can i get some clarity here: dan posted the option of triple dipping if i signed up in dec 2021. so when does the annual fee post if i signed up dec 20, 2021 lets say? how do i get into 2023 without the af posting?

ETA: ok so i see this airline info here which is good.

now my question is that this dell info here sounds like it could end up with 800$ total is that correct?

Amex now has a promo of 25% extra Air France miles when transferring. I just transferred 250k yesterday. You think Amex will do anything for me?

Do Business Platinum cardholders get their own clear membership credit- like TSA Precheck/GE?
Green cards also?

I was shut down by Amex a few years ago.
Never tried to apply again.
I just recently received a mailer for my business.
Does That mean I can get approved, or once they see who the business owner is, they'll just deny?
Side question, I already received the bonus for business Plat on another business. Can I get it again at this business?

"Purchases by both the Basic Card Member and any Additional Card Members on the Card Account are eligible for statement credits. However, the total amount of statement credits for eligible purchases will not exceed $189 on the Card Account per calendar year."

Downgraded Plat to Green earlier this year after using the Airline credit etc. Received an offer to upgrade the green to Plat this month for 25k MR. Upgraded and was able to choose new airline, but it seems like the $200 Airline credit is being counted as already used. Am I out of luck?
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.
