Did you also get another AmEx card within the last 90 days prior to AmEx SPG or you have had SPG Luxury and closed it in the not so distant past? I assume you get the pop up saying so.

No. There was no pop up. I applied, but it says card cant be approved. I called Amex and they stated they didnt process (not that they denied me) the application because they see I already have a card in the same family. I explained they are two different cards, but they didnt seem to care.

I placed ~$5k deposit for a cruise next summer on the card several months ago (pre Aug 1). Thus, I earned 3x new Marriott points when the SPG/Marriott programs merged. We can't make the cruise so I will be canceling the cruise and the deposit will be refunded. Questions: 1. how many new Marriott points will be deducted? 2. will Amex clawback the points from my Marriott account or will my Amex SPG account be reduced (to a negative balance)?

Can someone please help? I was wondering for the 6x points. Does it eligible if I book it though the Marriott website and prepaid it?
Or I have to choose the one that pay while check-out directly with the hotel terminal? If I prepaid it, it's still charge me directly from the hotel?
Thanks!!!

Do 100K points show up on AmEx account a few days after meeting spending threshold or only at the end of statement periods? Perhaps we need more data points on this?

business v personal bonvoy card
Not sure if this is right thread - so many. We have premiere marriott personal card from 2 years ago. If we apply for bonvoy business card can we get points? Other than difference in annual fee, what is difference on the business v the personal. I know I am missing it - but don't "see" it. TY
