Thank you, I did see the other responses.   In the past, for my Plat, the credit has posted very quickly.

My annual fee is due on this card and I was getting ready to cancel it, until I saw that this benefit was going to become available 6/1.   I have about a week before the payment is due.  I realize that Amex will prorate the fee if I cancel later - I'd just rather pull the plug soon.

I tried PGGM for the PRG and did not get the credit.  Does this only work for BRG?  I have used this successfully for my Plat Bus Card.

Did you select Delta as the airline of choice before doing the PGGM? Worked 3/3 in my family

You'll have 60 days from when the fee posts.

Yep - selected Delta. But did pggm right after.  Perhaps I should have given it a day?

No, right after works. Might sound like a silly question but did you buy eco comfort seats?

Actually, yes I think I did.  Is that the problem?  I don't see any other options and thought that was what I did for the Plat.

Credit posted today. (Purchased on 6/6)
Used CHFFGM, because I accidentally selected United as my airline.

Signed up for 50k/$1k in April, hit spend min, and 2 statements later with no points posting.  Any insight?

I was a little overzealous and added 7 AUs.  Officially that means I'm in for $35 x2.  I called to ask if the AU AFs are waived for first year and CSR said no.  Asked if I can downgrade two to green and he said no.  Anyone have any experience?
