Probably nothing. In general the bank transmits either the field ID
or REF inside the transaction object. These are taken by KMM to
identify the transaction (ID having the higher precedence). I suspect
that you get the same data from both banks (which is weird by itself)
but with different IDs. So KMM does not have a chance to match them
as duplicates.

I don't know if this type of thing is done outside the US, but both of
these cards were issued (by different card companies) in partnership
with Costco, which is one of several "big box" or "warehouse" stores in
the US, where you have to be a member to shop there. (BJs and Sam's
club are two others). When Costco didn't renew their agreement with
American Express, they switched to Citibank VISA - but because the new
cards were replacements for the old ones (which were all canceled at
the time of the switch) they made arrangements for the transfer of the
historical data.
I only thought about the transaction IDs, and that they would likely
change in the new account, after Thomas mentioned it.
