open a citi checking account, complete qualifying activities such as pay 2 electronic bills per month for 2 months, to get 20k thank you points, and deposit another $25k into a savings account and do 2 bill payments for one extra month and get another 20k points

accounts must be opened and funded by 10/31, a rep told me you can withdraw the $25k sometimes after and still earn the 20k additional points, although i would keep $6k to meet the minimum balance of the checking account [or having $6k balance in linked accounts] to not be charged account fee which will go up to $20 in NOVEMBER

we have done this before, last time it was no hassle, got 80k points [me and hubby] right after 3 months up, however lately i have been having trouble getting points on another promotion and had to call in

go to offer.citibank.com
