No not this specific card. Hopefully that means it's not a problem?

DH met spend on 5/27, posted 5/29. No sign up bonus yet. Doesn't it usually post right away, as in like within 1 day of the transaction posting? He never had PRG before, only a green card cancelled about 1.5 years ago.

DW just received her 50k bonus. She had a regular Gold card that was downgraded to a Zync card 6 years ago. Now I hope there is one last JetBlue bonus before B6 leaves Amex in 2016.

I just scanned the platinum card thread. They split up airline GCs into 2 $100 denominations for the purpose of getting the $200 airline credit.

With the new gold $100 airline credit, is it necessary to do the same with 2 $50 GCs?

Not necessarily. The idea is that the smaller the purchase, the more likely it looks as an incidental fee, such as, a baggage fee. You will read of all amounts from $50 to $200 being reimbursed on the threads you mentioned.

After 3-4 tries yesterday I got the 50k offer to load. Alas I didn't apply and tonight I can't get 50k to load. I've tried 2 computers, numerous browsers and different IP addresses. Nothing doing. Oh well.

You could also check to see if you have pre-qualified. After trying to get the link to work for about 30mins on two computer and two browsers I finally decided to check if I pre-qualified, and sure enough the 50,000 offer was there.

Did about a dozen tries just to check. No luck either.
