I highly recommend screenshots or simply having a pre-existing Amex Plat holder do the referral bonus since the referral e-mail clearly states 50,000 points (although for $3000 min spend vs $1000 on this deal).
Same thing happened to me. I applied using the 50,000 link, hit my $1,000 spend, the next day statement closes, the last charge on my previous billing statement is the $450 AF, and end up getting credited with only 25,000 points. Immediately sent a message to MR, they said they'll open a ticket and investigate and I'll hear a response within 10 days or so.
