When to close Amex Plat MB
« on: April 18, 2013, 01:04:19 PM »
Hi,

I know this is a gray area - but if someone could give a little guidance - after I have completed the minimum spend on an AMEX MB Platinum - at what point should I / could I cancel it to get some of the $450 refunded?

I have gone through the forums but haven't found a clear answer.

PM me if you want (-;

Hasn't it been discussed that it's 60 days of approval cuz sometimes the AF takes a few weeks to hit?

You haven't found a clear answer because as you see from this thread there isn't one on DDF.

You are right in practice, not technically.
