AMEX Platinum Edge Referral bonus

Not open for further replies.
I applied through a referral and although I had another card, I received the bonus. I called them up before applying and they said I would not get the bonus.
However I did get charged the 195 fee, even though the offer at the time only suggested that existing customers would not get the bonus but would also not have to pay the fee - the offer now has also been changed to say that existing members will not have their fee waived. Has anyone got a screenshot of the offer from October or November that lists the benefits and fees? I rang them yesterday and they are adamant that the fee has always been there and would not be 0 for anyone who converted from a previous card.
 
I applied through the link and no annual fee has been charged. When I called was assured I would,get the points bonus as well after minimum spend. If it isn't in my account by March I was told to call again. I am an existing amex customer but had cancelled my card 9 months previously. Sorry I dont have old link.
 
My amex refer a friend link is working after a number of issues last night. Feel free to use it if you want a new Amex Platinum Edge card with no annual fee first year:

I have spoken directly with Amex and the points will be credited after minimum spend so don't stress if the points don't appear in your account straight away. Amex customer service were very helpful.

The referral link can only refer friends through social media - is there another way I can refer someone through an e-mail?

No. You can only use Facebook or LinkedIn. Just FB message yourself, copy the link from the message and send to whoever you like.
 
I clicked on one of the links on the referral forum (not sure whose link it was) but I got approved for Plat Edge, so someone should be getting 10,000 bonus points!!
 
Hey guys, everytime I generate a referral link it doesn't work. Just sends the person to the amex front page. What am I doing wrong?
 
Towards the bottom of your home page/my account page on the American Express website is a refer a friend link,
Have you tried from there?
Feel free to PM me or use my link if that helps anyone!

I'd strongly suggest removing your referral links and posting in the appropriate referral offers subforum unless you want the posts removed and a warning from a mod. They've been pretty clear on this point.

Cool, have done.
Does that apply to Soulfood and wchiri on the previous page?
