Hopeful about earlier note - had a Delta card about 10 years ago; may not get bonus.

How poor is your credit?

The 2500 miles posted to my skymiles account yesterday.

time travelling, back from the the next year?

I doubt they have a record of that promotional offer. I signed up for an AMEX Gold in May 2006 for 25,000 point promo. As of last week I had never received the promotional points. After being transfered from an AMEX CSR to a Gold Card CSR to a Reward CSR to a Promo CSR they supposedly had NO record of the promotional offer.

No. Please share details of this offer.

iammichael78 said:This came as a direct mailing from Delta for the gold card. Details include: no-fee first year, 15,000 miles for sign-up, 2,500 extra for AU, and 15,000 miles when you spend $5000 by 3/31/06 (10,000 bonus miles in addition to the 5,000 SkyMiles you earn for your card spending).I received a similar offer a few months ago, but my deadline was 11/30/05. Since I received the sign-up 15K 2 gold cards ago, the deal isn't 32.5K for me, but was still good enough to earn my application

My husband applied for his promo and got his card along with mine...Now, can I add his card under my account to manage, or do I need to create a new account for him? If I add it to my account login, will they not grant the points?

Thanks!

Usually you have to be an authorized user to add another account. In this case, it sounds like your husband could open a login and then add your card, but you cannot add his card since you are not an AU. Alternatively he could add you as an AU. I don't believe this would affect the bonus mileage award. I plan to do the same thing.

Is there a clause that you have to keep this card open X months or they can take back your miles, as is the case on the Chase United card??

I would like to close this ASAP and move on to more rewards cards. thanks

You are free to close the account as soon as the points post.

thx

Yes

Business name = Your name

couldn't this be a potentially bad move? Any tax ramnifications of making up a Biz name? What about from AMEX?

orphanis said:Does any one know if I open one card for myself and one for my wife can I give AMEX one skymiles number for both application so I will have 35k miles on my account?

Your miles may not post since card account name and miles account name don't match.
