Many data points. It don't work.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Any reports on exactly how long the 50% rebate takes?

From 4 different reservations I did this week over a course of a few days, it seems to post 24 hours after booking.

If I have a new plat with and no other MR cards how can I get the bonus points to post quickly? Can I call amex and ask them for 1k courtesy and then once there are points in account bonus will come in?

They don't give curtesy credits anymore, wait till the statement closes.

I'm. Sure there's some reason they should compensate you with points for your recent experience with them :) . Once the account has points it will post faster

Amex business platinum 75k after $5k spend. No language. Targeted offer.


https://www262.americanexpress.com/business-card-application/member/business-platinum-charge-card/login/44442-101-1-CAPOBPLATC

Targeted offer, will say systems are down if you're not targeted. Spend requirement is 5k instead of 15k for 100k offer and it doesn't have once per lifetime language :).

Enjoy.

Works on my husbands account. Will I get approved/have any issues if I opened a Biz Plat in Feb  2016 and shut down? What are the chances the points will post? Not in the mood to make phone calls if it doesn't work out...

Based on the T&C of the above link I, an existing card holder, can open and receive the bonus as well
