Amex application error - Help!

Hello.

Just applied for a plat gold card but forgot to apply through the recommendation email from a friend. If I call Amex first thing will they cancel the application and let me apply again through the email. My friend isn't going to be very impressed if he doesn't get his bonus as a result of my stupidity.

Thanks.

I'd call Amex and see if they can credit your application to your friend. If not, they can cancel the application if they haven't approved and provisioned your account yet. Best to ask Amex rather than FlyerTalkers.

Thanks for your reply. Sadly Amex don't open for another 11hrs so I thought I'd ask you guys.

If they cancel the application will I be able to apply again straight away?
