Citi AT&T Unavailable for Signups, Time to Product Change?

The AT&T Access More credit card from Citi is currently unavailable for signup online or over the phone.

Beginning a couple of months ago, the card stopped showing on the Citi site, but it was still accessible via the AT&T site. At the bottom right-hand corner of the homepage at att.com, there’s a link for the Access More credit card and that link was working. Until yesterday. Now, that link eventually results in an error message.

Most seem to think that the card will be discontinued. I’m a bit skeptical if that’s true; it seems odd that they’d neuter a new partnership completely instead of just tweaking things that they felt needed to be changed.

In any case, if you are interested in the card for its ongoing reward structure, it could make sense to product change a different Citi card into an AT&T card in case it does get discontinued. You’ll lose out on the signup bonus, but you’ll get the card.

There have been recent reports of the Double Cash being able to convert into an AT&T card and the Diamond Preferred as well. Other cards should work as well, and certainly another ThankYou card.

Here are a few rules about Citi conversions taken from our post Best Downgrade Options & Rules For Each Card Issuer.

  • Card must be at least twelve months old before downgrading.
  • Conversions can take up to 51 days (this is usually done much sooner).
  • Some representatives will say that product changes must be done within the same product family (e.g. an American Airline card must be downgraded to another AA card). This is not the case, rather than arguing hang up and call again.
