Our Verdict
Nice to see a broad category offer like Airlines or Hotels during the summer travel season.
Hat tip to reader patient of credit and to SD
Did anyone receive the credit yet??
Got this offer on my Citi Double Cash today.
I received an email for this offer today if I spend $350 on hotels get $30 back (Citi Custom Cash).
I got the Hotels offer for my Citi Custom Cash upon logging in to website. Good until May 25. Of course, it was 30 minutes after I booked $1200 worth of hotel stay thru Expedia on the card. I activated it and hope it might apply. Now that I’ve activated it, I cannot find mention of it anywhere on the website. Will try installing the app.
Expedia will disqualify it. Here is verbiage “This offer excludes purchases made at warehouses and travel agencies.”
Does this stack with the 10% we get back from the Citi portal? I’m assuming not since it uses booking.com
Terms explicitly say no travel agencies, and historically Citi includes their own portal as an OTA.
Is there any hotel that allows prepay but is fully refundable? I checked a few, e.g., IHG, Hilton, but the prepay options are all nonrefundable
Does this stack with the JetBlue offer that was posted a few days ago?
Terms say stacking counts, so assuming you got the airline version it’d make sense.
I received an invitation for 30 off 350 on hotels. However the T&C says purchases via travel agencies are not eligible.
I wonder if it would work on prepaid rates at Marriot. I suppose it should? The deal ends on 4/24 but I do not have any traval planned until summer.
This offer popped up on my app again yesterday, exp 4/23/23
Edit to add: for my AAdvantage MileUp card. Had it last summer on my Citi Premier. I had booked a hotel through a third party website and it did not code as a hotel though (probably “other travel” like a different commenter) so I didn’t get the credit.
Got the offer again. Yet forgot to make a screenshot. did it require one transaction of 350 – or can be many just summing up to 350 or more?
Also in doubt. And I can’t find anything noting which offers I’ve already signed up for. Odd.
I did take a screenshot because Citi has been notorious for not giving me my cashback when taking advantage of any of their merchant offers. In any case, it can be multiple purchases that total $350+ in spending. I completed this on January 30 and waiting for my $30 back. Customer service says it could take 8-10 weeks which is ridiculous.
It doesn’t matter. I had screenshots of enrollment and purchase for another offer and citi still never gave me what’s owed.
Update: I received my $30 back on February 14. It labels as a “category spend bonus”. Need to keep nagging Citi customer service to get it.
