Our Verdict
If you have any questions about Pay Over Time (e.g hard/soft pull) I’d recommend reading through our F.A.Q on the topic found here. You don’t actually need to use the pay over time feature to get the 10,000 bonus points, you must simply enroll in it.
Hat tip to readers @DetailMyLife/@wgzavala
I got the offer in snail mail today!
AMEX enrolled me in Pay Over Time without asking for my permission or offering a bonus. Just received a regular mail the other day saying congratulations you have been enrolled. Is it something they are allowed to do?

Am I the only one getting this?
no you’re not the only one
Finally got this message after never being targetted for it.

No email for me yet so I called and gave them the offer code. Rep claimed it was a legitimate offer but the “infrastructure” required to apply the offer was not available yet and said to call back in 24-48 hrs.
+1 they told me the same thing, because the main office in FL that processes this offer is closed due to the hurricane and to try calling back Monday. I did confirm with her my card was eligible 🙂 Thanks again Doc!
They told me just now to call back on Wed, they’re still unable to process over the phone due to the hurricane in FL.
Still unable to process over the phone (FL HQ has no electricity) so was routed to sounds like Phillipines call center. Guess I’ll try next week.
Looks like call is still being transferred to Philippines. They said it will be a week before the offer codes are uploaded on their end.
As noted above, I get an internal server error with the link provided
When Amex increases the bonus on their platinum to 100k, does it increase our for the Schwab platinum as well at the same time?
It hasn’t in the past
Link is showing up as “Internal Server Error”
DIRECT LINK IS NOT WORKING, please recheck
I submitted an offer I have on 2 personal cards for 20k MR with $200+ spend on some website called Intermedia but either the web submission and Will’s email don’t work or they didn’t care to share it. Expires 9/25 and I figured someone might be interested since that is sign-up-bonus level for very low spend and if you need any businessy cloud services it would be a no-brainer. Odd though that it is on personal cards rather than business cards.
Jake, I took advantage of this offer, too. I signed up in August, and I canceled my service before the end of August using the instructions in their help article.
Intermedia did not charge my Amex until September, billing me the pro-rated amount for August (which I expected) along with an invoice for all of September (which should not have happened, as I canceled – and screenshotted the cancellation confirmation message).
I emailed their customer support, but I’m still awaiting a response. Just be aware that this could be a problem for you, too.
Thanks, Jake. I’ve been on vacation and haven’t gotten caught up yet.
