how do you get "targeted" by Amex? My credit score is pretty good (~750 now)

Yeah I wish I was targeted.. I think i remember signing up for a "do not send me card offers" list a while back. I have not received a single card offer in the last 4 years (even from United.. Discover..)

I think I saw some internet ads for 50k points on a Business Gold Rewards card. But that's about it.

Amex has sent me many mailers for their biz card. I'd actually rather have that card than the prg I'm carrying. I wonder if I can convert...

Premier Rewards Gold personal card offer of 25,000 points for $2k spend is still available if you look on, say, Amazon.com. Of interest, if I click the link American Express displays this disclaimer in red:

If you have an account with Morgan Stanley, you can get the 50,000 point offer with the $450 fee.

There's the Mercedes-Benz Platinum AmEx that offers 50K points after $3K in spending. I just pulled the trigger on that card, myself.

I have an Amex gold business card that has the AF coming up. I already have a regular amex gold so don't see a reason to keep the business version. Can I re-apply for the business card after 12 months?
