Citi used to offer a credit card called the Citi Forward card, it hasn’t been available for new sign ups for several years now but existing cardholders were grandfathered and received the following benefits:

  • No annual fee
  • 5x Citi ThankYou points on restaurants, movies, music and books purchases

Via Frequent Miler Citi have sent mail outs to existing cardholders letting them know that on June 4th, 2016 this card will no longer earn 5x points on those categories and will instead earn 2x points. In addition to that points will no longer expire (previously they expired after five years).

This is a pretty big hit for people with the card, the next best cards only earn 3% cash back on restaurant purchases and Amazon also codes as a bookstore so it was an easy 5x there as well.
