There are more people report getting the 2nd $200 claw back when they cancel the card after the 12 months having the card.
With Internet blogs like the one we have on FT, where everyone is telling everyone how to double or even triple dip this $200 credit per calendar year, it is only a matter of time when AMEX to change it.
My advice for anyone that asked me this question had been that used the credit as it show up on your account, but just be aware they could take the back when you cancel. As long as you set the correct expectation to yourself, then it will not be a surprise when they do take it back. Instead, it will be a bonus if they do not.
In case you have more questions, here are the 2 threads that talk about the CDN AMEX PLAT card:

Thanks, but do you think if I cancelled the card prior to the year being up, they will claw it back somehow?
