3000 holiday bonus points for Southwest Visa... Do they count towards CP?

So I'm really close to amounting 60k in spend for the year (I got 50k points on signup) So I'm going to try and get the CP for 2014. I got a note in the mail to sign up for 3k extra points if I spend 5k by 12/31/31.. Would those 3k points count towards CP status? I know it specifically says in the rules the following:

"Purchased points and points earned from program enrollment, Tier bonuses, flight bonuses, and Partner bonuses do not count toward Companion Pass status."

However I know the 50k from enrollment seems to count. Anybody know if these 3k points would count?:

I too got that email offer. I would say no, I do not think the 3k bonus points will not count towards CP. AFAIK, the only "bonus" points which count towards CP are the 50k sign up bonus points.

The 50K signup bonus and $60K spend will get you the necessary 110K for CP. Right?

The bonus points were reported as counting towards CP (screenshot included) in another thread. I'm playing it safe and going 3K over anyway.

Why is this question in the UR forum? Better fit at WN.

The points did count, but only when your statement after you hit the $3k came, not when the spending was done. I got mine in 2014.
