Got my biz card approved - they only needed a street address (I put in a PO Box; yeah, yeah, I know...). Will also extend my SPG Amex validity to next July. My personal card would have been due for renewal in Oct and I didn't really want to pay the annual fee. Now I'll just cancel the personal and keep the new biz card.

Wife and I received emails congratulating us on being approved for the Business card. In the third paragraph it has a link "To learn more about your new card right now, click here or go to www.americanexpress.com/opencardbenefits".
If you click the actual link, it takes you to a web page about the HHonors Surpass Card
When I try and open the "opencardbenefits" web, it says the web page is no longer valid.
Has anyone else received this same email?????????
Glad I know about the benefits.

I'm just a bit confused cuz I don't really know a lot about the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Thanks!

Did you happen to also apply for the AMEX Gold Business card or something like that? I got that card a couple weeks ago and it is part of AMEX's Open program. I don't remember what that email said when I got approved, but it was part of Open.

Among other things, some business cards do not offer the same rights/protections if you want to dispute a charge.

Oh, ok. I thought it was just an interest rate thing (something that shouldn't matter to anybody who's using a rewards CC), but I wasn't aware of the dispute part of it.
Thanks

Is the offer still alive?
I know the date was thru 7/6/2010 but the original link still takes me to the app page with 30,000 offer.
Family member I mentioned this too just called me and wants to sign up.
I read back a few pages.

Just got the approval for the card. It took 7 days as opposed to 14 days.
Haven't received the card, however.

Both wife and I just got approved for the Business version of the card. We called and had to do some verification and was approved over the phone. ^

Approved for the personal card. The status for the Business card said "cancelled". Called the 800 #, she said it was a glitch in the system, she was reactivating the application, and I should know by the end of the day.
