    CITIBANK Gold to Platinum Free Upgrade WARNING

    I'm not sure whether i missed something on the letter telling me i was eligible for the free upgrade but i'm 99% certain it said you wouldn't need to update your direct debits linked to the old gold card number. I just got a failure notice from AGL (gas) along with a note saying they'll be...

    Citibank upgrading fee free Gold to fee free Platinum

    yeh, out of spite...these days 95% of my transactions (both business and personal) are put through my plat amex anyway. I've been with citibank since 99, i'd be hopeful if they did do something and i said i'd leave they'd offer waiver. Failing that, yeh i think i'd leave.

    Citibank upgrading fee free Gold to fee free Platinum

    hmmm you've got a point, i've already accepted the offer but it could just be a big ploy to get all those people (like myself) that were on free for life gold cards to start paying again. If they ever try and charge me any annual fee whatsoever i'll be gone SO FAST. you've got me worried now.

    Citibank upgrading fee free Gold to fee free Platinum

    FYI...when i called to activate earlier today the guy (useless citibank call centres) asked me whether i had the silver or gold previously in relation to the plat upgrade, so looks like they're doing this with silver/golds/men/women/children/pets... very strange!

    Citibank upgrading fee free Gold to fee free Platinum

    How to get Chairman's Lounge Membership ?

    apologies if this has already been covered but did someone indicate they obtained CL status purely because their parents had it? I'd be very interested to hear about this as i'm sick of transferring points to dad's account ;)

    ok got a little bit of info for this one... they reeled off a whole bunch of hotel names over the phone, seems like most peppers hotels, citigate hotels and a few sebels (no, not the good one in sydney :)) they also said that some may require more than one night stay, so one free night and...

    New Option for Plat Credit Card - Free Hotel night

    when they release the hotel list can someone post up? i called last week and he was happy for me to say a hotel name and he'd tell me if it were on the list but wasn't willing to email me the list (said it'd be released shortly)

    Amex Platinum Credit Card and Platinum Business Charge Card

    Hi there - i appreciate the reply. The business should have excellent history and has been around for 3+ years. Also the application seemed to be more focused on me than the business which i thought was odd. I spoke to them today and the guy seemed surprised they declined me (when he was...
