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.
For the record, I got a retail offer and a grocery offer, and both posted automatically.
DP: Got an email for my Simplicity card at 5X (it doesn't earn 1X on normal purchases so the total is the same). Categories are: Restaurants, Movie Theaters, Show Theaters.
Seems like I did not get it this time.
I fuckin didn't get shit like usual fuck this!

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?
