5000 Bonus Points for Additional Cardholder

[Dr Ralph]

Are people seeing the bonus points show in their account as soon as the $500 spend is met (as usually seems to happen with Amex bonuses)? Have spent >$1k so far and not seen anything. Was not sent an invite however called and was told I was eligible.

No.

I am not sure of your card variant but for my Platinum Charge card was awarded the bonus points even before the spend criteria was met. Was meant to spend 1500 and had the points posted around $1300 spend.

Interesting. The application timed out, and now when I log on it does not appear. Will contact amex tomorrow if it doesn't come back.

Suggest you try a different browser.

That was months ago and it eventually did reappear

I applied in June and just got my 5000 pts a week ago.

I had the offer pop-up and applied for an additional card in June - in my own name so I wasn't sure it would qualify for the bonus points.
I never received my points so I'd forgotten about them, but they just posted today!
Almost 19 weeks after I received the card & met the minimum spend.

Hmm.. hopefully it doesnt take that long for me. I took them up on their most recent offer. Got the additional card mid-Sep with the requirement to spend $500 by Oct 31. Spent the money on the card several weeks ago. Still waiting on the points.

Was there a time frame for the $500 to be spent?

End of this month from memory.

I received my 5000 points over the weekend, and yes I recall the timeframe was end of October.

Just wondering what offer people are currently talking about. The offer I got when I logged in a few weeks ago was actually for 10000 points as far as I can tell. Or at least that's how I read it:

- Apply for an Additional Card by 4 Oct 2019 and receive 5000 Bonus points
- Spend $500 on the new card by 31 Oct and receive another 5000 bonus points

Did anyone else get this particular offer?

I didn't get that. In fact, I had no notification. I had to confirm with live chat I was eligible for the $500 for 5,000 when applying for a new additional card.

What you have there is a really good offer in my opinion. Wonder if you can do multiple.

5000x2 sounds like a great deal that I didnt know existed

I didnt recall seeing that offer so I called up and asked, and they said yes i was elgible for 5k poiints only if I spent $500

I spend it on the 18th sep, but still dont have any bonus points show up

When? I didn't get a notification, and asked on chat the other day and they said I could only get the offer if I got the notification (ie customer chat couldn't prompt it to me)

October 5th.

Really? They checked my account to confirm I was eligible. Maybe it was somewhat targeted. But I doubt it, already had 3 supp cards.

Asked on Livechat in Sep.

Ah ok. My account wasn't open until October so perhaps that's it

October 5th.

Lucky you. I met it on Sep 24 and still havent got anything

The wording is ambiguous for sure but I received this exact offer and confirmed with chat support that the offer is only 5000 points total if you apply for and spend $500 on an additional card.
