All Citibank Gold Visa holders

I had a call from Citibank yesterday wanting to do a survey about my visa card. They asked lots of questions concerning the QFF program and if I would still want the card if the points went towards other rewards instead. I told them the only reason I had the card was for the 1 for 1 FF points - and the "no annual fee ever" of course. Its got me worried though that they are thinking of changing the reward system. I advise you to take the time to do the survey if they ring you and let them know that WE WANT THE QANTAS FREQUENT FLIER POINTS!!!!!!!

They are changing the redemption rate for silver cardholders. From 11 June, the rate for silver cardholders will become 2 Citibank points = 1 QFF point.

Was on a statement from Citibank (not sure why I got that message I don't have a silver card!)

Re: All Citibank Gold Visa holders

Hmm...think I'll be transferring the points out of my Gold card pretty soon.

(Haven't got the T&C in front of me right now, but they'd have to give warning of this sort of thing before implementing it right?)

Cheers,

Yes, I suspect that one of the reasons for the announcement to silvers was to encourage people to upgrade (I've been through the Citibank mill before!). An added benefit of gold will be a better redemption rate...

Re: All Citibank Gold Visa holders

Another thing changing on June 11, is that operator assisted redemptions will require an additional 2000 points.

Yes, 30 days, although at this point there are no changes for gold or platinum redemptions.
