It might not be the standard offer (which excludes former cardholders). If you have had this card in the past this offer may give you the opportunity to earn 25K points after minimum spend. However, you will need to read all disclosures everywhere to make sure there is no language excluding you.

Yes, there is a better 50K offer. But you will need to be solicited either through the mail (in a envelope similar to the one you received this time) or email with a specific RSVP code. To the best of my knowledge AMEX will deny you the signup bonus as a former cardholder under any other circumstances. But AMEX is struggling, so even that can change at any time at their discretion.

seems like converting a card to amex everday might have triggered mail offer in my family. got 25 and 50k offer for same person on same day. the only thing we did was convert and check for pre-approved offers (there weren't any at the time).

Does the mail offer contain an exclusion from the bonus points if you ever had the same card before?

Has anyone been able to get this offer recently? Have been trying like crazy for the past 3 days through a variety of browsers and nothing.

Guys! I tried for way, way too long...all you need to do is use Tor and you will get it to populate. It took me maybe eight attempts and it worked flawlessly--keep in mind, I had previously used VPNs, different computers, different locations, and different browsers. Tor was the only thing that worked! G'luck!

When did you do this? I tried a couple of days ago with Tor and still wasn't able to get it. Is there a specific link you are following?

I also tried with TOR and was unable to do it after multiple attempts. Can you please provide some more data points:

1. Operating system: Windows XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10?
2. Tablet, laptop, desktop?
3. Processor (if you know) and speed (GHz).
4. If you don't mind, where are you located?

Be careful with TOR as it will send it to their Fraud department.

I would not be surprised. TOR is showing some of the nodes as France, Austria, Estonia, etc., etc. Still that one report on this thread says it is so easy to get the 50K offer in Tor, I haven't been able to replicate that at all.

FYI: I used standard Google Chrome Incognito and was able to pull up the new 50k/$3k offer (Canadian IP). I exited the window (and changed location to Netherlands IP) and was able to pull up the 50k/$1k offer in a new Incognito window

When you say you tried for over an hour what is the process? Do you just continually click on the link or do you exit out of Tor and try it again?

I tried it again with the Tor browser and after several attempts it did work. After each attempt I clicked the option "New Identity" in the Tor browser and it took about 5 attempts.

Also, I was required to call AMEX and verify my identity. It was a simple 5-minute phone call in which they ask you a few basic identity questions based on public records.

Every time 50k after 1k spend from Japan

This is my first post, but FWIW I live in Japan and am able to make the offer pop up every time. Maybe if you have proxies/vpn point it towards Japan or another country and see what you can get.
