in fairness my pictures don't even really do it justice.

also, i read some of the things that come with the card and apparently there is some deal where if you buy tickets to an event but then can't go, they will refund you all of what you paid. i mean wtf? also, it already came activated. didn't have to call in.

"for a covered reason".   It is basically trip insurance.  I'd imagine it covers illness, work-related conflicts, etc.

SPG 30k will be back either today or tuesday.  10,000 Starpoints after the first purchase, and an additional 20,000 Starpoints after spending $5,000 within six months. The increased sign-up bonus will be valid from August 7 through September 4, 2012. So, if you've been waiting, now is the time. If you want a referral email from me please PM with your email address because I also get 5k SPG for anyone that signs up under a referral email. 
 :dance:

I'll need to contact amex to make sure my referral email will be for the new bonus. I'm going to send mrs. dave a referral for this and see if that flys. Then cancel my SPG amex that I've had for about 4 years and have her refer me back.

according to TPG the welcome bonus for the 30k SPG AMEX cannot be earned if you've had the card (not application) within 12 months.

I got it last year on my 2nd SPG AMEX (3rd including business one) despite having cancelled my 1st just a few weeks earlier.  Will probably try it again towards the end of this promo as I cancelled the 2nd SPG AMEX last week. 

steve dave, remind me to do this at the end of August.

word is AMEX is revamping their criteria.  It used to be 2 years app to app, there was speculation that that was being changed to 1 year, but according to TPG the terms of the new deal are the above.   Did you have 2 years between apps?

No, a little over a year.  Like Summer 2010 got first personal SPG AMEX (along w/business SPG AMEX), cancelled Summer 2011, got a 2nd Summer 2011, cancelled 2nd Summer 2012, now will get a 3rd Summer 2012.  Not saying they didn't eff up or something, but I got the 30K bonus Summer 2011.  They also mumped up and gave me an extra 10K during the summer 2010 spree.

I'm gonna give lunch today a shot. 

Anyone in 'ta want to join me for HopeWaitressCan'tReadPAK?

She could read.  I might try messaging Hyatt Passport and telling them I can't read and see if they'll give me 1000 points anyway.

Dear Mr. Reaper,

Thank you for your message, it is my pleasure to assist you.

In regard to your inquiry, I am more than happy to add the 1,000 points to your account for the expired Platinum Extras Dining Bonus certificate that had expired.

You will see this added the next time you log in online.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

i need one of these cards.  sd is a nazi, and i can't recall what etp's position is on weber, currie and the kstate cats.  if anyone with good antinazi creds wants to refer me, let me know before i go with one of these other jokers.

I assume by default I have the best anti-nazi credentials.
