The disqualification statement is still part of the standard offer, but michael_v has received a targeted offer without it. This is not rare, but it is advisable to read very carefully to be sure, and to save the offer.

I have looked again and the "welcome bonus offer not available to applicants who have or have had this product" is not there in both the snail mail and the online application. I will apply on Monday and update this thread with the results if/when the bonus posts. I will also try not to MS the minimum spend.
I have not received the snail mail but the DL email sent me took me to the landing page to log in first. Then it took me to the application area where the nasty sentence is missing under the card image and all the descriptions of the card on the right hand side of the screen.
On the application page under Other Terms, again the nasty sentence is missing.
I sent a friend the URL of the page to log in - he got the landing page WITH the nasty sentence in the same areas on both screen. Therefore it is safe to conclude on this round like in the past, AMEX has sent out some targeted offers.
Saw it on Reddit someone posts the image comparison of the targeted offer and the public offer - you can see the targeted offer took out the nasty sentence in the middle of the image.
Therefore you are good to go. Yes, all organic spend is needed.

Snail/Junk Mail Offer
I just received a junk/snail mail offer for the Amex Delta Gold Personal card. However, I have had the card recently and received bonus miles (with the last year). I know that Amex offers are once in a lifetime. But does receiving a targeted offer overwrite the restriction? I ask as this is the case with Citi and wanted to know how Amex handles it.

The restriction does not apply if it does not appear in the offer. Scroll back to post 177 and read forward.

Thanks, mia! Yep, the terms did not include the dreaded lifetime language. I applied for that targeted (snail mail to me) personal Amex Delta Gold 60K offer and was instantly approved. I hope they honor the terms!

I got a similar offer with no language for the card previously owned. I had the Amex Gold card two years ago. My question is that language is pretty broad and I am not very sure how to read the 12-month language. If I get this card and cancel it after 12 months and 20 days to avoid the annual fee, how enforceable could Amex be in clawing back those points?
