100 SC from Amex Velocity Platinum, any who know how long it takes to get them?

[LeighP]

So this month I hit the requisite $50k on my Amex velocity platinum card that makes me eligible for the 100 bonus status credits from the card benefits. I know the sign up points showed up as soon as the third month came around (spend $3k in 3 months, get bonus points) does anyone know if status credits work the same?

I have one more flight this month, and two more lounge access passes on my silver account. I’ll hit gold with that flight and the 100 points, but have another flight with my wife (who’s never been in a lounge before) mid September, and I thought it would be novel to get her in.

Basically just debating whether to use my passes this month, given if I get those status credits at the start of the month (when my Amex month starts too) I’ll hit gold, or save them to make sure I can go in with my wife if they usually take a few weeks.

Any advice for people who have an Amex velocity platinum and have paid any notice to the bonus credits would be great!

Can answer my own question. It looks like it happens when you hit the threshold regardless of whether it’s at the end of the billing period.

I would assume this happens when you pay off the card (I usually pay off my card weekly/fortnightly, not just at the end of the month) and you hit that threshold.

Hope this helps someone else.
