Virgin Amex Velocity Platinum card now 110k points

Not open for further replies.
Well Hubby applied Friday ( already has Platinum edge) and didn't hear anything. However he got a letter yesterday saying he had been approved but as he already holds an Amex, then they would take his existing credit limit into account. Nothing about not getting the points, so I guess we will have to wait and see.
Heres my link again https://www316.americanexpress.com/...merHub&MGMURN=AAAABgQTABEfAw==&CPID=999999484

Hi Heg,

I was in the same position and received the same letter back when I applied. I received the bonus points :)

Just wondering how many referral points people have received? I have heard that there is a limit of 10 referrals but wonder if anyone can advise if they have received more than this?

I have had words with AMEX on that very issue. They are unrepentant, it's FB/Lin or nothin'. Let me know if you figure it out as I have some friends that are interested.

But is it possible to copy the link without sharing it so to speak?

Sure is

It is previewed in FB before and you just click on your own link and then copy and paste
 
Re: Amazing Offer from Velocity Amex -110K Velocity Points. Business Class here I com

Been sweating bullets in the hope that signup bonus points would post as I already have an Amex Plat charge and Plat Edge....

Check the statement this morning and happy days! Totally worth the $349 gamble!

Yes, once you open the link in facebook or linkedin (click on the promo box to open the amex page), just copy the URL, you don't need to share or post it.

Just a suggestion, but maybe those who have already hit the 200k max referral points should delete their links??

Here's mine again if anyone interested, haven't had any referral love so far... :(

All T's and C's as per AMEX.

There are a number of links on here and in case there are still AFFers out there who are still thinking about applying, here is my link if anyone want to share the love around.

https://www316.americanexpress.com/...599DE5B1E&mgmerSource&MGMURN=AAAABgQSFw0XBw==

Sadly when I used smit0847's link the points bonus was 80,000 but I'm still happy. Has been a better bonus offer for a while now. All terms and conditions as described above and also availabe at the link site.
