Call American Express and give them the promo code/ or application code or whatever it's called on the online application, they should be able to change it to 75K for 10k spend.  I did it.

Any working 50K links out there? Tried incognito, refresh, multiple times and nothing.

Seems like Amex forgot to discontinue the 15k MR bonus for $30k in spend on PRG. Just got the bonus for 2015. Anyone else get this bonus?

Whats the PRG card downgradeable to? Is the green card the only option? Any way to convert PRG to a credit card or anything with free add'l cards?

thx

Amex PRG to add $100 airline credit and no foreign transaction fees and some other benefits as of 6/1/15.

That's some good news from Amex for a change.

Wow. I have to say AmEx leveled the playing field.

At $195/yr with a $100 airline reimbursement (effectively $95/yr like the Chase SP) + no forex, 2x at restaurants and the same 3x from airlines, this card becomes quite the competitor.

Finally, Amex has realized that no forex fees is not a benefit anymore. Its something that you most offer in order to be up to date... Almost every Chase card has no forex fees. IMO the only reason Amex was so obnoxious with that was because back in the days when every CC charged forex fees they were the only one offering a special card, called the Platinum card which had no forex fees. It was the most prestige full AMEX card for that reason. They were saying every where that its the only card for the traveler etc, not realizing that they are really old fashioned and outdated. That the UMPE card has no forex fees. But they didn't wanna face the fact and waive forex fees for the PRG because it would automatically bring down the prestige from the Platinum card. But finally they realized that it was not the right business decision.
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

I'm assuming that even given the changes you still can't get the bonus if you've had the older version. Anybody think differently?

Are these changes on old cards also, or just for new accounts?
