AMEX is awful with peer-to-peer referrals with giving bonuses and for people signing up for the cards.

B"H that they're better with the DD links :)
Thanx for that piece of info. I was under the impression like yaakov s that referral links are as guaranteed as any others is. They sure make it sound like it is! About DD links, I actually signed up for the PR Business Card using the DD link and their saying now that they dont see that my account is eligible for the 10k 50k promotion .....

IIRC there was a messup with the *wood card recently. Was that them?
There was, but Courtney agreed to let anyone that applied via DD links to get the 30K.

Send an SM to Courtney at the social media/twitter dept.
Did you spend the 10K yet?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Nope but I'm getting there. Should I wait till I finish? Also how do you send an sm to a specific person via sm/social media?

To come on DDF and ask for advise about is debatable.
But a link sent via referral is 100% as legitimate as any other official Amex link. So IMHO your line was out of line.
if you would think ... what i said was dont be selfish and try to get yourself a couple of points while you mess that guy over if it was for yourself you would use a real link with offer (dans) and then try to request add points and not take a chance with a offer of 0 points,  ppl with humble opinion are usually not so quick to reprimand others

While we are off-topic, I signed up on DD for the 30K offer and met the spending already but only got 10k. I have been sending SM's to Courtney for the past week but apparently she is on vacation. I got someone else who said she confirmed i am to receive the addt'l 20k but wont post them until the beginning of 01/12. I practically begged her to post them now as i wanted to feed them to my AA account going for LT plat. No dice. Anyone have any thoughts on how i can get them to post the 20k now? We all know they aint gonna post on their own and i would love to have them in my SPG account before 11/30

One of the most annoying things about amex is when they give you the whole garbacge about waiting the 6-8 weeks per the T&C. If only the reps would actually get the cards too and see that the points never post, they would stop thinking they know more than we do about bonus points posting.

When does Courtney return from vacation?
You can also call CS and ask for a Starpoint advance.

Shlit"a could technically work due to the fact that it's an abbreviation for sheyicye lyomim tovim..  So in the feminine form it would be shetichye Lyomim tovim, even though the word shlit"a is never used when referring to a women.
