How long for Citibank to offer complementary upgrade from platinum to signature?

[Philosiphier]

Hi all,

I just had my Citibank platinum limit increased to $15,000 (min limit for sig card), I had some of my redicredit limit transferred to my existing platinum rewards card, just enough to get to the 15K. The girl I spoke to understood the limit I was after was only to get the sig card.
I asked her if my no annual fee feature would be transferred over if/when the signature was approved and she said she was unsure but would put it through with a strict request to have it continued.

I was wondering who (if anyone) has obtained a signature card this way and how long it took to be approved?

And, are there any REAL perks to this card over the platinum? I can't seem to find the option to link in to QFF anywhere, though I'm certain this was a feature several years ago.

Thanks!

Zoe.

yes they did this for me and transferred over the points
the big difference is that its 2 citi to one sing air with plat and 1.5 city to 1 signature
plus extra points on all purchases.
if they don't waive the charges just call them and if u have spent enough they should refund the charges. or call them and refer to the current deal .
