of my dividend and at&t universal enrolled b4.

Enrolled my AAdvantage card, which I just shelved after spending the $250 requirement in 2 months. It's going to be tough coming up with $100 in gas receipts myself. I guess I'll have to pull a few out of the garbage at a gas station. Thanks OP. Let's hope they're not up to falsely advertising the coupon again.

im in for the $100

got four gift certificates today. But you have to send the certificates back along with the gas receipt by Dec 31 2006 in order to get $100 check.
$400 gas in two months? A little hard to make that.
Anyway, citi is fast and it is true that you can get $100 gas certificate by signing up the program.
Cheers!

I got a single $100 certificate today as well. So glad they didn't play the multiple-submission game.

Note my previous post 5 days prior.

Does it have to be a one-time $100 purchase or accumulative to $100?

Does anyone know why Citi Professional can't enroll?

Why $400?


alert mods    

Accumulate to $100 but must submit within 30 days of purchase, so be prepared to fuel multiple cars/collect receipts from friends/pull the one from Costco pump that the previous user didn't take/etc.


alert mods    

Do you have to make the purchase with your enrolled credit card?

Thanks.
