Kavi and Shilpi, I am sending to each of you $100 Barnes and Nobles gift card, they will mail it directly to your addresses, from Citibank Thank you points, if I do it on the American Express points, they will send to my address only and then I mail it to you .. (if you prefer I can send eGift card that will be available within 3 hours it says, but sent to my email address and not sure if it will work okay if I just forward it).
Me:
Kavi, And I just saw on online that Citibank has reimbursed me yesterday, on August 5, for those fraudulent ATM transactions in India.. but they still seem to be missing one, (?), out of 20 and associated foreign transaction fee, although I clearly pointed it out in my appeal .. anyway most of the stolen money is back in the account.,
Me:
Shilpi, I have ordered the $100 Home Depot? $50 Barnes & Noble, $25 Bath and Body Works physical gift cards for you from the Amex points, and they will be mailed to our 6715 N Commercial Ave Portland OR 97217 address directly since I changed my mailing address on the Amex cards for now to there, you can expect it to come in 7-19 days it says. Also, I sent Kavi $100 Barnes & Noble physical gift card to his Brooklyn address using the Citibank Thank You points .. so I got good value, 1000 points = $10 for all the cards... Enjoy.. 😁👍😁
