Does anyone have a "best practice" for claiming these missed points from AMEX?
They may not post till your next bill. Amex will give up to 5-6k in promise points per account per year for mistakes.

I once was given a 800 number to contact SPG by an Amex CSR that turned out to be a sex hotline (by mistake). I'll let you guess how many points they gave me... they even sent me a gift in the mail as well! They are always great to not only fix problems, but they go out of their way to compensate you for your troubles.
