I got an error when I submitted the application, but the status shows mine has been approved.
Another suggestion: Please save a snapshot of the screen ad for future reference. You may need it just in case you don't receive the $150 TigerDirect gift card.
FAQs: 1. I was approved for Business Gold Rewards Card from American Express®. How do I get the discount? We will email you a TigerDirect giftcard to the email address used to apply for the promotion once we receive verification from American Express of your approval. Make sure that you set your email application to allow emails from TigerDirect. com (simply add this domain to your Safe Senders list) so it doesn't end up in your SPAM folder. 2. When will I receive the email with my TigerDirect giftcard? We will email your giftcard to the email address used to apply for the promotion within 8 to 10 weeks after you are approved. 3. Can I take advantage of the offer if I am not a US resident? Unfortunately, the current AMEX® promotion is only available to US residents. Because of a growing number of recent inquiries, we are working on an offer for some our international customers and hope to have something in the near future.

Dang. Hot. A little strange is says $100 after 1st purchase in large graphic, but only 5,000 pts after 1st purchase in text below. Might be adding this one to my impending Bonus-O-Rama(end of page)...
EDIT: You have to copy/paste link.

There is computer error for this application. What does that mean?
I would also suggest you go through cardoffers.com. There is a 75 dollar bonus for this card. If you follow the link there also, there is also a 100 dollar statement credit after spending 100 dollars and 5000 points bonus after first purchase.

I don't think you can combine the two offers, though. I'd rather have the $150 from TigerDirect than the $75 from Cardoffers.

business card? what if I do not own business? can I still apply?
Crap! Just checked status online and they have two apps for me. The first was approved already. I wonder if I get two of these cards, and if so, double bonuses.

Can you please share the Check App Status URL?

My 2 cents: I don't trust tiger direct because they signed me up for magazines that were hard to cancel and rejected one of my rebates that was submitted correctly.
Please check the information and resubmit. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for applying.
tried 5-6 times and still app status page doesnt show anything

This is the best credit card deal I've seen in a while, basically a $250 sign up bonus. Wow, good job OP!
Also, if you like this one, check out the Free Flight to Europe thread with these two credit cards http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/messageview.php?catid=52&threadid=657653
Approved! I got the computer system error message, but then checked my application status using the link in theCompDude's post. They requested additional information there, I filled it out, and then was instantly approved. Score!
Can you move the credit line to your personal account when cancelling the card?

I got my card too. Can you check your account now? I have been charged $10 already for small business link fee. I've never seen such a fee on the application. What is that? Is there any way to get it back?
When did you guys apply that you got the card so quick?!?

This is my first AMEX card, so I am not an existing cardmember when I applied. I was charged even before I got the card.
