Re: AA 50k 150 statement credit and 2 admirals passes
« Reply #2100 on: September 07, 2012, 12:18:35 PM »
In June, using two browsers, I applied for the Visa and Amex branded cards. Although I applied for both of them, and the page said that I was approved, I ended up receiving TWO Amex branded cards and no Visa card.  I previously had the Visa on the last go-around and cancelled it about 18 months before applying for these cards. 

How can this happen?
Will I get bonus miles on both Amex cards-the first 50K have posted already?
With regard to the $150 statement credit, do refundable tickets work?

Thanks in advance.

It should post on the statement, try a SM.

I'll try that.

You have a rare experience.
I did it on 3 cards in the past 2 months with AA tickets, all posted the day before statement closed.

Thanks for the data point.

Hi
I recently signed up for the AA Visa and AMEX together
I pretty much spent the $3000.00 on each to receive the 50,000 sign up bonus on each.
I received in the mail 2 free companion passes (1 for each card) with any purchase of of a full price ticket on AA (which I was not aware was under the promo I signed up for) did anyone else get this?
My question is,
I thought when I signed up I would receive a $150 statement credit per card, but the citi rep said she doesnt see that as part of my sign up promo and that all i have is 100.00 credit if I spend 100.00 on AA. is this true? is there a way to get it?

As far as I know it's $100. That's what I received as well with my 2 AA cards.
And yes everyone gets those companion passes.

And you don't need to spend $100 to receive it. $1 is enough.

There's different offers, you did the 50k $100 Credit companion pass offer after 3k spend, the other offer is 50k $150 credit after 2.5 spend

my companion certs came with a Nov 30 expiration date. I know that its because they stopped issuing the certs, but was anyone able to have them extended or get some  sort of compansation from Citi or Amex?

The vouchers that you get as part of the signup bonus - is there anyway for somebody other then the name printed on them to use them?

You mean this?

Is the companion pass transferable? (The one that comes as part of the signup bonus)

:P

P.S. What was the consensus, are these things worth anything?

Well, I don't know about practically, but technically they aren't transferable.

I haven't done a 2BM for the AA cards before, do I leave the AA FF# blank? Create 1 FF account number for both apps? 2 FF account numbers one for each app?

I put in a new FFN - the same one for each application.
