The customer service for this card is absolutely horrible. Needed to speak with 3 reps to resolve a simple  $20 dispute. Each rep gave completely contradictory information about dates,  resolution of the dispute, etc. Asked for a bonus credit for good will for the trouble and they refused. Frustrating.
Not the experience I have had for this card

Should have gotten it right away after the statement which put you over 30k closed.

Please forgive my newbie question and I know I can search here somewhere and find it but I just got the spg card, where can I see the points to category ratio? Meaning a cat 5 hotel = how many points?

Thanks
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Also, is there anything that lists the reasons behind the categories?

Had a personal card in Sep 2012 and downgraded it in Sep 2013. Any chance they'll give me another sign-up bonus?

can you refer from a personal card to someone else for a business card?

Any thoughts on whether they might pull this promo early? Don't want to sign up now, but still want to get in on it soon.
