Seriously SPLP, please try to do some searches before you ask questions. There are 60+ pages of information here, and almost every other page has a report of someone doing it either way with success.

Some CSRs tell people it's expired so they don't have to do any work I imagine.

I'm still wondering if anyone can report success with matching on  the Business Platinum. I've seen some say it 'should' work with a different bonus ID, but no one who could say they've actually done. it.

Business Platinum has it's own code of 5999, but I haven't seen anyone on here try and match it yet.

I would of tried if they hadn't denied me for the Business Plat  :-\
