Wanted to know if any knows about the vouchers that come 6-8 weeks later. Do we know if it must go into account with same name or is any amex account eligible?

Additionally, would it be a problem if the amex account that made the transfer is shut down a few days after the transfer?

(basically, I wanna transfer from Mr. Bob's amex 100k to Mr. Joe's Delta and then insert vouchers into Mr. Tom's amex - Mr. Bob is shutting his account in early January - do we foresee problems?)

You can transfer to anybody's account.
If the account from where it was transfered has not done a points advance, what is your problem. This promo is from Delta's side, not Amex.

That's what I thought but wasn't trusting my own brain...

A mess up would cost me well over $1k.  :o

Unless I'm missing something, you're overlooking the possibility that the AMEX voucher/rebate cannot be redeemed on any account other than the one from which the miles were transferred.

I think that is what he means.

I also heard (unconfirmed) that it can be inserted into any amex account.

I can confirm this from a few transactions, into different first and last names.

Last promotion they issued most of the vouchers right after the promo expired. Seems that same will happen this time.
Sounds like they don't want people to get more MR and take advantage twice of the same promo.

Anyone after 8 weeks already. mine is reaching 8 weeks this Friday, then I'll be able to kick in a tantrum.

   When the bonus does come through will it be automaticly sent to email on file or will an agent go into each account look at the history and send the amount earned. I have many tickets booked for other people with my points for business class seats that I would not want an agent seeing.  Does anyone think I should have a problom.   Thanks

Is this the 30 % Amex MR Rebates u r talking about. If so you will get emails with a certificate for
20K  with codes that u have to enter into the account of your choosing .

I got 5 x 20 with the 40% bonus at summer and they came in individual emailed certificates .

If this is not what you are talking about Disregard my comment   ;D
