Thanks oz_mark, guess I got to wait.

Citibank Australia - Special Introductory Offer Application

looks like citibank hasn't completely removed it, see if someone can work it out.

[liparj]

Just rang their (Phillipines?) call centre and they confirmed this offer is current...

They were extremely helpful unlike CBA, who I rang to see if they could offer me a better deal than to charge me $200 per year for my platinum MC. They wouldn't budge at all..

Can't see where CBA Platinum is any better than Citibank Gold so guess who's going elsewhere?!

I can't find the catch anywhere in Citibank's T&Cs..apart from a 60K point cap and 10K point minimum transfer.... which I can live with..

Has anyone experienced anything different after signing up for Citibank's no fee ever deal?

Nope. Been using this more than 2 years and never have problems .... No annual fee charged at all. But I suggest you apply ONLY the Gold card as the silver card have different redemption rates for Qantas and no Singapore Airline redemption (I think?!).

But do watch out their foreign currency exchange fees, like 3.3% ..... Higher than most other cards. So as long as you aware of this you should have no problems.

I remember someone ever said that he tried several times and finally went through, you may try again later. Good luck.
