10k CitiReward pts for opening Plus acct & deposit 2x$3k (maybe targeted, ends 31/07)

[wafliron]

Not technically a "credit card" promotion, but I thought it was worth posting and this seemed the most appropriate forum.

Just had the following offer land in my inbox:

We'd like to invite you to open a Citibank Plus account today. It is fast and easy to apply. By answering a few questions, you can start enjoying the benefits every day.

It's Australia's only fee free everyday bank account and offers:

• free international transfers to any account in the world1
• free and instant Citibank Global Transfers between Citibank accounts in over 25 countries2
• fee free ATM withdrawals at over 3,000 ATMs nationally and 20,000 Citibank ATMs globally3
• a free bottle of wine every time you dine at any Citibank Dining Program restaurant4.

As an existing Credit Card customer, you'll receive 10,000 Citibank reward points, when you deposit $3,000 for two consecutive months into your new Citibank Plus account5.

It's easy to apply. Visit citibank.com.au/plusrewards or call us on 1300 141 081.

Hurry, this offer ends on 31 July 2012.

1. The receiving bank may charge a fee.

2. Free international transfers available from Citibank Australia to select Citibank accounts in over 25 countries worldwide using Citibank Global Transfers. Daily transfer limit applies. Funds are converted to the destination account currency at the exchange rate specified to you on Citibank Online before you confirm your transaction. This exchange rate includes a commission for the conversion service. Subject to local regulations, transfers will reach the destination account almost immediately after being effected but in some cases may take up to 24 hours.

3. Non-Citibank and non-Partner* ATM owners may charge you a fee for use of their ATMs. *Partner ATMs include Westpac branded, St.George, Bank of Melbourne and BankSA ATMs within Australia.

4. Citibank's Dining Program is operated by Pinpoint Pty Ltd ABN 49 693 656 and Zenith Wine Agencies Pty Ltd ABN 66 128 399 717. Please visit citibank.com.au/dine for important information about how to use the program to receive a free bottle of wine.

5. Only existing Citibank customers in receipt of this communication are eligible to apply. To be eligible for the 10,000 Rewards points you must apply for a new Citibank Plus account before 31 July 2012 and deposited $3,000 or more in both August and September 2012. For all eligible customers, we will credit 10,000 Rewards points into your highest tiered Citibank Credit Card at the end of the following month after the minimum deposit requirements have been satisfied. One offer per customer.

Clearly you need to have a Citibank credit card to be eligible. The link to apply is not targeted, but it does say "Only existing Citibank customers in receipt of this communication are eligible to apply" in T&C point #5 - still, I suspect it may work for anyone with a Citibank credit card.

Woops, looks like it really is targeted - you need to enter an "offer code" and "customer reference number" when applying, both of which are in the original e-mail.

Mods, please delete this thread if you feel that's appropriate - but I guess it might still serve as a reminder for others with Citibank credit cards to keep an eye out for a similar offer, and/or contact Citibank about it if they are interested. In case it helps anyone, the "offer code" (non-personalised) is CPA695.
