I had a lot of trouble, e-mails, phone calls and faxes with Amexco. But as mentioned before, after all the fights I GOT ALL THE PROMISED BONUS SKYMILES!
Generally when you apply with a form or via Internet, a lady from Amexco calls to ask some questions. During this call I asked if the card is free for for one year and if I would get the (10,000) bonus miles. If not, I don't want the card.
To show how Amexco is run: A week ago I got a letter from Amexco Ft. Lauderdale, that I would not get the bonus miles for acc. xyz. I had canceled this card (acc. xyz) in Jan. 2002, and had gotten the bonus miles!
