I applied for the platinum amex card with the 50k point offer on 1/22. I have printed copies and screenshots to be sure. I just got the card. Before even activating it, I called Amex to double check that I would be getting the points after I spend $1000 on the card. The agent said that they are now running such a promo and would check specifically if I would be getting the points. He checked and said that I definitely would get the points.
