A) If it was said by a seminar it's probably obsolete.
B) You're probably remembering wrong.

What about C?

Amex made me delete it.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Via google searches at the time I found ppl on other sites saying that they got cancellation letters from pp within a week or two of cancelling their amex card (although i dont remember anyone specifically mentioning the plat).

They cancel your PP almost immediately, and you get a letter to that effect. Every once a while they forget, especially AUs. Centurion is no go immediately. Airspace and Delta should still work, although a couple mixed reports recently.

True, but it's still a DP. It would have me assuming it will work here as well, but you'd need to confirm it.

Used Airspace within the last few months without issue. Been using Delta for DW multiple times in the last weeks/months without issue.

AUs have to be Plat, or is additional Green AUs enough?
Anyone with an update on this? Did anyone get the bonus points by adding gold AUs?

How long does it take for the bonus points to post?

The first 100k on business platinum posted the next day of meeting the spend req, I met the spend requirements for the remaining 50k on Thursday but I'm still waiting

Reason is because the amex gift card I bought do not count towards meeting minimum spend

Is it a new thing that amex gift cards don't count?
