Update:Â 100,000 offer is expired.
Thought we would pass along the information about an amazing targeted offer for the American Express Platinum Card. It appears American Express had a targeted offer campaign for 100,000 Membership Rewards points (or 150k Avios Points with 50% transfer bonus) with a new American Express Platinum Card.
Since this offer is targeted, it comes with a specific RSVP code for each targeted recipient. Recipients of the targeted offer can apply online at americanexpress.com/acceptplatinum or call the 877-801-4221 number to apply. When you apply they will ask verifying questions to make sure the RSVP matches the intended recipient.
Â
The non-targeted Platinum American Express Credit Card offer provides 25,000 Membership Rewards® points when you spend $2,000 during your first three months of Card membership. In addition, you’ll receive premium travel benefits including access over 600 lounges worldwide with Priority Pass Select, no foreign transaction fees, bypass airport arrival lines with Global Entry.

Wish I got that offer. If you don’t want it, I’ll make good use of it. 😉
I got one with a 10k spend requirement. Still worth every penny!
that $450 fee doesn’t hurt so much with all the freebies 🙂
@ Howie, did you have any AMEX cards prior to this offer?
My wife got an offer but I didn’t.
Hi oneeyejack – It will go to good use for sure.
Hi Howie – 10k spend isn’t as good as 3k spend, but better than no offer at all 😀
Hi Gabe – Congrats! I would strongly consider taking advantage of it if you already haven’t.
@MSPDeltaDude – I previously had 1 personal and 2 business cards. The target I used was a business target sent to my home address.
I already have a Plat Amx, but I’ve been trying to talk some friends into getting one for a while now. Any way to talk your way into one of these offers?
My mother received this offer and just started using the card. I’d love to get in on this deal but I can’t complain with last years Amex Gold & Biz Gold deals.
Hi Shannon – We tried to both sign up for it, and only the one of who’s name was on RSVP could apply.
Hi Michael – Good call in getting in on those deals.
I haven’t gotten it but would love to!
If anyone knows how to help chances of getting targeted to offers like these (since I never do!), please share!
Hi Benny – Keep us posted if you get it. The campaign doesnt end for a few months.
Hi Curtis – It’s hard to say. MrsWeekly Flyer only has a corp Amex and is also a secondary user on my SPG card. But that is the extent of her relationship with Amex. So we were very surprised when she was targeted.
I got the 100K MR/ 10K spend in 6 months offer in mail. I applied over the phone with no instant decision. Fast forward two days and I recieve an email saying that my Plat amex has been approved and I receive 100K MR with 3K spend in 3 months ! pleasant surprise, though I am sure I could have spend 10K in 6 months
Wish Amex would send me this offer! I have a Gold MR premier and the Delta Plat
Will do! Glad to know it’ll be going on for awhile.
I have two personal and two biz AMEX but would love to add this one.
While calling in to apply for a targeted 50k / $1000 spend 3 months Premier Rewards Gold Card, the rep on the line told me I was eligible for the Platinum 100k / $3000 / 3 months offer. Obviously I took it knowing I would easily hit that
I received the 100k/$3k 3 month offer in the mail yesterday. But I closed my Delta Skymiles card with Amex last April after they initiated a FR on me. I did not feel like providing the tax return documents so I asked them to close my account.
I am wondering whether they will deny my application automatically, or should I try?
Hi Pointhungary – Not sure, but what do you have to lose by trying?
Just wanted to tell you all that on July 15, 2012 I got this offer, yes 2 days ago!! I was so excited!! I called that night!!!! So they are sending them out again 🙂
Just got my new plat Amex today. 100k pts, 10k spend by dec28. No problem;). Best first class award uses?
I got a 50K for $1K in 3 months Premier Rewards Gold offer a month ago, when I went online to accept it, I was offered the 100K for $3K in 3 months Platinum offer, but I just went with Gold.
