I have 2 personal and one biz.  One of the personal i signed up for recently (thanks to Dan informing that the SPG Amex may be churnable) and i got the 25K bonus after 15K in spend.  Not only that but for some reason they gave me an extra 30K! No idea why and I'm not asking.
 My wife signed up and did not get that 30K extra, only the 25K after 15K spend.

is it 25k after a 15k spend? i thought it was only 15k. or do you mean total, including the original 10k bonus?
