Thanks for Nothing, Citi

I have a Mastercard with Citi Cards and they recently sent me an e-mail about my credit line which I’ve pasted below. (I’ve not changed anything below, other than cropping the federally-required disclaimers which were in the original.)

Dear ALEX BISCHOFF:

We are pleased to inform you that we have raised the credit
line of your Citi(R) Diamond Preferred(R) Rewards account
to $0.

This increase was a result of our ongoing credit review
program. We wanted to acknowledge the responsible way you
have maintained your account.

Thank you for being a Citi Diamond Preferred Rewards customer.

Sincerely,
S. Larson

Customer Service

So… I wasn’t quite sure how to take that ;). Naturally, I logged in to their online site and confirmed that my credit line had been increased in real terms. Yeesh.
