Seems Citibank never wanted me to earn these 1000 PremierMiles so I never got this email. Anyhow, I requested a reader to forward me an email that Citibank has sent out to select group of their PremierMiles customers, who have recently been issued the new chip & pin credit cards.
To avail this offer, you first need to look up your mailbox to see if you have received an email from india.marketing@citi.com regarding this promotion. Only if you heard from Citi would you be eligible for the promotion.
You need to use your new Chip+Pin Citibank Premiermiles CC with a physical swipe machine (i.e., not over the internet or a phone system) before August 31, 2013 and authenticate using a PIN code to be able to receive these 1000 PremierMiles. The miles will be credited within a month of the promotion closing.
You can check out the details terms & conditions here [PDF].
Also remember to register for the Accelerated miles promotion while you are up to it.

Gaurav, I received the email soon after I got a new chip card, but I had already used it on a swipe machine before I got the email.
Vcat, I got the email saying “we miss you at Citibank” a second time, and that too after several such transactions. So it was neither a dormant nor and old account.
The logic is not very clear.
It says ‘ we miss you at Citibank’, so this could be for former or dormant users.
Even I have not recd this email, may be because I have been already using the chip+pin on EMV swipe machines. This seems targeted to non-users only.
