I had an offer for 4 extra points for my Citi Custom Cash on bill payments in
– Cell & Landline Providers
– Internet Providers
– Cable & Satellite Providers
– Insurance Providers
– Entertainment Subscriptions

through 1/31. Oddly, my electric utility bill payment qualified for the extra 4 points. LOL… I have no idea why that would have counted since it coded as “Services – Utilities – Electric, Gas, Sanitary, Water”. They must have counted any utility bill payment, not just the stated categories.

Just received a similar offer. Did you ever determine if the offer stacked? Did you get 9% back on your top category during the promo period?
