By waiting to post for 2 statements, it may be to late to meet the 3k threshold. Advice would be to spend 2k within the first 2 weeks, as soon as the first 40k post quickly spend the remaining 1k and hope for a double dip

Meh, that's the usual CSR mumbo jumbo. That doesn't prove anything.

I'm guessing they forgot to lower the bonus when they lowered the spend requirement.

Get ready for a new crappy Saph Preferred offer

For those that don't read the main site, the 2K link scheduled to die at 3pm.

Watch it go up to 5k.
Here's hoping that it doesn't.

It will revert to the 3K threshold later today.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Is that official? Did they make a mistake and launch something they were considering, or was it a limited time promo?

I don't think that's the way to react when they notice ppl double dipping.
They could find other ways to prevent that.

Frankly, I ain't got a clue.  Maybe a test of some sort to gauge reaction to a lower threshold?

This offer just came out, how would one be successful given they want you to wait at least 1-2 billing cycles before posting it manually?

Frankly, I ain't got a clue.  Maybe a test of some sort to gauge reaction to a lower threshold?

Seems like a lot of work if it was simply to test a reaction... but could be...

If so I am very impressed at how quickly multiple people realized the possibility of double dipping. A couple of days ago there were a few posts with the idea.

If so; Being that the offer only came out a few days ago, and no one had actually SM'd to get matched, and then received the double dip. I was under the impression the it was Dan's link that was new, but there was a publicly available offer for 2K spend.

Do you know what double dipping is? People have been double dipping for the longest time. It works just about any time a csr manually credits your account for (bonus) points that you are owed.
