It doesn't say any specific amount, just any charge with Delta. I would think a snack basket, or an adult bev would be good enough. You should sell your HOOU (if you have one) to your seatmate to offset the cost too!

delta.com's main page advertises:

40,000 BONUS MILES, FIRST BAG FREE
And priority boarding on Delta flights. Now with 2 Delta Sky Club® passes. Apply today.›

When I click the hyperlink https://www.deltaamexcard.com/40k/MarPA/hero.aspx, it takes me to the login screen after which I am being offered 40k and no passes. Note that the URL after login is https://www.deltaamexcard.com/Offer/RVK7RLSD.aspx, which is different than the URL off the main page.

Is there any way to make this work with 2 passes? Am I doing something wrong?

If not, is this not bait and switch?

The Business and Personal versions of this card are different cards and should both trigger separate bonuses.

My targeted offer says I can get both cards, but has wording that may suggest only one bonus... I'll probably apply for both this weekend as well.

So I went to apply for this card. I went to www.deltaplatinumoffer.com , which asked for my DL # and last name. Cool. It showed the 40k offer, I clicked personal, and applied. Pending. Okay, whatever, I'll call back.

Cleared cookies, went to the website, entered my info... and it says "Thanks for applying"! No option to apply for the biz, and now it's 4/23. Argh!

Out of curiosity, someone who hasn't tried, can you go to the website? Is the offer still showing?

Me too. And the amex application page doesn't have any mention of an expiration date.

Anyone have the POID on this?

I applied for the personal version of this card yesterday and was approved. I also tried to apply for the business version, but I got an error: Delta wouldn't let me apply online for biz and pers. I called today but they can't do anything without the POID. I'm looking at the letter I got right here, but I don't see an RSVP number or POID on this.

The miles and MQM's from the Biz card posted also, but not all of them. I should've gotten 25K miles and 5K MQM's after first spend, but I got 15K miles and 5K MQM's. Going to wait a couple days before I message about it.

DavidAL, any update? My first use points and MQM posted pretty quickly, well before my statement closed, within a couple of days of hitting the spend.

I'm posting because the offer seems to be live again -- immediately after applying, I only saw the Gold DL Skymiles card. But I clicked this link: http://www.deltaplatinumoffer.com/ and now I see the Personal and Biz versions of the card. (I already got the Personal so now I'll apply for the biz.)

Edited to add: The new offer expires 6/17/2012. Consumer Card POID: AAY0:0001; Small Business Card POID: AB1J:0005. Full T&C:

I did get all I was due after 1st spend, but haven't gotten anything for the $1K in 3 months. They told me wait until 5/24 (which was 4 weeks after I met spending), and if they don't show, then they will manually give them out.
