Starwood Amex Referral

Is the referral bonus still active? I can't seem to find the link all of the sudden.

I get the offer, but the next link does not seem to be working, just getting
"The system is not responding. Please try again later."

Do you see anything?

It's active. Also, if someone needs the "10k first purchase / 15k after $5,000 in six months", please pm me your name and I will shoot you over the offer. Thanks.

I can also refer for both the business and personal cards. ^

Business card is very easy to apply for even if you don't have a business.

Referral "Deadline" ...???

Quick question ...

The most recent offer I received from SPG/Amex re: referrals has a deadline of 12/15/11 for me to submit friends' email addresses.

The deadline for my friends to sign up is 1/15/12.

So ... my question is ... after 12/15/11 (the deadline for MY submission of email addresses to AMEX), can ADDITIONAL friends (i.e., people to whom I send the link directly, but whose email addresses I did NOT provide to AMEX) still use my link to apply and get their bonuses? And would I still receive the 5,000 bonus points as the referrer, since they will have gone through my link???

I know it's not an exact science and - as always - YMMV ... ; and I also realize that it's difficult to know who follows through on the applications, who gets approved, etc., but for my personal friends and family, I should be able to track it - at least to know if they've applied and been approved - so I should be able to determine how many "bonuses" I should be receiving.

Essentially, I suppose my question boils down to ... whether or not "my" link will still be valid to earn me bonuses after the 12/15/11 deadline for me to submit the email addresses to AMEX/SPG - and whether I'll get the referral bonuses - even if I haven't previously provided AMEX/SPG with the individual email addresses...???

Hope this isn't too wordy or confusing ...

Thanks a million!

Why do all of these threads turn in to people basically begging for referrals?
