Also a Targeted Platinum Delta Amex Card Offer
I am posting this because it is larger than the 30,000 miles bonus they are currently running on the main website.
- $100 Statement credit after making a Delta purchase within first 3 months of membership
- 25,000 miles after first purchase
- 45,000 bonus miles after $5,000 spend in first 6 months
- $95 fee waived for the first year
- $100 statement credit on a Delta purchase within the first 6 months.
- 25,000 miles, 5,000 of which are MQM's, on the first purchase
- 15,000 more miles, 10,000 of which are MQM's, on $1,000 spend within the first 6 months.
- $150 annual fee IS NOT waived for the first year.
This offer has been around; wife got all of this about six months ago.

Just change first name, last name and enter your skymiles account number! (Thanks to kalametty for the tip! It worked great!) I als recommend using Firefox as I was having issues with Internet Explorer.
My first post, btw. Thanks for the great info!

I got this offer by mail, which appears targeted based on my existing elite status with Delta. The application form already has my Skymiles ff number. The offer expires Oct 21, 2012.

Eager for this offer but closed my last Delta Gold Amex in Feb12. Only have 7 of 12 months necessary for the requisite gap in apps.
I'd very much appreciate hearing from anyone successful in applying and confirming the offer with a prior Delta Gold Amex < 12 mths from close.

Thanks. I guess next time I'll be more diligent about canceling around the 6mth mark and not the 12 mth. This time it cost me.

Here are the T&Cs - I interpret this as having to wait 90 days.

--Data Point:
Last Delta Gold opened Sept '11, cancelled December '11.
Approved for this offer.
I interpreted the T&C as, as long as you don't have an OPENED "similar product," and got the bonus, you are eligible.

Question about ANY Delta AMEX Card
Hi. First of all, thanks for the information on the way to get the 70k miles with the Delta Gold Card. I first found out about this last night through a credit card blog I go to and it linked me to Flyertalk. I applied for the card and received the confirmation email.
My question is, how long does it take generally to see ALL the miles listed? I want to spend the $5,000 ASAP (my way of spending it is buying gift cards to places I go to regularly like Target, Walmart, and Costco). They are giving you 6 months to spend the $5,000 but if I spend it all in 1 month, will I see the miles posted within a few weeks, or do I probably have to wait much longer? I'm a teacher and hoping to go to Paris during my spring break which is in March.
Thanks

Welcome to FT. Your bonus miles will post pretty quickly. My recollection is that some post even before your statement date. The rest will post immediately on your statement date.
