Just the other day, I looked at Credit Cards on the top left menu while logged into my account, and a BBP 20k signup offer ($5k spend requirement) was one of the three things it displayed (along with an HH Ascend->HH Aspire upgrade and a Gold->Plat upgrade). I have the older Blue for Business card (and have had other business cards from Amex in the past), in case it matters.

Has anyone else had issues with their referral link for this card? I have 5 Amex cards eligible for referrals at the moment, and the other 4 links work fine. Every time I try to follow the link to my referral for the BBP, though, I get an error that something went wrong. Doesn't matter which browser, private vs. not private session, etc.

I held out as well from signing up for this card when there was no sign up bonus. Missed the 20k, but got in on the 10k referral

For my own purposes, I even think it's worthwhile for some payments that have fees associated with them (such as federal taxes with a 1.7 percent fee), but this is clearly a YMMV kind of thing.
We're holding out on my wife getting one, given the possibility (though possibly unlikely) of a new (albeit modest) sign-up bonus becoming available.

In my defense, I think this is going to be the last AMEX card I can open for awhile...so don't want to open one that isn't providing a bonus...and I already have the Preferred Credit card which provides 1.5MR per $....the .5MR per dollar just doesn't seem worth it without the min-spend bonus (plus self-referral bonus)

I tried to sign up for the Blue Business Plus card with a 10K bonus offer. It says I am not eligible for the bonus offer, but still asked me if I wanted to apply. My expenses on the card will be entirely legit (maybe some tax expenses right now).
1) Rejection for the bonus (probably because I have churned some other Amex cards, maybe 1 other this year) Amex shouldn't impact my eligibility for the card itself, is that correct ? I have other Amex cards (not near the limit) and excellent credit in general. I don't want to waste a credit pull.
2) This card does allow transfers as well, right ? It's not like the Chase or Citi cards that don't allow transfers ? If so, it's clearly superior to something like the Amex Everyday card, which is also no fee, but gives only 1 MR per $ spent (but that card does allow transfers).
