Got a preapproved email offer to upgrade green biz to platinum for 50k. Will I get bonus if originally I signed up as platinum and downgraded to green?

When does the offer expire?

Mid 2018(!). Does that make a difference?

I applied for the Amex  offer online that Dan posted  it was the 100 MR points for 15k spend 5 + 10 and  I spent 5k in the first month but never got the first 50,000 miles credited. When I called Amex the supervisor told me its in all the terms and conditions that if you were a former card holder you don't get the welcome bonus again. I told her it wasn't listed on the application that I filled out and she claims it always on the terms and conditions and they will not give me the 50k MR points. Anyone have any experience how to argue my case?

Can you prove that? And even if you can still may not work.

You can still use it if it didn't expire yet.
