Amex Bonvoy Brilliant, prob 3 years old, almost no spend except for Marriott and $25/mo dining. I think I got 65k offer last year. Used online Chat and was transferred to a "specialist" when I used the word "cancel." After the usual nonsense about the perks was offered 20k points for $1k spend in 90 days. Replied this was disappointing and asked if I could get 50k points or 50k cert but was shot down. Accepted as I would like to see if we can get some value from stacking 85k certs next year (less success in past year. Offer specifically states they will clawback if I cancel or downgrade card within one year (fortunately this still leaves time after the next AF bills).
Used to be 60k - Offers are definitely getting less generous
