Mainly for the people who don't have the guts to post in the "Report new Amex offers" thread, that one really gets the adrenaline pumping.

IMO this thread should just be deleted, basically no good comes from it and most people posting here haven't the slightest clue what they're talking about.

Nobody. At the end of the day, they'll call a few brokers and take the best offer they're given, regardless of what they were or weren't told here.
Well said.

But like @mmgfarb said, anyone concerned about that goes to multiple brokers, and takes his best quote.
