Amex claims they officially don't match other offers, though there have been people that had luck getting matched

If you secure message them a screen shot, do you think it will work to get the offer matched?

Just got approved and confirmed that I still can get the bonus even though I just signed up for the amex delta gold!!!

I think when it says gold it might mean priemer gold bec the agent said that platinum is one of their most premium products.

Is this platinum any different than regular platinum?  I just got regular platinum with 25 k about 2 months back.  Going to cancel it as soon as i get credit for new AA gift cards.  I won't be able to get this bonus will I?  Is there a business version of this card that
I could apply for?

By the way, I just got approved for platinum, gold, and the blue everyday card for the wife (I already have an uncapped blue cash preferred in my name for unlimited grocery spending, just wanted the extra card for small business saturday...)

I just opened a platinum card a month ago to get the $400 United gift certificates and 25000 points. I called Amex and asked if they would upgrade me to the new offer, they said no.

If I take a screen shot and tell them I applied through this offer, but really did not, is there anyway they can prove me wrong?

I am eligible for the offer, but i failed a FR from amex a few weeks ago, so no point in applying :( - I really wish i could have this card, and the points.

Am I the only one who AMEX basically told - "we are watching you. we notice you sign up for bonuses and then cancel. we will not give you more bonuses."?

I don't think it's an eligible thing.

Everyone seems to be getting it.

Does anyone know if they actually stick to their terms and conditions, because I had an Amex plat around 11 months ago. Is there A way to avoid them catching on?
