tried with chrome and got it on second try. SPG personal yesterday, this today.

terms referenced if you hold a amex card you may not be eligible. I hold several amex cards ..PRG, SGP, biz platinum, biz gold, delta amex gold, delta amex platinum but this is my first personal amex platinum.

any cause for concern that I could meet spend and not get bonus?

Tried getting it to show online for an hour with no luck. Called 1-800-243-3888 and told the rep about the offer. She was able to find it right away, and confirmed 100K after $3K spend. Approved instantly!

Note that the term is:
This offer is also not available to applicants who have or have had a Platinum Card® account enrolled in the Membership Rewards® program.

Usually it's like:
This offer is also not available to applicants who have or have had this product.

I have a BIZ plat and just applied for this personal plat offer. Worried about the new language... Any thoughts?

Getting a bit nervous to be honest. Can I cancel before I get the card?
I've already used the new card.

From my recollection reading on the forums, business card and personal card are separate, so as long as you don't have it (Gold or Plat) previously, I think this will still work.

If I'm an additional card holder, but never received the bonus, do I have to be removed from the other account first? How long to wait to apply after doing this?

Worked for me (setting it up for the wife). Took about 30 browser loads (across 4 different browsers), but the 100K deal did pop up eventually...
Instant approval. ^

Gonna dump those 100K MR points in the bathtub and roll around in 'em nekkid!

Thanks for the heads up.

After going kOo-KoO all day downloading different browsers and clicking away my life, I decided to call AmEx and was approved without any concerns. This appears to be a publically available offer and it is a darn good one!

I had to try Chrome, IE, and Firefox... finally got it in a private window in Firefox after about 15 tries. Then, when I submitted my application, I got an error message that said that their system wasn't responding, so I should either call them or try again later. But then I checked my email, and I got a message that said I was approved. Phew!

I've tried the four major browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari) in private and regular for the past half hour and keep seeing 40k. Anyone seeing 100k since midnight?

The wife also wants to apply, but I would like to confirm that the offer at least worked for me first. Thanks!
Have you had this card before?

Been trying since 10:30pm ET with those 4 browsers. Also tried VPN, and tried it on a different PC, with no luck. I heard some having luck with calling. Does anyone know the number to call and what to reference?

Anyone have any experience with opening a personal Platinum Ameriprise, getting the bonus and opening a regular Platinum and still receiving the bonus after the new language? I realize the thread over there states yes, but those posts are pretty dated.
