SPG Amex (Canadian Edition) - Annual Fee Waived? (Or what is the best promotion?)

I am looking at the SPG American Express Credit Card (Canadian Edition). If I decide to order it through the american express website, I will get 10 000 SPG Points.

Anyway to get the annual fee waived for the first year? (It seemed it was the case with previous promotions)

I am aware of the refer a friend promotion but this will only be good for my friend as there is no advantage for me to accept his referral!

Is there any other promotions out there that are worth something for newbies?

gets you the 10,000 plus first year free. The previous offer that expired March 30 was 15,000 plus first year free.

The CDN SPG Amex thread is usually up to date with current offers:

Interesting. Where on spg.com?

I see the 15000 points promo on amex.ca but no mention of the fee waived for the first year.

Are you sure it is for the canadian edition?

We Canucks get screwed as usual. The US card had an offer of 25K recently, 15K for the Canadian card is the most I've seen recently.

I seem to recall a 20,000 bonus some years back, does that still appear occasionally or is it a thing of the past?

Thanks for the link, but in looking at the fine print that one has the $120 annual fee. Are there any promotions right now waiving that annual fee that anyone has heard of?

You just have to add a "y" in the URL so that it reads "fyf." Here's the link:

Thanks. Your link works but when I click on "Apply now", I got a response that the offer is no longer available. Am I doing anything wrong?

No idea -- it says by 31 July so you should be fine. You could call them up and just quote that RSVP code of 15000.
