The offer is for 10,000 MR points. Hopefully my points go through!

Thanks! Just enrolled my dad. I had tried for the 5k offer last month, but it didn't work.

Does income play a role whatsoever in determining who is eligible?

I just enrolled my PRG card with the following message "Thank You. You are now enrolled in the Extended Payment Option for your Premier Rewards Gold Card - XXXXX. Please allow 24-48 hours for your enrollment to be processed."

I haven't received any email confirmation yet. Does anyone know if AmEx sends email confirmation for the enrollment? And how long does take for bonus MR points to post?

Thanks for the free points.

Rejected on my Plat for 10k and 5k offer -- not even going to try my PRG.

Anybody actually received this bonus yet? My plat card was approved, rec'd a letter in the mail last week welcoming me to the program, yet no MR have been posted.

How recently? I submitted last week, and I thought some said they got the bonus quickly. I've already gotten the snail mail confirmation from them.

I haven't gotten the snail mail yet - but if I remember correctly it was about a week ago that I signed up. I received the e-mail offer from them on the 8th and applied either that day or a day or two later.

Edit to add: sorry for the ambiguity in my previous post. I meant to say that I submitted about a week ago the first time around.

Also, anyone know if this changes how the card is reported to credit bureaus? If you aren't required to "pay in full" every month is it still technically a "charge" card?

I have neither the Platinum or Centurion cards however my wife and I were able to registered our gold cards for the 10,000 MR link. I got the email/snailmail letters saying I was approved also. Just waiting out my weeks now ...

Enrolled the platinum, did the PRG last fall.

barelyelite May 3, 2012 3:46 pm

Has anyone who signed up recently gotten the points? Still nothing for me after a month.
