The Fine Print

  • No one bonus per lifetime language

Our Verdict

You should be able to see the offers on both the personal and business versions of these cards.  It’s always worth checking to see if you’re targeted for these offers if you’ve already had these cards before. If not, these are no different than the standard offer publicly available and sometimes we see much better bonuses come along so I wouldn’t apply if you haven’t had these cards before If you have then now is a good chance to grab the bonuses as otherwise you wouldn’t be able to. As always read these things everybody should know about American Express if you have any questions.

  • Has anyone been approved but did not receive the bonus? I got approved but customer service said that my card is not eligible since I already opened a card earlier in the year. Interestingly, I referred my husband and he got the bonus even though he also had opened a card earlier in the year. Any suggestions on how to get my bonus?

  • I had a Personal Gold Delta earlier that I closed after receiving the bonus. I got the targeted offer now with "no lifetime" language - I applied and was approved. Was chatting with an amex csr regarding a different matter and asked her to confirm if I had any offer attached to my delta card. She mentioned that since I had already received the offer once, I won't be eligible for it again. I told her that the offer details didn't mention anything about once a lifetime restriction but didn't pursue it further to avoid risking scrutiny.

    Any DP on people who received the bonus again after meeting the spend?

    • Yeah same happened to me. Apparently reps are not able to see it but as long you receive the $50 statement credit after purchasing delta gift card you should get your miles. I got mine after being told i would not be getting it again

  • Just got this offer in mail, spouse and I have not been able to signup for any Amex/Delta bonus because we have had them all, but I entered email that was on flyer and was approved for 60000 and $50 credit no annual fee first year with $1000 dollar spend. Yeah! It has been two years since we have been able to get Delta/Amex card.

    • I canceled this card 2 years ago and now got eh invitation, I replied and was approved, I assume can get the bonus after the 1k spend

  • I had 5 personal AMEX cards including Delta Platinum. I cancelled Delta gold couple of months ago. Applied for this Delta Gold offer and went to pending. Received a call from AMEX saying I can have max 5 personal cards and they suggested me to close one card to get this new one. I closed one and now my application is approved. Let's see if they are giving the said bonus.

  • dont show this offer available for me. One of these times... thanks for letting us know Doc!

  • I just signed up for SkyMiles account and I'm getting American Express Delta Reserve (both Personal & Business) 70,000 miles + 10,000 MQM offer after you spend $5,000 in purchases on your new Card in your first 3 months.Offer expires 11/7/18
    Should I sign up?
