If you can get a rep to notate your account saying you will get the points after getting the additional cards you should be good to go. Once you get that notation saying you're eligible you're fine.

I spoke to a rep today, and while looking at my account she said, "did you call yesterday about this?" I said I did but got disconnected. She said that the account was already notated with 5721, but she'd add it again. Then she transferred me to Cust Serv.

Even though my account was notated, the CSR said I needed to follow the steps in the email or snail mail offer. She said that in addition to the offer code, there was a unique code needed to "keep it fair" since the offer was posted on the Internet.

Sigh (again). I'll keep trying.

sorry for the quick post as I am traveling right now and I am sure u guys have posted the answer already!

I have a Platinum card. I already have 3 additional cardholders (and have paid the $175). Can I send a SE with the code & ask to get 3 times 10k MR pts added to my account? I am sure the answers is yes...I just want to confirm. Also, should I bother as I recently got an extra 50k and I have no idea why!!!! I think it may had to do with a very valid and very thorough email I sent them regarding a technical bug on their site (which has been fixed from what I can tell). Hope they don't mess with my 50 trying to add the 30k?  ;D

Sounds like you keep getting s@#$ reps Sammy :(

That's not what my MR rep told me. She added 5 cards to each of my 2 Gold cards without transferring me to CSR, and said she was notating my account that if the points didn't post automatically that they would post them asap for me.

Keep trying!

Do you have any charge cards open with the same account? I'm thinking that maybe if you do then they were manually able to deposit points into your account. But being hat I only have a *wood on my wife's account she physically can't do anything. Which leads me to say that the points you most probably got were MR and NOT *points.

Called MR and had the code added to my account then i called the number on the back of my card and had my five family members added to my gold card. I told the rep that i didnt have their social security numbers on hand, but she took their names and DOB's and said that they might send me a letter saying that they need the SS #'s (she wasn't sure about that). So far it has all went smoothly.

Hope i actually get the cards/points!

The MR rep told me they don't need the SSN unless you specifically want it attached to the additional cards. Dan confirmed this earlier in the thread.

They'll mail you the cards.

Are the Gold AUs on Platinum the same as an additional cardholder on my Premier Rewards Gold card . Meaning will I be able to add the same 5 people to my Gold card and to make them Gold AU on my Plat , or they will be blocked etc because they have that card already?

By AU do you mean additional card members? I believe it would be separate as they are being added to a different card.

just added 5 cardholders under 5721 for 50k but the CSR ominously said "this offer code is only for targeted cardholders, were you targeted?" to which I answered yes, which she ominously followed up with saying, "after we confirm you were targeted you will receive 10k points per card."  I gave names and birthdays, no SSN's.  let's hope they don't check!   8)

I dont have a MR account so if I end up getting the points I'm assuming they'll have to be starpoints

Didn't mention a code   just said I heard there was a promo for 10k when adding addition cards.
