Amex Delta Platinum Business Card no longer gives Companion Certificates?

I thought the benefit only went away for Gold cards, but my annual fee came due for Delta Plat Business and I saw no certificate. I went to Amex's website and they don't mention it either.

Anyone know more about this?

Do you remember how soon after the statement with annual fee came out did you get the cert? My past experience has always been 1 or 2 after annual fee is billed, I can see the cert in my Delta account. Sometimes I get the cert before the annual is billed even.

I had to go back & look at when the annual fee was charged, not something I keep track of. In any case, it was billed on the December, 2012 statement. Another certificate had been issued in November, 2012...possibly a glitch, some others on FT discussed this recently...but I'm not saying anything.

My anniversary date was early March. Was assessed the annual fee on April 2. Received the email and showed up in my DL account last week.

Number of threads on this already. They are now posting the
certificates the month AFTER you are billed the annual fee. It will appear in your account, the next month. They used to post them WHEN they billed
your annual fee.

Call AmEx, maybe they can expedite it for you. At the very least, they can tell you the status of your cert.

Paid the annal fee for the plat DL card a month or so ago and only got the cert this week. Was easy to use at least. Saved $250 and only stuck in EC for an hour each way.
