Our Verdict
This offer doesn’t have any lifetime language. If it says ‘We are sorry This offer is no longer available. If you’d still like to apply for a Business Card from American Express click here.’ that means you’re not eligible for this offer unfortunately. If you’ve had this card before you should be able to get this bonus because of the lack of that language, as always make sure you double check before applying. For people that haven’t had the card before there is a 70,000 bonus + $300 credits that might be a better option.
Hat tip to reversesprawl
Just got a targeted 90k bonus via mail today. NLL.
It’s been 10 days and I’m still getting log-in loop for P2 and P3. Chat rep said multiple people reported the issue but it’s still not resolved yet.
P4’s account didn’t have this banner but could see the application form using the direct link (and was approved).
P2 log-in loop is now gone. I can see the application form now.
dead. :'(
still alive, and i urge others to log into their amex and click “add business gold” to check eligibility.
i had an amex offer to apply for the biz plat but not for a biz gold. clicked this link and was still eligible.
I used to have the old business gold reward (BGR). I wonder if I would qualify for the business gold? Do they consider to be different products?
Thank you
If anyone was having the login loop issue, I’d advise trying it again. There were a couple of posts on Reddit this week indicating Amex had fixed the backend issue. I had the login loop before but it is working now and I am able to apply for this offer.
Still having the login loop on my BBP profile, first on a 90k/10k BRG amex offer, then an 80k/10k amex offer, then a 100K/15k BizPlat offer.
Chat reps say it’s because I’m not really eligible for these offers, which isn’t a very plausible explanation
Anyone have the mailing address to send in the paper application? I tossed the envelope, but figure I can try via snail mail. Thanks!
Anyone has good ideas to use the $150 credit for advertisement? Thanks~
I’m in a login infinite loop – doesn’t give me the “‘We are sorry This offer is no longer available. If you’d still like to apply for a Business Card from American Express click here.’”
Does that mean I’m not targeted?
I’ve been stuck in the same loop for the past week. It still hasn’t been fixed (I was told 10-15 working days to fix issue). The offer keeps showing up on my BBP under “offers”. If I then enter P2’s login info (instead of mine), the “We are sorry this offer is no longer available…” message shows up. So I have to believe I’m targeted (and P2 is not).
Exactly the same thing for me. P2 gets the message, but I’m just in a login loop.
So far my ticket from about 2 weeks ago hasn’t been resolved.
Just started to try and apply for this yesterday when I saw the offer. Infinite login loop as well. Driving me nuts, man.
It is fixed now. No more login blocks for P3.
Same.
DP: I’ve been getting the dreaded pop up lately on any amex card I tried for the past few months. A couple weeks ago I got a mailer for 85k after 10k spend on BRG, but didn’t use it. Today I tried applying for the 130k Biz Plat and got the popup again, However, after I found this 90k BRG offer, I applied, no popup, instant approval. Hope this helps anyone in a similar situation
Works for me, but I never saw the offer when I log in, no email either. Is going for this offer the kind of thing that could lead to a shutdown?
I have it too, and I just signed up for a business gold 85k offer yesterday. (With referral)
I’m not going to take it since I have plenty of MSR to deal with right now, but I never received an email or notification in app either.
