I responded to the 10k offer on my PRG account that I learned of via The Points Guy's post in early April. I sent a secured message a few weeks ago and received the response that they had to investigate. When I got home last night I had a letter stating they'd applied them to my account.

This is almost exactly what happened with me. Responded to 10k offer on my PRG in April. Called about 2 weeks ago and the phone rep said someone would investigate. Got a nice voicemail message today saying they had put 10k in my account.

According to this thread, I applied for the points in early April, and just received the bonus today.

Amazing...early last year, signed up my AMEX PLAT, promptly got 10K.
This year, signed up my GOLD Open as soon as I found out that it was eligible, that was ~2 weeks ago, last week got a letter in mail to confirm sign up and today saw on my MR balance the 5K credit!

Once again thanks AMEX!

ha of course it should be the other way round. they should be thanking all us. their significantly reduced funding costs on revolving credit lines are worth much, much more than the 5-10k points they give us in return

Is there any insight as to why some people are eligible and others not? My mom and I were able to sign up no problem, but it's not working for my dad, and I've been trying every few days for months!

Bonus 5K points for my wife and my PRG's posted 2 days ago (took nearly 7-8 weeks). Wishing we had done the 10K link now Only the PRG's were eligible last time, not the Gold Biz. Saw a link on FW today that works for the Gold Biz on both our accounts. Another free 5K each!

As an update, I got 10k after calling in about the whereabouts of the missing points on my PRG card. They also gave me an extra 1k at the time.

Then last week another 10k hit my account. So they double credited me, or maybe credited both my PRG and platinum, I'm not sure. But I got 21,000 points out of the deal.

Same as previous poster.

Early July contact they manually adjusted 10k after an investigation then last week I was surprised by an additional 10k for the same offer. Thank you MR.

Uh big time wow, our 5K points per account have already posted. Less than 2 weeks! This is compared to the 7-8 that it took for the personal accounts.
