25% more SPG Amex points

Just had this in my email:
OPEN from American Express® is celebrating the first anniversary of the Starwood Preferred Guest Business Credit Card with a special "thank you" gift.

Enroll now and earn 25% more Starpoints for virtually every purchase you make in November 2007.ą As always, Starpoints you earn can be redeemed at over 825 participating Starwood hotel and resorts or transferred into miles at over 30 frequent flyer programs.˛

It was targeted and good from 11/1-11/30 The rsvp code did not work, but entering the name/password did work at http://www.open.com/starwoodpromo

My question is: Do all cards in the business account count or just the primary one shown on the screen when signing up?
It seems like they all would, but want to be sure. We are paying local property taxes at 2% fee in Nov, so this came along at a better time than the 15% bonus on the personal SPG.

I would asume all cards under the account number. I have never experienced, for example, my card but not my wife's card credited for bonus points. I can't believe I was actually targetted for this one as well!

I can't believe I finally got a bonus offer!!! Of course it was for the
card I never use and that has the lowest limit. Maybe thats the trick. I
have 4 starwood cards and one I almost never use is the one that got the
offer. Time to start charging on it for a change.

Is it possible to get the AMEX SPG Business card without having a business. If yes what do you put for the businees name on the application form?

Thanks,

Jay

Jay, I just put my last name + Associates. It worked.

I just got this offer via email this morning, signed up for it using the offer code provided, which recognizes your SPG Business Amex card number.

At this time of the year, I believe it's appropriate to quote civilization's greatest philosopher:

"I got a rock"
(no to both call-in & logon for business SPG AMEX)

Cmon, SPG, cant you see the bullseye on my back? Target ME, already!
