Citigroup and how you fight back

I'm going to ruin this for myself, but c'est la vie. Many of you probably have a Costco card or other Citi-branded credit card. Many of those cards have a benefit known as Price Rewind. It's essentially a price-match program. In other words, you buy something at a store (B&M or online) and then find a cheaper price (B&M ad or online) and you submit a "price rewind" request. They credit you the difference (in the purchase price only, taxes and DROS not included).

The terms and conditions do not exclude firearms or ammunition for now, and in fact, it is confirmed that they will process price rewinds on this. Up to $500 an item, and $2,500 a year per Citi card account.

Very easy process. As a tip, do bulk cases of ammo, because each item has to be entered separately. You don't want to waste an hour entering 100 boxes of ammo individually.

So forget, at least for now, getting a COE/FFL03 to get ammo shipments. Support your favorite LGS, buy a bulk case of ammo (or five) at the LGS' ridiculous marked up rate, and take a few bucks out of the gun-grabbing globalists' pockets.

Hmmm...Bud’s prices at the LGS? It could be a “thing” !

I've been doing that for a while for ammo.

Big Bank goes "Hogg"wild with gun ban

While I was aware of this totalitarian loving anti self defense,police state bank being anti freedom for a decade or so. They now are officialy ANTI RIGHTS!

https://downtrend.com/71superb/citi-bank-goes-****i-bank-with-new-anti-gun-policy/

From citi bank
Under this new policy, we will require new retail sector clients or partners to adhere to these best practices: (1) they don’t sell firearms to someone who hasn’t passed a background check, (2) they restrict the sale of firearms for individuals under 21 years of age, and (3) they don’t sell bump stocks or high-capacity magazines. This policy will apply across the firm, including to small business, commercial and institutional clients, as well as credit card partners, whether co-brand or private label.

Although it's a good idea to use price rewind as per OPs suggestion and I urge cal gunners to use it. My personal choice is to not use any service connected with this bank including COSTCO!

Price rewind will cost Citi far more than they ever earn back on processing the transaction. Also, you can use any VISA card at Costco, not just those issued by Citi.

True but COSTCO always smelled anti gun to me. Their political contributions go 90 % toward democrats. They have zero gun mags in the rack that includes lots of vile stuff .

COSTCO furthered and contributed to the police killing of West Point grad Eric Scott who had CCW .
Apparently when he bent over gun was exposed and COSTCO employee called police who shot Eric dead!

Oh wait the 911 call was not available and none oh COSTCOs security cams were working when Eric Scott exited store and was shot to death !

I'm not saying cal gunners should boycott COSTCO- just saying I personally prefer to NOT shop there. A feeling not shared by the JA 308 household!

Still, they don't shy away from selling ammo cans and gun safes.

Based on the way COSTCO employees report CCW holders ! I would suggest they add bulletproof vests to their ammo cans and safes .
"To hear the side of the story presented by Scott's family, friends, and some eyewitnesses, Erik Scott's death was the result of ignorance and embellishment on the part of the Costco staff, and a combative, deterministic mindset from responding officers.

Just saying COSTCO is NOT a gun owners friend .

I do hope all Citibank customers cancell credit card and accounts .

Never knew about this feature. Bought a lawnmower at the local power equipment shop a couple weeks ago, then saw it $20 cheaper at Home Depot. I used my Costco Citi card so I just started the price rewind tracker. I'm interested in seeing how it works out.

"Antediluvian"- I learned a new word today- thanks!

does that price rewind cost citi money or the retailer that you bought the item from?

cause i am doubting that the credit card company would take on such a money losing process.

It costs Citi, which is exactly why you should take advantage of it. They get away with it because so few people know about it and use it.
