Am I too greedy?
Am I the only one who got shot down since they already matched the 100K offer on my Plat?
I opened both Plat (in Feb.) and Gold (in May). For Plat I got 50K and was later matched to the 100K offer. For Gold, I got 25K and emailed/called a few times all got shot down since they said they had already given me additional 50K for my Plat and could not do the same for the Gold.
I would like to see if anyone who get both 100K for Plat and 75 for Gold. Maybe i am too greedy and should stop???

Another data point. Applied more than a month ago, completed spend, and received the lower bonus recently. Called two days ago to receive the balance of points to match offer 5894 and was told that it couldn't happen until 6-8 weeks had passed. Will try again with a different rep tomorrow.

Also, once you reach the spend you can ask they expedite posting your points. If one rep says no, write back and ask another. For my Gold card from card receipt to points posting it was 5 weeks and on their normal schedule it would probably be 8-10 weeks.

Think I may have wasted a hard pull on this one. Applied and got approval 10 days ago but still didn't receive the card. If offer code does expire today then I'm out of luck to bump up the points. I don't have an acct with Amex so CS can't take any prior request to note my acct.
Hope they can honor the promo after today (and when I receive the card

Damn wish I had seen this earlier. I had a 50,000 bonus points for $500 spend offer (I've never had an AMEX gold, only blue). It's been sitting on my desk and I was tempted to do it, since it expires July 3. Well last night I did it and got approved. Now I hope I can get the extra 25k miles once I activate the card. I wish I had done this a month ago instead of waiting til this deal was expiring.
Next stop, Chase Sapphire!
