Delta Amex Platinum 15,000 MQM for App
Received an offer via e-mail for Delta Amex Platinum with 15,000 MQMs for successful application and $1,000 spend in first 3 months. Seems better than the standard offer but do you think this will go up before years end? Was considering getting this card anyway for additional MQMs... Now seems like a good time to snag one.

If you're a medallion, there is a better offer on the DL Platinum AmEx:This promo earns 40k (useless) SkyMiles when you spend $1k in the first 3 months as well, but also earns 15k MQMs at the same threshold.
Not that I'm for earning MQMs with AmEx, but if you're going to sell your soul for worthless skymiles, you might as well get some MQMs that actually have some value in the deal.

I accepted the offer in May, primarily to preserve FO for 2013, even though I will likely pass beyond the 1MM milestone later this year.
It is worth noting that the points post promptly, which I recall might not have been the case a year or two ago.
I have never seen a Platinum offer where the MQM bonus was > 15,000.

edit: called about offer. agent initially wanted an RSVP code. told him the about the number referenced above and still couldn't really use it, i don't believe.
regardless, i told him the basics, and he asked me if this sounded correct:
25k and 5k elite after first spend. additional 15k and 10k elite after $1k in 3 months. $100 statement credit after first DL purchase to card. $150 fee not waived. applied and approved.

I called and the agent said that she was unable to offer anything else besides 15K RDM + 5K MQM after first spend + 15K RDM after $500 spend in 3 months. Any ideas on how to steer a phone rep in the right direction?
Much thanks
