Call and see! Then post here what you discoverWill that work for a personal card?
Platinum business and personal are pretty much the same in terms of benefits. The business one does give you access to open savings if that's important to you.I was able to call ... they offered the 100K to me. The 800-number is business. Does anyone know the number for personal consumer?
Separately, What's the "better product:" Personal or Biz? Or Gold instead?
Buy airline gift cards.Are there tips on how to maximize the $200 travel statement credits? I assume frequent travelers can easily use up the credits, but what about the infrequent fliers?

Link? Most I could find after multiple searches was just one 100k offer for $195 (lmao).I'm seeing these now on eBay
I received the same offer by mail two days ago. 75k after $5k.I just received the offer: 75,000 membership rewards points after you spend $5000 from the mail today. I was't sure if this is a good offer, comparing to the 100k but spending $10,000.
One benefit that I was not aware of this platinum card is 20% Travel Bonus: Use Membership Rewards Pay with points and get 20% of those points back as a credit to your membership reward account when you book travel through amextravel.com (It's kind of similar to chase ink ultimate rewards.)
Any thoughts?
A while ago, I looked and came up with nothing. Good luck to you. Drop a hint or two if you find anything useful.I'm wondering if a little googling will help find an online offer for the same thing. With my business expenditures, I think I may be able to hit this card hard
Per the FT thread, unfortunately since the beginning of January, the call in method died. It seems that they caught on the trick and plugged the hole.Why do you guys need the targeted mailed offers? Is the call in method dead?
Got one of the two offers, thanks again!You can apply online with a targeted mail offer (open dot com/getplatinum) using the referral code and the ZIP. It is just more straightforward that calling in and having to flex some social engineering.
I used an offer I was not targeted and after entering the RSVP code and zip, the application was pre-filled with the targeted business' info. I just replaced those with my info and submitted the app. Was instantly approved.Just to add a Data Point Here. I had someone get the offer and they had no interest in it. I tried using their code online and had issues with the application. When I called it in, the CSR called me out on it and said that the reservation code was not meant for me and didn't allow me to proceed with the application with that offer code.
Perhaps someone with uber strong Social Engineering skills can get around it.
