Just a quick heads up for anyone on the fence. I applied on 9/19 using the direct link on the first post. Took a bit for the app to go through, took a secure message and a phone call to figure out if it was approved or not b/c never received a confirmation email. Also confirmed the 80k sign on bonus is attached.

It's always good to read the last couple pages of a long thread to see what the current situation is. Such a read would have let you know that many people are having success in recent weeks.

Applied and approved on Aug 23
Received card on Aug 31
Purchased a pack of gum on Sept 5
Statement closed on Sept 14
80k PC points + points from my purchase post to my PC acct Sept 17
Used points to book room for 2 nights at IC London for a value of USD 1,346.31
So, for those of you asking if this deal is still good. Yes, it is.
Though I have already used my sign-up points I plan to keep this card for the benefits. The anniversary night and Plat status is well worth the annual fee.

I didn't go into the details of booking the IC room as this thread was about the PC card and if the 80k points offer is still valid. My point is yes, it is alive and well.
