They also make no mention of not being eligible for the 75K if I have a BRG already, except for the cryptic "Limit one offer per Card Account".

I went online to open.com/getbusinessgold, logged in and saw the application online promising 75K/$5K. I'm thinking this might be too good to be true since I literally just opened my BRG a month ago. Is this just AMEX marketing going haywire? I wouldn't mind another 75K bonus!

Here are the complete T&C's regarding the offer:

"To be eligible to earn additional points, your application must be received by 04/24/2015 and you must charge $5,000 of eligible purchases* during the first 3 months of membership on an eligible Business Gold Rewards Card from American Express OPEN. If your application is not received by 04/24/2015, you will not be eligible for the 75,000 additional points after $5,000 in purchases in the first 3 months offer even if your application is approved. American Express reserves the right to modify or revoke offer at any time. You can earn 75,000 additional points after you spend $5,000 or more in qualifying purchases on your Card within your first 3 months of Card Membership starting from the date your account is approved. In rare instances, your period to spend $5,000 may be shorter than 3 months if there is a delay in receiving your Card. Also, purchases may fall outside of the 3 month period in some cases, such as a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction. (For example, if you buy goods online, the purchase date may be the date the goods are shipped). The 75,000 additional points will be credited to your Membership Rewards account 6-8 weeks after you have met the purchase requirement. For questions regarding your Card account, please call the number on the back of your Card. Qualifying purchases can be made by the Basic Card Member and any Additional Card Members on a single Card Account. Limit one offer per Card Account. Offer may not be combined with any other special offer. Terms and Conditions for the Membership RewardsŪ program apply. Visit membershiprewards.com/terms or call 1-800-AXP-EARN (297-3276) for more information. Participating partners and available rewards are subject to change without notice."
I am in the exact same boat and now I'm nervous and not positive. No terms in the mailer state any limitation and I think I brushed over the terms on the website itself.

When I go through Amex's public pages, above the language you mentioned it says "Welcome bonus offer not available to applicants who have or have had this product within the last 12 months" along with the "Limit one offer per Card Account" language.

Do you have a screenshot of the terms you are mentioning? I am not able to access them as I already signed up
