Call the number on the back of your card and just request flight redemption

Alright - I'm going to give this one a shot despite only having my DJ's Amex for a few months.

Will post back when I get some news (hopefully the good kind)
 
You need to already have the Amex Velocity Platinum card to be able to offer this referral. You cannot offer this card if you only have the Plat Edge card.

Where does it say this? I was going to refer the missus... found the link after logging in into my Plat Edge card and it appears as though I can refer - it says they'll get 110k and I'll get 20k. Can you please let me know where it says you can't I don't wanna get caught out.

When you go to the 'Refer a friend' page of the Amex website, it asks you to select which card you hold first. When I select platinum edge, it only lets me refer the platinum edge or the platinum rewards card. Are you sure you're selecting the platinum edge when choosing your card?

Thanks Arrow. You are right, I selected the wrong card!

So I hold the Plat edge. Does this mean I can select the Velocity Plat card (as the card I hold) and it will generate a referral page?

If you hold the Velocity Platinum I would suggest then you can select that, if you dont you cant. Or maybe you can, but then not get the points.

When you attempt to generate a referral you need to enter in your card number. I would suggest that this means you can't generate a referral without legitimately holding a Velocity Platinum card.

Is it possible to book the free return flight attached to this card as an open jawed flight does anybody know?

Last time I tried to do this, Amex won't let me do this. It has to be a return ticket.

Can we family pool lounge passes? I'm about to refer my wife & apart from the points, she won't be needing the lounge passes.

I don't think you can do this unfortunately. Would love to if possible though.

Return as in origin and destination must be same? ie MEL-HBA / LST-MEL not acceptable?
 
Just another data point- my husband was approved yesterday (within a day of applying)
He works part time, so only made the income requirements because we have rental income.
So if you're hesitating because of this criteria, don't! Give it a whirl :-)

From what I've seen no income verification is done at all. I wouldn't be surprised if my neighbours dog was approved, assuming of course he didn't get hooked on store cards when he was a young pup.

My niece applied last week and was approved. She doesn't meet the minimum income requirement.
 
I just applied and was accepted instantly, well under the income requirement. Now where to go... :D
