My Citi Premier account converted to the Strata Premier this morning, I already have my replacement card on order! ✊
I saw that. I think with the leak Citi said forget it, just send it all at the start of the week
strata having travel protection is awesome!
FYI: The Strata can be upgraded to the PRESTIGE by calling the number on the back of Strata to determine eligibility. (according to Citi's website)
Interesting. That could be the move for old Premier cards being converted over
I can see the Citi Strata on the Citibank website right now. I wish Citi would bring back American Airlines as a transfer partner and the travel protections.
Yep... the joys of taping a day or two before. I've already been denied...
Sorry about that RJ! ☹️
@@RJFinancialCiti is strict reason I just product changed my Double Cash to the Premier in 2023. Of course if you want the bonus you will want to apply for a new account!
I think the new card has travel protection
It'll be interesting to see how CITI builds out this Strata setup. Thanks for the info + video!
They either have more to show or this was a monumental waste of effort. No regular customer is gonna care
Ben Hedges mentioned that one difference with the Strata Premier is that the 10% back on booking hotels through the travel portal will be made permanent. That seems to be the only real difference, but it is a welcome addition.
Unfortunately the Citi Travel portal is so overpriced compared to booking directly, that it negates both the $100 hotel credit AND the 10 points per dollar.
The cards is out now of course... and I saw that is a permanent feature. Before it was a part of the intro offer I think for the old Premier.
Great info RJ👍🏾
Great video
1:1 Hilton Honors is a joke, but I bet it's intentionally subdued so that they can rain Hilton points once or twice a year on rent day.
Fair. I liked how they added Alaska better. Hilton is the name everyone wants so the average person will be thrilled is my guess
I’ve been holding onto the Citi Prestige so I’m really interested to see what they do with Elite. I eat out a ton and use Priority Pass restaurants a lot so it made sense to keep Prestige. I’m encouraged by travel protections returning on the Strata Premier, which has been sorely missed on Prestige. For Elite, I would love to see the same benefits plus some AAdvantage benefit (transfer partner, loyalty point earnings, elite status, etc.).
Weirdly enough Citi is the last man standing with PP Restaurant perk.
When I found out about Citi releasing the Strata Premier, I was glad that almost everything was staying the same. Although, I was hoping they would have reduced the spend requirement to get the $100 annual hotel credit. With it being a "new" card with an elevated welcome offer, I think Citi may be lenient with their approval rules. Therefore, I think you may have a good chance at getting approved for it. I'll definitely be looking forward to your video on whether or not you will be approved for it!
Welp... they may be more open but not to someone with my level of inquires. I got denied so you'll have to avenge me
I left Citi when they dropped the travel protection. Now that protections are returning I might have a second look.
$750 is worth a second look
Yes Sir! 👍
I product changed my Strata Premier to a Custom Cash this evening. I still can’t get over the cheap ass low grade plastic design of the Strata Premier. The Citi Premier had a more premium look and feel, I have other travel cards with similar or better rewards so no loss.
Love me a custom cash. Design isn't great. It probably shoulda at least been flimsy metal like the CSP and Autograph cards. As they are competitors
I was denied for this card, lol. Letter I got:
- Your credit report shows a high amount of unused credit compared to your available credit lines.
- Your credit report shows too many bank or national revolving accounts.
I was too. On to the next one as they say
Will premire members automatically get the strata
Yes. They’re converting cards today
WF definitely is on thr cusp of being extremely valuable. They do have the basics covered, but it's not enough to want to me to switch. Maybe just to complement ($0 autograph)? But, if they have Bilt partners, then that would be wonderful and absolutely a reason to change.
Fair. I don't think they care about any of us switching. This is for the regular people. Simple, easy to use, and low price cards win the masses.
Meh. WF is not trying to (aggressively) compete or be leader in card space. They just want to make sure they can keep customers and attract a few more (at low cost)..similarly to Citi.
Got approved with 6/24(1/12) new accounts and 5/24 HPs (0/12). Yay.
Glad you could avenge me
I am pretty sure the Strata not only adds protections it didn't have before (made no sense), but also made the 10x multipliers on hotels and rental cars permanent. Right?
Yes. They ended up launching today... of course
@@RJFinancial Oh, ok. Rumors said they would launch on the 16th. Thanks.
Strata Premier is already here, and it seems like you can already apply for it.
You can even be denied for it… ask me how I know
@@RJFinancial ah, I see. I can't apply for it b/c I was approved for the Premier back in August 2023. I'd definitely get denied.
@@RJFinancialGet your credit up. 😂
Strata Elite with 5x on dining, groceries, gas/EV and flights with a $450 to $500 af plus $300 to $400 in credits. Is it coming out the end of this year? 6 monts after the Strata?
I guess next year. Maybe in time for holiday spend and travel. Depends on if you can have both cards or they make it like the sapphire where you can only have one.
I applied for the Citi Strata Premier card. I'm already disappointed in the card even though I haven't received it yet. Yes, it has travel benefits, but I called the bank and asked if it had "Worldwide Travel Accident Insurance". They told me that it does not have this benefit. What kind of travel card doesn't come with travel accident insurance? I will book a hotel to get the $100 back on the annual fee, and I'll do the minimum spend in order to get the bonus points. But I don't expect to keep the card beyond the first year.
All most of these cards are good for is the easy money. Downgrade to a second custom cash in year two
Do Citi have a pre- Approval before being hit wit Inquiry
Second question Citi Strata or Citi Double, custom set what do you think ?
I didn’t see one of when I applied.
If you want the Citi life and travel then it’s all three cards. If you don’t travel then I wouldn’t pay for Strata in year two. You can find higher multipliers in each category for free elsewhere. That Mainly works if you do cash back.
Question is Bilt Owen by well-Fargo ?
I got approve for Bilt $3K .
@@Anthonyjones-pq4ff WF is issuer and the lender for the BILT card
@@RJFinancial thxz RJ, How’s it’s going .
I got approve for the Bilt card .
Low ball under $10K but all in time . Thxz again I”ll be watching You .
Based RJ
Q points are probably status level points.
Probably so. The meh attitude is more a joke as nobody’s going to apply for this thing. Aside from the Avios
It would take some travel insurance &/or primary auto CDW to lure me to the strata from the CSP
I’ve read they added some. I have to do a deeper look. Tho, I did apply and get denied of course
It's there.
Yea I had the old Citi Prestige but I’m done with Citi ecosystem. They quit on their cards too quickly.
Eh, take the bonuses and then cut em loose
I hope you get approved for the card, but im iffy for ya. Plus I like how you just say fuck it and apply for cards. Many people are scared to get inquires and worry too much about 5/24 status. Im tired of it. Get chase cards and move on. Garden later. Just my 2 cents.
I was denied... Shooters gonna shoot as they say. 9 cards this year, 4 denials and a 1 push (pop up jail)
@RJFinancial you got balls man. I'm only at 3 and p2 is at 2. Total 5. Yet again you have real estate that needs repairs. We can only do natural spend and rent. We aren't heavy hitters like you.
I'll earn the 75,000 points and downgrade it to my third custom cash card after a year.
That was my plan as well, good call
Some constructive criticism. If this is going to be your job, which I believe it is, you can’t just “mail it in”. No research…no enthusiasm Your I don’t give a damn attitude come through loud and clear. I think you are, or at least can be, better than this. Rewatch this and ask yourself if this is the best you can do and represents excellence of execution. When you rewatch ask yourself if this “expert” seems knowledgeable and enthusiastic about this subject. Again, constructive criticism.
I probably won't do any of that but thanks for suffering through it
