To whom it may concern ; On - -, 2016 I applied online for a Citigold Checking Account with a promotional code that offered a promotion of - bonus - miles after setting up a bill payment for at least 2 consecutive months and after making at least $1000.00 in debit card purchases. To ensure that the promotion was applied to my application I called on - -, 2016 and received verbal confirmation from a Citi representative that the promotion was in fact applied to my application. After fulfilling all of the required criteria to receive the bonus I waited a few months for the bonus to be applied to my account, it was never applied. I called Citi the end of - and a representative told me I had fulfilled my end of the contract and that if I had not received the promotional airmiles by the end of - to please call back and it would be taken care of. When I called back they said I had to open an investigation and claim ( not specific ) and they would be in touch with me in 72 hrs. So I subsequently opened a claim regarding the issue.
to do business with me until I called and asked about the bonus and at that time they told me it would not be issued. This is bad business practice and is unacceptable. I was never told about the " targeted '' restriction and they accepted the application under the promotion. I am not sure why this is happening but it is definitely not building good customer care. Since then my coorespondance has been anything but positive.. they keep reminding me that I was not " targeted '' when others that I have talked to were not targeted either and they received the promotion but not until confronting them several times. I had high hopes to have them manage our inheritance but I wanted to see how they did by living up to their commitment with this promotion. Can you please help me rectify this misrepresentation? If you need any other information, please let me know. Sincerely, - - - - - -, NY -
