Citi thank you premier ?

^this has a first year fee of 500+ right?

But you get airline and Uber credit OP

550 up front. 200 back for uber and 200 back for airline reimbursement. Yes there is a fee, benefits are worth it.

I might be wrong but Membership rewards do not seem to be quite useful. Plus the incidentals are for one airline only (you got to pick one - says heir website) That means getting tied to it - may not be worth it for me because I don’t have a lot of domestic leisure travel to maintain loyalty to one airline. Thank you for your advice though:)

Is it advisable to proceed? They're not asking any money from me they are sponsoring for visa. Is it safe
