Where did you see such a promotion?

Called to upgrade an employee card to plat, and they offered to enroll me. I said no thanks. They offered 10k. I said I'll take two (2 plats) :)

I went from platnium business down to green card about 2 years ago, I still have the green. Is it an issue signing up with a new platnium business promotion?

If it has language, then yes.

When downgrading plat. to gold, does that effect the once in a lifetime bonus rules, in regards to getting the premier card in the future ?

Yes. If you downgrade to the gold you won't be able to get the bonus for the gold in the future.

Over the phone they'll read the lifetime rules so I would be careful if you're not using an RSVP.

For some reason I was never charged for the amex plat additional user.... I was wondering if there's any explanation.... Anyone have this experience? Also, if I would change the name on the au card would that trigger the charge? Thanks!
