yes that's what meant.
And what do u say when u call up?
Yuo can say you heard that you can automatically get Gold status with SPG. They will probably contact SPG and get it setup for you.

May be easier to go through Amex Platinum. If need be, they will transfer you over to SPG and tell them.

I know you have to ask nicely, but what do you say? Do you need to have a certain amount of points??

Thanks

First it took me 3 calls: HUCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Second, tell them that you want to use their services more and you are trying really hard to get it.

Basically just sweet talk them until you get an agent that will do it. Just like i did...

I tried so many times... Doesn't work!
They don't want to give me Gold.
The most they offered was the challenge.

Any tips?
