Sources familiar with the matter confirm that the new $1,000 Citi Price Rewind annual limit will only go into effect beginning January 1, 2019. Throughout 2018, the $2,500 limit will remain.
The new July 29th Citi rule limits us to $200 per claim (instead of $500) and $1,000 annually (instead of $2,500). Readers have been told conflicting things about whether the $1,000 is already in effect being that the benefit is based on the year and we are now holding in mid-year. We’ve been able to confirm that the $2,500 limit will remain throughout 2018; on January 1, 2019, the new $1,000 limit will go into effect.
The other change which lowered the maximum from $500 to $200 went into effect yesterday, July 29th.
