I have carried a SPG AMEX card for 21 years. I was not targeted for any double points tax payment offer.

I called them today to ask if they were offering a double points promotion for tax payments and they indicated that only with the Delta AMEX card.

I indicated that Chase was offering this promotion and I would rather stay loyal to AMEX. I politely asked if they would consider my 21 years of loyalty to their company. The rep asked how much the charge would be and I indicated that it would be $4000.

The rep placed me on hold and returned with great news! She indicated that SPG AMEX appreciated my 21 years of loyal business and she could give me an additonal 4000 courtesy starpoints if I charged my IRS payment on the card. This essentially provides me with the double points promotion.

Thank you very much SPG AMEX!!
