The Offer
- American Express is offering increased bonuses on Delta cards. Unfortunately it’s targeted, the offers are as follows:
- Delta SkyMiles Reserve: 125k miles + 10k MQM after $5,000 in spend after 3 months.
- Delta SkyMiles Platinum: 90k miles + 10k MQMs after $3,000 in spend after 3 months.
- Delta SkyMiles Gold: 75k miles after $2,000 in spend within three months
Our Verdict
These aren’t the best offers we’ve seen. I’d recommend waiting for better offers to return.
Hat tip to FM
Not sure if targeted, but just received email from Delta: 100k/$4k/3mo on the platinum, exp Apr 13
(business platinum card)
I used incognito mode to apply for the Delta Plat. 90k offer but I received a pop-up notification that I would not receive the bonus offer and to confirm if I wanted to continue after I hit submit.
Someone wanna tell me how to pull up the 75 for gold with a VPN and incognito,?
These have been around for quite awhile, can pull up at will with incognito & the right VPN
How
I don’t use a vpn but incognito/private, click, arrow back to previous page, click again. I’ve had 50 go to 90 (Platinum Delta) after one-three repeats. A few times, it didn’t give higher. Unfortunately, I was in AmEx pop-up jail (likely for a link to reg Gold –90K– in August). I would have bee approved but without the bonus, meh. DH applied an was instantly approved. We wanted Delta lounge access the cheapest way for us.
Pretty sure this is the best offer we’ve seen for the Reserve. Unfortunately, I only see it without using referral, referral link is showing 50k.
Applied for gold and was not eligible due to having this card in the past, closed the card in mid 2017
yeah once in a life time term or try 7+ years later
I had closed my Delta gold credit card a while back; several years later, they mailed me a bonus offer to sign up for the card again. So it is possible to get another sign up bonus if you had the card in the past, but the additional bonus offer must come from Delta acknowledging that you were a previous cardholder.
Does anyone have info “dummy booking” offers? The last time it improved the gold to 90k.
when did u see 90k last time?
July 28, 2021. Search DOC. American Express Delta Gold – 90,000 Miles + $200 Statement Credit [Expired]
Now it is 70k/$3k no 1Y AF $200 SC on personal/biz gold
I’m only able to pull 70k/$3k $200 SC on personal gold. Can’t get the biz offer to show at the moment.
Unfortunately the biz gold offer is the one I’m trying to pull, can’t get it through the usual “Amex Cards” link => browse biz cards => dummy booking or skymiles acct biz box => logout => dummy booking. Would love to know if anyone else can grab it.
Last August I jumped on the 70k/$2k $400 SC gold personal offer through a dummy booking.
Got the 90K plat offer, and I use delta, its just hard to justify a $250 companion fare card when I will never use that. Too bad I didnt get the gold offer
Platinum is useful if you’re going after Delta status since it provides MQD waiver and can earn MQMs. Companion fare is not available in the first year anyway.
See these in incognito but probably would get a popup if I apply.
I received the popup.
