I called last night and the 50K/15K offer was specifically mentioned as not available.

I was offered 35K/15K which totaled 50K miles.

Can you clarify which is the correct incentive?

The offer is 50K, not 35K or 30K that are publically offered.

I applied less than 24 hours ago. Can I cancel that application (35K/15K) and reapply for the 50K?

Just applied for the Delta Gold SkyMiles Credit Card as soon as I got the email since my intentions were to wait for the 50K. I was approved on the spot at the end of the application (which I thought was odd). Card will arrive in 7-10 days and I will have the opportunity to gain 50K Delta Miles.

if I had the Gold card (canceled more than two years ago), can i still get 50K this time?

I do definitely plan on applying for the platinum version (never had platinum before, only one gold, which was canceled more than two years ago)..... I am pretty close to gold medallian.... i need the 15K MQM.

Got a phone number or POID?

Called into AMEX tonight and the rep had no info on this offer.

Edit: Nevermind. Called in to another agent and they were familiar with the current offer, no POID needed. They were able to take my pending application from Monday and apply the current promotional incentives to it.

I applied for the gold card (50K + $50) in March 2014 and just applied for the platinum card (45K +15K + $100) on 8/3/14. I completed the spending requirement on 8/6 and the bonus miles posted on 8/11.

I had a Platinum card years ago that I upgraded to Reserve, will that work?

Update: Called and confirmed that I could get bonus, they don't show ever having the PL card, approved online and approved. fyi - rep said this was from marketing and she couldn't see the offer...

At the time it wasn't public, now it appears it is. Anyone who wants the link, I appreciate it, however, the offer is the same either way.
