Are you suggesting 91 days between applications for the same card (Biz Plat, Biz Plat or Biz Gold, Biz Gold) or 91 days between applications for any AmEx Biz cards (Biz Plat, Biz Gold)? Thank you.

There was no lifetime language in the T&C.
DO I have to wait a certain number of days to apply again? I was hoping to double dip the annual credits getting a card before Dec 31.

Did you get an email offer? Last year in Dec I got a special email offer and applied. Got approved but one week later got a second email offer. Since the rule was one card per 5 days I applied but the application got declined as a duplicate. I wanted to apply later, but that second link stopped working.

Completed spend over a week ago and did not receive the bonus
I completed spend on two cards on the same day and the same time. One was the blue business Plus card (30k) and the other was the business Platinum 150k bonus.
On the 27th I received the 30,000 points for the blue business plus, but did not receive the no language 150,000 bonus.
Has anyone had this before?

Hi All
I received an offer from Amex for 160K points for getting a Business Platinum card (150K + 10K for authorized user). When I try to apply onine, after I submit my application, I get an error saying "Currently our system is not responding. Please try later or call us at 1-800-519-6736 to apply for a Card. We apologize for any inconvenience". I have tried for several days.
When I call the number (which is incorrect, btw), the agent can only give me the standard 120K offer
Does anyone know what this error means, or how I can get around it? I'd really like the 160K!

2 weeks ago I completed minimum spend (tax payments) on a Biz Plat and a Biz Gold within an hour on the same day; one SUB showed pending 6 days later, the other 7 days later (I got a little concerned after 3-4 days ). Both posted to my MR balance on the same day (another day or 2 later).
I seem to remember past MR SUBs posting within 2-3 days of meeting minimum spend. Anyone else think AmEx now delays SUB posting by a few (more) days?

Getting a 2nd Business Platinum card
I was approved for a Business Platinum card five months ago but was targeted for a second Business Platinum card by mail just a few days ago. Would I get the sign up bonus for the second card?
