Here is response that I got from amex about 50k miles

Response (Andrea DaSilva)     04/27/2011 03:41 PM
Dear xxxxx,

As previously advised, I can only receive emails through this secured messaging system and there is not a email address available to contact us, other than this system.

Regrettably, even though the link was still showing as available, the offer had expired on 03/31/11 and it was not extended. The link had just not been removed, and the valid dates should have been on the offer in the details.

I apologize that I could not assist you today.

Cut it really close but got in. Applied just over 2 hours ago.
And denied :(

For almost every reason imaginable except having the card before. Is it worth trying to get them to reconsider?

with these people persistence generally pays off... try making somewhat intellectually sounding arguments and be persistent.     write that nowhere on the app page does it list any deadline date for the promotion (it doesn't) and therefore if it's still an active link it's their responsibility to take it down or honor it.  it's a breach of contract otherwise.   etc etc.    don't overdo it; be simple and strong.

Can't hurt to call reconsideration.

You can avoid the charge by transferring to a "non American based airline".

It's a small price to pay if you need your miles specifically on Continental or if you need to transfer to miles before you cancel your platinum card...

Indeed!

Not necessarily asking for your help but asking others out there in the forum.  I assumed that this was the proper forum to discuss this type of thing.
