I didn't get one and have most except Costco and business plat. Of course, living in Fresno doesn't help.
Isn't $50 like a free Appetizer coupon there?

Amex sends Palm $50 gift card
I'm not sure with Amex got me this, but my business name was on the envelope, so I think that narrows it down to SPG or Gold.
In any event, the most important term is that you have to order two entrees. The enclosed menu shows that two entrees basically puts you over the $50 even without tax and tip. Still, don't chuck it! Not a bad deal.

Merged with thread discussing last year's offer, which was also in June.

Good catch. So it's not clear at all how Amex decides who gets these.
By the way, looks like many others have gotten these:

For a company like Amex, the Restaurant.com and calendar garbage really reduces their prestige, in my book.

Wife is Plat and HHonors Amex and just received it, I am SPG and HHonrrs Amex and have not. I also am a member of the Palm's 837 Club, so they may have excluded me on that account.
From what I see, there is no indication on its face as to who received it and i assume it is transferrable as long as you pay with any AMEX product.

Hmm, Im LAX based too. Hope I get one. I really like the lobster there. The $50 couldnt hurt. I havent received much from AMEX of late.. Hope they do more promos. A few years back I got a box of vosges chocolates.. That was the last of he freebies for me..

I never get anything good either 
I just started shifting about 10k spend/mo to chase, I wonder if I'll get more or less...probably a drop in the bucket for them...
