Do you have to be an amex card holder already? Also does any amex card number work (I have a citi AA amex)?
After you apply for the 25K offer for $1000 spent, when you call up to get it changed to the 75K offer do you only have to spen $500 or the whole $1000?
Thanks
If you read through all the posts, you will see that almost everybody who succeeded applied through a 10K or 25K link first. After that you can start working with the MR department to get the 75K adjustment. Also, it helps to meet the 1K requirement asap. You just have to bite the bullet and hope it will work out.
