Receiving 75k business gold promo without being targeted
« on: May 30, 2011, 12:07:11 PM »
Business Gold AMEX

@yid
You can get the additional 25k without the upgrade to plat, just mention targeted offer for business gold card 75k after 2k bonus id: 6497
HT: myb821

Another confirmed 75K code: 6499

I saw this on FT http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milesbuzz/1220101-amex-new-round-new-offer-75k.html
and was wondering if anyone tried it yet....and if they had issues in regards to the annual fee. (Im coming off a targeted offer for 50K after 5K spend, waived annual fee)

I don't think so. We have too many threads for all these offers already.

I had the same targeted offer as you, and I got them to match it without a problem, They didn't even  mantion the annual fee,

There's no such thing as too many, especially if you're going to tell n00bs like me to search first before asking repetitive questions :P this offers the untrained an easier time locating what their searching for.

So let's clutter the forums with 1000 threads for every deal so once the n00bs mature they can groan about what a mess it is ::)

I don't think we need to alienate n00bs, but we don't have to destroy the forums to accommodate them either...

Youre definitely right that it eventually clutters the forum, but as you can see many of the Current CC deals end up with 60, 70 pages of thread, if one were to include all the different offers in one thread you'd have 100K plat, 75 Gold, 75 Gold Business, citi 75K or 100K, Chase Sapphire 50k etc etc etc- youd have a few hundred pages. I think that groaning would be louder than the groaning of an extra few threads  :o  ;D

Now smurf, you speak true wisdom....that's a great idea- now how to make it a reality?

Speaking of which, we already require a new thread for this discussion as it has nothing to do with business gold 75K  :P :P :P

I'm not asking for one thread for all the CC deals. I'm suggesting maybe one thread for targeted Amex offers and/or a thread dedicated to Amex matching.

lol, funny ::)

1. I can't make any changes to the forums (e.g. delete threads).
2. Even if I could, it makes no sense to delete tons of user-submissions thus far, but if there was a framework in mind mods could manage future posts.

How soon do you guys think I can get a biz gold without risking F/R? 6497 with 75k is very enticing.

I've gotten two Plats and a PR gold (all personal) and an SPG biz in the past 6/7 months.

All you have is 3 Personal cards and 1 biz, I dont see a problem, then again Im not too fluent in FR. Perhaps cancel a card.
(Its not a 4th personal card...)
