I did a 2bm with personal gold and personal platinum. 50/$1k 100/$3k Got both immediately approved.
Now I am reading that I can only get one bonus. For some reason they made me make two sign-in one for each card. Two user names two accounts.

Will I get both bonuses? Any shtick? My gold was the first one to go through, should I call and ask or forget about spending $3k on my platinum?

Anybody have a 100k platinum or 75k business offer that they would like to share? Yes, they are reusable.

I closed my PRG on 11/25 and would like to apply for a Personal Plat and get the bonus. Any tips to ensure I get it?

Well, I don't have an MB Plat offer. :)

Interestingly, no where on the mailed offer does it say anything about not having the product/card before or in the last 12 months.

And if this one doesn't mention anything about not having this product before, then I should be good to get the offer bonus?

Do you have 60 days to cancel a au plat biz card? Are there any other benefits for a au to have a plat biz card?

yes, thats why they charge you $ for the additional w benefits.. otherwise you can just order an AU without benefits (green colored card) for free.

NO I've gotten both bonuses on Plat and BRG when done as 2BM or separately. I would recommend you to do a  2BM on Merc Plat and reg Plat. Mercedes you can have 50k and plat a 40k, unless you have a targeted 100k
