[Expired] AMEX Biz RG 75k for $10k over 4 mos. 1st yr fee waived
 
Looked all over the board and couldn't find this; multiple bloggers have posted/tweeted about it today, so while it is supposed to run through, I believe, 3/14, you might want to jump in sooner.

Link, from which I removed the affiliate ID

Offer states, "Welcome bonus offer not available to applicants who have had this product or any other Business Gold, Green or Platinum CardŽ account within the last 12 months", so buyer beware.

Good personal relationship with Amex - got a pending msg which remains after 4 hours.

Called CSR to offer any information they may need and was told if they need something theyll call me.

Guess Ill sit tight for now.

I want to apply very badly, but I don't think I can swing 10k in 4 months. Even with supplementing my spend, 2500 a month is a lot.

I can't meet that spend, unfortunately. Ahh

antonius66 Mar 5, 2013 2:52 pm

Well, screw it. I went for it. Instant approval. Time to start spending.

Same here. If it was 10k in 6 months I think I'd try for it.

I got the 50k MR Mercedes Benz PLAT card last month.

I've read that Amex may consider the MB PLAT card a different product than the regular PLAT card?

I would like to apply for this deal but would having the MB PLAT card disqualify me from earning the 75k MR points on this card?

That's a personal card, isn't it? If so, you should be fine - based on my reading of the T&Cs quoted - for this biz card. Only one way to know for sure, though.

Thanks, yeah, it's a personal card.

I wonder if I could get a definitive answer from an Amex CSR before I apply.

And especially before I go crazy trying to spend 10k in 4 months.

Ask them about using VRs to meet the minimum spend also, just to confirm. :)

No! Don't--that's a bad idea! :p

The "manufacturing spending" forum could halp you... ;)

mapotofu Mar 5, 2013 9:16 pm

I've read posts on multiple forums that say biz PRG = FR magnet

not sure how true that is (no personal exp), but just a heads up

Some data points though I'm probably an odd case. Just applied and was given pending notice, called and was asked a few questions then approved and will be rushed the card. I'm 20, had an AoR in late Jan. Probably 9 inqs within 6 months (though not all TU; but some, since I recently got 3 Amex cards). AAoA of 0 yr 4 mths. Applied as solo proprietor. Excited to pound out this 10k spend!
