Signup bonuses are pretty low with AMEX these days. The calm before the storm :S

Most likely in your cache. Try going into cards directly from the Amex Canada page. No need to sign in.

That information is left there for existing cardholders. Because people still have the credit card. Chances are existing cardholders will be allowed to continue to keep the credit card.

AMEX stopped taking new applications.

Anybody know if AMEX Canada Sheraton card ever goes on promotion? higher points and FY Fee waived?

Just moved to Canada after 6 years in US and finding it difficult to compare.

I think it has been 2+ years since they had a FYF and 20000 pt sign up bonus.

I am one of many who are waiting for either a bump in bonus or a FYF to get this card!

Surely you mean the SPG AMEX, right? ;)

Until a few months ago there was a 21K bonus for new signups referred by an existing member, but you still had to pay the annual fee. The other offer in the past was 10K signup FYF.

Get used to it, we don't have the insane signup bonuses like they do down south, nor the opportunities to generates miles on the cheap.

Here's the thread on the American Express SPG Canadian version: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/starw...ee-waived.html

I've been waiting for the fee to be waived for a while now too. I was really hoping to get this credit card soon.

SPG is the only card I've paid for since whenever my last Aerogold fee was paid maybe 3 years ago or so. I did just that, referred my wife for one too. So for $240 and a bit of spending, we now have about 60,000 SPG points which should be good for a week's stay in HKG next year. Decent value.

I used mine for 5 nights in Sydney over new year, which would have cost $5000!

Delta Skymiles Canada ?
 
Does anyone know if the Canadian version of the Delta Skymiles shopping portal still exists ? None of the links I have from a couple of years back seem to work.

Or can you suggest a shopping portal where I can earn miles / points for purchases from Homedepot.CA .

Thanks very much.

I am feeling that way because of no transfer bonus yet this year. :td:

Same here. I am really hoping to see something soon. AMEX seems to be much more quiet this year compared to 2013.

Net value of a signup is $305.

1. Start a Great Canadian Rebates account if you don't already have one.
2. Use their link to apply for a Capital One® Aspire Travel™ World MasterCard®.
3. Annual fee is $120.
4. Great Canadian Rebates will pay you back $75 after a few months.
5. The 35,000 miles can be used against a travel purchase up to $350.

Just FYI looks like this deal is still available through GCR.
One of the best non-Amex deals out there currently.
