She put me on hold to speak to her supervisor. After 6 minutes on hold, she indicated that I qualified for the higher offer. She put a note in my account regarding the new offer and indicated that the points will be deposited 6-8 weeks after reaching 1K in charges. BTW, I had applied for the Gold card in Dec. 2010 and closed it in Jan. 2011 and still received 10K MRP points! Gotta love American Express.
Are you doing this before or after activation?
