Sean,
In the fineprint it states you cannot sign up if already a member of Citibank. This offer is for new money only.

It looks like you’re only ineligible if you already have a Citibank CHECKING account. Presumably you can take advantage of the offer if you have other Citibank accounts. Just not a checking account.

BE AWARE…to avoid a monthly fee of $12.50 a combined balance of $6,000 is required. They waive this fee for the first month.
