I have a biz plat no language offer with same last name. I know theyve been cracking down. Anyone know if this is an issue? Also, can I have 2 biz plat accounts open at the same time/would they approve the second account? Different business but same ss #.

They'll approve second account. Question is if you'll get to keep the points.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

OK fine - will I get to keep the points?

I was referring to the biz plat no language offer, so yes there are points involved.

Statement credits against charges are .7.

Right, so it's not redeeming a charge for a statement credit.

Haven't been following recently, but I thought Amex airline credit works as long as the charge posts before year end, nothing to do with statement close.
