According to some other sources (FT eg) Citi AA cards now deny sign up bonus for 48 months from previous bonus. I do see that in application terms, is that the current situation? thanks
Can you apply both personal and business aa and get miles?
Yes, absolutely.
Thx. What if you had these cards before? How long between when u had and closed to get miles? I
Applied for personal and biz on Saturday. Approved for personal on Sunday after calling reconsideration line. Approved biz Monday after calling reconsideration line. Last time I had been approved for citi aa personal select card 1/2013 and biz 1/2015. Both cards cancelled over 24 months ago.
Good to hear. Congrats.

DW got a Citi Business AAdvantage card and now it is showing on her Equifax report on CreditKarma (but not on Transunion).
Why? I thought maybe it would go away but it is still there 2 months later.
She will be under 5/24 otherwise, so what will happen? Any Ideas?
Just to be sure: you mean that it shows as a new account not as an inquiry, right?
Assuming that’s so, I don’t know! Maybe CitiBusiness reports to Equifax but not to the other bureaus. If that’s true, then your 5/24 count may be dependent upon which bureaus Chase pulls for your applications. Have you tracked that?
Not sure what you mean by track it. But it still shows up on CreditKarma as an open account now on the Equifax side, which is where all the Chase cards show. .
How do I “track” it?
I meant: have you watched to see which bureaus Chase issues hard inquires to when you apply for a Chase card?
No.
Is there a way to get this removed from the personal account?
I doubt it, but I don’t know for sure
Thanks.

Small adjustment: looks like the annual fee on this has gone up from $95 to $99.
The CitiBusiness AAdvantage Platinum application is not working!!!!!
You can find it as follows: click the link on this page which takes you to another website. From there:
1. Click the menu: Card Issuer… Citi
2. Scroll down, click “show more cards”. You should then be able to find what you want.
Sorry about this. We can’t do anything about where the cards show up in the list and this one is particularly well hidden!
[…] cards coming with 50K miles after first purchase and the Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select and Citibusiness AAdvantage cards offering 60K after $3K spend in 3 months, it’s pretty easy to accumulate the miles […]
Doesn’t work. Link on Best Offers page comes here, this page links to itself.
That’s correct – then you’d have to click through from this page and then you can sort by issuer and you should find what you’re looking for.
Is this offer dead now?
Anyone know if this offer is available if you have the personal version of the Platinum Select AAdvantage card?
The application states the following, but I can’t tell for sure if it only means other business cards, or personal as well:
“This card is not available if the business already has a CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® Platinum Select® World Mastercard® card. Bonus miles are not available if you have had any CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® card opened or closed in the past 24 months.”
Yes, that’s fine. Business and personal cards are handled separately.
Thanks guys.
Just went there, the link there does say 60k, but when you hit apply now it sends you to an error page saying they can’t process your application right now try again later….
Ugh. Sorry about that — saw the landing page worked and made the assumption that the application page did, too. I have updated the Best Offers page with a new 60K link.
And I fixed the link on this page so this one works too.
Hey nick. The link brings you directly to the personal card with the $450 AF. Searching around you can find the business version but it’s still only showing 30k. Not sure if it’s the link or the offer is gone. Thanks.
Huh – you’re right. I’ll fix this. In the meantime, go to our Best Offers page and try the link there — it should be direct to the 60K offer.

I will get this page fixed as well, but I believe when you click the link there it should take you directly to the 60K offer (it’s working from there on my end).
I fixed this. The link is for 60K. Thanks!
Is there a live link for the 60k offer? Link isn’t working and Citi site only has 30k…
experiencing the same – maybe an update is needed?
