I never had any personal plat.
Any thoughts?

I'm interested in thoughts on this, and if it'll go the other way too.

@Dan do you have a link I can use for this card?
(Or maybe you suggest that I shouldn’t get it?)

There is a thread to request affiliate links, but @zer0k1 suggests this card has none.

It was treated as a separate card IME. Opened regular Plat first, which was open at the time I signed up for this.

The language switched back, BUT when they switch the MB to a regular Plat, if you never got the bonus, you'll lose out then, if you keep it open, and never had a Plat.

OK.
I'm referring to now. (obviously)
There is the lifetime language, so it's all different.
Still not sure what the point of your original message was.

Would you stop being so vague?
What did you do?

I'm referring to after the lifetime was in place, at least the ones I did for my wife. I don't remember the verbiage of the terms back then. Are you saying it switched again after the LT ban went into affect?

Just now, the MB had a funny language that implied it was the same as the normal Plat, which I mentioned as a concern upthread. Now the language is back to normal, pretty clear they are separate products

Ok. I also thought it was a given that they were separate products. Now I see what you were saying.

has the loshon of "Welcome bonus offer not available to applicants who have or have had this product."  I assume that means if I have has a platinum card i am not eligible or does it mean the MB platinum card?
