Amex Platinum Master Thread

[Traveler718]

Does an authorized user "Additional Business Green Card on Business Platinum" have return protection benefits?

Also, once I'm posting, do charges that are refunded via RP or PP still count toward the spend for the SUB?

I started in this hobby 7+ years ago by asking this thread about a mailer I'd received for the platinum. In response I had numerous offers to buy the code that was sent to me since it had no lifetime language.

Those mailers stopped for the last few years but I just received two in the mail. I'm not planning on activating them. If anyone is interested please PM me.

When asking for a cancellation voucher from elal they cancel the ticket on Amex Travel too. Why doesnt this affect the 35% points rebate?

Amex doesn't get a refund request. There is a simply a voucher issued.

Just got this email after requesting a voucher (elal website). Did something change in the process?

How long does it take for the SUB points to hit my account?
And is it the same as BP?

I canceled a few flights and never got an email from AmEx and it still shows an active flight on the portal

Guess I'll be a new datapoint. I don't have any recourse anyway

If you indeed get the refund then you will have both worlds. If you don't get the refund, how in the world will it trigger a clawback of the 35%.

Yeah that's what I'm hoping, but who knows

I did it many many times...
Most of the times the flight stays active until a few days before the flight is scheduled to fly and then I get a cancelation email from Amex, But sometimes I got earlier.

I'm considering downgrading my amex plat (personal) , is the only option the gold card, or are there other  Amex "charge" cards?

The Green Card is the other option.

I'm seeing an offer for 170,000 MR on the Business Plat but no option to enter Sole Proprietor, its only working if I have a EIN

Federal Tax ID (also known as your Employer Identification Number, or EIN) is required to open an American Express OPENŽ business account only if you are a Corporation or Partnership.

is this standard practice?

so same question, someone just told me this. i have had in the past and currently have a blue business card with only using SP with SS#.

FYI you can sign up for free for a EIN NUMBER ON IRS.GOV , takes only a few min

i did this and i was able to sign up for the 60k business checking offer.

Does this open oneself to additional scrutiny?

So after registering for an EIN... the Amex app now offers a Sole Proprietorship
