I have the same thing. I plan to use the 75k offer (w/ lang.) online, then cancel it and use the mail (no lang.) offer. What do you think?
Hmm the 75k offer is on the buisness plat. the 50k offer i got in the mail is personal. This match wouldnt work for me.

OT: I never knew there is a MB version of the plat card. there was a 75k public offer that ended yesterday. Why dont they list this card on their website?

A) That's a business offer.

B) That requires minimum $50k spend in $5k transactions.

Btw, the best value is double dipping airline credit, not triple dipping. If you're a blogger, you're not supposed to write that.
A) I never had any of the plat cards before.
B)Spending is not an issue with me.

Im new here, please explain.

Why not get citi prestige then, better card IMO. And triple dipping will earn you $300. ($400 if you're Citigold).
Ive actually thought about it carefully it's a close call. At the end the platinum won, you can get 4th or even 3rd night free at lots of fine hotels with FHR which is really valuable imo. I'm still open to get both.. Double dip one and triple dip the other.(for free ???)

I was suppose to spend 20k in 90 day period in order to get my full bones, meanwhile I miss calculated and I was short with 4K bucks, I right away charged my card but I missed the boat, it was a day after the 92 days.
Anyone familiar if they would give me the extension? Will they provide the bonus points?

My united account has been temporarily closed due to suspected MPX fraud. Anyone had this?
Any update?
