Wrong bonus received

Now what to do? My targeted email was for 25K miles to start, add'l 15K after $1000 in purchases next 3 months. Received card about 3 weeks ago, 15K miles posted today instead of 25K. Do I call AMEX or Delta or ?

THanks in advance!

Mine posted in parts, too, so I phoned. They mailed me a letter clarifying the two installments and a later date for the miles for the $1K spend.

Yes, I got this offer as well. It is just insane around here. All these years we NW WP Elites really only got our status via BIS miles for the most part. It is really just incredible.

Safe Travels.

Same here. Seems like the additional 15K will be coming soon. Is that the consensus?

Based on my reading of this thread, no one understands the partial amounts of bonuses that Delta is posting, and we have no idea when the remaining bonuses will post. How are you reaching a different conclusion?

(I met the $1k spend in the first billing cycle. 2 billing cycles have passed to date, and I only have received a 15K bonus out of 40K owed.)

This is for the Reserve Card though, right? At least that's what my offer was for. Remember that there's a $450 annual fee!

I had the 40K offer; they posted 15K shortly after my first use of the card, and 10K with the first billing date. The Amex statement said 25,xxx SkyMiles earned this (1st) billing period. I'm hoping to see the final bonus with the third statement this weekend, but that's just a hope.

Exactly the same with me. I got the 40K offer, so far 25K has been posted in the 15K and 10K increments. Waiting on the last 15K. I feel (slightly) better others are in the same boat, and that DL/Amex is just slow at processing the last 15K instead of a bait and switch.

mnredfox:

I think you are missing my point. For every person that you identify who has already received 25k miles and thinks that they are going to get their next 15k miles soon, I can point out numerous people who have only gotten an arbitrary 15k miles and have no idea when their remaining 25k will post.

Based on the cumulative experience documented in this thread, I believe it is a stretch to draw the conclusion that any additional owed bonuses "will be coming soon."
