Our Verdict
This is an amazing offer if you can get it to show. People are talking about certain referral links being 200k, but in reality I think it might depend more on the user who use opens the link (depending on location, etc).
No referral links or sharing in the comments below.
Hat tip to reader Jess and to DDG
Dead?
Applied for the Gold Card in November using the 175K link. Prepaid 15K in taxes (about $230 in fees). No interest for the first 6 months. Today I filed my taxes to get the refund ASAP. It was a simple SUB for a minimum spend that looked pretty intimidating.
It seems that the referral links are mostly expired now. Any chance you could open the comments back up there to get some more active links?
Just use Rankt, I was able to pull up a 200k offer in < 2min of clicking
What is Rankt?
My link for P2 only generated 100k offers, but cycling through the rankt site I was able to get a 200k.
Alas, popup jail.
(Just did a personal green to gold upgrade offer).
thanks!
I have not engaged with Amex in quite a while. Are they still tough to MS to get the SUBs?
im in for 125,000 point mailer i got. i need to book a united flight for vacation. went through various options:
125,000 for $15,000 spend isnt great, but it gets me what i need.
My wife and I both keep getting pop-up jail telling us we aren’t eligible for the sign-up bonus given our card history (number of cards, accounts opened and closed, etc.)
Funny because we each have 2 Business Platinum cards and keep getting Amex mailers for 150-175k signup bonuses for more business platinum cards AND our online accounts show us being preapproved for 75k-125k for business gold cards.
Exactly in the same situation me and my wife are in pop up jail for this card and we both have Amex business plat
Do you get the points for a balance transfer or spend ONLY?
spend only
P2’s referral link only shows max 175k for me (varies between 100k/150k/175k). Seems to be specific to the referee link? P2 only has personal gold/plat. I do see it via other links and via google searches.
I keep getting pop up jail for the 200k offer but recently got a targeted email for 125k. Thinking about pulling the plug even if it’s not optimal because I have some holiday spend coming up…
my p2 got puj for the 200k offer, but was approved using a different referral link with a 175k offer
if youre into cash you can transfer the 200,000 to aeroplan and buy $1450 of prepaid mastercard.
ok last post on this. Further research shows me the best cash out option is
200,000 points —> $2,000 home depot gift card —> $1680 cardcash or $1720 amazon cardcash
